" You are so good to your sister." Jenna said as she and Sean rode the elevator down to the ground floor of their apartment building.

" Thanks." Sean said. He put his hands in his pockets and shifted away from her. He didn't usually get uncomfortable with people but something about the way she was looking at him was bothering him. And her constant flirting was annoying him.

" So how serious are you and your girlfriend?" Jenna asked as she smiled up at him.

" Serious." Sean said. He refused to look at her. She crossed her arms under her chest, forcing her breasts up more than they already were. He really didn't like girls like her. There was nothing real on her, from her tits, to her made up face, to her tan. He couldn't wait to get away from her.

" Well, if you ever want a little something on side, you can take my number." She said.

" No, thank you. You are a very beautiful, young woman but I love my girlfriend." Sean said, finally sparing her a glance. " Besides, shouldn't you be heartbroken over Murphy?" Jenna frowned and looked away.

" I am." She snapped.

Murphy stepped off the elevator and hurried down the hallway to Ariella's place. Our place. He corrected himself. It was their place. He had been giving her money for rent, helped paid utilities, for food, it was his place too, plus, he was not giving up on them. He would go after her and now that he was sure Sean was gone for the night, it was the perfect time to talk with her. Carefully, Murphy tried the door the apartment, thankful to find it unlocked. He pushed it open and walked in.

" Sean?" Ariella called out from her bedroom. " I'm changing then I'll be out!"

" Shit." He whispered. If she thought he was her brother, that meant Sean had pushed his flight back. That also meant Murphy, most likely, didn't have a lot of time to talk to her before big brother Sean came back to the apartment. Murphy shut and locked the door. He started towards her room.

" We are watching Saw tonight, all of them. I don't think I will cry during those because Murphy and I never watched them." She said as she turned around. Murphy was standing in her doorway. " What are you doing here?" She asked quickly.

" I need to talk to you." He said

" You can't be here." Ariella said as she started forward.

" I just need to say somethings, I need to explain, please." Murphy said while she passed him.

" No. I don't want to talk to you. I don't want to listen to anything you have to say." Ariella said.

" Ells!" Sean yelled as he walked into the apartment. " Why did you lock the door?" He stopped dead in his tracks at the sight of Murphy. " What the fuck!" He yelled.

" He just came to talk and he's leaving." Ariella said, rushing forward to try and calm her brother.

" I'm not leaving until I say what I came to say to you." Murphy said.

" You have nothing to say to her!" Sean said as he stalked towards Murphy.

" Sean, wait!" Ariella said.

" You can't stop me! She's an adult, Sean, treat her like one! If she wants to listen to me, she can!" Murphy yelled.

" Don't you dare try and tell me how to treat my sister! You, of all people, have no idea how to treat her so shut the fuck up!" Sean yelled back. He reached out and pushed Murphy as hard as he could. Ariella yelled as Murphy stumbled back, catching himself before he could fall all the way down.

" Fuck you!" Murphy yelled.

The two men rushed forward at once. Murphy's arms went around Sean's waist while Sean's went around the other man's shoulders. At once they started fighting, pushing and struggling against each other to bring the other one down. Sean punched Murphy in the side. Murphy groaned and landed a punch in Sean's stomach. Sean yelled, surprised that someone had actually hit him. Punch to the ribs, punch to chest.

" What are you doing! Stop it!" Ariella yelled, running towards them.

" You will never talk to her again!" Sean yelled.

" You aren't going to be here forever!" Murphy yelled back.

" Knock it off!" Ariella yelled as she threw her arms between them and tried to pull them apart. Krispy was barking and bouncing around, thinking they were playing.

" You sick bastard!" Sean yelled.

" Controlling dick!" Was Murphy's reply. He pushed against Sean with all his might, yanking out of the other man's grasp.

" You're a dick!" Sean yelled and launched himself forward. He swung out to punch Murphy again as Ariella stepped between them. She took the hit instead, falling back and straight into Murphy's arms.

" Ella!" Murphy yelled as he swept her up.

" Oh my God, Ells!" Sean said, coming towards her. She was staring wide eye as she held her cheek. Tears had started streaming down her as pain radiated across her face, spidering through her cheek.

" It's okay." She said quickly.

" I'm so sorry!" Sean said. Murphy spun around and started towards her room. " Put her down!"

" Why, so you can hit her again!" Murphy yelled.

" It was an accident." Ariella said, squeezing her eyes shut. The pain was unbelievable.

" Fuck you!" Sean yelled. Murphy set her down on her bed then dropped to his knees.

" Are you okay, Baby?" He asked.

" Let me get some ice." Sean said, hurrying out of her room.

" You need to leave." Ariella said weakly.

" Not until I make sure you're okay." Murphy said. He took a hold of her wrist. " Let me see your cheek, Babe."

