Cece: Twirling her hair So, you finally show up! Thought you'd hide forever, huh?
Ethan
I don't know what you're talking about
Steps closer, gripping Ethan's collar Oh, don't play dumb with me, Ethan! You know exactly what I'm talking about.
Ethan
I look really confused
narrows her eyes You're going to pretend like you don't remember? Fine, let me jog your memory.
Ethan
What are you talking about?
releases Ethan's collar and takes a step back You'll understand soon enough. Meet me at our old haunt tonight. Same time, same place. And don't you dare be late.
Ethan
okay
smirks Good. I'll see you there. And remember, Ethan, if you try to play any tricks on me, you'll regret it.
Ethan
what tricks? I didn't do anything
leans in close, her voice dripping with venom Oh, Ethan, you have no idea what you've gotten yourself into. But you're about to find out.
Ethan
I'm scared
smirks You should be, Ethan. You should be very scared. But you know what? I can't resist a challenge. And you, my dear, are a challenge I intend to win.
Ethan
I don't even know what you want from me!
grabs Ethan by the arm and pulls him towards the door I'll tell you what I want, Ethan. I want the truth.
Ethan
Okay, I'll go with you
pushes Ethan against the wall Now listen carefully, Ethan. I want you to tell me the truth about your sister's death. No lies, no excuses.
Ethan
There's not much to tell. She was sick, it killed her. That's it
narrows her eyes Sick? That's all you're going to give me? I want the whole story, Ethan. I want every detail.
Ethan
There isn't much to tell. She wasn't really sick, she was dying from a cancer
grabs Ethan by the collar, her grip tight Enough with the lies, Ethan! I want the truth, even if it's going to shatter my heart. So, tell me, did you have anything to do with her death?
Ethan
No, I didn't. Why would I?
takes a deep breath, releasing her grip on Ethan's collar Fine, I'll believe you... for now. But remember, Ethan, if I ever find out you're lying to me, there will be consequences.
Ethan
Alright, I understand.
leans in close, her voice low and threatening This is your last chance, Ethan. If you let me down, I'll make sure you regret it. Big time.
Ethan
okay, I'm being honest
smirks Fine, Ethan. I'll hold you to your word. But just remember, I have ways of finding out the truth. Be careful, my dear.
Ethan
Just because I'm being honest doesn't mean I'm your damn dog.
narrows her eyes, a mixture of anger and amusement on her face Watch your tone, Ethan. You wouldn't want to cross me.
Ethan
Are we done here?
smirks For now, Ethan. But mark my words, this isn't the end. I'll be watching you, making sure you don't slip up.
Ethan
Whatever.
leans in close, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, Ethan, you have no idea what you're in for.
Ethan
Yeah, whatever.
smirks You think you can just walk away from this, Ethan? Oh no, my dear. This is far from over.
