Scarlett POV

God, how could i be so stupid to loose track of time. I promised madeline i'd be there but i broke my promise. I bet sje must really hate me right now, or at least something bery close to hate. Our relationship has always been rocky but before i started working again things were better. Lizzie asked her to give me a chance an she did, but then the moment i started working and rose came home it's like we took 3 steps back. And now i've been stuck in this traffic for over an hour and i'm not even close to home, i know it's kind of my karma for losing track of time and hurting her again.

I just hope that maybe she can forgive me.

Madeline POV

All of us went spread over two cars so it was the boys in robert's car and the girls in lizzie's. Flo and i are in the backseet with baby blue, who is very excited to go home. I was concentrated on petting my baby until i felt a hand on my thigh, i look over at flo and she's looking out the window with a straight face. Did she do it on purpose or not? Blue got tired and put her head on top of it and i felt myself getting tired.

A while later i'm awoken by florence shaking me softly "darling we're home you need to wake up" she whispers and i groan. Once i open my eyes i see that i fell asleep on her shoulder but also that i put my hand on hers. I quickly sit up and pull away "yeah i'm awake" i say and she giggles "we have to go inside to eat something" she tells me and i nod. To get out of the car she takes her hand off my thigh and i immediatly feel cold without it.

When i get out of the car i check the driveway and i don't see her car so maybe i'm lucky enough and she isn't home yet. But when am i ever lucky, once i get inside i'm met by scarlett who has tears in her eyes. Man she's a good actress crying on command to make me think she feels sorry. As i walk past her she tries to talk to me but i put my hand up and simply say "nope" and walk further. During dinner i was really quiet because i was tired and angry and sad and dissapointed all in once. And to add the finishing touch i felt her eyes on me the whole time. And suddenly i've had enough of it "i'm really tired so i'm going to bed" i say and i go to my room.

Scarlett POV

When she saw me inside i saw something change in her face. And she didn't even let me hug her or say a word. The whole time she's been quiet and i couldn't help but keep looking at her hoping she might let me talk te her eventually. But luck isn't on my side today, she was going to bed. I was about to get up but a hand on my leg stopped me. I looked beside me and saw jackson looking at me "i think it's better to leave her alone tonight" he says "look i just want to talk to her and explain what happend and apologise" i tell hom but he shakes his head "i don't think that's the best idea right now. I know madeline and right now is better to leave it until the morning or she'll have a breakdown again" he says and i nod defeated.

The rest of the night i didn't hear anything anyone said, all i could think about is how i royaly fucked up. Again.

Madeline POV

As i'm getting ready for bed tears start flowing down my cheeks and all the emotions i held are let out. I sit down on the floor and blue comes sitting next to me and leans her head on me. I swear this dog is always here for me and everytime she does such thing my heart grows a size. I'm pulled out of my toughts when i hear a knock on my bathroom door "madeline it's lizzie can i come in?" I hear her ask and i smile a little. I swear this woman knows whenever i'm down and she's always there. "Yeah it's open" i say and she comes in and sits down next to me "hey monkey it's okay let it all out" she says and i put my head on her chest and i just cry in her arms.

After crying for gos knows how long my tears are used up . "Do you wanna talk about it?" Lizzie asks carefully and i nod "it's just all my emotions coming out at once. The nerves from the concert, anger at scarlett for breaking her promise, dissapointment because she wasn't there and most of all sadness because she lied. She promised me she'd be there and she lied. She lied when she said she wouldn't waste my chance because she did the moment rose came back and she started working again. But the biggest lie she told me was that she loved me." I say and lizzie looks hurt and i start crying again "why can't she love me auntie lizzie?" I ask and my voice breaks. "She does love you monkey i think she's just having a bit trouble showing you how much" she says and i shake my head "if she loved me she wouldn't be like this to me and she would've been there" i say in a small voice and i just cry. "Look monkey i think it's best that you just go to bed before you make yourself sick with all these toughts and if you keep crying like this" lizzie says anter five minutes and i just nod. We both get up and she wraps me in her arms "i'll always be here for you my little monkey" she whispers and gives me a kiss on my head "thanks auntie liz" i whisper and give her another squeeze.

I was suddenly awoken by someone getting in my bed and blue growling at them "i'm sorry i didn't mean to wake you darling" i hear flo say and i shake my head "it's okay. Just come here i'm cold" i say and she gets under the covers and i cuddle into her side. I try to get even closer to her if that would be possible and i hear flo giggle "you can just get on top of me if you wanna get closer" she jokes and to her surprise i get on top ot her and lay my head under her chin. We lay in silence for a while until i finaly decide to ask her "flo?" I ask softly "yes darling" she answers with her low voice "why did you stop texting me?" I ask quiet "i don't know why i did at first but when you stopped texting goodmorning and goodnight i figured you'd be mad" she answers me and i humm. Than suddenly another tought crosses my mind "flo" i say again and she humms "we never really talked about it" i tell her and i know she's confused "about what?" She asks "you know. The kiss" i answer quiet while looking up to her face and i feel her tense up a bit. "What about the kiss?" She asks "do you regret it?" I ask her unsure if i even want to know the answer "no i don't. Do you?" She asks me and i shake my head "not even a second" i tell her and i can see her smiling even in the dark. "I'm just a bit confused about what it means for us you know" i tell her and she nods. I feel her hands moving down on my back inching closer to my ass. "I don't know what it means but i know i don't want that to be the last time i kissed you" she says her face moving closer to mine "well how about we take things slow, like we can go in dates and stuff like that and see where it gets us" i propose with my lips hovering over hers. "Hmm i think i like that idea" she says before pressing her perfect lips on mine. Our lips mive perfectly together only breaking apart when air is needed, i peck her lips a couple more times. "Goodnight flo" i say and give her one last kiss before laying my head on her chest. "Goodnight beautiful" i hear her say before i drift of to sleep.

Tonight wasn't all bad.
