Skater Boy

Chapter 6

Offical 

Mason

Sugar Plum: seriously! I'm in lock down! If I leave the house, I have to tell them exactly where I'm going and who I would be spending time with!

Me: so our date tonight? Is that happening?

I waited a few moments, and no reply.

Me: Sugar Plum? Are you okay?

Still no reply.

About an hour later, an hour of nothing but me checking my phone, I was standing around with the guys when my phone rang.

"Sugar Plum?" I asked as my girl's face came into view over FaceTime.

Scarlet's face broke out into a smile, her hair was pinned up setting off the white headphones.

"Hey Mason!" she says softly. "my parents have taken my phone, but I'm still in for tonight. I'll just sneak out the window and meet you at your bike."

"Hey Scar!" Alfie yelled behind the keyboard.

"Hey Alfie!" she replied, "sorry I didn't realise that you were with the guys, or that practise was even on." Scarlet seemed a little saddened by this.

"You okay baby?"

"No!" she cried out, tears welling up in her eyes. "My father took my phone when he saw our texts, I've been 'forbidden' from seeing you, Mason! I can't live like this! I want to be able to see you and your friends! Fuck! I love you so much!" Scarlet burst into tears, and I immediately just wanted to go to her house and hug her and make sure that she was okay.

"Sugar Plum, I wish I could be with you right now,"

"I wish I was with you too!" she cried.

"Did you want me to come and get you?" I asked, fully prepared to drop my guitar and run to my bike.

"No, if you do that, I'll never be able to go out tonight."

"Okay, so what time do you want me to get you?"

"I'll be out the window by 6." She said, her eyes drying up and a small smile happening on her face, making my heart warm. "Bye guys," she said waving at them.

"Bye Scar!" they all yelled back.

"Tell Egypt to use my fucking number!" Rock yelled, Scarlet and I looked at each other.

"Who?" we both ask.

"Cleo!" Rock breathed out like we were supposed to know exactly who he was talking about.

"Uh! Right! I'll let her know after her date!" and with that Scarlet hung up, leaving the whole 'Cleo on a date' thing to hang in the air.

"Fuck!" Rock dropped his guitar on his stand and stomped over to his phone, that was charging on an amp. "What the fuck does she think she's doing? Dating after we..." Rock shook his head and slammed his fingers on the phone.

We all kind of just looked on, we had never seen Rock act like this, he had always sworn up and down that he was never going to be tied down to one pussy – his words not mine – his mum and dad have the most complicated relationship, they were together one minute and then the next they were bringing different people home to make the other jealous. Rock had been watching this for so many years. His family was one of the reasons that I am thankful for my parents.

"MOTHER FUCKER! I'M GOING TO KILL SCARLET!" Rock bellowed, snapping my head over to him I glared. What the fuck was he on. "That little minx! Cleo was never on a date! How could I have fallen for something like that!" Rock stomped back over to his guitar and looked at us all. "Well... I've got to get my anger out somehow."
