Scarlet's POV
I looked at the clock, dante only said he was going to be 10 minutes and that was over an hour ago. I called him again but it went straight to voicemail, what the fuck was he doing. I laid back on my bed and eventually fell asleep. I was awoken by the covers moving, "dante?" I asked sleepily. "Hey babe" he replied, he smelt of alcohol and perfume.
"Where have you been?" I questioned suddenly wide awake, "just having a few beers" he replied. "Oh yeah right why do you smell like perfume then huh?" I asked. "There were girls there maybe that's why" he mused yawning. I sighed because I didn't want to argue with him right now, it could wait until the morning.
The next morning.....
"So are you gonna tell me where the fuck you were last night the rest of the week, why you didn't answer my calls. Why you smelt like perfume everytime you returned?" I said. He sat up and sighed, "I told you I was out, my phone died and there was girls there. Why are you being so paranoid?" he asked. "Why am I so paranoid? Maybe because your fucking lying!" I said pushing him.
"Im lying am I really? If youre not going to believe me maybe I should just go!" he shouted. "Fine fucking go, go on then" I replied, he shrugged on his jacket and left. The front door slammed the bang resounding round the house. I sat in silence as liz burst into my room, "who the fuck was that?" she screamed. "Dante" I replied, "why is he here again? You know your dad doesn't like him" she told me.
"Well don't worry about it okay hes gone now get the fuck out of my room!" I shouted, "don't you get all mouthy with me you little bitch youre not to old for a slap" she snapped. "Ooh im real scared fuck off liz" I replied as she got in my face, I stood up so I was nose to nose with her. "Im not scared of you" I said, "grow up scarlet" she said pushing me away and flouncing out of the room.
I ran out of my room to the top of the stairs and launched my shoes at her, "I fucking hate you!" I shouted as I heard a thud and a yelp. "Scarlet get down here right now!" my dad yelled, I walked downstairs saw him sitting on the front step. "200 dollars on a pair of creepers and you throw them at me?" he said, "I didnt mean to and in my defence I threw them at liz you just got in the way" I explained.
"You shouldn't be throwing things at anyone they were fucking expensive and you for sure shouldn't be throwing them at your mother" he said. "I said sorry didn't I look let me get some ice for your head" I said going to the kitchen and putting some in a tea towel. I walked back to him and placed it on the large lump forming on , "why were you throwing your shoes at her anyway?" he asked. "She pissed me off, got in my face" I told him sitting on the step next to him.
"Shes your mother scarlet its about time you got over this silly little grudge don't you think?" he said. "Silly little grudge?! She didn't even want me, yet youre telling me to get over it?! Why do you always have to take her side over mine, she can just go round talking to me like crap and I should just shrug it off?!" I said holding back tears. "Shes your mother scarlet, you should have more respect for her. Im married to her so its a partnership between us" he told me.
"I cant deal with her anymore, if you want to be all cosy together i'll just go. Im sure someone will give a shit about me" I said standing up. "Its not like that scarlet stop being childish!" he said. "Oh so now Im childish gee thanks dad!" I said as the tears rolled down my cheeks. I slipped on my shoes and coat and turned to face him "sorry im such a pain to you both I hope you'll be very happy together" I said walking down the front path.
"Where are you going?" he shouted, "away from you!" I yelled back as I ran up the road angrily wiping the tears from my face. I ran towards the park and spotted dante walking towards the café, I followed him through the park as he stopped by the bandstand. He was talking to a girl with red hair, she turned and faced him as I looked through the branches of the bush.
I knew that girl verity lambert the little whore! She cuddled him as I growled in frustration, that's where hes been. Hes been with her, how could he do that to me. How could he do that to us, "its because you pushed him away" my head screamed. I know I told him to go but he just ran straight into her arms, I swear down that bitch has crossed the line.
I walked out of the park and into the street, I wasn't going back home just yet. I walked the streets for a while, my phone kept ringing but I couldn't be bothered with anyone right now. I had come to realise that my mom and dad would always side with each other. My boyfriend clearly wanted some other girl, well this is shit..
