•Scarlett's POV•
Breathe. Just take deep breaths. Maybe I was scared that he would turn into an octopus, and use his tentacles to choke me to death. Maybe I was just paranoid. Or, maybe I knew I did something I wasn’t supposed to do. Yeah, that’s it. Say something, c’mon just say something Scarlett, say something before he-
“Something tells me, you wanted to kiss me as much as I wanted to kiss you.”
Too late. I flinched slightly, almost unnoticeable, when he moved his hand over to my face, pushing some of my hair out of my face.

“It’s hard to explain. I guess I thought you liked Harry.” I moved my face out of his touch.

All along it was a fever
A cold sweat, hot headed believer

Round and around and around and around we go

Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

A guy comes a long, dares her to actually give him a chance rather than just letting him be another fling. It petrifies her to open up her heart because she has become a master at being numb...” He turned his face, and waited for the song to continue, as if wanting to take in the words they were singing.
