As Scarlett picked her clothes out of her newly un packed wardrobe, she was once again seething with jealousy. She knew she was being insane: some friend who just SO HAPPENS to be a girl wants to meet the cast. Nice. Nothing to be literally on fire about, right?

they all decided to meet at a little ice cream shop, once again.

As she had finished getting dressed, Walker facetimed her. And she almost didn't answer. Almost.

"Heyyyy" he chirped happily
"Hi!" Scarlett answered, cheery despite the growing unease and annoyance in her stomach
"whats wrong? dont you dare say nothing" this was the most serious Walker had been since Scarlett had met him, which was a week or so ago

"what? n-nothing" Scarlett stuttered
"Scarlett." Walker got even more serious, which despite everything, just made him even more attractive.

Scarlett sighed "can i be.. honest with you?" she was terrified of his reply.
"yesss?" he questioned, suspicious
she suddenly regretted her decision "uhm, i feel a bit sick, im not sure i can come. Im sure its nothing"
He blinked. "thats what you wanted to be honest about?" he giggled "ok, but for real, please get better very soon because we meet in an hour"

Scarlett felt a knot in her gut "ok, i will" she smiled "see you soon!"
he grinned widely "see ya"

oh no.
She sighed and continued getting ready, putting her shoes and mascara on.

suddenly, there was a knock on her door as Leah pushed it open.
"heyy! whats up? How are you feeling?" she smiled brightly, shutting the door behind her and sitting on the edge of Scarlett's hotel bed
"not great" Scarlett replied, sitting beside her

"aww, whats wrong? Anything to do with a certain friend of a certain boyy?" Leah loved to tease her about Walker apparently.
"maybe?" Scarlett said, but it was no use as Leah already knew.
"im sure it'll be fine, don't stress yourself out" Leah comforted "besides, your gorgeous, you dont need to worry your pretty head about a thing"
"you sound like my mom!" Scarlett lightly hit her on the arm.
"ALSO! Walker literally just facetimed me"
"oh my god! Ok, 1: did you answer? and 2: what was the conversation?" Leah was on the edge of her seat.
"1: yes, i answered and 2: i must've looked as nervous as i felt because he went SO serious asking if i was ok, which, to be very honest, i found myself very giggly on the inside, and i was gonna tell him what was wrong but i got nervous and told him i felt sick" Scarlett finished her mouthful of a story, a big stupid grin on her face just thinking about him.
"oh god, well im happy your giggly but thats a lot. Did he see through the excuse?"
"nope" Scarlett replied.
"wow" Leah grinned "well, we should definitely get deeper into it on the walk down. Im gonna get my bag but we need to walk very slow if im gonna get all this info" Leah giggled.
"of course" Scarlett smiled "you go grab your bag and i'll grab mine and we'll go!"
"sounds good"

Then it was time to leave
* Well, if things go wrong i could always move back to New York.. no, i need to be mature about this* Scarlett thought

as they stepped out the door, her nerves bubbled in her chest.

*here i go*
