Scorpion lives in Arkansas, while Red lives in Washington. They first met because Red's sister moved to Arkansas with her family to get away from Washington for a while. During that time, Red was introduced to Scorpion, and the two quickly became close.
About a year later, Red's sister moved back to Washington, but Red and Scorpion stayed in contact. They spent hours talking and calling each other, and eventually Scorpion opened up about her past relationship with Knox. Before Red met her, Scorpion had been dating Knox, but the relationship ended badly. The breakup hurt Scorpion deeply, and things became even more complicated when Red started hearing more details about what had happened between them,One day, Red received a call saying Scorpion wanted to kill herself. Around the same time, Red's sister also called, explaining how badly the breakup with Knox had affected Scorpion. While everything was happening, Red and Knox were messaging each other constantly. Their conversations were chaotic and emotional, like a roller coaster that never seemed to stop. Red tried to stay patient and waited for things to calm down.
Eventually, Scorpion became exhausted from all the fighting and drama. Wanting peace, both Red and Scorpion blocked Knox and cut him out of their lives. After that, things slowly settled down, and Red and Scorpion went back to simply talking and calling each other like before. Over time, Red started learning Italian for Scorpion because Italian was the language Scorpion spoke at home.
