Scarlett ...Can't Be Tamed

21- Coming to terms

Coco drove Scarlett to go see Malachi, she was nervous for her and hoped he would come to his senses. She began wondering if he had other plans for her, but kept quiet about her thoughts.

He was always over protective of her, and the other girls saw it and was always talking about it. Could he be in love with her? She thought. She looked at Scarlett and then back over to the road, concentrating on the drivers around her.

Scarlett opened her door the moment Coco parked and walked quickly towards the building, Coco rushing to catch up to her. "Damn girl, slow down!"

They walked inside and over to Malachi's office, the door was shut and Scarlett knocked a couple times before opening the door. Malachi looked up and saw the two standing there. "What brings you two by?" He asked, sounding not pleased to see them. He looked back down on his desk and continued writing down whatever he was working on.

"I need to talk to you, and please don't ask Coco to leave. I want her in here with me."

He looked up again, and furrowed his eyebrows at them "You're not quitting, end of story." Scarlett sat down in the chair in front his desk "Please Malachi, you have to let me quit, you cannot keep me here against my wishes, if I want to quit, you have to let me."

He opened his bottom drawer and dug through his paperwork, pulling out her contract. He reached his arm out handing her the paperwork that she had signed. "Look it over and then tell me that you're quitting."

Coco walked over to Scarlett and stood behind her, reading the contract. Scarlett's heart began to race as she read it and threw it at him "I'm quitting, end of story." She said angrily, standing up. "There are clauses in it, and I have one that will void the contract."

Malachi stood up quick, knocking his chair over making the girls jump. "Malachi, I'm fucking pregnant. You cannot make me do this." She spoke while he walked around the desk, walking towards her.

He stopped walking when she spoke, not sure if he heard her correctly "You're what?"

"I'm pregnant." She said quietly, sitting back down and crossing her legs. He looked at Coco, and back down to Scarlett, bringing his hands up to the back of his head. "Woah" He walked back over to his chair, picked it back up and sat down, leaning back in his chair, swaying it from side to side.

"You see, the contract is now null and void." Scarlett said with a smirk.

"It may be null and void, in that contract that you signed, one of the things that you were suppose to be doing was to be using birth control." He said in a serious tone. "I need you to do this event, it's a huge money maker for me, and you're the one that they insisted on."

"Well it happened, and I cannot change that it did." She sat up straight and ran her hands through her hair "What if I were to train someone, someone that looks similar to me, or is just an good as I?"

"There's no way, they would know, besides you two are the best, and you've been trained for it, you both know how it works."

"I could train Bambi, she's good. I could train her day and night for the next couple weeks, she already does things the way that I do, I could even make her better at it."

He leaned back in his chair, staring at her while twirling the pencil in his fingers.. thinking. "You two train her, and a day before this event happens I want to see her performance. If she cannot do the job, you're going to be there."

Scarlett stood up and smiled "Thank you, you won't be let down. I promise you that." Scarlett and Coco walked out, both of them in smiles. "Wow, that went better than I thought it would." Scarlett said amazed.
