A Big Change 2
The two men were dancing with stunning women, Ellie watched as they winked at each other from across the room.
After an hour admiring the dancers a tall brunette walked over to Ellie, she was an ex best friend from school. They had just grown apart but Hayley and Jem were still friends which might have been her reason for being in the party. "Ellie it’s nice to see you, you look... great" she turned around and giggled to her friends. Ellie glared at Jem and then said " Yeah you look... nice to" she then burst out with an enormous laugh; she didn’t like to be bullied. Jem looked dumb struck and then whispered something to her friends who started giggling again "what time are you leaving to get back to your street corner then?" Ellie was startled, she felt a tear roll down her cheek after a hard day this is just what she needed. Luckily they all walked off but that was the breaking point for Ellie.
She stumbled out of the room sobbing. She had ruined her life, she lived on the streets and she wasn’t going to last in university for much longer without any money. Her eyes were filled with tears and she couldn’t really see where she was going so she tripped down the step out of the house. Great. Then she felt two firm hands grab under each of her arms and the floor disappeared from beneath her feet. She tried to turn around and see who was holding her up in the air when she heard a man’s voice, "You should be more careful, you could have broken your neck." The man’s voice was sweet and Ellie could tell he was teasing her. "Put me down" she whispered through her tears. Suddenly she was on her feet again and being guided towards a bench outside the house. Two men sat either side of her; she recognized them as the twins from the party. They were more like one person, they took it in turns to speak, and as she sat there pouring her heart out to these two complete strangers she realized she felt safer than she had all week.
After telling them her story she stared at the ground and started to stand. "Well it was nice meeting you" the twins looked at each other and then back at her. "You aren’t honestly going back to the alleyway are you?" the one called Greg said. Ellie was confused as she answered "Yes, where else am I supposed to go, back home?" the other twin Henry grabbed her hand and said "You could stay with us, we aren’t always great company and we are out traveling all of the time but you would have your own room".
Ellie considered this but then shook her head "No, I moved out so that I could start living for myself I can’t just keep living off other people" and with that she kissed them both on the cheek and wandered off into the night. Ellie grabbed her bags from the bush outside the mansion and headed back to her doorway in the alley. She quickly put a pair of trousers on and a strappy t-shirt put her bags under her head and fell asleep.
She woke with a bang to the head; "Ouch" she screamed, someone had opened the door. She hadn’t expected this because the house was up for sale. Nobody had been in it for the past 6 days. "Wow I’m so sorry, oh no look at your head it’s bleeding, wait there" the guy walked back into the house and Ellie was left clutching her head. The blood was now rolling off her chin and onto the top she had worn to sleep in. After about a minute the guy came back out with keys and lifted her into his arms gently "what, where are you taking me?" she asked, still shocked she wiggled but he held on. "I’m taking you to the hospital, you’ll need stitches. And I hope you don’t mind me asking but why were you lying outside my door? ". He looked down to see why she hadn’t answered his question but she had already fainted in his arms. He sighed and put her down on the passenger seat of the car.
