(Y/n) felt herself blush some more as she looked away from him in embarrassment and fluster. He chuckled again with a wider crooked smile and held his hand out to her.

"Care to take a walk with me?" He asked flirtatiously with a brow arched.

"Well..." She started softly with a glance up at him before looking away, she bit her cheek softly, "I just met you..." (Y/n) said coyly.

"And?" He retorted with a smile, "I just met you as well. Why don't we get to know each other?" The man hummed smoothly as he leaned close to her.

Biting her lip to hold back a soft giggle out of nervousness, "O-Oh... I don't know..." She hummed with a slight smile. He laughed lightly and it made her heart flutter at his laugh.

"C'mon, doll. You can trust me." He said as he gently took her soft and warm hands in his slightly cold and rough ones, she can't help the blush that got deeper, "So do you?"

Thinking for a moment and looking at him. He gave her a kind smile and she bit her lip as she felt herself her pulled into his kind gaze as their eyes locked on contact, "I-I suppose so..." She stuttered.

The man smirked as he held her hand and pulled the girl along playfully causing (Y/n) to smile and laugh a little as they started to walk with a skip in their step. She looked up at him as they walked and her eyes scanned his charming features, softly biting her lip as she studied his jawline and side profile.

Almost sensing her stare, the man looked down at her and smirked, "What's with the stare, chick?"

(Y/n) blushed harshly and looked away in embarrassment at having been caught staring, "N-Nothing..."

He smirked at the flustered girl, "Mhmm... Alright. By the way, I never caught your name?"

Looking up at his question, "Oh, it's (F/n) (L/n)." She said with a small smile up at him. He continued to smirk as he hummed her name to himself.

"(Y/n).... A pretty name for a pretty girl. I like it."

She let her smile widen with a bashful blush, "Thank you..."

"No problem, beautiful." He hummed with a smirk and continued to hold onto her hand, "I'm the Scorpion." He said while placing his free hand on his chest. 

(Y/n) hummed with her coy smile up at him, "That's a cool name." Scorpion's smile graces his painted lips.

"Oh I know." He said with a playful nudge.

They both laughed softly and continued to walk before entering a almost private carnival tent full of carnival props, "What are we doing here?" (Y/n) asked while looking around. Scorpion shrugged and pulled her over to a pretty closed in space so he was closer to her.

"Just thought we could get to know each other here... A place to ourselves for a few moments... To you know, bond~..." He purred lowly with a alluring smirk while he was standing very close to her. She felt her heart beat like crazy at his close proximity as she gulped nervously with a flustered gaze and blush. Scorpion chuckled at her reaction as he then went to a toy box and took out a candy wrapper. He opened it and took out a red ring pop and she giggled a little. "Something a little sweet to start off." He said with a smirk as he knelt down on one knee, taking her hand and putting the ring on one of her fingers before he gently kissed the back of her hand, making the girl blush madly. Scorpion smirked almost wickedly at her reaction before he stood up and leaned his face close to hers. (Y/n) watched him closely and thought he was going to kiss her as his lips ghosted over hers and her breath hitched in her throat. He then suddenly paused and pulled back a bit, making her look up at him in just a little of confusion, "Oh! I just remembered that I need to do something real quick. Wait here and I'll be right back."

Feeling almost bummed out, she grimaced softly with a soft smile up at him and then nodding, "O-Oh. Alright."

Scorpion hummed with a smile, "You trust me, right?"

Slightly confused by the question, she brushed it off and nodded, "Of course." She said and gave him a small smile. He smirked and winked at (Y/n) before taking off in a quick stride. The girl let out a sigh as she leaned back against a prop; waiting for Scorpion's return.

It's been almost a half hour since Scorpion left and (Y/n) let a slightly impatient huff leave her lips. "What's taking him so long...?" She asked to herself before grimacing as she decided to go follow him. After awhile of walking to where he might have possibly went, she arrived to a show area and froze in her step at the sight before her. In front of her, she sees Scorpion heatedly making out with another girl with his hands gripping her waist to pull her close while the girl wrapped his scarf around her hands to pull him deeper into the kiss. (Y/n) felt her stomach drop and she took a slight step back.

While she stood there in complete shock, the girl sensed her presence and stopped kissing him. The girl had one eye that was blue as the other eye was green. A frilly red and orange dress with a tight corset along with light blonde hair. She was beautiful. But the beauty was marred by a series of cracks that ran down the side of her face . 

Scorpion looked at the doll like girl in slight confusion before in the direction she waslooking and his dark eyes land on (Y/n) who still stood there speechless.

"(Y/n)..." He said, this situation felt too familiar and she didn't like it at all, "What are you doing here?" He asked while slightly glaring (Y/n) with narrowed eyes.

"I-I-I... U-Um..." She didn't know what to say as she backed away slowly, her heart racing as she wanted out from this. It reminded her of something. It reminded her of her manipulative exes.

"You said you trusted me! You liar!" Scorpion exclaimed almost accusingly with a angry gaze.

"I-I wasn't lying! I-I do trust you! I just... Um..." (Y/n) tried to calm herself down as she looked towards the exit, "I-I should go!" She could feel the anxiety wash over her as she began to turn around and walk away. The doll like girl nodded in agreement as she kissed Scorpion's cheek with a purr. Scorpion let go of the girl and hurried over to (Y/n) in a quick stride before he grabbed her arm in a tight grip.

"Wait," He said looking at her with a almost soft gaze, "Please. Stay." He said softly but still slightly demanding. Her eyes glanced between him and the doll, biting her lip and shaking her head in refusal.

"I-I don't want to get in your way with her... I'm so sorry for interrupting," She said quietly as her eyes were slightly brimmed with tears. This caused the doll girl and Scorpion to look confusingly at (Y/n) before looking at one another with the confused look. Almost like they were expecting something different from her. She looked at them before gently shaking his grip off of her arm, "I should be going... I'm sorry for intruding on you two." She said shakily before quickly taking off and leaving the tent. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she went.
