"In other circumstances, I would've made you all mine" he whispered once more his eyes scanning me from head to toe. I felt my knees weaken, he winked, leaving me standing there unable to move a foot. Does he have to tease me this way? God!! This boy, is going to be the death of me!!

View MoreScarlett’s POV:I watched as Anthony made his way towards me, I backed away, still staring at his black eyes, not smiling back. “Scar…come on, didn’t you miss me?” he asked, “I think we should text Eric to come” I started, “what? Seriously?” he said, I gave him a serious look.“Yeah, since you’re afraid to stay alone with me!” I snapped, his eyes widened, “That was nothing!! Scar, you got it wrong…” he started, I shook my head making my way pass him.“Scarlett….Please, listen to me!” his voice was louder this time. “And why should I listen to you? I mean, you didn’t even bother to tell me you were going to London…do you know how much I was hurt? Do you know that I spend the whole night looking for you everywhere?” I said, feeling my eyes watering just remembering that night.“I was supposed to party my winning, but I found myself shattered…” I added, “Scarlett listen…” he said, closing his eyes, seeming sad, and hurt.“No…you listen...can you imagine how bad I felt when I had to find
Scarlett’s POV:I was still not convinced, how could Anna ask something like that? “He’s a really nice guy…” she was still convincing me. She glared at Nat, trying to get some help from her, “You got nothing to lose, you were trying to push everyone away lately” Nat stood, and approached me. “You’re all messed up, you really need to stop making excuses like studying, or…come on, you even started cooking!” Nat shook her head, as if that was the worst thing ever.“Steffen dies!” I snapped, she gasped, placing a hand on her heart, “And so Enzo…and guess who killed him, it was Steffen!!!” I said middle fingering her, her eyes widened, I could see Anna’s arms crossed over her chest.“IS THAT TRUE!!!” Nat yelled, staring at Anna, “NO!! She’s just messing with you!!” Anna said, pulling Nat in a tight hug, and gave me a deadly glare.“If I agree to go on that blond date…can you stop all the drama?” I said, I know already that that blond date won’t work, because I was sure and certain that I w
Scarlett’s POV:“What?” I asked, my mother was talking as if she had just won the lottery, “Mom…he didn’t call, it’s just another game…” I said, she shook her head, “No! Wait, why would you say that? This is your best friend, and he didn’t leave” she added, “He just left because Megan wanted a closure” she said, I opened my mouth to say something but didn’t even bother.I started to walk upstairs, but mom grabbed my hand, “He’s not a bad boy, you think I’d let my daughter love someone like that?” she said, I sighed, “What do you want me to say mom? I can never believe Anthony, he really screwed up this time!” I said, “Even if he was back, I don’t want to talk to him, like never…” I said, she gave me a surprised look.And with that, I went upstairs, but when I was about to enter my room, I stopped, turning around slowly, looking to his empty room that was opened. I sighed, shaking my head, then stepping inside my room.Then suddenly, my phone started ringing, I didn’t bother to see who
Scarlett’s POV:The shock left me breathless, “Are you okay?” Sophie asked me, “Are you sure?” I asked her, my knees trembling, “Positive, she told me this morning!” she said, seeming honest.My eyes widened, he left? Was that his plan from the beginning? To be everywhere around me, to create this whole new world of caring, loving and protecting, and then disappear? Just like that? And take everything with him to London, with Megan…I nodded, “Thank you for telling me” I said my voice cold, Sophie gave me a concerned look. It was the first time that I couldn’t react, or show I was in pain, maybe because I was getting used to it, I mean it wasn’t the first time. He had done this before!It was so hard to focus inside the class, it was literally the worst day of my life, never felt so needy, or weak before now. Staring at the void, spacing out, and not having any idea what was going on around me.*****************“I had no idea…I swear!” Eric said on lunch, I was still staring at the vo
Scarlett’s POV:I had a horrible pain in my stomach, I felt like I want to puke from the shock, I was completely shocked, shattered and confused…Was he pretending all the time? Our friendship was just a game? Why would he do that? Why would he offer to go somewhere and then he ask for backup, saying he doesn’t want to be left alone with me…I could feel my knees weakening, and I couldn’t find him anywhere… but I knew who to talk to, I knew who had the answer.“ERIC!!!” I yelled, walking towards him, feeling frustration, madness and almost ready to throw up my heart from pain.“What is it?” he asked, seeming worried, “what is this?” I asked him, showing him the messages. He narrowed his eyes reading, suddenly his eyes widened, “is that Jason’s phone?” he asked, changing the subject.“Answer the damn question…” I said, opened his mouth to explain, “It’s not what you think…” he started, I shook my head, “okay then…tell me what am I supposed to think?” I asked, “Listen, you really have to
