Donna was packing up Ross's stuff into a black binbag. Ross was following along after her with his hands to his head.
"Donna PLEASE! I can explain everything! I wasn't doing the driving that day, it were someone else, I swear to you!"
"I don't want to hear it"
She slung the binbag of belongings at him.
"Just get out"
Ross looked at her, met her eyes, then pleaded with her.
"You changed me...you did...please don't do this...please don't bin me off"
"I already have"
Ross screwed his face up at her, then he opened the front door and let it slam behind him. Donna started to sob and sat on the bottom of the stairs. How could have she been so stupid? Not only has he carjacked Laurel in the past, he has hurt Chas as well.
She was well rid.
Ross feeling completely gutted, clutched his binbag of stuff as he walked up Main Street. Aaron Dingle had completely ruined everything for him. So much for trying to make right his life. He turned and glared towards Smithy Cottage. Aaron would get his...especially of what he knew about him...
Aaron was relaxing in front of the TV. Paddy went to feed the animals. Rhona snatched up the TV remote and switched the telly off.
"Oi you...I were watching that!"
"I'm not happy about earlier...Donna left here in a right state"
"and I'm bothered about that because...?"
Rhona sighed and tried to make him see sense.
"Aaron...I KNOW what happened to your Mum is still very much in the forefront for you...but you have to move on...she has"
"What? By her running off to Cornwall to be with that scumbag dad of Ross's...don't make me laugh"
"They're married"
"Makes no difference...yeah, I wanted Mum to have a fresh start...but now...I think she should be here where she belongs..."
Paddy came back in and sat down. Aaron wondered how much of the conversation he overheard. Rhona stood up and turned.
"Try talking sense into him Paddy...I'm gonna see to Leo"
Aaron shook his head at the vet. Paddy knew not to question him. Infact, Aaron made it easier for him and let him off.
"I'm going out..."
"I thought you were watching this?"
"I've changed my mind...don't be waiting up"
Aaron took off and headed to the pub. It was good of Paddy to put him up, but he'd rather have a place of his own, and in a village like this and with money, that was going to be a big fat no.
"OI! YOU!"
Aaron had to smile, it was Ross's voice and he sounded right pissed off, Aaron turned and pulled a 'not bothered' face at him.
"What is it Barton? I've got better things to do than talking to scumbag lowlife like you"
"You did this...you told Donna that I WAS doing the driving that day..."
"Ohhhhh, Donna's gone and chucked you out, has she...don't blame her"
Aaron went to turn around, but Ross practically launched himself at him and knocked him flying to the ground. Aaron was on his back and Ross was over the top of him pinning him down.
"You THINK I'm just gonna let this lie? Think on Dingle, because making an enemy out of me is something you are gonna sorefully regret"
Aaron tried to force Ross's hands off him.
"What are you going off about?"
It was time for Ross to smirk and let go of his grip as he stood up, Aaron followed suit brushing himself down. He looked up to Ross.
"Well, come on then, big man, what is it you've got that's gonna make me quiver in my boots"
Ross leaned in to him and whispered into his ear.
"Poor Frank...what ever became of him..."
Aaron was pretty much shaken to hear his Mum's nutter Ex boyfriends name coming out of Ross's mouth.
Ross was walking away with that smug look. Aaron called out after him.
"What to you mean by THAT? ROSS!"
But he was already out of earshot.
