Scarlette's POV
"Thank you for dinner Ms. Dolan." I smiled wiping my mouth with a small white napkin that I was provided with.
"No problem, I'm glad you liked it." Ms. Dolan smiled in return.
"Where is the trash can?" I asked scooting my chair back and picking up my plate and napkin.
"Oh here I will take it for you. Hand me your plates too." Ms. Dolan said taking the plate and napkin out of my hand then taking Ethan and Grayson's.
"Thank you." I replied sitting right back down.
Babe: Hey I think I can come to the hotel if you want
Babe: Do you just want to be alone tonight??
Babe: I will understand if you do I'm just curious
Babe: I'm not going to bed until you reply
"Are you going to get that?" Grayson asked slouching back in his chair and tapping his pointer finger on the table as if he was annoyed.
"Uh no it's probably nothing." I replied locking my phone and putting it in my back pocket.
"It's obviously something because they won't leave you alone." he argued and rolled his eyes.
"Guys!" Ethan whisper yelled and we stopped talking.
"I'm going to go upstairs. Goodnight." I said before kicking my chair behind me and jogging upstairs.
Scarlette: hey baby sorry I was eating food and I as watching a show but yeah I think I do
Scarlette: I just need time to process him leaving
Babe: Okay just lemme know if you want me to come over at all;)
Scarlette: kk I will
Babe: what did you have for dinner?
Scarlette: some spaghetti
Scarlette: have you eaten??
Babe: yeah I had a burger and I'm about to eat some ice cream because why not
Scarlette: lol you should give me some
Babe: come over and I will
Scarlette: will your parents let me??
Babe: idk but if they don't ill sneak you in my window
Scarlette: okay I'll try and sneak out
Scarlette: I'll text you when I'm outside
Babe: okay see you later babe:)
*knock-knock*
"Who is it?" I asked but without an answer the door opened and Grayson walked in and quickly closed the door. "Uh yes?" I asked.
"What are we going to do?" he asked with worry and concern on his face.
"What do you mean?" I asked kicking my legs over the side of the bed to face Grayson.
"Like while you are here because we can't constantly argue it's not only going to drive me insane, I know that at some point it will drive you insane too. So any ideas?" he asked walking over and sitting down on the other side of the bed. I turned around and sat with both of my knees against my chest.
"I don't really know. I don't want to argue constantly it's just awkward." I admitted and I could see that he was a little bit shocked.
"Well how about we work into talking again. Like we can start by only talking when we need to then we can work into talking normally. Does that work?" he asks and my phone buzzes before I can answer. I decide not to answer until Grayson and I are done talking.
"That sounds good to me but what about at school?" I ask automatically thinking of Carson and what he would do if he knew Grayson and I were talking again.
"We can just not talk to each other at all until everyone calms down and we get used to being around each other." he answers and I smile.
"Okay that sounds good." I say. He opens his arms for a friendly hug and I gladly take it. We hug for what seems like forever then he gets up and walks out. "Wait!" I blurt.
"Yes?" he asks a little startled by my outburst.
"What do I tell Carson?" I ask and I can see the shiver run down Gray's spine when I bring up his name.
"You can tell him if you want but you would have to start standing up for me and stuff like that. I would suggest keeping it on the DL until he starts easing up on me." he smiles weakly and I send one in return.
"If he does." I whisper hoping he didn't hear me but he did.
"He probably wont." Grayson sighed before walking out of the room and closing the door.
I open my phone remembering that it buzzed earlier and when I open my text it is a picture of the ice cream Carson is eating with a following text that reads, im waitingggggg.
Scarlette: yeah yeah yeah I'm coming just wait one second
Carson: the ice cream might be gone by then
Scarlette: NOOOOO
Carson: lmaoo then you better hurry!!!
I open my door slightly just to make sure that no one is around. Almost all the lights are off besides the light in Grayson's room so I shut my door quietly and slip on my shoes. I open up the door and hop onto the roof then climb all the way to the ground. I look up to my window and make sure the coast is clear before running off to Carson's house.
Grayson's POV
"So did talking to her go well?" Ethan asked turning off the tv then walking back upstairs with me.
"Yeah you could say that." I smiled. I was really happy that she talked to me and hugging her made me even happier.
"So what exactly did she say?" he asked putting his shoulders behind him on the railing.
"We basically just came to an agreement. We will start off by only talking to each other if we have to then ease our way into normal conversations and at school we will keep everything on the down low until everyone calms down about us." I said trying not to smile too much because I was trying my best to play it off as if I was just okay with what happened not too excited.
"Well cool. I'm kind of surprised she actually talked to you." he laughed and I rolled my eyes with a smile. "Alright well we have school tomorrow so I'll see you then. Night bro." Ethan said patting my back as he walked into his room and shut the door.
"Night." I whispered.
I stood in the hallway for a minute trying to decide what I wanted to do, go to bed or try and talk to Scarlette again. I scratched my arm and let out a small shriek.
"You alright?" Ethan asked opening his door quickly to reveal his not even half dressed body. He was only wearing underwear so he stood back a little just in case Scarlette walked out.
"Uh yeah I just stubbed my toe." I said quickly and he shrugged before going back to his room and turning off his light.
I decided that I would try and talk to Scarlette once again but when I opened the door she wasn't there. I walked in a little farther to see if she was sitting at the desk but she was no where in the room. I noticed the window was open a crack and I realized that she left. Not for good, but she left.
