imsoclueless SeniorCharlotte suddenly stood up and walked over to Elliot, grabbing him by the shirt collar. He froze as he was dragged to his feet, fear in his eyes. "You don't think your little 'sob story' f---ing worked on me, did you?" She said in a low voice, pulling Elliot close so his face was mere inches away from hers. "You may have fooled Quinn, but not me. Your face is plastered on every billboard in the area, and you're wanted for murder. I don't know what you're trying to pull with Quinn, but I won't let you hurt him." Elliot lifted his hands, his breathing quickening. "I'm not trying to hurt him, and I'm not a murderer. I've been framed. And believe it or not, my story's f---ing true. I would never hurt Quinn, he's- he's been too good to me, hiding me here..." Charlotte eyed the ravenette before dropping him, letting go of his shirt. He exhaled and fell back against the chair, hand on his chest. "We only want to make sure Quinn doesn't get himself hurt again. He's such a sweet guy, and we've seen it happen too many times," Sunday said, sighing. "But, if Quinn trusts you, then- then we trust you, too."
-
Quinn eventually came back with a plate of stale crackers and some ranch. ‘Here, your goddamned snacks,’ he muttered, setting them on the table. He stood up straight and noticed Elliot’s face, then the girls’. ‘Woah, uh, what happened here?’
-
imsoclueless Senior"Nothing, don't worry about it," Charlotte said, a neutral look on her face. "So! Quinn, how long have you and-" "Elliot," "yes, how long have you and Elliot known each other for?" Sunday asked, looking between the boys.
-
Quinn sighed. ‘About a week,’ he said, leaning back in his chair. He looked at Elliot, hoping he was alright, then back at the girls.
-
imsoclueless Senior"And you two are already hooking up?" Charlotte asked with a chuckle, raising an eyebrow at Quinn. Elliot flushed red and brought a hand up to his face, covering his mouth.
-
Quinn blushed bright red, covering his face with his hands. ‘Oh my god, Charlie, no! I already answered this!’ he exclaimed flusteredly.
-
imsoclueless Senior"Sorry, had to ask," the pink haired girl replied with a chuckle. Sunday giggled, watching the boys for a moment. "So, you say that you're staying with Quinn to get away from a rough family situation," she asked Elliot, a gentle smile on her face, "do you think you could elaborate on that? If that makes you uncomfortable, though, I understand."
-
Quinn groaned and leaned back, curling up against the couch. He waited for Elliot to respond to Sunday
-
imsoclueless Senior"I-" Elliot sighed, hugging his arms to his chest. "I used to work for the Huntress-" Sunday let out a tiny gasp but covered her mouth, gesturing for Elliot to continue. He took a deep breath, clenching his hands into fists. "I used to work for her, but then I ran away. That's why I'm on the run, and being framed for murder."
-
Quinn sighed, gently leaning his head on Elliot’s shoulder. He didn’t say anything, letting the three talk.
-
imsoclueless Senior"But why are you framed for murder?" Charlotte asked, leaning forward. "I mean, if the Huntress wants you back so bad, why hasn't she just taken you already?" Elliot sighed, giving a little shrug as he rested his head on Quinn's. "I'm honestly not sure. Maybe she's just, waiting for the right time to grab me..."
-
‘Because she wants the authorities to catch him for her,’ Quinn mumbled, sighing. ‘She’s probably too avoid to do her dirty work herself.’
-
imsoclueless Senior"Sounds like her," Elliot muttered, resting his hand on Quinn's, that rested on his shoulder. "I just hope I can figure something out, get her off my back..."
-
‘We’ll think of something,’ Quinn said, squeezing his hand, smiling softly. ‘Promise.’ He glanced at Sunday and Charlotte.
-
imsoclueless Senior"And we promise not to tell anyone you're here," Sunday said, grabbing Charlotte's hand with a smile. Elliot smiled and sighed with relief, leaning against Quinn's side. "Thank you, guys."
