We Can Change It

Chapter 7

"Scarlett darling do you think the model should go dark or light?" Claude swirled his wine passing me photos. "Who were you thinking to use?" I lean back in my chair looking at the pictures. "Lina" I put the photos ,,,down and look at claude. He lifted his eyebrow and smirked while sipping his wine.

Lina was my Cousin she had golden tan skin, Hazel eyes with extremely long black hair. she's Indian, her family is still religiously attached to their culture. I only see Lina when Claude takes me on one of his round house fashion tours. Usually Lina is walking on the runway but when she's not she'll most likely be in the front row sitting next to Diego barrueco or Adam Levine. I'm not jealous or anything because I practically wear all the clothes she models for before hand.

"No. Not this time. You know how she can get when I'm with people. especially guys. one thing I'm not risking is one of my friends getting hurt because they "fell" for her ...Luke ahem" I press my hands in my thighs. "I was just kidding don't get so serious on me" Claude playfully punched my shoulder. "I'll call up Jena Ventura and see if she wants in." Claude walks away dialing a number.

*Chimes*

I look at my phone and see I got a text from Michael.

M:Scarlett whatever you do, don't come back to the hotel.

S:Why not ?

M: just listen don't.

I swipe away from the messages and call Luke.

"Luke what's going on?" I lean against the desk. "Um, Well..." Luke trailed on.

"C'mon spit it out what's happening." I ask desperately.

*Beep beep*

My phone died. Fuck. What the hell could be happening; "Scarlett I decide on Victoria because apparently miss Ventura is somewhere in Africa building schools." Claude looks up at me. My bag was draped across me as I slipped on my shoes. "Where ya going?" Claude raised an eyebrow. "I need to head back to the hotel because something is going on for some reason." I push open the door. "I'll try to make it back later tonight, if not I'll be here in the morning." I rush out.

I open the door to see Michael sitting on the chair. "Michael what's going on?" I run my hand through my hair. "Scarlett?! what the hell didn't I say don't come to the hotel?" Michael walks up to me an thumps my forehead.

"Aw hehehe but Ashton I missed you so much!!!" I push past Michael as he tried to block me and walked in the kitchen to see a girl with light brown hair, pale skin with green eyes wearing MY bandeau and shorts hugged up on Ashton. It didn't bother me that she was pretty and she had her big boobs pressed all over Ashton. It was the fact that someone gave her my clothes. "Um who the FUCK is this and why the FUCK is she wearing my FUCKING clothes!" I yelled. "Calm down Scarlett. Please." Luke popped out of nowhere grabbed my waist as I jumped towards the girl. "This is Danielle." Michael looked at me. I stared hard at Ashton who looked down. "Of fucking course this is Danielle." I have a sarcastic laugh. "Danielle Launt you just stepped clear over the line. First it's my guy now my clothes I think you better leave now." I glare at her and storm out to the balcony. " Okay Scarlett you need to chill the hell out." Michael and Luke walk out with me. "Oh I'm chill I'm cool I'm totally okay." Michael and Luke exchanged looks. "Okay I'm not okay what is she doing here?." I sigh. "I don't know she just popped up and went to take a shower and was wearing your clothes and clearly Ashton was uncomfortable when she was here and when he heard you talking to me when you arrived." Michael sighed. "And you know you just told ash you practically still have feelings because you called him "your guy" so.." Luke leaned back and forth on his heels.

*Ashton's pov* ( early in the day )

- "Why're you here?" I sigh looking at Danielle. "I wanted to congratulate you on being number 1 and I wanted to talk to you about us." Danielle sulked. " over the phone would be nice, Danielle it's not a good time to be here." I put my hands on the counter. "aw hehehe but Ashton I missed you." She wraps her arms around my neck and presses against me. I stood completely still and uncomfortable. Scarlett pushes her way into the kitchen and begins calling Danielle out. I stared at the ground unable to look at her. I can feel her eyes bolting at me.

Luke and Michael escorted her to the balcony. I looked at Danielle. "Well isn't little miss Scarlett a hothead." Danielle smirks. "Wait.. how do you know Scarlett?" I squint at her. "I had my assistant do a little research on her." Danielle winked. " You're the worse.. get out now." I sigh.

Scarlett's POV

"Scarlett I'm sorry I didn't know --"

"Please, Ashton... I'm not in the mood anymore. We can talk about it later..okay?" I grab his hand. "Sure" he gives a weak smile. I walk into the hotel room and throw myself on the bed letting out a big sigh. "Knock Knock" I lift up to see Claude hiding behind luke. "I never thought I'd hear a storm come up out of you darling." Claude laughs. "Why're you here? two and if I want to stand firm I'll put it out there." I sat back. "well you left so suddenly I thought I'd check it out and see what's wrong" Claude frowned.

"Well I'm okay.."

I didn't feel okay I feel like I just practically turned into Godzilla because I wasn't thinking I was upset. ugh I'm such an idiot.
