Gushers

Ronnie's POV

I had just found the last box of goddamn gushers in this whole fucking store and I had really been wanting these, I was really geekin out by this point.

I grabbed the last box with out even thinking about anything else. Then I saw another hand had grabbed it too.

I looked up at the same time they did. it was a chick. I heard her gasp and say in a questioning tone, "Ronnie Radke?"

I was thanking god that she was a fan. because all my fans would let me have whatever I wanted and she didn't look any different from the rest of them.

I cracked a half hearted smile at her, if she was a fan she wouldn't even notice.

I said "hi" in a sexy low voice while holding the gushers box still. Figuring she would let go, but she didn't.

Scarlett's POV

Ronnie cracked a half hearted smile, like I wouldn't notice and said "hi" in a low voice. Was he trying to be sexy? If he thought I was another one of his stupid fan girls who would just let him have the gushers, he had another thing coming to him

I was already having a crappy day and I didn't need this.

So I cracked a half hearted smile too, and I yanked the box from him as fast as I could and ran, yelling "bye" so that Shane and that freaking Ronnie guy heard me.

On my way out I slammed five dollars on the counter before running out the door.

Ronnie's POV

The moment I saw her crack a smile like mine and not have it full of love, I knew she wasn't one of my crazed fans.

The next thing I knew she had yanked the box from me, yelling bye as she ran out of the door.

I stood there in shock, kind of pissed off that she took the last box of gushers and ran.

I didn't know what to do. So I walked to the front of the store and saw the cashier talking to him self.

"Damn it scarlet forgot her change, why did she dash out of the store anyways?" Said the cashier.

So her name is Scarlet. hmm.

I walked up to the cashier, who looks to be about 17.

"Yes, may I help you?" Said the cashier, looking me over like he might know me but couldn't really decide if he did or not. so he just rolled his eyes.

I looked at his name tag to see it said
Shane on it, what a punk ass name. I huffed. "Ah yeah, no I was just wondering if you didn't mind if I ran Scarlets change to her?"

I was going to get her back for running off with my fucking gushers. It really pissed me off.

Shane looked me up and down again, shrugged his shoulders like he thought I was just another one of her friends and that's why he thought I was familiar

"yeah whatever" Shane said and handed me her change. "you'll probably want to take the short way to her apartment if you want to get there faster" he said while drawing on a napkin, showing the ally way that cut right a cross to her apartment.

Shane handed me the napkin, and I walked out the door waving bye.
<door open, bell ring and door shots>

A few moments later I'm walking through a ally way. it wasn't to bad walking through there compared to the streets where everyone was giving me dirty look. god I fucking hated people.

I finally arrived at her apartment. good thing shane wrote down her apartment
Number on it.

I walked up to the buzzer and and rang apartment B3. but there was no answer. Did I beat her here?

Well there was nothing else I could do but sit on the steps and wait, so I did.
