In Trouble [hiatus]

Chapter 14 // I'm totally shipping Scarek all the way, baby!

The girl that just stepped out was the perfect definition of stunning.

I glanced sideways at Izek, he had full a blown grin on his face.'Tara!' He exclaimed and she ran into his arms.I couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy inside my chest.My insides were furious,I was getting insanely jealous.

Oh my God.

Was she his girlfriend?

I don't even know if he's single! The topic didn't even cross my mind! But if he was in a relationship with someone he would've obviously told me,I consider us as friends.

Now don't tell me I'm crushing on a guy who's in a relationship with this completely gorgeous girl.

'I've missed you little cousin!' She pulled away slowly from his arms.

Cousin? I released a breath I didn't was holding.

He huffed.'Hey! I'm not that younger that you okay?' She laughed.'Yes,you are! I'm 22,what are you like 6?' He rolled his eyes,'Ha ha.Very funny.' He replied sarcastically.

She looked behind him,her eyes fixed on mine.'Who's this pretty young lady?' She smirked.Izek turned to look at me,'Tara,this is Cupcak- I mean Scarlett.' He spoke to Tara throwing an arm over my shoulder, holding me tight.'And Scarlett,this is my cousin,Tara.' I smiled brightly at the word 'cousin'.

'Hey! I'm glad to meet you.' I greeted with a smile.'Nice to meet you too!' She smiled.Dayum,she's really beautiful.

She winked at me,'Are you his girlfriend?' I froze, blushing furiously. I dared myself to look at Izek.'Ah-um..n-no we're not dating.' I spurted.She glanced at us with a twinkle in her eyes.'Sure sure, whatever you say sweetheart.' Izek glared at her,giving her the 'I'll kill you' look.She just laughed it off.

She walked to Mercedes to pet her.'Sorry about that,Tara can be a little too straightforward?' Izek muttered to me.I laughed,'Um,no problem.But why is she here? Is she the one who is looking after Mercedes?'

He nods.'Yeah,she lives here.' He admitted blankly.'What?! Here? Why? Where? How?' He laughed at my curiosity,'That's a lot of questions but yes,here.She's here because she's taking care of Mercedes.We have a cabin here and it has all the facilities for them.And FYI this forest is not like what you think,Cupcake.Our family owns it,it's not some random forest, it's completely safe and completely beautiful. I'll have to take you inside one day.Okay?' He smiles,making my heart flutter.

I smirk,'You better Jerkface.' He fake-gasps.'Me? Jerkface? I have a completely sexy face,don't I Scarlett?' He speaks pressuring on the my name.'Ugh.' I roll my eyes and as I start to open my mouth for my sassy comeback, Tara interrupts.'Um,sorry for disturbing but I've got to steal your boyfriend for a minute.' I blush horrendously,again.'Yeah sure,no problem! And he's not my boyf-' She doesn't wait for me to complete my sentence and pulls Izek away,she throws me wink with a knowing look.She can't know I like him right?
