Damon's POV
I was at the grocery store,when I saw her. She had her head down, she was typing something on her phone smiling.

Who is she texting?

Her husband

Ugh!!! Maybe she does have a husband and the child isn't mine.

How could she move on??

Brov, you dumped her when she was in the hospital with no reason what so ever and she's supposed to wait for you or something.
Its been eight years, of course she moved on and fell in love again!.

I still need to explain things to her and let her know that I truly loved her and that I still do.

Jesus Christ! She's married, don't you get it??!!

I walked over to her and her smile disappeared once she saw me.

"I just want to talk" I said calmly.

"I don't!" She walked away.
"Scarlet, I'm sorry"
"Leave me alone just leave me alone!"

She checked out her things and left.

            
Scarlet's POV

Why won't he leave me alone???
I don't want to talk, I made that clear and how does he keep showing up everywhere that I am??.

I love you" he said.
"I love you too" I said kissing him.

You didn't love me, not one bit you just wanted to get in my pants.

I love you and I'm willing to wait"he kissed my forehead.

God! I was such a to have fallen for that!

"Scarlet?"
"Hmm?"I looked up to see Char with a frown.

"Why the face??" I said taking a her hands as she sat beside me.

"You! You're the reason"
"What do you mean?"
"You saw Damon again didn't you?"
I nodded.
"I know you still feel something for him but girl, you need to forget him and move on. I know he's the reason you don't want any other man in your life but I'm sure as hell, he don't give a fuck about you and you need to do the same!"

"Its not that easy. I've tried but I just can't" I whispered, avoiding her eyes.

"I'm here for you,if you need anything, I'm here. I'll always be here."

"Thanks"
"Good, its Saturday so we are going to the club!" She smiled.

"Who?" I asked
"The two of us" she replied.
"What of Dior, I can't go."
"Shut up!. Ruby's coming over tonight."
"How? She didn't tell me!"
"Because its a surprise but you made me ruin it. Now we need to get dresses" She stood up pulling me out of the bed.

"Yeah,but we gon' pick Dior up from her ballet lesson first"
"Whatever! Let's move!"

*********

The club smelled like alcohol and sweat from people who were rubbing bodies. The music blasted through the speaker.

I scanned the place and immediately regretted my decision to come.

"Let's go home" I whispered in Char's ears.
"Bitch, no. We just got here!"
"Yeah, but I don't feel comfortable"
"Bitch,you need to have some fun, geez live a little.

"Yeah but..."
"No buts! Have fun!"

"Hey, have you meet Scarlet?" She  said tapping a random guy.

What are you doing Charlotte??!!.

"Uh, hi" he said with a smile. I couldn't make out his features the lighting in the club was really great.

"Hi" I chipped.
"I'm Maddox"
"Scarlet"
"This doesn't seem like your scene"
"Yeah, how did you know?"

He shrugged" you don't look it."
"That's true. My friend made me"
"Well same here, I just wanted to stay at home"
"Me too!" I chuckled.

"What do you say we get outta here?" He suggested.
"Yeah, I'd like that"
"Should we tell our friends?"
"Nah, let's just go"

"You bitch!"Char yelled with a big smile as I walked through the door.

"Hey"
"You got laid, didn't you!"She grabbed my arm and pulled me to the couch.

"I did not!"

I did. well, not really

"Who you lying to??"
"Bitch, I didn't get laid OK?"
"Yeah, sure. So why are you coming home now?"
"Bitch, we both went to the club yesterday and you disappeared with some guy and now you coming back home now! Which in case you don't, its Sunday!" .

"OK, fine I did!"
"I knew it!.So how was it??"
"Where's Dior?"I asked going to my baby's room.
"She's still sleeping!"
I smiled at the sight of my baby sleeping peacefully.

"Alright, enough of the mommy thing!"Char said with a smile.
"Tell me about your night!"
"I don't want to talk about it. I just want to have a nice bath and go to sleep".

"oh no it wasn't good was it?"
"No, because when we started kissing, I moaned Damon's name!"

"Why would you do that?!" She screamed.
"I don't know! It just slipped, I don't know how but it did!"

I stormed to my room and banged the door.

I stripped my self and got into the shower.

"I love you" he said.
"I love you too" I said kissing him.

He held my face with both hands and deepened the kiss, setting my entire body on fire. His touch always did that to me, I can't explain it.
I subconsciously sat  on his legs, running my hands through his hair.

He moved his lips to my neck, raining kisses down to my cleavage causing me to tug on  his hair.

His hands left my face and were holding my butt firmly, well more like squeezing them.
His lips moved back to mine, and this time with more fire and desire. I increased my pace to match that of his desire.

What is happening to me??
Why can't I just let go of these feelings and move on.

He never loved me and I haven't stopped loving him even after all the pain he caused me.

How can you still want a person who made you suffer.

How can you still want to hold and be with the one person that broke you??.

What is even wrong with me?

Its love, true love

True love my ass. I don't want to be in love, not with him at least.

I don't want to feel this way any more. I just want to be free form all this pain I keep feeling because I can't get him out of my head. Even when I try not to think of him, I end up thinking about him.

Do you regret what happened with him?

No, as much I want to, I don't. I don't want to lose those memories, they are painful to think about, but I don't want to lose them.

I  still love Damon, that's just the truth. He had my heart and he could break it into two but when it heals, it beats him and only him.

Hi, did y'all see what I did there? Bet you did!
Moving on, so Scarlet is still in love with Damon and she can't help it.  I've been really lazy lately and I was having major writers block.

Y'all ever heard bruises by Lewis Capaldi, that song had me crying so hard.
Plus is fits Scarlet's situation so well.
