Scarlet: Fancy meetin' you here, ain't it?
Well..I'm not surprised..
leans against the edge of the skyscraper, lighting a cigarette You always did have a knack for finding trouble.
chuckles Trouble seems to find me, doesn't it?
takes a long drag from her cigarette, exhaling slowly That's an understatement, sweetheart.
sighs Why are we here, Scarlet? What's this all about?
smirks, eyes narrowing Cut the bullshit, PearlBliss. We need to talk. And I mean, really talk.
Alright...talk. I'm listening.
throws her cigarette over the edge of the building Look, babe, things have been...complicated lately.
Complicated how? raises an eyebrow
paces back and forth, agitated Complicated as in... I've been keeping secrets from you, PearlBliss. Secrets that could put both our lives in danger.
Secrets? What kind of secrets, Scarlet?gets worried
takes a deep breath, looking straight into PearlBliss's eyes I've been working with some dangerous people, PearlBliss. People you wouldn't even want to imagine.
gulps Dangerous people? What the fuck, Scarlet?gets scared
places a hand on PearlBliss's cheek I know, baby, I know. But I didn't have a choice. They forced me into this shit.
Forced you? What the hell are you involved in?gets anxious
pauses, hesitatingly Look, I can't tell you everything just yet, PearlBliss. But... I need you to trust me.
Trust you? How can I trust you when you won't even tell me the fucking details?
sighs heavily, cussing under her breath Damn it, PearlBliss. I know I screw up sometimes, alright? But this...
This...this what, Scarlet?gets pissed off
Scarlet reveals that she has been involved in illegal activities to support them financially during their struggling times.
Jesus Christ! What the fuck, Scarlet?gets angry
slams her fist against the wall Look, PearlBliss, I didn't have any other options left.
I thought we were fucking Survivors! I Survived a goddamn plane crash only to see you involved in some shady shit!
steps back, eyes filled with regret I never wanted you to see this side of me, PearlBliss. I tried to protect you, to keep you safe.
Safe from what? From whom Scarlet!?
runs a hand through her hair, frustration evident in her voice Look, PearlBliss, I can't explain everything right now. But I promise you, I'll make it right.
gets quiet How do you plan on fixing this, Scarlet?
takes a deep breath, determined I'm gonna get us out of this mess, PearlBliss. No matter what it takes.
looks away I want to believe you, Scarlet...but your words say one thing and your actions another. I don't know anymore
grabs PearlBliss's shoulders firmly, making direct eye contact Look at me, PearlBliss. I'm telling you the truth. I'm gonna fix this. Trust me.
