scarlett:

since grayson, ethan, and i left school, we've been at my house doing nothing. at first, we all got food at raisin canes, which was good. when we got home, we all went into the living room, and i got to watch ethan and grayson horribly dance together to music. now, we're all in my room talking about random stuff.

"so scarlett, do you think you're gonna go to college?" ethan asked.

"no." i replied.

"why not?"

"can't afford it."

he nodded his head at my answer.

"what college would you of wanted to go to?" he asked.

"well, my brother went to standford. i know that's really far fetched for me because he used to be a legit genius, but to follow in his footsteps would've been nice."

"interesting, interesting."

"very."

"i'm tired as hell, im going to sleep." grayson piped up.

"goodnight gray." ethan said.

"goodnight e."

"goodnight grayson." i smiled at him.

he smiled back at me, then followed with a "goodnight babe."

i felt my cheeks heat up, starting to blush.

"we should leave, and let him sleep." ethan suggested.

"okay." i agreed.

he grabbed my hand and pulled me off my bed. we walked out of my room and down the stairs, going into the living room and sitting on the couch.

"can we talk?" he suddenly asked.

"uh, about what?" i became nervous.

i know he's going to talk about jack, or kathryn, or both.

"i think you should tell grayson about jack." he said.

fuck.

"ethan, you know i can't." i sighed.

"but why? wouldn't you rather him find out about those pictures through you rather then gilinsky?"

"yes, obviously. but i rather him never know."

"i know what you mean on that, but it's going to come out somehow."

"maybe it won't."

"scarlett, jack's making you have sex with him to not leak the pictures. there's no way you would have sex with him while you're with grayson, right?"

i let out a sigh, "you're right, when should i tell him."

"whenever you want."

"i will over the weekend. i'll ask him to sleepover, and i'll tell him then."

he smiled at me, then put his hand on my shoulder. "if he gets mad when you tell him, let me know. i'll talk to him."

i nodded my head, "okay, thank you ethan."

"no prob, it sucks to see you have all this stress on you, you know?"

"yeah, it sucks having all this stress."

"well, grayson and i always have your back, okay?"

i nodded my head at him, he's right.

i'll always have him and grayson, and im extremely thankful for it.

"bye scarlett, thanks for having us over." grayson said, coming in for a hug.

"thank you for coming over." i smiled, accepting his hug.

during our hug, he looked at me, and planted a quick kiss on my lips.

"okay okay, enough sappy shit." ethan cut in, pulling grayson off of me.

ethan then pulled me in for a hug, and i hugged him back.

"remember what we talked about, alright?" he whispered, so only i can hear.

i nodded my head, and he pulled away from our hug.

"stay safe." he said to me.

"okay, thanks ethan."

after we all said a final goodbye, they left my house, leaving me alone.
