"STEPHAN HAY GET YOUR ARSE HERE NOW!"
Stephan had just woken from his slumber of his bed. He was having a nice dream where him and Doug were gone off on holidays.. Well he didn't know where but they were on a beach so he must've been on holidays.
"STE NOW!"
Ste jumped with fright he quickly threw his dressing gown on and ran to Amy thinking that Lucas was hurt of the place was on fire.
"Whats wrong" Ste looked at Amy panicing.
A piece of paper was shoved into Stephen's face.
"This is what's wrong Ste our 'new' landlord had upped the rent by ninety pounds! We don't have that kind of money!"
Ste grabbed the bill and looked mortified at the paper.
Everything flashed into his mind remenber the month of absolutely torture that his new ex lover landlord told him the tremendous news of him owning Ste's flat now.
Brendan Brady.
It was one month since Brendan told Ste of him being the landlord and Amy and Ste were expecting the worse by the end of the month so they greatly prepared themselves. Amy got extra shifts at the coffee house and Micheala took care of the kids even she didn't want Brendan to win or worse evict them. Ste made up a new plan with his boyfriend…well ex boyfriend Doug..i'll explain this in a minute. Ste made a plan about at night they opened night food so drunken people would come in and order whatever they wanted. Of course this meaning that they would destroy some stuff as well.
I guess your wondering about Doug eh? He couldn't handle the pressure of Ste's ex. He immediately regretted standing up to him with Riley at Brendan's club. It was impossible for Doug to have some "alone" time with Ste. When they were at the deli Brendan would waltz in and order food, ironically it was whenever Doug and Ste had some intimate moments. Whenever they were at Ste's place he would just open the door and walk straight in at them when they were half dressed, one day he saw Ste naked and burst into tears laughing but never taking his eyes off him. And finally whenever they were at Doug's place Ste's phone would go off and Brendan would ask him questions resulting in Ste going home to see the problem.
So Doug had to leave but him and Ste were mates now just friends but Doug swore that if Ste was in any trouble Doug would be right there beside him, he thought it was best for Ste to sort himself out and then they could get back .
Ste looked at Amy absolutely terrified with what he should do?
"We were expecting this Amy." Ste looked at the floor guilty because he knew this was all because of him scamming Brendan.
Amy glared at Ste "No Ste this is because he is just trying to find away to get revenge , I mean no offence Ste but didja' really think you would get away with 80'000 and of all people but Brendan!"
"Look I'll call Doug he'd help us wont he?"
"No I got a better idea I'm ringing Padraig"
Ste looked at Amy puzzled "Who's Padraig Ames?"
"Ste seriously you never even checked to see our neighbours, you know Padraig the 30 year old man beside us god Ste how could you forget him?"
Ames picked up the phone and dialled a number.
"Hello Padraig, Hi it's Ames, Ya im good too and yourself? Nawh that's so sweet your missus will be trilled, Ya im ringin' to ask you did you get this months rent?"
Muffling was heard in the background.
Ames eyes widened "You have got to be kidding me! 40 quid off!….. no no its just he gave us and extra ninety"
The muffling got louder through the phone, "Yeah I know its ridiculous, yeah I know it is because of the history between them but what can we do? No no padraig we don't need help honestly but thank you anyway"
Amy was listening intently
"Ok fine but only twenty and I mean it…ok fine thanks Padraig im so jealously that your sweetheart has you bye!"
Amy hung the phone up and her expression changed to Ste, she looked like she was about to explode!
"He's given Padraig an extra week to pay the rent and! 40 quid off dyo know what this means Ste?"
Ste shook his head absolutely terrified.
"It means Brendan is taking money off Padraig and putting it on us!"
Ste ran into his bedroom and quickly got changed and ready for today.
He walked to the door and opened it.
"Ste where are you going?" Ames questioned Ste.
Ste stopped and looked at Amy
"I'm going to go talk to him"
Ames slammed the door to stop Ste forcefully, Ste jumped back Ste raised her hands and blocked Ste.
"NO your not! It's what he wants Ste to see you crack and then take the piss outta you! We can get through this with Doug and Padraig's help"
Ste stared at Amy amazed at how stupid she was.
"Are you serious you think he's gonna just go ' oh I might as well stop now' Ste tried to do an Irish impersonation "No he wont he'll just make the rent worse and worse and by you know it Padraig will be paying his rent free and we'll be paying his!"
Ste's phone went off.
Doug.
"Hi Ste sorry this has to be quick but I'm really full up here and I need your help please I know its your day off and I'm sorry but I'm really…..yes yes its coming now sorry…I gotta go bye"
Ste looked at Amy pleading her.
"FINE but you better get back here and promise me that if he goes to the deli you wont mention the rent at all just say that it's fine and there's no problem"
Ste stared at Ames.
He left the room and went outside.
Ames went to turn the kettle on and sighed.
"Why did he have to work in Chez Chez WHY!"
