Why are you getting so angry? STOP! she told herself, but she couldn't help it.
It was pretty much at a boiling point...until Presley said something odd.
She blonde sat down, shocked, and stared at her like she had never seen her before. WHAAAT? "What do you mean? Like my family..my manor...scares you?" she asked, confused, obviously.
Weren't they supposed to be FEARLESS? Elliot didn't know WHAT to think right now...Presley was behaving very below Elliot's normal expectations...
"NO!" Presley shot back defensively.
"Intimidation and fear are not the same thing. Fear is pathetic. Intimidation is the worry of potential fear and therefore being pathetic." She would have pursued it further, but it looked like for some reason Elliot reeeeaaally wanted Presley to not stay at the school for the holidays. So Presley gave in. It wasn't an important enough battle to be having right now when they both had bigger things on thier plates.
"Never mind. Of course I can stay with you for the holidays. I was just being stupid." Presley looked at the wall. She hated that word, especially when applied to herself, but Elliot was her friend, and she wanted her friend to be happy.
