however, own Edna and Tom. A/N: Okay, this does get pretty violent, but
that doesn't mean we are like that. Promise! I was inspired to write this

-Flashback-
"You filthy, rotten, little piece of shit!" Edna screamed running through the house after Connie.
"Please, I'm sorry. Please don't hurt me!" Edna caught up with her and grabbed her by the hair. Connie fell off balance and Edna drug her to the living room by her hair. She shoved her into the wall and Connie felt warm blood trickle down her forehead. Edna grabbed Connie's arm and spun her around. As she spun her, Connie's shoulder popped out of the socket. She screamed in pain, but Edna didn't stop. She punched her in the face seven times. Connie was bleeding all over the place. Edna picked her up and set her on her feet. She grabbed both arms and shook Connie as she screamed about how she was good for nothing for about five minutes. Then, she grabbed Connie's hair again and drug her to the bathroom. She picked a belt up off the floor and whipped Connie's back like forty times. Then, she grabbed Connie's hand and threw her into her bedroom. Connie limped over to her bed crying and bleeding. She buried her face in the pillow and cried herself to sleep, praying for the day that her dad realized that her injuries weren't from hockey. "Hello? Space Cadet..." Julie said as she snapped her fingers right in Connie's ear.
"Huh?" Connie was almost startled to find herself in the mess hall. Guy was sitting next to her with his arm around her shoulder and Julie and Adam were sitting on the other side of the table.
"I asked you if you wanted to go to the mall later," Julie said looking a little concerned. She wasn't the only one. Everybody seemed a little worried.
"Connie, are you okay?" Adam asked.
"Yeah, fine. Um, sure. the mall sounds great," she said trying to smile. "I'll be right back," Connie said running out of the mess hall. She ran all the way back to her dorm and began to cry into the bedspread. There was a knock on the door.
"Connie, are you okay?" came Guy's voice. "Can I come in?" She walked over and unlocked the door. When he saw her, he knew she'd been crying. "Oh my God, what's wrong?" She let him wrap her up in his arms and she rested her head against his chest.
"Nothing really. I just. I just had. kind of a. flashback," she said trying to find the words to describe this incredibly vivid memory.
"About your mom?" he asked.
"No, about Edna, my evil stepmonster," she said.
"Oh." he trailed, unsure of what to say. Connie's cell phone rang and they both jumped. Guy let go of her and she pulled the phone out of her pocket.
"Hello?"
"Hey hun," came her dad's voice.
"Hey dad," she said. "What's up?"
"I was wondering if you'd come home this weekend. I miss you. It gets lonely living all alone." Connie sighed. She felt a little guilty about leaving her dad. She thought it was her fault he was alone. Her mother had died giving birth to her and now Edna was in prison. The least she could do was go and visit the father who's life she had ruined.
"Alright, I'll come over Friday night and leave Saturday night. sound good?"
"Okay, hun. I'll see ya later. Love you."
"I love you, too." Connie hung up the phone and looked up at Guy. "I gotta go home tomorrow night."
"Okay. but how will I survive without you?" Guy joked.
"I'm sure you'll live," she said smiling.
"C'mon, let's go back to the mess hall," he said taking her hand. They walked back to the mess hall and Connie had almost completely forgotten about her flashback. Keyword being 'almost.' A/N: Hey!! Wasn't that great? Yea Katie wrote that and I loved it. Yea... keep reading and you must review ... DO IT NOW!!!! ~Agent M~
