It's been a couple days since the hook up incident and Scarlett is preparing for the last show of tour.
She runs over to Micheal and puts his earpiece in and gives him his microphone.
She stops at Morgan's dressing room door and knocks lightly. "Morgan! Your on in 20!"
"I'm changing one second!" He yells. "You need your earpiece!" She shouts back.
"I'm butt ass naked give me a second!" He shouts. "Don't you think we're past that point?"
She jokes.
"Ok come in" he invites still trying to iron his shirt. "Bend down" she instructs.
"Excuse me?" He asks. "You have a filthy mind y'know? I meant so I can put your earpiece in"
"I didn't know I thought you wanted some" he jokes, Scarlett smacks his arm.
"Now put your shirt on and get out here" Scarlett instructs as she walks out the door.
"Yes ma'am" Morgan says saluting her. He laughs and Scarlett rolls her eyes.
Morgan walks up and gives his guitar a couple test strums and sits down as if he were waiting on Scarlett.
"What?" She asks. "I need my stuff" he says reaching for it.
"It's right in front of you bozo" she jokes.
"But you usually do it" he whines. "You're a grown man, pick it up bub" she jokes patting him on the shoulder.
Morgan fake frowns and puts his microphone on.
Micheal runs off stage and Morgan stands up.
"Go get 'em" she says patting his back.
Scarlett is busy enough to where she didn't see the tumble Morgan took a few minutes after he stepped on stage.
Michael's hysterical laughter caught her attention. "What's so funny?" She asks.
"Morgan just busted his ass out there!" He laughs. "Is he alright?" She asks.
Micheal shrugs and continues laughing.
Morgan hobbles off stage holding the back of his leg and sits down on a box.
"You ok? Micheal said you fell" Scarlett asks concern plastered on her face.
"Mmhm, just need some ice" he groans taking off his equipment and handing it to Scarlett.
Scarlett walks and gets a bag of ice and takes it to Morgan.
"damnn" he groans holding the ice on his now bruised tailbone.
"holy shit, thats bad morgan" Scarlett states rubbing her finger over his bruise. "It's not, don't worry about me" He denies.
She walks away her mind wanders off...

It was a fall Friday and Morgan had a baseball game, Scarlett was in the stands sorta zoning out when a crack echoed the field. "Shit" she mumbled running towards the dugout where a now hurt Morgan sat. He held his arm fighting the pain. "I'm gonna keep playing, I can't-" he mumbled. "No your not, just take a breath" Scarlett says running her fingers through his hair. He was taken by his coach to the doctor since his parents were out of town.
Scarlett met them there and waited for him to come out. "I'll take him home" she offers holding Morgan's shoulder for support. She put him in her passenger seat and started to drive. "I love you scar" he mutters placing his free hand on her thigh. "I love you too Morgan" she replies. She takes him home and holds onto him as they walk up the porch steps. She starts a bath and waits for the water to get warm. "What're you doin?" He groans.
"Starting you a bath" she replies. She slowly helps him in the bath soaking his shoulder. She gently rubs his head as he relaxes. "Thank you Scar, you didn't have too" he mumbled pulling her face close to his. "Your welcome, I love you" she whispered kissing him softly. "I love you too"

He walks it off and heads back to his bus. Micheal is sitting on the couch next to him. "So are you and Scarlett together?" Micheal questions. "No, but I want to be" he replies.
"Then ask her" Micheal suggests. "I don't know man" thinking about Scarlett made his stomach turn. She was so beautiful it hurt.
"Go ahead tell me why"
"She's absolutely beautiful, inside in out, she's way out of my league she deserves someone who will love her like she deserves, someone who isn't running around at shows all the time, I'm not that guy" Morgan explains.
"Hmm, sounds like you bub, that girl loves you to death" Micheal says.

"Good morning!" Scarlett enthusiastically shouts as she hops on Morgan's bus. "Mornin, Scar" Morgan mutters brewing himself a cup of coffee.
Scarlett hugs him tight, her hands around his neck, his around her waist. "You smell good" He mutters breathing in the scent of her perfume. "Thanks" She replies smiling as she walked off.
She stands near the door on her phone and Morgan wraps his arms around her. "How's your butt?" She jokes in reference to his fall.
"Sore, but it's still cute ain't it?" He jokes. She laughs and walks out. "Love you!" He shouts. She stopped for a second and turned around. "Love you too Morgan" she shouted back.
Her stomach turned and she walked off.
Later that day Morgan and Scarlett were left alone in his bus. Her skin flushed from all the kisses he left on it.
"Can I talk to you?" Morgan mutters.
"Of course"
"I- I, wanna try us again..."
