~Matthew and Mike stand face to face~

Mike: She will be mine and YOU won't get in my way.
Matthew: I Can't believe you! You barely even know her!
Mike: So? When girls look at me they swoon but when they look at you..

~He looked him up and down and laughed~

Mike: All they see is... a dumb, arrogant nerd. Yeah! Thats what you are.

~Matthew clenches his fists~

Peter: Mike just shut up man-
Mike: No Peter! Don't tell me to shut up. I could snap your neck in a second if I wanted to!

~Mike grabs Matthews chin and sees a tear running down his face~

Mike: See! I told you, asshole..
Peter: Mike that is enough!
Mike: *laughs and looks at Matthew* I'm not done with you yet..

~Mike turns his back and starts walking away~
~Matthew looks at Mike and runs at him, dead-legging him~

Mike: You little..!

~Mike grabs Matthew and throws him to the ground and pins him down~
~Matthew punches him in the jaw while still pinned to the ground~
~The store manager walks outside~

SM: QUIT IT!

~The SM got them apart with the help of Peter~
~Peter brings Matthew over to a bench to sit~
~Matthews face was all bruised up with a broken hand~
~Mike had one bruise on his face and a bloody nose~

Peter: *whispers to Matthew* Your lucky Ella left..

~Ella sits in front of Amys house, thinking of how to tell her what happened with Jordan and her mom~
~Amy looks out her window and sees Ella in the driveway~
~Amy runs out of the house~

Amy: Ella? Are you alright?

~Ella starts crying~

Amy: Ella?

~Ella hugs her tightly and cry's in her arms~
~Amy hugs her back and they just stand there for 5 minutes hugging~

Amy: What happened...?
Ella: I-I.. my brother.. *she bursts again into tears*
Amy: Come on.. lets go inside and talk..

~They go into her house and sit in Amys room~
~Ella tells her what happened with Jordan and her mom~
~She also tells her about Matthew and how he saved her but left out the part about the arcade~

Amy: Thank goodness Matthew was there! You could have been killed Ella!
Ella: I wasn't thinking, I just wanted to get away from everything! But I still think of what would have happened if Matthew got hurt instead of me.. He could have died and it would've been my fault!
Amy: Don't think about that now, its all over, your safe and he's alive.
Ella: What am I gonna do about my parents?
Amy: Well they will eventually find out it was Jordan, not you.
Ella: How long will that take..?
Amy: No one knows.. we just have to hope for the best...

~Ellas phone starts ringing and its her mom~

Amy: You gonna answer it?
Ella: ...

~Ella Answers~

Mom: Ella! Finally you picked up.. I'm so sorry.. please come home.
Ella: And why should I if you dont even believe me?!
Mom: Ella.. We sent Jordans car in to the police to see if they could find anything..
Ella: And?
Mom: They did find his fingerprints but its his car so that didn't really matter, but they found a piece of wood from the bat and it had someones blood on it..
Ella: Mhm.. keep going.
Mom: It's was his.. Jordans, I'm very sorry Ella.. I just.. the video looked so much like you..
Ella: ...
Mom: Please come home Ella.. I miss you..

~Ella hangs up and gets up and leaves for the door~

Amy: Where are you going?
Ella: Home..

~Ella gets in the car and drives to her house~
~Her mom was waiting in the front~
~Ella parks her car quickly and jumps out and hugs her mom~

Mom: I'm sorry..
Ella: I love you mom..
Mom: I love you too..

~Matthew sits in a hospital bed
~Peter sits in one of the seats next to him~

Matthew: D-did you ever tell Ella?
Peter: No.. Do you want me to?
Matthew: No. I dont want her to know..
Peter: Why? Mike is such a douche and he doesn't deserve her.
Matthew: She might think I'm lying.. you never know..
Peter: If she was a real friend she would believe you, not someone she just met!

~Matthew sits in silence~

Matthew: *thinks: What will I do...*
