Emily Longley was just 16 years old when she decided to make the move from New Zealand to England to attend Brockenhurst College and complete her A Levels. She thought the move might help her calm down, and put her in an environment where she could focus on her studies. While out with friends one night, she met 19 year old Elliot Turner, someone so spoiled he'd put Affluenza Ethan Couch to shame. Elliot had everything he could ever want the moment he wanted it, and from the moment he saw her, he wanted Emily.
It wasn't long into their relationship before Elliot's controlling side came out. He wanted to control everything - what Emily wore, what friends she hung out with, what she did in her free time. When she wouldn't listen, Elliot got angry.
