All Mixed Up Pt2
I took some advice and reformatted the story so please let me know if you know a better way to make a layout seeing as I hate this layout.
Right now we pick up were we left off in the main story with Ellie still sitting in shock and a somewhat awkward silence.
Main Story
"Um...Um..." was all Ellie could manage at the moment as she was still in shock and a little confused.
"I 've been in rehab for six months and this is all I get? Some best friend you turn out to be." Craig said sarcastically.
"Sorry this was just sort of you know unexpected but how are doing I mean when did you get here?
"Well the good people back at rehab saw I was pretty healthy and decided to cut me loose. I just got back here this morning. I'm staying at a hotel until I can get in contact with Joey." Craig said
"Well congratulations Craig I'm happy for you man and it's good to see you again but we were kinda headed somewhere so if you can spare us an hour or two then you guys can catch up later if that's cool." Jessie said a little harshly.
"Jessie." Ellie said sternly shooting him a look. "You know Craig you can come if you want were going to a new club downtown nothing special."
"No. No. I 'm not the dancing type anyway. You just go I'll catch up with you later El." Craig said.
"Yeah I'll sit this one out too guys seeing as Craig doesn't have a car and I don't think he would enjoy walking home so later." Marco said noticing the tension
The situation was getting tense as Craig and Jessie eyed each other a little.
"Alright Craig see you around." Ellie said
As Craig and Marco walked away so did Ellie and Jessie.
"May I ask what the hell was that back there?" Ellie asked
"What? We needed to get somewhere and we really didn't have time to listen to his life story I was just speeding things up." Jessie said nonchalantly
"Listen Jessie me and Craig are through I'm over him so you have nothing to worry about. Our relationship is strictly on a friendship basis." Ellie said
"Well forgive me El if I don't even want it to be that. I told you that guy is nothing but a manipulator. He uses people and he's used you before. I just don't want to see you get hurt by that guy again especially when were together. He almost broke us up once and I'll be damned if he comes between us again."Jessie said
"Well you don't have to worry at all. There's nothing going on between me and Craig. I've learned from that mistake already. Besides I don't have to see him very much anyway. It's not like we have to share the same house or anything."
Side Story
The side story picks up after school at the dot were Peter and Darcy are spending there remaining time together before Peter's mom ships him off to boarding school in three days.
"I seriously think I bombed that english test today. I'm just so stressed." Darcy said
"I know. I completely understand this is just as hard for you as it is for me but were going to get through this. I mean the boarding school isn't that far away I mean I can save up some money and come and see you every once in a while."
"You better." Darcy said a little pouty.
"Don't worry I will no matter what my mom says."
"Oh really?" says a voice sternly behind Peter and Darcy
"Mom?" What are you doing here?" Peter asks surprised
"Looking for my son who I find is deliberately disobeying me. What are you doing with her I specifically told you to stay away from her." said Ms. Hatzilakos
"Mom she has a name and it's bad enough you're shipping me off to some boarding school but I'm not going to let you or dad dictate who I see." Peter said
"Is that so. Okay Peter parties over say goodbye to your friend and lets go." Ms. Hatzilakos
Peter then turns to Darcy.
"Don't worry I'll call you later I just have to get her off my back. Peter says
"Sure just don't push her please. Making her angrier wont exactly do us any favors." says Darcy
"Right I'll keep that in mind. Can I get a kiss to tide me over till tonight?" Peter says with somewhat puppy dog eyes which Darcy is a sucker for.
"Sure."
"Peter now." Ms. Hatzilakos says cutting them off.
Peter rushes and gives Darcy a quick peck and leaves.
"I'll call you." Peter says as he left
"The things I do for love." Darcy whispered
Darcy then quickly caught herself realizing what she had just said. Did I just say love? No I can't. Or could I? Could I really be falling for Peter Stone? This is all just happening way to fast.
She wasn't sure if it was love but there was one undeniable fact she was certainly feeling something for Peter Stone.
Main Story
3 hours later.
Ellie comes through the door exhausted from her dance session with Jessie. She had to give him credit though he was better than she thought but he was still in serious need of lessons.
Just then Ellie crashes down on the couch too tired to make it all the way to her room. And THUMP!.
"Ouch!"
"Ahh!" Ellie then let out a scream as a voice just came from the darkness.
"Ellie? Ellie calm down it's me Craig."
"Craig? Oh my god give me a heart attack why dont you?"
"Sorry I must have fallen asleep while I was moving my stuff in." Craig said
"Hold on what?" Ellie asked
"I'm taking Dylan's room while he's gone." Craig replied
"So you're staying here?" Ellie asked again
"Yep. Joey oked some i'm crashing here for now."
Wow just when I thought that things couldn't get worse. Damn it. Fate 2 Ellie Nash 0.
