Sorry this took so long, I had a drama essay to write that took hours, I still think the essay is complete rubbish but I really wanted to update this, so I'll improve the essay when we get it back for the second draft, but seriously, I think I've had enough of Bugsy Malone to last me a lifetime, and I have 2 hours of rehearsals for it tomorrow.
Disclaimer: I do not own High School Musical in any way, if I did none of the characters would be underused, and just to be on the safe side, I do not own Bugsy Malone either, it's mentioned above, I do own the characters of Ellie and Tyler.
"What are you two doing?" Asked a voice from behind me.
Troy and I were looking out into the garden, not speaking, just being, the voice made both of us jump.
"Are you trying to scare me to death?" I questioned, turning around to face my brother.
"What's he doing here?" Tyler quizzed, I hadn't noticed that he was angry.
"I brought Gabi ice cream," Troy answered confidently.
Tyler looked at me for confirmation, when I nodded he turned back to Troy and continued speaking, "You don't get to do this, you don't get to break up with her then hang around like a bad smell, you don't get to hurt her and have her forget it all on your say so, you mess with my sister you mess with me."
"Ty, it's ok." I tried telling him.
"No, Gabi, it's not ok," Tyler stated, still glaring at Troy. " Why are you letting him do this, he's not worth it."
"You don't understand," I half-complained.
"No Gabi, you don't understand," Tyler interrupted. "He didn't see what he did to you just a few weeks ago, I came home that weekend to a normally happy sister that was barely speaking, I'm not going to let him do that to you again,"
"I won't," Troy shouted, "I'll never make that mistake again."
I heard footsteps on the stairs, Tyler hadn't answered, my parents must have heard Troy shouting.
"What's going on in here?" Ellie asked as she ran into the room, "Your parents are getting worried, Brie."
"Ellie, downstairs now," Tyler ordered, then gave me a look telling me to go with her.
"I'm not going anywhere," I spoke with newfound strength.
"You can't seriously be considering giving him enough chance?" Tyler half-asked.
"Yeah, I am, but he has a lot to prove first, and your not helping." I argued.
"You can't trust him." Tyler inputted.
"Yes she can." Troy defended.
I looked over to Ellie who had disobeyed Tyler and stayed, she was looking in awe from one to the other.
"Nobody ever fought like this at home." She finally said, more to herself than to anyone in the room. "All everybody here does is fight."
"It's healthy to fight sometimes, El." I explained. "We all need to let our emotions out."
"Mom always said we should talk, she said fighting will be the world's demise." Ellie answered.
"Well your precious mother's not around any more so what she said isn't worth much" Tyler snapped.
Ellie ran, seconds later we heard the front door slam.
"Thanks a lot." I said sarcastically to my brother before running to follow her.
I heard footsteps behind me and turned, thinking Tyler was following, but it was Troy.
"I don't think he meant it Gabs, brother's are idiots." He tried defending Tyler.
"Oh he meant it, he never got on with Brent, and this is the one way he can still get to him." I spoke as I continued running.
