7 summers :Morgan Wallen

Morgan was in his bus and Scarlett was outside on one of the benches around their buses. "Hey" Morgan muttered as he walked over and sat next to her.

"Hi" She mumbled shivering from the cold air hitting her arms. Morgan placed his flannel button up over her shoulders. She smiled silently thanking him.

"So, you wanna talk?" He asks. "We should" she replies. "Let every feeling out, I don't care if you call me an asshole I just wanna hear your side"

"What side? There is no side, you left, that's the whole story... it hurt like hell and every day I thought you were coming back but you never did.. and I was abandoned by the only person who meant something to me" she cried.

"Can I speak?" He asks. She nods even though she didn't wanna hear it.

"When I left, it wasn't my choice, mama signed me up for the voice and next thing I knew I was in California, I tried calling you when I got there but you never picked up.. I tried countless times no reply's, no answers, I'm sorry about leaving you but when I left it wasn't my choice, I never meant to hurt you or abandon you"

"You did, it hurt.. it hurt that you never told me.. it hurt that you knew and didn't even let me know.. it hurt that you left me... a lot hurt" she continued to cry.

"I can't help you didn't answer the call..." He added. "Why should I? I thought you didn't care.. you left.. I couldn't have said anything that would've changed that"

"Sorry, I'm an...." Morgan is cutoff. "Asshole? Dumbass? Which one?" Scarlett joked. "Both probably" He laughed.

"Why are you so hard to forget?" She asked. "Cause I'm one of a kind, no alcohol could get rid of me" Morgan joked.

"Ok tough guy" she replied. It was about 30 minutes of comfortable silence before she tucked herself underneath his arm and fell asleep.

She woke up in her bus the next morning and got ready to head to soundcheck. "Good morning" She mumbled patting Morgan on the shoulder.

"Mornin" He replies. "You tired or somethin?" She asks playfully scruffing his hair. "Mmhm, you?" He mumbles.
"I am" She replies.

She looks around at the custom stage of his logo. "Damn mo, custom stage and everything? Not even Tim McGraw had this" She mentions.

"Pretty crazy huh?" He muttered walking out on the stage with her. "Did you jump up and down when you seen it?" She joked.

"Sure did, wished you could've been there" He softly spoke. "I was out" She muttered. "Have you seen the merch stand?" He asks.

"I haven't, but I'm sure it's badass" She replies. "It is, cmon!" He excitedly shouted and grabbed her arm. He pulled her over to the merch stand and she smiled.

"I was right, it's badass" She said. "You want anything?" He asked pointing towards the table. "With your face on it? I think I'll pass" She joked.

"Suit yourself" He replied. He walked away leaving her alone by the stand and Micheal walked up.
"What's goin on Scarlett! Or should I say manager" He joked.

"Nothin, Just looking around" She replied greeting him with a side hug. "You smell good" He says. She shoots him a confused glance. "Thanks? I guess?"

"What? That's a compliment" He laughed. "But it's weird from you" She joked.

Later that day She walked over to soundcheck and found Morgan. "Your earpiece is wrong come here" I instruct.
He laughs and walks over.

I fix his earpiece and give him a thumbs up as I walk away. "Thanks miss Hanson" he joked. "My pleasure mr Wallen" I stab back.
