Scarlett POV

I like to cry every so often. It clears my head. I feel so much better after crying.

When I finish crying I wipe my eyes and laugh.

I feel so stupid for crying, I'm not a little girl anymore.

I get off my bed and strut down the stairs.

The boys are watching a movie so I sit in my usual couch spot, next to Liam.

Will still hasn't come out of his room yet, I don't mind, though, it's nice to just hang with the rest of the gang.

When I sit down, I get some concerned stares from the others.

"Are you alright?" Zach asks.

"I'm fine!" I say, cheerily.

What does he mean? Oh wait, my cheeks are tear-stained. I really should've washed my face before I made an appearance downstairs.

"Are you sure?" Zach asks.

"Yeah, I am now!" I respond.

"What does that mean? What happened?"

"Well, I'm a girl so I cry at stupid things."

"Such as?"

"When people don't feel the same way as me."

"Oh"

"Let's just forget about it and watch the movie then."

"Er..ok.."

Zach presses play and we watch the movie. We always watch movies, I've just realised that.

The boys keep staring at me so I move further away from them, I move into Will's seat.

"What if he comes down?" Parker asks.

"What?" I ask.

"Will, what is he decides to come downstairs?"

"I don't think we have to worry about that." Liam answers for me.

After a few moments of consideration, I decide to speak up.

"I'll be back in a minute." I state.

I hurry off upstairs and I stand outside of Will's door. Should I knock on his door?

*knock knock*

I did it, I feel so brave.

"Who is it?" He moans.

"It's me." I reply.

He takes a few seconds to answer.

"Come in."

I enter his room, closing the door behind me.

"About earlier.." He starts.

"Yeah I'm sorry for that." I apologise.

He turns to face me.

"You did nothing wrong, I'm the one that should be apologising."

"Yet, you haven't."

"Listen, I'm sorry Scarlett. I'm sorry for not greeting you, I'm sorry for not looking at you and I'm sorry for not caring."

"You don't care?"

"Of course I care, but when you left my room, you said that I didn't."

"Yeah, I didn't mean that, I was just upset, that's all."

I can feel my stomach churning, oh crap.

"I've got to go, I'll be like 2 seconds."

I dash to the bathroom and throw up. Oh no. This can't be happening. I grab my phone from my pocket and text Brayden.

S: BRAYDEN

B: Hey Scarlett.

S: Do you remember the night when we.. You know...

B: got it on, yeah why?

S: Did you use protection?

B: Crap

S: BRAYDEN

B: I was drunk, I'm so sorry.

S: Oh my god, no no no no.
