Overcome (Scott Eastwood fanfiction)

Chapter Ten

I have just under a month left of filming and then I'll be moving to somewhere new which isn't San Diego  and going with Scott for the Pacific Rim press tour and also I have the press to do for Slayer which I've been doing over the last week or two in New York and LA and I'm doing some in London when we go on our trip next week. I'm in the car driving back to my apartment when Scott calls "Hey baby" I say "Hey beautiful just checking in" he says "I'm heading back to my apartment and I'm gonna crash" I say "Feeling better I know you were a little under the weather" he says "What a British thing to say. I'm fine just a cold with a mild chest infection I'm on antibiotics and drinking plenty of fluids" I say "Your rubbing off on me. Feel better soon stay warm and I'll see you at the airport on Saturday" he says "I will love you" I say "Love you too" he says and I end the call. Truth is I've been feeling pretty down the last few days not just because I'm sick. My rapist has recently been released from jail and I haven't been handling it very well and I haven't told Scott so only my family know and my manager. It was always a possibility but I never really thought about what would happen if he did get out and my life has been so amazing recently that this has just turned everything upside down. I've been coping as best I can and there's been measures put in place to make sure he can't contact me or come near me. I make a decision to tell Scott when I see him this weekend.

It's Saturday now and Scott has just picked me up from the airport and has blindfolded me as he says he has a surprise for me. "Something I need to tell you first. I probably should of told you when I found out but I did that thing where I keep things to myself and let them build up and get me down before I finally talk to someone and you should of been the first person I told because your a huge part of my life now but I was scared so I didn't" I say "Your rambling beautiful" he says "The man who raped me nine years ago got out of jail a few weeks ago we've done things to make sure he  can't come near me or contact me but I've been struggling with it knowing he's out there especially with our trip next week" I say "He's never going to hurt you again because I won't let him. You've achieved so much in nine years he can't take that away from you. I'm by your side no matter what" he says "I love you so much Scott Eastwood" I say "I love you too Violet Murray" he says and we kiss. We get back to the house for the surprise "I was going to leave it til we got back from London but Geoff agreed to look after them both so I figured why not now" he says and I'm confused as to what it could be. We go inside and Freddie comes to greet us as always "You in on this too buddy" I say petting him and giving him a hug and then Geoff appears with an adorable little puppy "No way you did not get me a puppy" I say "I did he's a mix between a beagle and a German Shepherd house trained and all. I've been training him while you've been away" Scott says and Geoff hands him over "What should we call you" I say cuddling him "What about Logan. Fred and Logan has a nice ring to it" I say and he starts licking me "Logan it is" Scott says.

We are now in London for a week spending two days here sorting out things with my flat then we're spending the next few days in Reading with my family and then spending our last three days in Edinburgh. We're going to see my brother perform tonight as well as meeting up with some of my closest friends here in London. I have some press to do as the show is premiering here next week and I'll be back in Vancouver by then. I have a photo shoot and interview for a magazine with Oliver. So far the show has gotten a great response.

We are now sitting down for an interview with ODE the last one of the day with Melissa Nathoo "Welcome to both of you. Good to be on home turf again" she says "Definitely it always feels good being home" Oliver says "Congrats on your new puppy Violet he looks adorable" she says "Thank you I can't wait to get back to San Diego and see him. I'd bring him to Vancouver if I could but it's one more month" I say "You both deal with long distance relationships. How do you deal with that" she says "Communication is key. Even if it's just a text and we were both travelling back and forth and if the relationship is strong enough then distance doesn't matter" he says "Slayer airs here next week and I've seen the first episode and it's pretty intense alot going on" she says "I think with older characters you can be more intense and tell a darker story which was the aim with the reboot. Yes it's the same core idea but it's like a completely different show" I say "Is there plans for another season?" she asks "Definitely fingers crossed our writers have some ideas already if we do" he says "You two knew each other before you started working together on this. Was it easier to play romantically involved characters?" she asks "Yeah there wasn't any awkwardness and it's all part of the job playing the love interest of someone you barely know but it's nice when you get to work with a friend. We're not exactly on good terms at the start of the show but there are those lingering feelings" I say "There's some pretty incredible stunts in the show any injuries on set?" she asks "Lots of bruises I broke two ribs and dislocated two of my fingers, our stunt director pushes us to our limits as does our trainers. Violet had worse than me I think" he says "I dislocated my shoulder, sprained my wrist tore ligaments in my ankle and had a concussion. Was not fun and I'm just recovering from a cold and a chest infection so I've had a pretty rough time not that I'm complaining it's been an incredible experience" I say. We answer a few more questions and then it is time to go. Scott and I grab some dinner before we head to my brother's show.
