brief history:
Her childhood wasn't exactly very exciting. She was a pretty quiet child, always preferring to keep to herself with her dolls and little toy horses, or read books or play her guitar. her parents never truly minded, her mother was always baking and her father was in the army and left for periods at a time and without any siblings she didn't exactly have many other options. she was always quite insistent when she felt she needed or wanted something - not to the state of her being spoilt, she had never been superficial or materialistic and actually always rather charitable with things, however sometimes she came up to them with a request and with the promises to keep practising she was allowed to learn how to play the flute. she adored it from the off and found herself a natural talent, which was praised by her teacher and parents. she would often practise hours in her room, and her parents worried about her lack of friends - how much she enjoyed being by herself.

it was nothing to worry about however, she had always been a perfectly normal girl, she was just rather peaceful and sweet. when she was seven however her father died - he was a soldier, a sergeant her mother would continue to tell her whenever elle asked about him. at first she was only told that he would not be home for a while due to the wars, however over time her mother stopped telling her daddy would be home soon and eventually sat her down to tell her her father had died in action. elle did not burst into tears, but rather drew into herself. she stopped eating properly, stopped smiling...stopped playing her guitar. her father had always adored her playing, had always encouraged her more than her mother - who was more busy baking than daddy who used to come home on leave often and be around a lot. he used to put her on his knee and kiss her head and tell her stories, he made her laugh and he used to read to her. she adored her father and suddenly he was gone and she took it hard.

she was hospitalised briefly when she refused to eat for so long, and when she awoke to see the look on her mothers face she vowed never to scare her mother like that again - she vowed to make her mother smile again, just like elle had stopped smiling. they healed each other after time, and one day, elle began to play her music again. her mother taught her how to bake and they laughed and eventually things became better. she grew up to be a sweet girl, compassionate. she planted flowers in the garden for her mother, and she got good grades at school. when she was sixteen, she met a boy. of course being reasonably pretty she had began to notice male attention but she had always been rather shy when it came to boys. ryan however was confident and he managed to spin her enough lines to make her fall for him - fast. without realising or meaning to she came to give her heart to the boy, and whilst everything was adorable at first and he made her laugh and brought her a necklace with a heart on it... things didn't take forever to go south.

she had always been nervous about sleeping with him, and in the beginning he had always been happy to wait until she was ready, and yet a few months in the pressure began. he got angry with her when she said no, he'd go through periods of being grumpy with her or the next day he'd be flirting with other girls in front of her and put her down. she tried to end it, however he always apologised and she forgave him. eventually he pressured her enough to agree, the mistake of many. for her, it was by far not the most pleasant experience and suddenly he didn't care anymore. he wasn't gentle or nice with her anymore, he started pulling her around, pushing her, leaving bruises. she again tried to break it off but he broke down and promised he would never hurt her again. she believed him. they moved in together just after her seventeenth birthday and whilst for a few weeks everything was glorious, again it hit a dead end when her best friend - male made the mistake of making a comment that ryan heard when he was there.

her best friend -jasper- had never liked ryan, knew what he was like and tried to get elle to leave him but she was in too deep. accusations flew, ryan yelling that she was cheating on him with jasper and suddenly he hit her. it was the first time in a while she'd been afraid of him, and at first he was horrified...and yet over the next few months he stopped saying sorry, he stopped promising never to do it again. his control on her tightened, monitoring her phone calls, where she was during the day, who she talked to, what friends she had and where she went with them. if she got anything wrong, if she said something bad she soon paid for it. suspicions grew however and to avoid awkward questions, ryan moved them far from yorkshire to seven oaks where they knew nobody. he went out to work lucky enough for elle, and she discovered a passion in riding. she struggles to get through the day without displeasing him, but with ryan in control of everything there's nothing more she can do.

overall personality: you'll struggle to find somebody sweeter and more compassionate than elle. she's a sweet-heart she really is, and maybe she lacks a backbone but it's no wonder when she's stuck with a man like ryan. she'd do anything for anyone, it's something she's always been like ever since she was a child and she's a big believer in charity and 'giving back'. she's honest, and there's not a lie that could ever pass her lips without her feeling so guilty she'd confess immediately afterward. she's trustworthy however she doesn't trust very equally in return but there's no wonder why that is - she thought ryan was trustworthy but he's broken his promises over and over. she's perhaps a little naive and too forgiving but she can't help it, she sees the best in everyone and likes to believe there's some good in everybody. she's a social butterfly deep down but she's not very outgoing or much of a partier or feisty and so she struggles to make good friends who don't mind that about her. she's quite lonely - whilst she's never minded bein along there's a difference, and she's starting to crave real friends and real love again now that she's so far from everything she knows and everyone who was good to her.