Scarlett’s POV:He placed the necklace around my neck, his breaths tickling my neck, I couldn’t believe he was so close to me. My heartbeats accelerated wildly, as if my heart could never beat faster than that. But I realized I was wrong, my heart could beat faster than that, because Anthony’s words made me lose my mind…“You’re so fucking beautiful, Scar” he whispered, and I was so messed up, I closed my eyes, but suddenly, I opened them to notice he had already pulled back, his eyes still staring at me.“Thanks…” I looked away from him nervously, feeling myself blushing, “how do you feel?” he asked, like I’m about to lose my mind?“I honestly don’t know…I just know that I want to do this” I said, he smirked, “I know you’ll nail it there! I heard you playing, and it makes me feel so good Scar…” he finished, his eyes looking deep into my eyes.“Thanks for everything…” I said, opening the door, and step outside his car.*****************I was holding my violin, heading to the back sta
Scarlett’s POV:I froze, Anthony’s hands on my waist. Our eyes locked for what looked like ages, but suddenly…“Anthony!!” it was a familiar girl’s voice, Anthony and I both looked at the girl, who wasn’t alone, she was with Lucas.“Emilie?” we both said, a wide smile on her face, “yeah!” she said happily, walking towards us, I glanced at Anthony who cleared his throat, and let go of my waist nervously.“What are you doing here?” Anthony asked her, “Just hanging out with my brother, before tomorrow’s competition” she explained, “you’re one of the competitors?” I asked, she nodded, I looked at Lucas, why the hell didn’t he mention that before?“I swear I had no idea…” Lucas said when he saw the confused annoying look on my face, “Yeah, I didn’t think it was a big deal…” she said, I glanced at Anthony who was still glancing at me, but he looked away nervously when our eyes met.“It’s good you’re here…” Emilie said, looking at Anthony, who shrugged, “do you want to split up? And go have
Scarlett’s POV:Anthony’s face was inches away from mine, his hands cupping my cheeks, and his eyes were roaming my over my face, “and there’s something else that you should know…” he said, his face so serious, and I can tell how nervous he was.“I knew it!!! I knew you left me for her!” Megan’s voice interrupted us, Anthony’s eyes widened, and I couldn’t believe she got the nerve to come inside my house after she asked him to move out, and choose her over me.“What the hell are you doing inside my house?” I said, walking towards her, she raised an eyebrow, “I came to apologize, because I was leaving tomorrow, and because I thought I was wrong about you and Anthony since I confirmed that there was nothing going on between the two of you…oh well, I guess I was right!” Megan said, approaching me, “is it her weird hair? Or her ugly face?” she said, pointing to my face, looking at Anthony.“MEGAN!!” he yelled, walking closer to me, he stepped in between us. I was shocked, I had no idea wha
Scarlett’s POV:I couldn’t believe that the competition is tomorrow. I was all stressed out, the winner would have a chance to go to Oxford the college of art, and it was my big dream!But I was having a bad issue, I had a lot to do lately, that I forgot to pick the dress I was wearing for my performance. Not just that, I was really worried and not having any idea what to play.I put my violin on my desk, it was getting annoying, and it was getting late, but the same issue kept popping on my head, what should I play? I wanted something unique, something to guarantee me winning.And there was something else, Anthony was avoiding me lately, and I missed him so much. Eric said that he didn’t want to distract me from practicing, but I was so sad thinking he wouldn’t even call to ask if I was doing well, or if I wasn’t stressing. Didn’t he miss me like I missed him?I could feel a tear falling down my cheek, but I shook my head, I won’t think about him! not anymore, but I thought to myself
Scarlett's POV:"what?" I said in a surprised tone to my mother who just told me that Anthony is coming back from London and he's going to live with us…“I wanted to let you know before he's here, which by the way is tomorrow" mom finished saying as if it's not a big deal.How could she do this to me? The guy who once was my childhood best friend, who once stopped being my best friend and hurt me…is now going to live with us. It's been a long time since we talked or met, it's been like twelve years.And now all of sudden he’s moving back here, and live with me under one roof…"Honey, I know you need some explanation…"she continued saying when she saw the confused look on my face, well duh?...I certainly need an explanation or a reason why I’m accepting this new turn of events..."Mom, you know how much he hurt me, how can you do this to me?" I stood and was ready to leave the kitchen...I was no longer myself."It's all in the past and now you're not kids anymore, he was six then... h