" No, it's okay. It just hurts." Ariella said. " Really, really bad."

" It's not okay. You're crying." Murphy said. His warm fingers were massaging her wrist. His other hand came to rest against her knee.

" Put this on your face." Sean said as he rushed back in with a towel wrapped ice pack. Murphy dropped his hand from her arm, letting it come to rest against her other knee.

" Thanks." She said as she took it from him. She placed the pack against the fast growing bruise and whined while closing her eyes.

" Oh shit, Ariella, I'm so sorry." Sean said as he sat down beside her. She shook her head as Murphy squeezed her knees.

" It's okay." She said. Anger and annoyance was starting to overtake her pain. She frowned, opened her eyes and glared from one man to the next. " No, it's not. This won't have happen if you two hadn't been fighting like dickheads!"

" Well, he didn't need to come back here!" Sean said at the same time Murphy said,

" He started it!"

" Both of you need to leave me alone." She snapped as she stood up.

" Ells,"

" Babe."

" Don't call her that!" Sean snapped while both boys stood up next.

" Enough!" Ariella yelled, regretting it right away. She closed her eyes and gritted her teeth against the pain. " Enough." She repeated, only quieter. " Sean, you need to go to your room. Murphy, you need to leave. I need some time alone."

" Ariella," Sean started. She held up her right hand since her left one was still clutching the ice pack. She opened her eyes to meet his.

" Sean, please. I can't deal with you right now. I know you think are you just protecting me but I don't need it. I'm not 16 anymore, okay? I don't need you fighting my battles and knocking out my exs." Murphy's chest tighten to hear her call him her ex. She looked over at him. " And you. I don't even know what to say to you, honestly. I learned things about you today and I don't even know what to think. I need some time."

" Do you want me to leave tonight?" Sean asked her. He was supposed to fly out the following afternoon. He wasn't due on set until the next evening.

" No. I just need you to chill out. I mean, you were fighting him. You were punching him." She said.

" Yeah but he.." Sean said.

" I know what he did. I don't need reminders, okay?" She said. " Just go, both of you, and keep your hands to yourself while you're doing it."

With a heavy heart and a sigh, Murphy backed out of her room. Sean tried to reason with her again but Ariella continued to cut him off. She was done talking and Murphy knew it. What he couldn't understand was how Sean didn't know it. With a smug smile Murphy knew he shouldn't have, he thought how he understood her better than Sean did. But that smile faded as he left the apartment. He still hadn't been able to say anything he wanted to her. An idea struck him. There was something he could do, something from a bad 80's movie she loved and made him watch all the time. He'd take a scene and twist it, making it his own.

Ariella was sitting on the floor next to one of the balconies off their living room. Of course, her brother hadn't listened to her when she asked him to leave her alone. He was busy in the kitchen, making her some hot chocolate. Krispy was curled up against her legs. Ariella sighed, still holding the ice pack to her cheek while she watched the world go by.

" Ariella!" She lifted her head up from where it was resting against the glass and looked across the apartment to Sean who froze in his movements and frowned. " Ariella!" Murphy yelled again.

" That can't be him." Sean said. She pushed her blanket off, opened the balcony door more and stood up.

" Ariella!" She stepped out onto the balcony, knowing Sean was making his way to her quickly.

" Does this guy never give up!" He was snapping to himself.

" What are you doing?" Ariella yelled down to Murphy. He was standing across the street from their building.

" I lied to you and I want everyone to know! At the hospital, I really couldn't remember anything. I had a flashback to me standing somewhere, talking with a guy and looking at a picture..."

Sean came to her left side while Krispy came to the right. They listened as Murphy shouted up his entire story. People on the street were watching, with some yelling at him to shut up. Sean placed both hands on the railing and frowned down at him. Ariella listened with her heart slamming in her chest. He told her everything, he opened his entire life to her. The girls, the sex, the lies, his cheating, Jenna, it all came out. Sean was shaking his head while Ariella was trying hard not to cry.

" I'm an ass! A complete ass! I was going to sleep with you and leave you after the blind date!" Murphy yelled.

" That doesn't help your case!" Someone yelled to him.

" I wasn't lying when I said I love you! Yeah, when we started dating, I remembered some things about myself but not everything! When it all came back, I went to Jenna's place! I broke up with her! I decided right then and there that I was starting over! I was going to be the man you deserved and I am going to be that man, I promised! You'll see! I'll earn you back!" Murphy called out. Ariella reached up and wiped at her cheek. Sean, hearing her start to cry again, placed his hand against her lower back.

" I..." Her words were cut off by a sob.

" You don't need to say anything, okay! I am going to prove it! I'm going to prove everything to you! I love you, Ariella!" With that, he turned and started walking away.
