Emma's POV
"Emma?" Logan questioned, as if he was trying to register that it was actually me. I stepped inside as he shut the door, avoiding his puzzled expression. I could tell he was shocked and didn't know what to make of the situation.
"We have some unfinished business," I said as I turned to face him. I could feel the anxiety in me begin to form, but I needed to stay calm. I had to.
"What do you want?" He said slightly annoyed, "whatever it is make it quick, I've got producers from ABC here ready to shoot a special on me. God, you really ruined my career over this, you bitch. Now I'm trying to clean up your mess."
I could feel the sweat looking at the base of my hairline. The anger inside me was on the rise but I needed to stay calm and talk through this rationally. I wanted closure. I started walking towards the back of his house, guessing I'd eventually find the living room. If we were going to talk I wasn't going to do it in the foyer. I slid past the cords and made sure to keep my distance from the crew setting up. What Logan did to me was unspeakable, but I wasn't going to make a scene in front of professionals.
"Where are you going?" Logan said as he rushed up to me. "To your living room. We need to talk and I'm not about to do it by the front door." We reached the living room and I found a comfy chair to sit on while Logan leaned against the couch across from me. I just needed to get some things off of my chest if I wanted any chance of getting over that terrible night. I felt like he stilled owned me and I wanted to take my life back. I looked around to make sure the crew was a safe distance away before I started talking. I could see them setting lights up right outside of the living room but it looked to be a safe distance away. "You know what you did was fucked up," I said, staring at Logan. It didn't phase him, so I continued. "You're probably wondering why I came over, and part of me was wondering the same thing as I rang your doorbell... I'm here to get my life back." There was a slight pause before Logan chimed in.
"It's not like I killed you. Get over it, so we fucked, didn't mean anything to me," he shrugged, I could feel my anger steaming through my veins, "you know, if you really wanted to get over this you could've just fucking followed through with the gift I sent you. I gave you an out and you were too pussy to take it, kind of your fault for dwelling on it."
I couldn't believe what I was hearing, I was actually at a loss for words.
"Also while we're on this topic, why the hell did you even release that video? Do you have any idea what kind of pain you caused me? It almost ruined my career." His voice was getting louder, but I wasn't going to be blamed for something that wasn't my fault.
"Excuse me?? My fault? You're going to sit there and complain how I made things difficult for you, how all of this is my fault.." the tears were starting to pool, "Logan you fucking raped me!"

Ethan's POV
I hopped out of the Uber and heading inside to find the keys to my jeep. I briefly questioned if going after her was the right thing, I didn't want to come off as controlling, but I needed to know she was safe. After all she has gone through and her near death experience I felt like I couldn't completely trust her to take of herself. I started heading towards the 101 and thought I'd try and see if I could find her without calling. Unfortunately, traffic started to get dense and I soon found myself stuck bumper to bumper. By the looks of it, I'd be delayed for awhile so I decided to text Emma and see if she'd respond. Right as I was about to open her contact I got a call from Grayson.
"Hello?" I said as I focused on changing lanes. "Where are you?" Grayson asked, I could tell by his voice something was up. "What's wrong? Is it Emma? Have you heard from her??"  I started to panic inside. My mind raced to the worst possible situation, which was that she killed herself. I felt the tears welling in my eyes, how could I have been so dumb? Why didn't I go after her sooner? I could have stopped this. I promised to keep her safe. I'm such a failure, I-
"E? You there?" I snapped out of my head and realized that I never gave Grayson a chance to tell me what was up. "Huh? Oh yeah, I'm here." I waited, scared for what he was going to say. "When we get off this call turn on the ABC livestream channel." "Why? I'm stuck in traffic and need to find Emma," I swear if he wanted me to stream ABC for some dumb news show, he's sadly mistaken.
"E... Emma is on ABC."
