Great Mistake

Chapter 3

Scarlette's POV

I woke up and found Steve asleep on a chair right next to me.

"Steve. Steve." I whisper shouted at him "STEVE!" I yelled this time.

"AHH! WHAT! WHAT HAPPENED! ARE YOU OKAY?" Steve jumped off his chair, I started laughing at him and after I finished I helped him get up.

"You didn't have to sleep next to me you know that right?" I told him with a smile on my face.

"I know, but I felt terrible knowing that you had another nightmare and I wasn't there for you." He hugged me and kissed the top of my head.

"AW! I love you Steve." I said hugging him even tighter.

"I love you too Scarl." He said lowering his head and placing a kiss on my forehead.

Yeah he had to bend down so he could kiss my forehead. He's 5'9 and I'm 5'2 there is no difference, we're almost the same height.

"Okay, now out, enough of 'I love you's I need to get ready." I said as I pushed him and opened the door of my room to let him know that I'm kicking him out. Respectfully of course.

"Okay! Okay! I'll get out! Oh, and I'm gonna prepare breakfast." He said standing at the door.

"Okay, I won't take long, now out!" I threw a pillow at the door but he was already gone.

I walked out from the restroom and into my closet, I  picked a pair of black Jeans, a white crop top and white shoes.

My hair was good so I didn't have to torture myself by brushing it.

And then I went into the kitchen, and found Steve still making breakfast.

And no it's not pancakes, even though I wanted it so bad, but hey, eggs aren't that bad.

We sat at the table and started eating.

"I'm going to the hair salon today, after I finish from college of course, so I need the car." I told Steve while he was eating a mouth full of eggs.

"Oh shoot, you can't take the car I have a job interview today." He said and swallowed his food.

"Why can't I get a job, I'm a junior and you're a senior, and I'm turning 21 soon." I said with an annoyed tone.

"Scarl we've talked about this." He gets up and I roll my eyes at him.

After we finished eating Chris arrived.

"Hey dude" Steve greeted him.

"Thank you for tonight" I said as I walked up to him and gave him a tiny smile.

Why did I just smile at him?!

He didn't say a word he just stared at me.

"No 'you're welcome Scarlette'" I glared at him.

"You'r-"

"You know what? No! I don't want to hear it! You know why? Because I know deep down you enjoyed watching me suffer. Plus your voice is so annoying." I said and walked away.

"Hey man, I need you to take Scarl to the hair salon today after college" I heard Steve telling him.

"WHAT!" I said at the same time as Chris who responded with an "Of course".

I ran to the kitchen and I met Chris's eyes, and I realized how blue his eyes were.

AH focus Scarlette focus you hate that guy he did one nice thing to you and that's it.

"SCARLETTE!" I heard someone yelling my name, but I have no clue who it is.

"Hm, oh, yeah yeah sounds great" I said as I walked out of the kitchen again not knowing what I just agreed to.

I was heading out of college, when I spotted Chris waiting next to his car so I decided to annoy him with my annoying voice.

"Finally your here." Chris said and got into his car.

"What, I never agreed to go with you." I looked at him with a confused look.

"Ahh, yes you did, now get in the car so you won't miss your appointment" He got out of his car and opened the door for me.

"Aw, such a gentelman." I don't even get to finish my sentence when he slams the door in front of my face without me even getting in. 

"JERK!" I open the door and get in.

"I'm coming with you just because I don't want to be late." I glared at him.

"Whatever." He murmured and I just kept throwing daggers at him with my eyes.

We arrived at the salon just in time, Chris sat at the couch while they were cuting and dying my hair.

I've always wanted to try this hair style and color, so I'm supper excited to see the final result.

/////

When my hair was finally done I looked in the mirror and I could hardly recognize myself.

I LOVE IT.

Then I walked up to Chris who's staring at his phone.

"Okay, we can go now." I said and at the sound of my voice Chris lifted his head from his phone and just stared at me like a dummy with his mouth wide open.

"Um, hello earth to Chris, I need to get home." I started to walk out of the salon.

"Um, yeah sure, sure, sure yeah" I heard him say as he followed me out the door.

"What were you staring at?" I asked while opening the door of the car.

"At you." He simply said.

"Oh. So you've finally realized how pretty I am?" 

"No." He said with a straight face.

"What then?" I shot him a glare.

"Oh. Just that, I never thought that you could get even uglier." He grinned and I gave him a slap on the arm.

"Just start driving man!"
