Love Bites.. and so do I

Ball buster. How dare you.

I can’t let your ego get too big. I like seeing you this happy, D. Both of you.

They really are a great couple, it is great to see more people finding happiness in each other. I will never say no to more love being in the air. That is a…great way to look at it. I’m trying my best to take this new year as a fresh start. 

I think you’re absolutely right. The world could use a little more of it. At least this way, the Southside can have one of those royal weddings that I know you’ll end up throwing as well. A fresh start is a good idea. Sometimes it’s really needed, you know? Hell, I know I could use it. Shaking off some of the mess from this past year and moving forward. I’m glad to have had those experiences and to get to grow from them, as cheesy as that sounds. 

EL: No but he was my home and you know.. Someone I thought I was gunna love......

EL: It was one fucking hit Eliana.

ELIANA: And i'm not downplaying that, Ell. It's not my place to downplay it but it is my place to be your friend and not let you lose yourself because some guy decided he didn't know how to care about you.

ELIANA: You don't need anyone in your life who doesn't want to be there, and if he could just walk out on you like that then he wasn't your home. Home doesn't do that.

ELIANA: You think Charlie would ever leave me like that? You think Ale would? Dare? These people are home to me and they wouldn't just walk away and the people who would, aren't. Plain and simple.

EL: But what else am I meant to do? TJ is gone.

EL: I believe you would.

ELIANA: Dude. Your life isn't this guy that you dated. I get that you care about him and it hurts that you're broken up and he left and shit but you're not just who you date!

ALE: You're gonna spoil him so much, I can tell.

ALE: That's definitely not good, and you're a good friend for taking him in

ELIANA: I can't help myself. He's so sweet and I love him!

Ask her yourself, Soph knows Papa can’t sing.

But if she asked...?

EL: Clearly there is something wrong with the wiring in my head for me to even remotely be acting like him...

EL: Which until you said it I was like them... I didn't realise.

EL: I am not going to be his bitch Eliana!

EL: For fucks sake... he'd kill me if I even got in his line of sight.

ELIANA: I'm not saying you're like him. I'm saying don't be like THEM. Like the Ghoulies. With the drugs and shit.

Yeah, still not happening, Ellie. Better luck next time.

What if Sophia asks? With those big beautiful puppy dog eyes? Because it’s all she wants to hear in the whole world?

EL: I ain't acting like them Eliana.

EL: But what if I am becoming like him?

EL: Why would I be Derek's bitch?

ELIANA: Then i'll kick your ass until you're not like him anymore. He's a fucking psychopath, Ell. He wants to kill Dare and burn us all to the ground.

I am tone deaf. You clearly don’t understand or realize how stubborn I am. And I wish I could blame this on the hearing thing, but I’ve always been tone deaf.

I do realize how stubborn you are but I also know how rarely I give up but singing is a part of life. I’ll put the camera away and not record anything but we are absolutely getting some singing on.

EL: OK, just give me a warning so I can have Charlie with me in case.

EL: I am them by blood... remember.

ELIANA: I will.

Trust me, I don’t sing. No one wants that.

Ryan, I am a woman who is very skilled at getting what she wants. I have a feeling that you absolutely do sing and I look forward to getting this prove on camera. 

ALE: What matters is that you fought and beat the urge. That's huge, babe. And don't worry about Thor. He's an adaptable little puppy.

ALE: He must be happy to count on you too.

ALE: Cool! Should be fun :)

ELIANA: Thank you. That really means a lot to me. And you're right. Thor is the cutest little angel ever. I got so much stuff for him when I stopped at the store. I can't wait to bring them to him.

EL: Thanks.

EL: OK yeah Charlie can't handle the crazy puppies. He just finds it too much.

EL: Yes dear?

ELIANA: Thor is going to be trained at some point but he's a pup right now. He'll be good when I bring him by.

ELIANA: No drugs.

EL: I dunno what time I'll be back from Greendale so I'll stop at mine tonight and bring back my stuff tomorrow.

EL: Will the pup and Charlie get along?

EL: Wrong number, who dis?

ELIANA: No worries. You have the key so whenever.

ELIANA: I'm sure but Thor is a little active so he might annoy Charlie a little. But he's been staying at Ale's and at the shop so no worries.
