"It's not." I said. "Luke you can't tell Zac, it will tear him apart." I said. "Why?" He asked. "Because, it was me that left a few years ago, I am Scarlett. Corinne. That's me, i'm the reason he is like this. I can't let him find out either." Luke's mouth was open. "Why did you leave him, he was devastated. He was going crazy, we put him in a ward." I started to cry, "I really did that." I said with all my breath. "Sadly." He said rubbing my back. "But why? Why did you leave?" He asked. "I... I ha- had to. I was doing drugs myself. Like ever since I was 14. Zac knew, we'd known each other forever. I could imagine it being painful. I couldn't go to jail again. I thought it would benefit us if I left. And started over, but I don't think so now.
Zac opened the door to see me crying. "Now what's wrong." He said. "I'll go back out now." Luke said. He patted my shoulder and left. "What did he do?" Zac was very protective, and when you show you like him. He'll be there for you. "Nothing, I swear." I stopped leaning on the table and stood in front of him. "When do you get off?" I said quietly. "Same as you." He said. I was trying not to be seductive, because that's not what it is. I wiped my tears and walked out.
ZAC'S POV
"Luke, what did you do?" I said. "Nothing. Zac chill." Luke said. "Don't lie. Did you hurt her?" I pushed him. I was fused. Why would she want to come over, when she has a boyfriend and she was crying. "ZAC!!" Lindsey came running over I looked down and Luke was on the floor with a bloody nose. "What." I sighed not noticing I did that. I walked outside leaving her to help Luke. I reached in my pocket and called Felecia.
*phone call with Felecia*
Z: I need some more.
F: Zac, you need help. This is you 9th bag this week and it's only Tuesday.
Z: Just. I need it.
F: Uh. Fine.
Z: Thank you.
F: You're not welcome.
Z: I'll give you more than money if you come over.
F: I thought you said you liked this other chick.
Z: She's not serious. She can't make up her mind.
F: Whatever.
Z: I'm serious. I'm getting off in a few. Meet me at my place.
F: Okay.
*end of call*
I walked back inside after finishing my piece. She was sitting up and Luke was laying his head in her lap. "Luke. I'm- sorry. I didn't mean it, I was angry." Luke slowly nodded accepting my apology. I now see why she likes him, he never gets mad or anything. She was rubbing his head. Then he sat up and kissed her on the cheek. I could tell he really liked her, and he probably deserves her more. "Fuck." I signed out and left. I went and got in my car and then she came running out. "Wait, I have to check out. "No, don't come. I can't tonight." I rolled my window up and drove off. I got on the highway and went to my house.
Felecia was sitting out side my door. "Hey babe." I unlocked the door and we walked. She gave me the bag and I handed her the money. I put it in a cabinet and sat down next to her. "I don't want to sell this anymore." She said. "What. Why?" I said. "I want to make something out of myself." She said. "Don't be a Scarlett." I opened a bottle of beer.

AUTHOR'S NOTE
So, I figured i'd be a little more interactive. Sorry this chapter was short, and a bit crappy. I am using this as an info chapter, meaning... It's strictly for you to get information about upcoming chapters. aka filler chapter.
What should I say at the end? Like as our little code.
I have been obsessed with the names Tanner and Joey. -no, they aren't from Full House. I am marrying a Tanner or a Joey. UmAgErhdd. I can't right now. Almost all, again using the word almost, Tanners are cute.
Anyway, you guys have lives. Keeping living. :)😊
