-----
The school cleared out and Ellie waited for Drew, he showed up and she waited for the halls to be clear in case he through a scene. "What's going on Ellie you have been ignoring me all day," he said nervous. "I have just had a lot of stuff on my mind, I've thought about it and I need a break from all of this."
"WHAT!" Drew's voice echoed through the building, "You're saying you want to break up with me!" "No I just need some time to myself." She started to walk away but Drew pulled her around. "Why? You need me and I need you what's there to think about?" Ellie cleared her throat "You hit me." Drew took a step back and his eyes filled with tears. "I said I was sorry, and you said it was okay." Tears started to form in her eyes "you say that now but how do I know it won't happen later?" Drew started to get really angry "You would dare question me, so let me get this straight you are afraid I will do this again."
He raises his hand and slaps her. Ellie had enough "We are done for good." She walks towards the door and Drew chases her "No!" (He pushes her out the door) You can't leave me."
Just then Sean Cameron who was sitting at a table outside see's her fall but thinks they are kidding and can't hear because he has his head phones on but continues to watch them.
Drew grabs her arm "You need me." Rolls her sleeves up, "look at those cuts they are almost healed because of me." He thought this would convince her to stay but she just tried to get up but he pushes her down.
Sean takes his head phones off to hear her crying and see her eyes full of tears he started to walk over. Drew grabs Ellie's arm and starts digging into her cuts and scratches all of them open. "Hey what are you doing?" Sean said running over. Ellie looked down at her arm was bleeding and she was hysterical. "Stay out of this I am showing my girlfriend whose boss." Just as Sean got to the stair case Drew takes Ellie and throws her down the stairs, she bangs her head on the stair case and is knocked out.
"Get the fuck out of here now!" Sean yelled. Drew looks at Ellie lying motionless on the floor and runs away in shock. Sean grabs his cell phone "hey Craig I need you to get to Degrassi now." Sean tries to wake Ellie up, but she won't. Craig finally arrives and sees Sean trying to wake Ellie up. "Oh my god did Drew do this?" Craig asked. Sean nodded his head and took his bandanna off his head and wrapped it around her arm. "Should we go to the hospital or back to my house?" Sean asked. "um... I think back to your house first and if its really bad then we will go to the hospital." They put Ellie into Craig's car and go to Sean's apartment.
Sean carries her into his apartment and lays her on the couch. "Okay you get ice and I'll get peroxide and something for her arm." Sean said in a panic. "Yeah good idea should I call Ashley?" Sean shook his head "I want to see how she does and if it is serious we will get help." Sean put some ice on her head and Craig bandaged her arm. Ellie started to wake up. "Ellie are you okay?" Craig asked. "Huh, where am I?" She looked around the room, "Sean's house." She sat up worried "What happened?" Sean sat down next to her "Drew, well he, you know." Ellie shook her head and laid her head back down. Craig looked at her worried "you're not going to go back to him are you?" Ellie started to cry "I don't know," Sean got closer to her "you cant he could really hurt you even kill you." Ellie got a little frustrated, "You don't know me and its not that easy for me okay."
She stood up and started to head for the door, "Ellie you can't run from this," Craig said. "Just do me a favor Craig and don't tell Ashley I have had her and Paige breathing down my neck as it is." Ellie started running out the door, "Ellie stop!" Sean called after her. She started running down the street and he followed. Just than she tripped and looked up to see Drew turning the corner. "Ellie I-I" he started to stutter.
