Heeeeyyyyy okay so, welcome back to the story. Sorry it's been away so long. I've changed fandoms and I have other open stories and basically just general laziness. Basically, sorry.. haha. Anyway, here's the next chapter. I haven't seen any recent Emmerdale episodes so things are definitely going to be off. Tell me what you think :] (ps sorry the chapter is so short. This one was going to be short originally as there wasn't much Debbie was upset with her about.)

The bench is cold.

And I wish I had brought a blanket.

But I didn't, so I suffer in soft shivers and chattering teeth as I hit play on the next tape.

Debbie sighs.

"Tape 5. Chastity Dingle. There's only one reason on this tape. I've forgiven you for everything else between us. But the one thing I wont forget. You cheated."

Wait, what? Cheated at what? Jenga?

"Or rather.. you helped Cameron cheat."

I feel stupid.

"There was one thing you know I had going for me, one thing that actually made me happy again, and you ripped that right out of my hands."

I shift slightly, and try to keep my legs moving. It helps to keep warm.

"How could you? I mean.. you're my aunt. You're supposed to.. to be there when I need help and listen to me talk about my boyfriend problems. Not date my boyfriend while I am. How, Chastity, how?!"

I trusted Chastity at one point too.

There was so much going on inside their family that I didn't realize.

Debbie's voice was cold.

"It's not that I don't trust you. I just can't forgive you. Try living with that. Knowing someone hasn't forgiven you.. It hurts."

It scared me to think Debbie could be that cold.

"And when Cameron kept us hostage in the Woolpack.."

Woah, what?!

"You kept me safe and tried to save me and I thank you for that. Hearing you yell 'Debbie! He's got Debbie, she's still down there. Help her!' It gave me comfort, and the strength to break his grip on my leg. Thank you."

I grab both my arms and rub them, trying to relieve the cold.

"But it doesn't change things. What you did hurt, Chastity. You betrayed me."

She probably doesn't forgive me for cheating with Cain.

Oh God, that's what my tape is, oh God.

"So here's my lesson for you, Chas. Don't cheat. Notice when others have it good and let them know. Don't take away their good."

I breathe in deep.

The next tape could be mine.

"Tape number 6. You're next, dad."

The breath is let out and I begin to breathe normally again.

I think I know what his tape is.

But I have to listen, for Debs.

By now the rain has stopped, but I decide that it's too cold to continue on outside.

I make my way to the bus station and wait for a bus going anywhere.

I get on after ten minutes, and sit in a seat near the middle.

The bus is warm, and warms up my body.. just not my spirits.

It's time for the next tape.
