[Daniel-X]

Monday 24th November:

Mercedes is still stood outside the hospital as she glares at Freddie and snaps her fingers sarcastically "You not got anything to say for yourself then Freddie boy?" Mercedes grins evilly at him. Freddie gulps and stares at her "Please you can't tell Linds..." Freddie starts but is abruptly interrupted by Mercedes "You really are more sick than I thought, stop thinking of your stupid little self for a minute and button in it about you and your precious Lindsey besides you don't have long anyway just wait till the police get their hands on you" Mercedes declares evilly strutting off into the village before Freddie grabs her and drags her down an alleyway as Mercedes screams under his hand. "You tell the police and I'll finish the job" Freddie says holding Mercedes against the wall. She suddenly lifts up her bag and hits him hard over the head with it as it cuts his face and causes a huge gash "Get off me!" she screams before kneeing him to the floor. "it's all over for you Freddie!" Mercedes hisses before walking away.

Lindsey finally comes outside the hospital finally but can't see Freddie in sight as she tries to ring him it goes through to voicemail "Listen Freddie I'm not playing games here come now before anybody sees I'm ready" she says frantically putting the phone into her purse as Dr S'avage watches her from the front door "What was that all about?" He questions "Do you always have to poke your nose into everybody's business eh?!" Lindsey says anxiously that he might have heard the conversation "Just being friendly Dr Butterfield but something tells me that you're up to something with that brother in law of yours" He smirks trying to get to the bottom of what she's hiding. Lindsey looks at him before looking back at her phone "I'm sorry I have to go" Lindsey says frantically running away from the hospital as Dr S'avage watch on curious expression on his face.

Mercedes stumbles through the village as she takes off her blood stained high heels when she gets to the front door of the McQueen house she looks at it before knocking on biting her nails. Theresa opens the door surprised to see Mercedes "Where have you been Merc?" Theresa says half worried but half relieved "Let me in quickly I don't want to stay for long" Mercedes says as she walks through the front door.

Sienna is stood by Nico's bedside as she rubs her daughters head and kisses it as Nico sleeps softly before Patrick comes in with a DVD of Elf "I thought us three could watch this on one of the hospitals portable DVD players was always your favourite as a child Sienna" Patrick smiles waving the DVD in his hands "I don't really think Nico's up to it she's not had much sleep" Sienna says abruptly "C'mon I'm sure she'd love this and a few sweets from the vending machine" Patrick smiles "Just get away from her!" Sienna says loosing control and pushing Patrick hard "What's brought this on?" Patrick asks keeping his cool "Please just leave I'm too upset for anyone right now I want to be with my daughter" Sienna cries as Patrick holds his hands up and walks out the room Sienna cries softly too herself.

Lindsey runs into the Roscoe household relieved to see it as empty apart as she rubs her forehead in frustration before she gets a text on her phone from Kim "Where are you Lindsey I've got the suitcase I've put it in the staff room x" it reads. Lindsey ignores it and instead calls out for Freddie before Robbie walks through the door making her jump. "You gave me a fright" Lindsey says with a nervous laugh as Robbie raises his eyebrows and grabs a fiver off the kitchen counter "Left it for me dinner" Robbie chuckles before walking out the front door. Lindsey breathes out in relief before running upstairs into Freddie's room checking his wardrobe seeing his clothes have gone Lindsey looks startled and begins to cry softly as she thinks Freddie has left without her.

Freddie gets up in the alleyway as he stumbles out as Esther spots him as she walks by "Oh my god Freddie are you okay?!" Esther says looking at the cut on his face "Yeah I'm fine Esther" Freddie says trying to walk by her swiftly "Do you need any help that gash looks deep" Esther smiles trying to be helpful "Get off me Esther!" Freddie says pushing her as she flies back nearly knocking her to the floor before Grace spots this and runs over "Oi! He ain't causing you no trouble I hope is he?" Grace says as Freddie walks on "No he's not" Esther says brushing herself down "Forget about the diamonds Grace I'll have this Abby for you as a friend you've been good to me but don't forget I can pull the strings if I want to" Esther smirks walking away as Grace looks shocked before she breathes out and looks at the sky "Thank you baby Jesus" she declares.

Joe is seen walking through the village as he eats a ham sandwich before Dr S'Avage calls his name out "How can I help you doctor?" Joe smiles before his smile turns to worry "It's not Lindsey is it is she okay" Joe says panicked "She's fine it is something about Lindsey and it's about your brother Freddie also... Look come into the dog with me you may need to sit down for what I'm about to tell you" Dr S'Avage says anxiously as Joe looks confused by him.

Mercedes sits with her family all around "The doctors told me I'll have a permanent scar for life I just wanted to let you know I'm safe but I'm going now" Mercedes says putting her bag over her shoulder as she stands up and brushes her skirt as she gets off the sofa. "Mercy you don't have to what he did was horrible we'll look after you we were so scared and we'll take down those Roscoes" Myra says trying to act normal "I'll remember that next time you say you want me to pushing up daisies" Mercedes says bitterly as she walks to the door "Mercedes I'm so sorry we don't hate you we know it's Porsche who stole the ring" Myra please crying as Nana looks at Mercedes "Don't go love we miss you" she smiles. "What after you all did you choosing her over me?!" Mercedes says pointing at Theresa "You telling me to leave and John-Paul paying to me leave the village and to top it all of wishing me dead..." Mercedes smiles sarcastically "You're all pathetic you're grovelling might have worked on someone else but not me I'm leaving for Alicante next week as soon as I can so say your goodbyes now cos I seriously hope you're not expecting a big family reunion with steak and chips at the dog" Mercedes says before walking out as she looks happy for a short while her smile soon turns to a frown as she begins crying as she heads for the police station.

Freddie bursts through the door of the Roscoe house as he shouts for Lindsey after already being to the hospital Lindsey appears behind him with red eyes "Save it Freddie" Lindsey says before walking away "No let me explain" Freddie shouts back "There's no reasonable explanation for you leaving me in the lurch like this" Lindsey screams "I tried to kill Mercedes McQueen for us" Freddie admits as Lindsey's eyes widen.

Mercedes walks to the police station as she gulps before entering and going to the front desk "I'd like to report an attempted murder please" she says confidently.

Sienna is shown still sat in the hospital room as she strokes Nico's head "I love you Nico you're all that really matters me" Sienna smiles to herself "My little girls going to be better soon and she'll be with me and her dad like a proper family and nobody will stand in our way not your grandfather not Maxine not Theresa" Sienna smiles "Ever since you were born you were just the most precious thing to me ever I can't remember the night I conceived you it was all a blur I was so drunk you see that my dad punished me for a long long time but now I've found your dad at last it's just us three as the perfect family" she smiles to herself "We'll have to keep it our little secret though even though your daddy knows now I'm not sure he likes the idea but he'll come round to it I know he fancies me if I wasn't his sister things would just be so much easier" Sienna says wishfully thinking before standing up and biting her nails with her back turned to Nico. As she does this Nico's eyes open with horror as she covers her mouth like she's going to be sick. Nico knows Dodger is her father...
