Gracies POV-

It's been 2 days since she left. I know Abby and Audrey said not to text or call but I did. How could I not? I was worried sick about her but she didn't answer any of them. I even left voicemails.

I was worried sick and I just couldn't do it anymore. I needed to make sure she was okay. I needed to see her. I needed her.

I called Aaron to let him know that I was going home early and that I would try to free up space
in my schedule so that I could come back and work on the album. I was already at the airport about to board my plane. Abby went back home yesterday and so did Audrey so I felt like I was gonna go crazy knowing I didn't even have them there.

After hours of being on the plane, I finally made it to LA. It was around 11pm already but I couldn't wait so I took an uber to Scarlets place.

As I got out of the car, now standing in front of her apartment complex I began to get nervous. What if she gets mad at me for coming? what if I make things worse? I shook my head trying to get those thoughts out of my head and made my way up to her apartment. Once I reached her door I stood there for a minute before I actually knocked.

The door opened and it was Sabrina, she looked at me suprised but at the same time her eyes softened? I don't know how to explain it.

"hey who is it?" I heard scarlet say.

She walked up to the door and saw that it was me and she looked like she saw a ghost or something.

"i'm gonna go scar, call me if anything. Hi gracie." she said with a small smile.

"hi." I said quietly as she walked out of Scarlets apartment.

Scarlet stood there looking at me so I just looked back at her.

"I'm sorry. I know you said you needed space but it's been two days and I was starting to go crazy not knowing if you were okay or not and scar I just love you so fucking much. I need you it's like I need you here with me or I feel like I can't fucking breathe. I don't know what to do without you. If us kissing made you overthink things then talk to me about it please and its just did I do something wrong? Is it me? Did-

Scarlet then pulled me in and smashed our lips together and picked me up slamming her door closed by pinning me against it. I wrapped my arms around her waist and brought her body closer to mine. We both backed away out of breath and stared into each other's eyes.

"you're crazy. do you know how late it is? and that flight must have been so long, you're crazy." she said smiling.

I smiled back at her and she hugged me tightly rubbing my head gently.

"you didn't do anything wrong my love. I'm sorry if I made you feel like you did, I just needed space to think things through and I couldn't look you in your face and tell you that especially not after the night before." she said quietly.

I backed away leaving space between us. I just felt upset.

"but why? why did you have to leave like that? I called and texted over 50 times probably and nothing and I was so-

I paused when I realized that it's exactly what I did to her and I just felt like shit. What I felt, she felt it worst. For 7 months.

"why um why did you go?" I asked more softly.

"because I realized that I was now more in love with you than ever and it scared me. I felt like I needed to leave so I could just think about everything. I love you gracie and I always will no matter what and i'm not even sure if I can imagine a future without you in it, if i'm being honest I never did. I always kept your side of the closet empty just incase you came back. I mean clearly you heard about it from someone." she said laughing at the last part.

I laughed with tears in my eyes remembering my song.

"you have my heart gracie and it scares the shit out of me. Not because I think you'll hurt me again but because I realized how much of me you really have, you have all of me and I have no control over it because I am so in love with you." she said cupping my face.

I began to cry while looking at her.

"i'm so in love with you too and I promise to never hurt you like that again." I whispered.

She nodded and kissed my head.

"I trust you and I forgive you for what happened. Also, Abby told me what happened and my love, you need to forgive yourself too. You didn't know any better and you did what you thought would be best for you. It wasn't your fault. It's true, I stopped being around and we barely talked unless it was before bed and you didn't deserve to be with someone like that. I promise to be better too and I promise to always make time for us." she said.

I nodded smiling at her and put my head on her chest. She began rubbing my head softly rocking us back and forth.

"come on let's go to bed you had a long day. jump." she said tapping my leg.

I jumped and she picked me up and brought us to her room.

We were laying down holding each other not saying anything.

"do you think you'll ever trust me enough to get back with me?" I asked quietly.

she grabbed my hand softly and started placing kisses on it.

"you've always been mine and I realize that now." she whispered.

I looked up at her as she continued leaving kisses going up my arm.

"so will you be mine again?" I asked.

She reached my shoulder and then began kissing my neck up until she reached my lips. I was breathing heavily feeling her lips on me.

"yes. I don't ever want to be anyone else's." she said leaning in and kissing me.
