-Scarlett’s POV-

After work I ended up coming home to nap. Amanda and I stayed up talking for majority of the night last night.

I awoke to a pounding on my door. Still partially unconscious, I thought it was Austin. I got up quickly and ran out to my apartment door. I opened it quickly and found Alan on the other side. Quickly, my demeanor changed when I saw that he was crying.

“Alan what’s wrong? Oh my god.” I said.

“She’s in a coma.” He said and broke down crying more.

“Come here” I said as I pulled him into my arms and into my apartment.

He was shaking so badly. I just sat with him in my arms on my couch. I knew that Alan couldn’t take much more of this insane life. He had been through the ringers as well.
I don’t know how long we sat like that, but he finally pulled away.

“I’m so sorry, Scar, I didn’t mean to come in here like that and just, I’m so sorry.” He said, now up and pacing.

“No, Alan don’t apologize.” I said.

“Face it, you thought I was Austin.” He said.

“I was asleep…I thought I was dreaming…I don’t know…” I said.

I don’t know how it happened, but next thing I knew, Alan was kissing me.

He pushed me down on the couch and got on top of me as we continued making out.

Neither of us stopped.

It flashed me back to the time we dated and how we were…how I got scared at the end.

I pushed him off.

“Holy shit, Scarlett I don’t know what’s wrong with me.” He said pulling at his ginger locks.

“No, I don’t know what just happened. I’m sorry.” I said and went into the kitchen to get water. What the hell am I doing?

As I came back into the room I heard Alan on the phone with someone.

“What do you mean you can’t explain it?” he said.

I looked at him and he turned to me with panic in his eyes.

I mouthed “What?” to him and he just shook his head, listening to who was on the other side of the phone.

“I can’t believe this, you of all people aren’t this damn selfish! You didn’t just leave me, you left her and I’m not letting you get off that easy!” he shouted into the phone.

Oh my god.

“No Austin. You listen to me. I’m standing next to her right now. I can’t just tell her this call never happened, cause unlike you I never want to hurt her more then what I have. Life is short you know this.”

Austin called. Austin’s okay. Alan was talking to Austin. Oh my god.

“Yeah you better regret it. She loves you. I told her that you would always come back for her. Don’t you dare fucking prove me wrong Carlile.” He said.

Alan’s begging him to come back for my sake, what.

“If I don’t hear from you again for god knows how long. I swear to you that I will hunt you down and kill you.” He said and hung up.

“Where is he, Alan?” I said.

“Scar, please sweetie don’t get your hopes up.” Alan said carefully.

“Alan!” I said slightly raising my voice.

“Scarlett, I can’t have you mad at me! I can’t do this!”

“Damn it Alan! Tell me he’s okay! Tell me he moved on! Hell tell me something!” I yelled.

“He ran, he doesn’t want anything to do with any of us at the moment.” He said looking at the ground. “He doesn’t want you.” He now said looking me in the eyes.

I’m so selfish. I dropped to my knees. That was my final blow, my final straw, I broke.
