SCARLET WATCHED AS Frankie and Vince got into a fight while Lauren and Talia hid behind Ethan, Chip, Noa, Bobby, and Ruby.

"Hey, yeah. Sorry to interrupt. I'm just gonna tase you in the balls real quick." Sam spoke up, before tazing Frankie in the balls.

"Oh!" Richie winced from behind Scarlet.

Frankie fell to his knees, clutching his balls. That's gotta hurt.

"Don't ever lay hands on my sister." Sam warned Frankie, glaring down at him.

"Fucking bitch!" Frankie exclaimed, looking at Sam in pain.

Scarlet punched Frankie in the face, knocking him out. Vince gulped, nervously fiddling with his shirt. Aileen chuckled, looking up to Richie.

"Damn." Richie breathed out, wrapping his arm around Aileen.

"Sam! Are you fucking kidding me? You're stalking me now?" Tara asked, glaring at her older sister.

Scarlet rubbed her knuckles as Tara left the party. Everyone followed behind.

"TARA, WILL YOU Stop?" Sam asked, walking behind Tara as Aaron held her hand.

Tara turned around, then started to walk again "I can not believe you did that, you embarrassed me!"

"That guy was a dick he was gonna take advantage of you." Sam said, obviously wanting to protect Tara.

"So?!" Tara exclaimed, facing Sam, standing in front of her sister.

Scarlet rubbed her temples. Aileen looked up at Richie, frowning. Richie kissed her head, rubbing her back.

"So?" Sam asked, confusion written all over her face.

"If I wanna hook up with an asshole that's my decision! It's my decision!" Tara exclaimed, hitting her chest.

"Okay.." Sam sighed, looking away from Tara.

"It's not about you, y-you're out of my life for five years and then you can't leave me alone for five minutes." Tara threw her hands in the air.

"Because you're not dealing with what happened to us! Have you even gone to see the counselor? Once?" Sam asked interrogating her sister.

Scarlet and Chip shared annoyed looks.

"No, I'm not going to." Tara said, looking at Sam.

"Why not?" Sam asked.

"Because I'm uninterested in living in the past like you, Vince, Aileen, and Scarlet are!" Tara exclaimed.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Aileen, Sam, Scarlet, and Vince questioned her.

"Hey, guys.." Chad and Bobby started but got cut off by Tara.

"I mean, I'm not gonna let what happened to us for 3 days define the rest of my life." Tara said.

"So, you're just gonna pretend it never happened." Sam stated.

"What are you doing here, Sam? In New York? You're working two shitty jobs, help with rent but whatever. What's your plan? I know what I'm gonna do. Okay, cause I'm gonna keep going to college, I'm gonna get my degree and I'm gonna live my life. My life!" Tara exclaimed.

Sam stayed silent.

"You just followed me here and you won't let me out of your sight." Tara said.

"Just trying to look out for you." Sam sighed.

Vince looked down at his feet, he felt the same way about Lauren and Talia as Scarlet felt about Chip, Bobby, Ruby, and Ethan.

"I..I know. I know you are. You can't do it for the rest of my life though. You have to let me go." Tara said, rubbing her hands over her face.

"Hey!" Someone exclaimed throwing their drink on Sam, Aileen, Scarlet, and Vince.

Bobby, Lauren, and Mindy gasped feeling the soda on them.

"Murderer!" The girl exclaimed.

"What the fuck is wrong with you, bitch? You got a problem with us?" Sam yelled.

Scarlet tried to put her in the face but Bobby and Chip held her back "Yeah, what are you gonna do about it, bitch?"

"Ooo, I'm so scared!" The girl waved her hands in the air.

Scarlet still tried to get away from Chip and Bobby "You should be!"

"Oh my God.." Richie and Aileen mumbled, looking at each other.

Chip and Bobby finally let Scarlet go, looking at each other. Ruby grabbed Scarlet's arm, ready to walk away with her.

"You guys should stay away from them, they know what they did!" The bitch yelled, standing up.

"We didn't fucking do anything!" Sam and Scarlet yelled.

"Sure, bitches!" The bitch yelled then walked away.

"I'm sick of this shit." Sam said.

"Same here." Aileen frowned, looking up at Richie.

Scarlet kissed Ruby's forehead before leaving with him and Vince.
