7 summers :Morgan Wallen

16

Touring was fun for Scarlett allowing her to relax for a while and have fun.

They were in Las Vegas and Scarlett was writing some songs for fun.

Morgan walks in and sits next to her. "Writing another amazing song my love?" He asks wrapping his arm around her waist.

"It's not amazing but it's kinda a personal song" She replies. "Oh really? You gonna cut it?" He asks.

"I don't know, maybe" she replies. "Maybe? That's better than what you said last time" he replies.
"Guess so" she replies.

"Your talented Y'know that?" He asks staring at the lyrics written on her paper. "Right back at ya" she replies.

Morgan went out to the bar with some of the crew and Scarlett stayed on the bus. He came home slap drunk and stumbled through the door, Micheal following behind him.

Scarlett was woken up by the sound of him throwing up. "You ok?" She asks. "He had one to many whiskey sours and now he's payin for it" Micheal laughs. Morgan shoots him the middle finger.

"I'll take care of you alright?" She assures. He sweats and throws her shirt in the corner. She rubs his back as he slumps over the toilet.

"Your the best Scar" he slurs with a drunken smile. "Thank you, now take a shower" she instructs handing him a towel. He stumbles into the shower and Scarlett goes to the kitchen.

"You don't deserve this Scar" Chase, (the new crew member) says. "Huh? Deserve what?" She confusedly asks filling up a glass of water.

"Morgan, getting drunk and staying out late, then getting home and you have to care for him, you don't deserve that" He explains.

Scarlett turns around and puts her hand on her hip.

"Listen here chase, you don't know me, I will leave his ass drunk if I want too but Y'know what? I care about him and he's had to care for me when I'm drunk, and he never complained, so keep your mouth shut and stay out of my business" she snapped grabbing the Tylenol and water and taking it to his bunk.

"You okay? I heard you yellin" Micheal asks. "Chase pissed me off" she replies. "I would ask why but I'm gonna leave you alone" He says patting her shoulder gently and walking away.

Morgan walks out of the bathroom and lays in his bunk. "Tylenols right here and some water, if you need anything let me know okay?" She says.

"Thank you baby, I'm sorry for this" he apologizes. "It's okay, just get some rest" she says kissing him on the forehead and walking to the kitchen.

Chase was still in the room and he stood next to her. "I'm sorry" he apologizes.

"It's fine" She mutters washing the dishes. "I didn't mean to piss you off" he replies. "I get it, it's fine" she assures.
He accepts and walks away. Micheal walks in helping her dry the dishes.

"You look tired" Micheal says. "I am, it's 2 in the morning" She replies. "Go to sleep, I'll handle him" he offers.
"You sure?" She asks. "I am, get some rest" he says, she thanks him and heads to her bunk.

The next morning her phone is blowing up with notifications so she checks it.

To her horror she sees videos of Morgan kissing other girls. She bursts into tears and slams her phone on the bed.
She packs her bags and leaves she starts to drive but doesn't know where she's going.

She finds a parking lot and parks her car with no intent of leaving anytime soon. Her head hits the steering wheel and she bursts into tears. After all she had done for him, he went out and cheated.

Morgan wakes up and walks to the kitchen making coffee, he figured Scarlett was already out doing stuff backstage.

He gets dressed and walks to Ernest's dressing room. "Hey, you seen Scar today?" He asks. "Nope, nobody's seen her since last night" Ernest replies.

"What? Where the hell is she?" He says walking around looking everywhere. He checked her bunk realizing all of her things were gone. "Holy shit, No, No, No, please this can't be happening" he stutters.

He calls her to no answer. Over and over and over...

His phone is blowing up with calls, from his mom, crew, everyone. He hadn't realized what he'd done.
He watch's the videos in horror at what he did.

And he didn't even remember it...

His head hits his hands and he regrets ever going out. Hardy comes in to show him the video. "I've already seen it, why would you let me do that?" He asks. "I didn't, we got separated and you went crazy I guess"

"I did it again... she's gone for good this time, if she comes back to me she's crazy" He spoke his voice breaking as he talked.

"You've gotta straighten yourself out man" Hardy explains. "What about the tour? Did she just abandon Ernest?" He asks. "If she comes back your sleeping in the other bus" Hardy scolds.

Scarlett sits for about three hours in the same position, curled into a ball in her drivers seat. She knows she needs to go back for Ernest. So she does.

She drives tears clouding her eyes as she pulls in. She hops out and sees Morgan talking with Hardy.
She ignores him and walks over to Ernest.

"Oh my god, you had me worried Scarlett" Ernest exclaims giving her a side hug. "Shake it off, I'm fine, make it count" she instructs sending him onstage.

She really just wanted to go home, and forget this tour, but she wasn't gonna leave Ernest and his crew like that.

Morgan walks over standing close to her. She scoots away from him. "Listen i-" he stutters.

"Shut up! Just shut up Morgan! You say this over and over and you always hurt me! Stop saying your sorry, your not! I was stupid to let you play with my heart like I did, maybe it was my fault, maybe I wasn't good enough so you had to go out and cheat, maybe I didn't show you enough affection, maybe I was an asshole at times, and maybe just maybe I wasn't as pretty as those girls, so take your fake ass apology and shove it up your ass, your not sorry and you know it! We're over!" She scream cries.

Morgan couldn't say anything. He just stood in silence. He had no way of defending himself because she was right.
He always ended up hurting her.

"It's not your fault Scar, i swear, it's mine, I went out and did stupid shit, and I lost the love of my life, now I'll drink my weight in whiskey and give up on life just like every other time"

"Your gonna have to get your life together, get help your alcohol problem has messed up so much for you, and I've always stayed, not this time Morgan, I can't do it, for my sake and yours, when this tour ends I'm moving my stuff out of your house and I won't be seeing you again other than work, and that's a promise" she scolds.

"I'm sorry, I truly am" he stutters, she shook her head and walked off.

He'd done it this time...

She was gone...
