Scarlet's POV

I was on the couch watching a movie when a knock on the door made me pause the movie.
"Gimme a minute"I said to the person at the door.
Or an hour

Those crutches were impossible to use. After what seemed like forever, I finally got to the door and found Emily with a little suit case and a smile.

"Hey girl, how's your ankle"she asked giving me hug.
"Its getting better, not trying to be rude but what you doing here?"
She chuckled"Damon asked me to come and stay with you. He wanted to be sure that you're going to fine without him"she explained.
"Oh, come in"I stepped aside for her to come in.
"He didn't have to do that,I'm fine"I said picking up my phone.

"I'll call him"
"No!"She snapped.
"His very busy, you can't call him"she said, taking the phone from me.
"OK, would you like anything?"
"Oh my dear, Scarlet. I'm here to serve you remember not the other way round"

"If I need anything I know where to get  it so don't you lift a muscle or less Damon will kill me if I let you stress yourself"she smiled.

I chuckled and continued to watch my movie.

**********
Emily made pasta for breakfast before heading out for class. After she made sure I was comfortable and had everything I would need.

I couldn't stop thinking about Damon, I wondered if he was in class already. Maybe I should I call him.

No, what if he is in class and you distract him?

I sighed and dropped my phone. I hate being stuck in here.

Ugh! It so boring and lonely.

"Pebbles?"I heard the door open
"Damon?!"
His figure appear in my room leaping,bruises on his face and a wounded lips.

"Oh my goodness!"I said covering my mouth with my palms.
"You look horrible"I cried..
"Gee, thanks" he said and kissed my forehead.

"What happened?" I said touching his face and he hissed in pain.
"Sorry,how did this happen?" I asked again.
"Its not important, did she come over?" I nodded.
" You still haven't told me what happened to you" I said sternly.
"Forget it okay?" He said.

Forget it?! Did he just say I should forget about his wounded face.

"Are being serious?" I snapped.
"You are leaping,and your faces is bruised and I'm supposed to not worry?"

He sighed and ran his hand over his hair.
"Where the hell were you at last night Damon?"

"I was kick boxing with dad,okay?"he said defensively.
"Are you sure?"
"Why would I lie to you Pebbles?"
"Well...."
"Let's just forget about it, how is your ankle?"he asked.
"It getting better. Not as bad as before"I said.

"Why are you not in class?" I questioned.
He shrugged "I had to make sure that you are OK and I won't be going for classes until you get better. Don't even try to argue with me" he said and walked  away.

"Where are you going?" I called out.
"The kitchen, need anything?"
"A bottle of water"
"Yes my queen"

My phone buzzed and it was a call from an unknown number.
"Hello?"I said as I picked the call.
"Is this Scarlet Walter?" A soft voice asked from the other side of the line.
"Whose asking?"I said
"Well it her grandma,her mother's mom"the person said and as those words hit my ear, the phone fell out of my hand and to the floor.

"Hey!"Damon said in alarm, he walked in as soon as the phone fell.
"What wrong? whose on the line"he picked up the phone and spoke to the person.

"No this is her boyfriend"
"Yes"he nodded.
"I'll let her know ma'am take care" he hung up.

"Pebbles are you OK?"
No answer.

How?how is that possible?
Where on earth did she get my number from?
What the bloody hell does she want from me,after all these years. What could she possibly want from?

"She wants to see you"Damon said sitting beside me on the bed.
"Why?"I snapped.
"Calm down, she just wants to talk"he said with a shrug.

Talk?about what?

"What the fuck could she possibly want to talk about?"I asked bitterly.
"Maybe she wants to make things right and  reconnect with you"
"I don't want to reconnect with anybody"I said sternly
"OK but could you please think about it,she's your grandma after all"
"OK, first off no!She isn't my grandma. She just happens to be the mother of my mother who she disowned"

He sighed as he took my hand in his."I get it that you're hurt, I see that but listen babe, she's realized her mistake and is trying to make amends"

"Well don't you think twenty one years is a bit late!" I said.
"Its never too late. You don't have to make a decision right now just promise me you'll think about it" he said softly.
"Yeah,I'll give it a thought but no promises"
"Thank you" he smiled and kissed my hand.

"How the hell did she get your number though?"he asked
" I don't even understand what's going on!" I replied in frustration.

I agreed to meet with Mrs Daniels, yes that's what I called her because she isn't my grandmother.

I wore a knee length dress with black and white strips. I put my hair up in a ponytail and wore black flats.

We met her at a fancy restaurant.
She had mom's ocean blue eyes and blonde hair.
"Good day ma'am" Damon said with a smile as he gave her a side hug.
She came for a hug and I completely ignored her and took a seat. I saw  that my actions hurt her but I didn't care. She hurt me first.

"I see you are using crutches is everything fine?"
"Why do you care?"I snapped at her.
Damon held my hands and gave them a light squeeze.

"Look Scarlet I'm very sorry for what we did to your mother"she said avoiding my eyes.
"That doesn't change anything" I know I shouldn't be talking to her like that but I couldn't care less about her feelings.

"I know we hurt you and your parents so much but I need you to forgive me. I'm truly sorry".
"If only sorry could change the past. Damon, let's go" I said.

"But you just got here?" Mrs Daniels said in shock.
"Look I'm done with this. I can't forgive you, not right now. What did you expect? That I'll forgive you straight up. No way, ain't happening. I said to her
"I just want to go home." I turned to my boyfriend.
"Let my driver drop you" she offered.
"No!" I snapped at her.
" We don't need your help, Damon let's go!"
"Alright, let's go" he said

Well she wasn't nice to granny but I don't blame her.
What do you think about her granny showing up??.
Why do you think she showed up out of no where??.
