[I'm. In. Deep. Shit]
Scarlett's POV
Thankfully for the next few days I hadn't heard from Courtney or her hoe wannabes. She didn't show up for any of the detentions she had, which earned her even more time in there. It was late Thursday night when I got a text from Vincent.
Hey Scar, you awake?
-Vincent
Slowly opening my sleepy eyes, I struggled to move my fingers across the keyboard of my phone.
Hey Vincent, yeah I'm awake
-Scar
Ok good, sorry but I gotta cancel our date tomorrow night. I have a family thing, is Saturday alright?
-Vincent
I reread the text about twenty times to and sure I knew what was happening. Even though I was a little upset that he canceled, I understood that it was for his family. I guess I was zoned out in my thoughts for some time, soon I got a text from him again.
Are you mad?
-Vincent
No, I was busy with homework. Yeah, Saturday works for me.
-Scar

On Friday morning I told my friends that Vincent had canceled our date. So on Friday night, I got a text from Brooke that tonight was our 'Girl's Night Out'. I was not really in the mood to go out, but my friends wouldn't take no for an answer.
"C'mon Scarlett, you have to come! We're going to the carnival, and this is the only time of the year it's here!" Brooke whined, I shook my head no," please, it won't be the same without you."
"Yeah, you have to come!" Lucy pleaded.
"I'm not even ready, I look ratchet," I said motioning towards my sweatpants and messy bun," I'll just stay home tonight."
"No, you're coming with us," Naomi said while coming closer to me," even if I have to drag you there myself."
I tried to run away when I saw the crazed look in her eyes, but I didn't get far until I was tackled to the ground. Naomi may seem nice and sweet, but I swear that the girl is insane.
"Okay, fine I'll go! You didn't have to break my fucking spine to make me go!" I shouted at her, struggling to get her off of my back.
"It seemed necessary at the time..." she mumbled nonchalant.
I sighed and picked out a pair of red shirts and a black shirt with little skulls on it, matching it with my black converse. Reapplying my makeup a bit, and putting my hair in a fishtail braid.
"I'm ready!" I called to them from the bathroom. Once we were out of my house we went into Lucy's car. She turned on the radio and 5 Seconds of Summer's "She looks So Perfect" was on.
Simmer down, Simmer down
They say we're too young now to
amount to anything else
But look around,
We work too damn for this just to give
it up now,
