0.25 || I'm Happy

Scarlett quickly prepared for her 'hangout' with Chris. It wasn't that she forgot, she had just procrastinated. She had quickly dropped her puppy, Bailey, off at her brother's home, she couldn't stand the thought of Bailey being alone in her apartment.

A knock on the door slipped her out of her trance, even she hadn't realized how time consuming getting ready was.

"Coming!" She called as she slipped on her shoes.

"I can wait!" Laughed Chris from the other side of the door.

Scarlett abruptly opened the door before exchanging greetings with Chris.

"Hey...Hi, um, should we get going?" Asked Scarlett a bit awkwardly, the memory of her conversation with Ryan ensued.

"Let's. I just wanna catch up with you." Chris replied causing a smile to rise on Scarlett's face.

—————

Scarlett and Chris had decided on a near by joint, prior to their departure. Scarlett had been craving more then just what her diet called for, which she deemed 'rabbit food.'

"I'm so gonna send Cara a picture of this." Scarlett teased, remembering the conversation with her friends.

"Anything new?" Asked Chris taking one of the fries and tossing it at Scarlett's face.

"Rude, but yeah there is. Surprisingly." Scarlett added before taking a sip of her fizzy drink.

"Do go on." Chris urged.

"Well for starters, Margo asked the girls—that is Cara and Lily— and me of course, if we wanted to move to California with her."

"No way."

"What?" Scarlett asked with a hint of concern.

"I live in California." Chris replied to Scarlett's surprise.

"W-What? I thought you lived in New York." She responded with clear confusion.

"No, I'm staying with my sister, you know with filming going on." Chris's added, Scarlett nodded in understanding.

"I see, well the three of us accepted her offer, my brother is also moving to California. That dork claims he can't stand how cold it is here." Scarlett commented.

"Is he moving in with the four of you?" Asked Chris.

"Nope. He's planning to move in with my other brother, Adrian. You know him."

"So what's this about you being a Victoria Secret model?" Chris commented with a light smirk. The comment made Scarlett instantly go red.

"S-stop it!" Scarlett replied.

"Aww but it's cute seeing you all flustered." Chris replied before realizing what he had said.

"I-I mean I find it adorable—no not that either...just forget I even said anything." He replied hastily.

"Uh-huh Mr. Smooth here." Scarlett smirked.

"But yes, I auditioned and they loved me. It was surreal to me, Cara of course helped me out a lot and scored herself a spot as well." Scarlett finished.

—————

The sun was setting in the great city of New York as they both walked to Scarlett's apartment. All the while talking as if they haven't seen each other in ages.

"Oh, but there is one thing I wanted to talk to you about." Scarlett it was time to stop beating around the bush and come out and say it.

"Yeah?" Chris urged her to continue.

"Ryan, he texted me." Scarlett watched as Chris's jaw clenched.

"He told me that he was sorry. And that he was happy...that I was happy."

"I'm glad we left in somewhat good terms."

"Is that all he said?" Asked Chris.

Scarlett contemplated telling Chris what Ryan had told her.

"Yeah. But I am happy." Scarlett smiled at the memories of the last few months.

"Oh?"

"Yeah, and you made me happy."
