Uh yeah idk.

Tw: mentions of sex + slight lime?? Uh yeah. Cheating, general douche-baggery. Toxic scar, dumbass Grian.. Bad writing?

Chopping vegetables was a mindless activity, and that's why Grian hated it so much. Carrots, onions, shallots, peppers, garlic, whatever it was, his mind still managed to wander.

"You never loved me, did you?" Scar's words from last night bounced around his head, and he couldn't help but wonder.

Why would Scar ask that question? Of course he loved Scar. He loved Scar, from the bottom of his heart he loved Scar. Didn't he?

He nearly sliced off his fingers at how lost in thought he was, focus on the knife, Grian.

Grian let out a sigh, picking up his cutting board. He walked over to the other side of the kitchen, sliding the vegetables he was chopping into a pot of boiling water. He really needed to have a talk with Scar.

Ding his phone pinged with a text message, might as well check it.

One new message from: ImpulseSV

Strange, he didn't talk to Impulse a whole lot.

He opened his messages.

ImpulseSV: hey, you and Scar are dating, right?
Grian: yeah, why do you ask?
ImpulseSV: I don't know how to tell you this, but..

Impulse sent an image, and Grian's phone slipped from his hands.

"Oh my god.." he whispered, dropping to his knees with a sob.

Ding
Ding

Grians phone pinged twice more, but he couldn't bring himself to look, a tear sliding down his cheek.

He wouldn't have believed it if Impulse hadn't been the one to send it. Impulse couldn't- no, wouldn't- lie to save his life.

Didn't Scar love him?

His hands shook as he reached for his phone, flicking it on.

ImpulseSV: I'm sorry
ImpulseSV: I was restocking my shop and saw. Anything I can do?

Grian let out a sigh, his fingers clunky as they sprawled across his phone screen.

Grian: no ni it's finr, tbanks for showing me
ImpulseSV: anytime

Grian sighed, Impulse was too nice for his own good.

He switched to Scar's messages, ire brewing beneath his skin.

Grian <3: home. Now.

Scar took a minute before responding.

Scar <3: what? I'm in the middle of something
Grian <3: this isn't a debate
Scar <3: if this is about last night..
Grian <3: get your ass over here
Scar <3: omw

Grian sighed, turning off the stove. Dinner could wait. He went to sit down at the table, patiently waiting for Scar.

A few minutes passed before the door creaked open, revealing Scar.

"Scar? Come in." Grian hummed, tapping the table. He tried not to let his anger show, but it didn't take a genius to know he was pissed.

"You look angry, are you ok?" Scar asked, sounding as innocent as innocent can be.

"Thanks for asking. No! I'm not ok." Grians fingers fumbled as he unlocked his phone, pulling up his chat logs with Impulse. He selected the image, hands shaking as he showed it to Scar.

Scar and Bdubs, sitting on the steps of the town hall, lips locked as their figure were bathed in sunset light.

Scars lips creased into a thin line, he had been caught. He couldn't think of anything to say. What was there to say?

"What? Not even a sorry? Nothing? You've got nothing to say for yourself?!" Grian rose his voice, hand clenched into a fist, nails digging into his palm hard enough to bleed.

"Grian I'm- I'm sorry I don't.. I didn't.." Scar dragged his lip under his teeth, trying to sound sincere.

"How long?" Grian murmured, letting his eyes slide closed.

Scar let out a sigh, one little white lie couldn't hurt, could it?

Scar sucked in his breath, putting on his most sincere act, "it was just the one-"

Grian jumped out of his seat, slamming his hand down on the table, "dont you dare lie to me!"

"..since the election started." Scar murmured, wincing slightly at Grian's harsh tone.

"And you had the audacity to ask if I loved you?" Grian was fuming, eyes about to pop out of his skull from how hard he was glaring.

"What?" Scar questioned, knowing he was just doing damage control at this point.

"Last night, dont tell me you dont fucking remember. You asked me if I ever loved you while you were going behind my back and fucking some other guy!" Grian snarled a bit, stomach turning in disgust at the thought. Had Scar asked him, he may have been open to it, but to go behind his back?

"We weren't fucki-" Scar started, his voice firm and seemingly truthful. Scar may not have seemed it, but when it came down to it, he could lie his way out of a hole.

"Cut the shit." Grian spat. "Did you ever love me?"

Scar saw an opportunity, so he took it.

"Of course I did! I still do! Please believe me I really do love you, Bdubs means nothing. He doesn't." Scars voice was full of conviction. Bdubs meant nothing. Grian was his everything.

That's what hapless romantics usually say, wasn't it?

That so and so was their life, their blood..

Full of shit. All of them. Committed relationships? What a boring idea. Scar might have seen the appeal had he found the right guy, and no offense to Grian, or Bdubs, or Cub, or any of the guys he had dated in the past, but.. he was never a romance kind of guy.

"You're- you're full of shit." Grian said, voice strong. He wanted to believe Scar. He wanted to believe him with ever fiber of his being. He wanted to forget about the photo, forget about Bdubs. He wanted to love Scar. He needed to love Scar. What was he if not his love for someone else?

Scar was amazing, incredible, the best person Grian had ever met. He was so many things..

Was a liar really one of them?

"I'm not lying to you, Grian, Bdubs means nothing," Scar sounded truthful enough, in the few years Grian had known Scar he was a genuine guy. Would he lie? Especially about something like this?

"It was a one time dumb thing, I'll end it." Scar's voice was full of conviction as he spoke, Grian believed what he was saying. "I really do love you Grian, from the bottom of my heart, please forgive me?"

"I'll stop talking to Bdubs, please Grian, it was a dumb one time thing. I really do love you, I.. I don't know what I'd do if I lost you over this.." Scar's voice sounded sincere, eyes pleading.

"I'm going to regret this," Grian murmured, turning to his back was facing Scar. "If you ever do it again, we're done." He said, turning to walk to their room.

"And you're sleeping on the couch."

"You wanted to tal- Ah-" Bdubs moaned slightly as he was pressed against a wall, Scars lips attaching themselves to his.

"I'm so fucking pissed of," Scar groaned through a kiss, needily biting at the others bottom lip.

"Wh- what happened? Bdubs panted as Scar started to bite at his neck, eyes half lidded, lips perpetually parted.

"We have to be more careful, Grian fucking caught us somehow- ugh I just-" Scar bit down on Bdubs' neck, hard, erecting a groan from the shorter mans throat.

"If- if you were caught.. shouldn't- aH- we.. we sto-stop..?" Bdubs let out a short moan as Scar gripped his waist, his eyes squeezing shut.

"Where's the fun in that?"
