Calum's POV

Part two

We had just finished watching The Notebook (much to my despair, but she was downstairs before me) and we were about to start another movie before her phone rang.

She picked up her phone not bothering to check the caller ID, "Hello?" She answered cheerfully. I was glad she seemed a bit more happier now. I missed her smile. I watched as she scrunched up her face and her smile faded. "Scar, hey what's wrong?" She asked sounding very concerned. I took a seat beside her starting to worry. A tear fell down Sam's face as she spoke again, "Hey love it's okay, shh. I'll be right over okay?"

She hung up and put her phone down facing me. "Is everything okay?" I asked mentally slapping myself. What kind of question was that? Of course things weren't okay.

She just shook her head as tears spilled over her eyes. "I have to go see Scar, something's wrong," she told me. Her voice was already sounding dry and raspy and I hated it. I hated seeing her cry and I hated that I couldn't be here for her sooner. I nodded my head as she grabbed my hand and ran over to Scarlet's house. I'm glad they still lived across the street from each other.

Sam let herself into Scarlet's house and ran up to her room. She knocked lightly before entering and engulfing Scarlet into a hug. I stood in the corner not wanting to be seen yet because I had no idea if she even knew the guys and I were back. It broke my heart seeing Scarlet so broken like this. I can't imagine what she was going through. I must have gotten lost in my thoughts but I was quickly snapped back when I heard Scarlet mention Luke's name. I kept my head to the floor praying she didn't see me. There was a moment of silence when I looked up to see Scarlet's tear filled eyes looking at me. She had a mixture of shock and anger on her face and my heart dropped. I coughed shifting uncomfortably as I fully met her gaze, "Uh hey Scar," I smiled uneasily not knowing what her reaction would be.

Sorry for the late update. I got so busy last week and I'm really stressed out. I'm trying to remember to update. But I hope this is okay and sorry it's short. I hope you all had a great weekend. <3
