Scarlett P.O.V

It's February and we are finishing the film already. I'm still with Ryan and he is a wonderful boyfriend but a part of me still wants to be with Chris. After we finish, I have to go to England to film another movie. I kinda feel bad for him but I need to keep going with my life. My career is finally taking off and I am not going to put all of that away just for a boy that I'm not even dating. Well of this sucks because I have to see him today. We are having a party for finishing the film and he has to be there. Fuck! I really like him. Why! Why him? The one person that I can't have. Maybe he does like me back. Stupid! Stupid Scarlett! How can he like you? He only sees you as a friend. FRIEND You hear me? FRIEND. ugh stupid me. 

I get out of bed and go to my kitchen. I'm going to have a calm and nice day at home and then I'll go to the stupid party. 

"Scar! You up?" I hear Ryan yell. Fuck! I forgot he was here. Shit. Shit. Shit. I need to get him off of my tail. And he only knows two people here. Fuck I can't believe I'm thinking this but I have to call Chris. 

(Bold is Scarlett)

-Hello?

-Chris, It's Scarlett. I need a favour. 

-Okay. What's up? 

-I need you to take Ryan off of my tail. Take him to lunch or something. I need a day for me. I don't have any filming today. 

-Okay. I'll come pick him up and we'll go somewhere. At what time do you want me to bring him home? 

-I don't care just late. Before the party of course. But you know- 

-Yea yea. Okay. Bye! Love ya! 

 (End of call) 

As I hear Chris' voice saying that, I get butterflies in my stomach. Did- did he just say- Love ya? Oh my god. A part of me wants to think that It's just a friendy love ya but another part of me wants to think that it's a more that a friend love ya. When did life get so difficult? 

"Scar? So you are up. You okay?"

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I?" I say trying to hide the fact that I'm crushing on another man. I mean yea I love Ryan but this crush on Chris is hitting me hard right now. 

"I don't know. It's just, you've been distant these days and- I don't know. It's probably just me in my head. Sorry. Oh and Chris texted me. He wants to hang. I'm going to go. I'll be here before the party don't worry." He says this and gives me a kiss on my forehead. Today is going to be a long day. 

"Bye!" I shout to him. I lay back on my bed and sigh. "Why is life so difficult?" 

(Enter ringtone. Bold is Scarlett)

-Hello? 

-Scarlett, It's Alicia. You okay? You sound down. 

-I'm not okay. Wanna come over? 

-Yea sure. I'll be there in a sec. Bye! 

-Bye! 

(End of call)

I sigh and stand up. I walk towards my kitchen and prepare some coffee. 

"I'm here!" I hear Alicia call. I open the door and see her with a big bag. "Aww. My poor baby." She says this whilst hugging me. I give her a weak smile and drag her inside. 

"What's with the big bag?" 

"Well I knew you were sad or something and I knew it would take all day to get you happy again, so I brought my clothes and makeup for the party." I smile at her and say,
