Vic's P.O.V

It's been a few days since we all went over to Ally's and I feel like shit for making a move on her. Not only do I feel bad about probably scaring her shitless, but I also feel bad because of what I'm doing to Scarlet. She deserves so much more than just being a replacement for Ally, and I knew I had to let her go. Sure, I cared about her but it wasn't anywhere near as to how much I care for Ally. Not to mention, I've been ignoring Scarlet since that night. I've had to have the guys lie to her and tell her I was sick whenever she came over.

I knew I had to tell her, but I just didn't know when or how. Tony suggested that I just say things aren't working out and never let her know that she was just a rebound in the first place, but then I argue with it and say she has a right to know. But now I'm beginning to agree with Tony. It would devestate her if she knew the real reason.

I would also hate to have her find out from someone else though. I groaned loudly before leaning back on my bed, and closing my eyes. Ally hasn't been talking to me either and I honestly don't blame her. I probably scared her by being so forward. I'm such a fuck up sometimes. There was a silent knock on my door, before it slowly opened to reveal Jaime. "Scarlet's here again." He said, sympathy hidden in his voice. "Tell her to come here." I sighed. Better sooner than later. Jaime nodded slowly before walking back out to the hallway.

Seconds later Scarlet stepped into the room with a worried expression on her face. "You feeling better babe?" She asked, sitting down next to me on bed. "Umm, yeah." I mumbled, taking her hand in mine. "But that's the thing." I started, nervousness beginning to take me over. She flashed me a confused look, but then her eyes turned sad. She knew where I was going with this. "It's Ally, isn't it?" She asked, laughing dryly. Fuck, this girl is good.

"Uhh, yeah." I admitted. "Listen, Vic. This isn't the first time I've been used as a rebound. I just want you to know, that I don't hate you. I knew from the minute we walked into her house that something was up. That you guys had some sort of history. So I did my research. You guys were basically inseperable." She said, squeezing my hand. "You're being really cool about this Scarlet." I told her, smiling.

"Because I'm cool. Go for it. Get your girl back." She smiled. I noticed her eyes well up with tears, as she began sitting up. I grabbed her wrist, and pulled her back. I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her into a tight hug. "Thank you so much. And no one should be used to being a rebound. You're an amazing girl. You'll find someone." I assured her. She wiped away a stray tear from her face, and lightly kissed my cheek before turning around and heading out.

That was easier than I thought. I really hope we can still be friends. She seemed extremely sweet and caring.

Alysha's P.O.V

I laid down in my bed, blankly staring at the ceiling. Not talking to Vic has proved itself to be harder than I imagined. All I have been able to do is think about his lips on mine, and the way his fingers traced over my scars. I shuttered at the thought of his touch. I was pulled out of my thoughts by the growling of my own stomach. I've been thinking about Vic so much, that I forgot that I was hungry apparently. I jumped out of bed and jogged downstairs to the kitchen.

I scanned through the various items in the fridge before I found what I was looking for. Strawberries, and Hershey's chocolate syrup. I licked my lips as I pulled out the items. I could practically taste the wonderfulness I was about the experience.

With my hands full, I began walking back up the stairs. I felt my phone begin to vibrate in my pocket, signaling I had an incoming call. I began running up the stairs and threw everything down on the bed before taking my phone out and checking my caller ID. A name that I haven't heard in years lit up my once dim phone screen.
