Again, don't know Cub's personality but DEAL WITH IT >:)))
Scar's Perspective-
Cub and Scar walked out of the grocery store, talking cheerfully.
Someone skated by and Scar smiled as he recognized him.
"Hey Gri!"
Grian almost tripped and to fall.
Scar ran over and caught Grian just in time.
Grian opened his eyes and turned red from embarrassment.
Scar balanced Grian on his feet and Cub smiled as he walked over.
"Nice catch Scar." Cub said, holding Scar's hand.
Scar chuckled, "Thanks!"
Cub then turned to Grian.
"You alright, Grian?"
"Er- y-yeah! Sorry, you just distracted me."
"No, it was my fault, sorry." Scar said.
"Don't worry about it!"
"Well, Grian, of you're free you can have dinner at our place and hang out."
"O-oh, no thank you. I wouldn't want to barge in."
"Come on, it's been forever since we've last spoken, let's hang out!"
Grian but his lip but nodded.
-
"So Grian," Cub said, passing Grian a cup of tea, "What's new?"
"Nothing." Grian said, taking a sip of the warm drink.
"Nothing?"
Grian shrugged.
"Well you were going to California." Scar said.
Grian nodded, "Yeah I was with my parents for Christmas."
"And you were with another guy who was flying from California." Scar added.
"Oh...yeah, that's Mumbo."
"Oh cool! What's he like?" Cub asked.
Grian blinked in surprise.
"You- you're the first person who did't assume that we were dating."
"Well if you two were dating, I'm sure you would say that you were." Cub said, shrugging as he took a sip of his peppermint tea.
Grian smiled.
Cub then checked his watch and put his cup down, getting up and going to the kitchen.
"I'm gonna get started on dinner." He said, and Scar and Grian got up to help.
Cub chuckled, "I don't need help, thanks. You two stay and talk."
Cub then left.
Scar and Grian sat there awkwardly, drumming their fingers on the cup.
"So..." Scar trailed off and Grian nodded.
"Look, Gri, I'm sorry."
Grian nodded again, not making eye contact with Scar.
"I- I was really harsh with you back then and it's still actually effecting me."
"Has it?"
"Yeah...and I'm so sor- "
"Are you though?"
"H-huh?"
"Are you really sorry? If you were, you would've apologized to me before. It's been 13 years since we broke up. Why are you apologizing now?"
"I- because we're seeing each other again and- "
"We met each other 8 years ago and yet you didn't apologize. You know what you did?"
Scar stayed silent, though he knew the answer.
"You acted like we were friends."
"I didn't ac- "
"DO YOU KNOW HOW THAT MADE ME FEEL?!" Grian shouted.
Scar shut up, his eyes wide with fear.
Grian took a harsh breath.
"Do you know how you made me feel?" Grian repeated quietly.
Scar shook his head.
"You made me feel like nothing. Nothing at all. You made me feel like a piece of shit who didn't deserve anything. And I don't think I will ever forgive you for that."
Grian put down his glass and got up.
"Grian, wait." Scar said, getting up after him.
"No! I don't wanna hear it!"
"Grian, I'm sorry!! I know I hurt you and I know I was too harsh!"
"No! You told the truth! I am a burden, I am too much to deal with, I am a piece of SHIT!"
"No you're not! Grian you are a good person, I was just stupid."
"Yeah, you were." Grian spat.
Scar winced at the tone Grian used.
"And I'm sorry. The truth can be harsh and I should've- "
"Lied?"
"No, I should've said it nicely. I should've done it in a better environment, I should've been better. You were fine, Gri, you alway were."
"But- you called me a lot to deal with and- and- and- "
"And that was wrong. I was a lot for myself to deal with. I was dealing with moving out and then I was dealing with my feelings for you. What I said then...I didn't mean it. All I meant was that my feelings for you changed. But you're not a burden.
"I- no...no you're lying, you're trying to make me feel better and- "
Grian cut himself off as he looked into Scar's eyes.
"Dinner's ready guys!" Cub called from the other room.
Grian and Scar jumped and Scar called back, "Okay!"
He then turned back to Grian.
They both laughed.
"You still wanna stay for dinner?" Scar asked, smiling sheepishly.
"I- ..."
He looked towards the door before back at Scar.
"Sure." Grian smiled.
