Loving The Wrong *Waterloo Road*

💎001💎

Ella woke and groaned. She had a bad headache and a hangover. She had been drinking to forget about her break up. She hated how she had given her heart to someone for them to rip it out.

Ella walked downstairs. Rachel sighed. "I heard you coming in at 3am. Ella you've got to stop this. It isn't right," she said as she handed her daughter a cup of coffee.

"Just back off would you? I'm 17. Let me live my life," Ella said. She sighed. "Go and fuss over Alexis. She's the one about to pop out a kid."

Rachel rolled her eyes. "Ella. Please. I don't need this stress right now. Go and get dressed," she said.

***
Ella had decided to go into town. She was feeling down and since she had finished school, none of her friends had bothered with her. She felt unloved and unwanted. Especially since Rachel was spending most of her time with Alexis.

Ella got a text from her sister:

Come home! Gotta ask you something - Alexis x

Ella sighed. She didn't want to be around anyone. She knew her sister had her life all figured out. But Ella didn't. She didn't know what she wanted from life.

Ella went home and saw her sister. "What's wrong?" She asked as she looked at Max. "Can feel the tension," she mumbled.

Max rolled his eyes and walked out. Alexis sighed. "We're not in a good place right now El. He's never around and we're always arguing."

Ella shrugged. "What can I do about that? Lex, I'm 17. I don't know about bad relationships. My only relationship ended last night. After I found out that he was using me to make his wife jealous."

Alexis sighed. "I noticed mum has been giving you a hard time. How do you feel about that?" She asked.

"Rubbish. I don't know what to do," Ella said. She wiped away her tears. "I'm 17 years old. How do I deal with the fact I don't know what to do with my life? You've got a job. I don't."

"Calm down. It'll come to you. You're an amazing girl El. You'll find out what you're calling in life is."

***
Ella had decided to go out again. She didn't care what Rachel said. She needed to forget everything.

Ella found herself in a club. She ordered some vodka shots with her fake ID. "Why are you in here?"

Ella knew that voice anywhere. Max Tyler. Her sisters boyfriend. She turned to him. "Stalking me now? What would my sister think?" She asked.

Max smirked. He got himself a drink and sat with Ella.

***
Ella and Max walked outside. Max grabbed her and pinned her against the wall. The two of them began kissing. Max pulled away.  "I'll take you to mine."

Ella woke the next morning in a strange bed. She sat up and realised where she was. She was in Max's bed. Ella got a text on her phone and all she could think about was

What had she done?
