Adam came soon enough, Brax and Casey there already when he turned up. "What the hell are you playing at?" he hissed at Brax, getting extremely close to him.
"I could ask you the same question," Brax scoffed. "Tell you what, you leave this town and we won't have a problem."
"You're not one for making deals here, are you?" Jamie shouted from his chair. Ellah rolled her eyes and kicked Jamie's ankle. "OW!"
"Shut up," Ellah muttered.
"So, how about it?" Brax asked.
"How about you release Jamie here, and I won't split your brother's skull," Adam growled.
"Brax, let me take it from here," Ellah said quietly, gently tugging Brax's arm back. Brax stepped back obediently and Ellah stood in front of her dad.
"Get away," Adam muttered under his breath.
"I'm not afraid of you," Ellah said cockily, raising an eyebrow. "I know you killed my mum."
"You have no idea what you're talking about!" Jamie yelled. Ellah rolled her eyes again and glanced over her shoulder.
"Kyle, do me a favour and shut him up," she sighed, flicking her hair behind her shoulder. Kyle grabbed Jamie's neck and pulled his head back, so he was in an uncomfortable chokehold. "Anyway. I have all the evidence and all you need is a trial. I'm not a snitch – Jamie, don't even bother...but if you do anything else to this family all I need is a quick phonecall to the cops. Dad, I suggest you get the hell out of this bay and leave the Braxtons alone."
"You're a little brat," Adam said darkly, getting closer to Ellah. But Brax and Casey both rushed forward to block Adam's way, creating a human shield.
"You've taught me so well," Ellah blinked innocently, making Adam's blood boil.
"JAMIE!" he suddenly barked. "We're going." Kyle threw back Jamie's head and he gasped for breath dramatically, choking on his own oxygen.
"Don't be such a girl," Kyle spat, making Jamie give Kyle a death stare as he spluttered. He stood up and joined his dad.
"We will leave, fine. But this is not the last time you see us," Adam threatened coldly to Brax, Ellah, Casey and Kyle.
"I won't hold a candle it," Ellah smirked, her arms crossed.
"You can leave now," Brax muttered.
"Good bye," Kyle falsely smiled.
"Take a number!" Casey waved. Adam and Jamie both gave an evil glare before storming out. As soon as they were in the car and out of sight, Ellah hugged Brax, kissed Casey and even high fived Kyle.
"There you are!" Skyler exclaimed, as the four walked into Angelo's that evening.
"We did it," Ellah laughed as Skyler got up and gave Brax a huge hug.
"You got rid of him?" Skyler frowned, her head lifting off Brax's chest.
"Yep, easy," Casey grinned.
"A little too easy, don't you think?" Kyle said quietly. Everyone stared at him.
"Oh don't say that," Skyler groaned, beginning to get nervous again.
"Why the hell would you put a downer on what we just did?!" Casey asked in disbelief.
"Yeah Kyle that's not really helping right now," Brax told him sternly.
"Whatever," Kyle muttered, leaving them alone. Little did they know, Kyle was right. It was way too easy...
