SCARLET LOOKED OVER To Aileen "You alright?"

Aileen looked over to Scarlet, smiling sadly "I just stabbed my ex through the stomach with a pool stick."

"Which was pretty badass if you ask me." Richie laughed, kissing her head.

Aileen giggled, wrapping her arm around Richie's waist "I love you."

"I love you, too." Richie kissed her head, walking out to their car.

Outside at Vince's car Lauren was checking Vince's stomach noticing some discoloration. Lauren was worried about her brother, knowing how he felt about hospitals

Scarlet looked around then walked out to Vince's car, seeing Lauren examine Vince's stomach "Laur, I can take him to the hospital."

"You sure?" Lauren questioned, raising a brow at the older woman.

Scarlet smirked "Yeah, you go home, get some rest or spend time with Lila and Anya."

Lauren kissed Vince's cheek "Love you, big brother."

Vince rolled his eyes "Yeah, I love you, too, my shining star."

Laurie waved then went to find Lila and Anastasia. Scarlet leaned against the car behind her and looked at Vince, crossing her arms.

"Spare me, Scarlet." Vince rolled his eyes, looking away from the girl.

Scarlet chuckled, biting her lip "I missed you, too, V."

Vince held his side, glaring at her "You left 5 fucking years ago, Scarlet, don't act like you're above it all, you abandoned our friendship and you abandoned me and you could've taken me away from this shit, but you chose to be a selfish entitled little princess thinking the world owed you for what you did. I raised my sister all on my own while your cousin stayed behind and did everything to help me and Lauren out while you abandoned our unit. You were my best friend, Scarlet, and it's like when you left you chose to forget about me and act like I meant nothing to you. Don't you dare stand there and act like I owe you for leaving me in this crap town."

Scarlet was about to fire back, but Vince was right. She left their friendship behind when she left Woodsboro in 2017.

"Vince, I..." Scarlet frowned, stepping closer to him.

"Save it, Scarlet. I don't want to hear the lame excuses." Vince glared at her, still holding his side.

Scarlet moved Vince's hand away from his stomach, lifting up his shirt. Vince looked away as Scarlet examined his wound, biting his lip. It could get infected, fast.

"I'll take you to the hospital." Scarlet mumbled, staring at Vince's wound.

Vince's eyes widened in fear "Scar, no hospitals, please."

"Vince, man up, you need to go to get the wood out of your stomach." Scarlet looked up at him, sighing.

"Will you stay with me?" Vince pleaded, looking down at her, not wanting to be alone.

Scarlet smirked, tilting her head, cupping his face "I'll even hold your hand."

Vince rolled his eyes, shaking his head at her in disbelief "You're still the same."

Scarlet giggled, helping him to his feet "Yeah, but that's why you kept me around."

Vince raised a brow, staring at her intensely "I think you kept me around, Preppy."

Scarlet's mouth hung upon as she playfully shoved him "Fuck you."

Vince laughed a bit, walking over to Scarlet's car "Hey, where's your uncle?"

"Just down the street from Aileen. Still married to Courtney, they had another baby. Sidney Deanne." Scarlet opened the door for Vince, confused as to why he asked questions about her uncle's whereabouts.

Vince's lip curved into a smirk as he got into Scarlet's car "Huh."

He would go after Roman, but he knew how much Roman meant to Scarlet, Anastasia, and Aileen. He was worried what his sister might think if she Scarlet got in the car, pulling out of the bar, driving off to the hospital.

AILEEN SAT ON The porch with Arianna, sighing. Arianna wrapped her arm around the girl.

"Laurie said that Scarlet was taking Vince to get checked out. You're going to be okay, AJ." Arianna comforted her old friend.

Aileen nodded, sighing and leaning into Arianna. Richie came out then sat behind Aileen.

"I'm gonna go check on Lauren and Vince, I'll keep in touch, AJ." Arianna hugged Aileen then went to her car.

Aileen leaned into Richie, rubbing his arms. Richie kissed her head, sighing deeply.

"Let's go inside, get some sleep, it's been a long day for all of us." Richie frowned, helping Aileen to her feet.

Aileen kissed Richie's cheek, smiling a bit. Aileen was a little skeptical about Richie since the Ghostface attacks, but she kept it to herself. Richie laid down on the bed, opening his arms for Aileen. How cute. Aileen giggled and got in bed with Richie, resting her head on his chest, falling asleep instantly.
