My Enemies Brother

54. Decisions

Hardin's POV:

I block Tessa view of her friends' unconscious body and take her to her best friend.

We walk into the spare room that's not being used by someone and see Brandon hold Scarlet as she shakes, sobbing into his chest.

Brandon is whispering in her ear telling her it'll be okay.

"Scar," my girl calls out to her. Scarlett lifts up her head Brandons chest and looks over in our direction.

Her eyes widen a little before she runs over to water we are standing and throws her arms around Tessa, continuing . "I'm so sorry Tess!" she says sobbing into her neck. 

Don't think I didn't miss what she called her, I'm just going to let it slide, this time anyway. 

Brandon and I walk out of the room giving the girls some privacy. 

Let's just hope this goes well.

Tessa's POV:

When Hardin and Brandon walk out of the guest room Scarlett and I move over to sit on the bed. 

Scar is still crying and saying that she's sorry continuously. Once she has calmed down a little we pull away. 

"It's not your fault babe, please don't think that," I tell her, putting a piece of hair behind her ear. "B-but it is," she hiccups. "I should've never told him that Hardin knew," she  says before putting her hands over her face. 

Suddenly her hands fly away from her face like it was burned. "Yo-you do know that Hardin and I never did anything together, right?" she asks anxiously. I send her a soft smile. "Yeah, I know," I tell her. Her shoulders sag in relief. "Thank you," she sighs. "See that's what I thought Mich was going to say too, but that obviously did not happen," she says sadly. 

"I thought everything was going great between you guys after the whole Brandon thing?" That's what she told me anyways, plus everything seemed to be going great. Better than great even. "Uh well, that was a um, lie," she laughs quietly. I immediately sit up straight. "What happened?" I ask her seriously. 

She looks down at her lap and plays with her fingers, but continues to look at me from the corner of her eye. I grab one of her hands in mine, and pull her chin up making Scarlett look me in the eye. Her gorgeous green eyes start filling up with tears again. He," she sniffles, "He started to call me a slut and things like that," she whispers. My eyes go wide in surprise. "He what!" I yell out. That makes her flinch away from me in surprise. 

What the hell did he do to my girl?!

"I'm sorry," I apologize in my normal voice. "But doesn't he know about-

"Yes," she says confirming my suspicion. "That's why he said those things," she also tells me. This just makes me even angrier. He knows about what those disgusting creatures did to her and decided to use it against her. He's almost worst than they are.

"What else did he say?" I ask my bestfriend clearing my throat. She goes on telling me all the things he has said and done to her in the past month. I'm steaming at this point. There is no way in hell he's leaving here today without a couple broken bones. 

I wipe my tears that are both out of anger and sadness.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I ask her. I know I've said this before but she can tell me anything. No matter what, even if I'm going through somethings.

She scoffs. "Come on T, you have your own stuff to figure out. You don't need the extra stress of Micheal being," she pauses for a little trying to find the right word, "Micheal," she says waving her hands a little bit. I roll my eyes at her. "Scar, you already know that what ever's going on with me isn't important. And Micheal isn't just being Micheal and you know it," I tell her sternly. 

She, of course sighs, knowing I'm right. She leans foreword, putting her elbows on her knees and her face in her hands. "What am I going to do?" she asks herself out loud. I put my hand on her back and rub it. I don't say anything because there's nothing for me to say. I know what I'm going to do, but this is more complex for her.

She's in love with him. But in the end, it's her health. 

I don't know what choice she's going to make but I hope she makes the right one.
