I look in the mirror, a short, but reasonably long plain black dress hangs off my body and my black pumps in hand. My dress shows off a lot of cleavage, not that I really have much but still. I wouldn't normally wear it but Scarlette insists I begin to wear more girly clothes. I feel uncomfortable so I grab my leather jacket and throw it on.
"Okay, is Scar ready?" I ask and all the boys look up from their phones to look at me. Their eyes go wide and I look to my feet.
"Coming!" Scarlette screams from her room and I look back up.
"Bee, you..." Ashton begins but trails off, lost for words.
"Thanks," I laugh and place my shoes on his lap before walking to the kitchen and grabbing my phone off charge.
I can feel their eyes on me but I pretend I can't and check a few things on my phone.
"Shit, sorry!" Scar mumbles and hops out of the door while putting on her shoe. I stare at her with a smile. She's wearing a tight white dress that shows off her curves. She hates tight dresses. I know she's only wearing it because of what happened with Luke.
"You look nice," I say and she nods looking me up and down.
"You too, babe," she chuckles and grave her clutch. "We going?" She asks and I nod.
We get to the cars and Mike, Luke, Niall, Scar and I go in one car and the others go in the other. Scar gets in the backband Luke quietly says something to Michael before he gets in the middle. Scarlette looks to Michael then to me and scoffs. I start the car before looking in the mirror and sending Luke a glare. He simply rolls his eyes and looks out the window.
Niall puts a hand on my thigh and I begin to drive to the restaurant. I move and turn the radio on. An Ed Sheeran song plays and I smile before looking to Scarlette but she's staring out the window, a terribly sad expression on her face.
"So the elephant," I begin and they all look at me confused. "The elephant in the room-car. Luke, what's going on with you and Scar?" I ask and Scarlette shakes her head before looking back out the window.
"What?" Luke asks and looks over to Scar and back to me.
"She told me, Luke. What's going on?"
"Fucking hell, Braeden! The Michael thing now this?" She yells and immediately covers her mouth.
"What Michael thing? The red thing?" Niall asks and I shoot him a warning glare.
"What is the red thing? What's going on?" Michael asks clearly confused and annoyed.
"Nothing," Scarlette hisses and Luke leans forward to look at her.
"What red thing?" He asks almost as a threat.
"Don't you fucking talk to me like that," she practically screams and Luke scoffs.
"What is it?" He asks not letting up.
"It's that while you were off fucking a different girl every night, I was here think there was something between us and not sleeping with him!" She screams at him and hits Michael in the arm.
"Ow," he whines like a child and rubs his arm.
I look to Luke who is staring out the window, a defeated look on his face.
"Okay, now that the elephant is out I-"
"Oh shut the fuck up, Braeden," Scarlette growls and I grip the steering wheel until my knuckles go white.
We continue to drive in silence until I pull over at the restaurant and Scarlette practically leaps out of the car. Michael follows quickly behind her as she scurries into the restaurant. I watch them as Michael grabs her arm and spins her around and she begins a heated conversation with him. They seem to be angry at each other until he grabs her arm and pulls her into a tight hug. I look to Luke, who is staring at them intently.
