It was all for Toby?

I abruptly slid from my stool, snatching my purse shut as the bottom wobbled.

“Inform me it’s not true,” I whispered as tears flooded my eyes. “Inform me you weren’t fucking me to seek out grime on me for Toby?”

All of them fell deathly silent.

“Inform me!”

“It wasn’t like that,” Lucas spoke up. “I met you earlier than I even knew who you have been.”

“And after?” I snapped brokenly.

“Initially… sure,” Sebastian mentioned, his voice tight. “Toby did ask us to seek out out about you, so we ran into you however— Scarlett, every little thing after that was all you. We informed Toby the place he might stick it as a result of all of us noticed how superb you might be. All of us fell for you, we?—.”

“You used me?”

Sebastian faltered. None of them might communicate.

I pushed Danny’s arms away as they approached me, after which I turned and ran.

The group break up like my coronary heart, giving me a path to stumble by means of on unsteady heels.

It wasn’t actual. They weren’t actual!

I needed to get out of right here.

LUCAS

“Scarlett!”

For a girl in such excessive heels, she melted into the gang impossibly quick. Pushing previous dancing our bodies and indignant spectators making an attempt to hearken to Toby’s speech, I fought my approach by means of in a lower than dignified trend, however Scarlett was gone.

Fuck!

Why couldn’t Toby preserve his rattling mouth shut?

Even when it was true. Even when Scarlett’s emotions and my very own meant she deserved the reality. It shouldn’t have occurred like this.

She didn’t need to study that from her drunk brother at a ridiculous social gathering proper after revealing that she was falling in love. That was such emotional whiplash that by the point I made it across the crowd and reunited with Danny and Sebastian, I felt sick.

“Any signal of her?” Sebastian barked out.

Each Danny and I shook our heads.

“Fuck!”

“We must always have informed her,” Danny mentioned. “And far sooner.”

“Perhaps,” I agreed, one hand on my hip.

“There isn’t a possibly,” Sebastian mentioned firmly. “She deserved to know that we met her that approach. However every little thing else after…”

“I don’t suppose she’ll care,” Danny mentioned, his face crestfallen. “She gained’t care that we fell for her, that we love the hell out of her. All she’s going to see is that we met her whereas making an attempt to assist Toby and I— I don’t blame her.”

I paced forwards and backwards, dragging one hand by means of my hair as I dialed her quantity with the opposite.
