Summary: She hates him. There is no other way to describe the emotion at the mere mention
of his name. But why? Why do she hate him so much? Its up to the gang to find out
when his visit changes Liz's behavior drastically.
To Believe
Liz sat on her bed trying not to hear the argument in the next room, but it was impossible. Covering her head with her pillow didn't seem to keep out the loud voices.
"You can't be serious?" Nancy demanded. "How can you even think of letting him stay here?"
"Come on sweetheart. He's my brother. What was I suppose to say when he asked can he stay a couple of weeks? No?" He asked defending himself.
"Yes…damn it!" She yelled pacing the room. "I don't trust him Jeff. I just don't."
"He's done nothing to deserve this…"
"God…" She murmured, covering her eyes as she sat down on the bed. "I know… there's just something about him… something that make's me…"
"Okay…okay… look. I'll call him back and tell him he can't stay here if that will make you happy." He reassured her.
"No…. I'm just over reacting. He's your brother, he can stay." She said, but a part of her still wasn't comfortable with him staying under her roof. It wasn't anything that he'd said or done. It was just a feeling she got whenever she was around him. The feeling that they only knew a small part of him. That underneath the smile, the hugs and the laughter hides an angry, cruel man.
Liz felt the fears slide down her face as she forcefully pushed her pillow into her mouth trying to block out the sobs raking her body. She didn't want him her. Family or not he was self-center, arrogant and he made it his mission whenever he visited to make her life a living hell. "Why was he coming here now?" She demanded wiping the tears from her face. "Well this visit is going to be different. I'm not a little girl anymore." She reassured herself. "I'll be damn if I let that jerk get to me." Now all she has to do is tell her self that over and over again until she actually believed it.
