The Best Thing

"What's wrong with Vic these days?" Tony asked me. I looked at him from across the breakfast table, he'd been spending a lot more time here since he began dating Kiera.

"I honestly don't know. He hasn't really spoken to me since the whole argument about giving up the search." I shrugged, picking at a piece of toast.

"Do you think he's still angry at it all?" Tony questioned, I looked at his facial expression and it seemed as though he was worried about his friend.

"I don't know. It's been a over a week and he hasn't even mentioned anything to me. Plus he has been on his trip to finish writing the new album so I haven't been in any contact with him since he left." I sighed, throwing the toast down and finally deciding that I was done with it. "Tony...?" I asked.

"Yeah?" He replied.

"Mike told me that Vic didn't date anyone when we were broken up but I've been listening to your albums and honestly I don't really understand how he could get those lyrics and emotions from nowhere. Did Mike lie to me?" I frowned a little.

Tony looked at the table with a shifty look on his face. "I uh, um." He began to fidget with his plate.

"Tony just spit it out." I said rolling my eyes and folding my arms across my chest.

"Mike lied to you..." He said softly, looking back up to glance into my eyes. "But he regretted it the second he said it to you and he told us all about it to make sure we didn't screw it up. Vic doesn't know about what Mike told you but we all heavily instructed him not to mention past girlfriends around you." Tony explained. A look of relief and guilt spread across his face.

"Why did Mike lie? I don't care if Vic seen other people when we were broken up. Okay I do care a little but I'm not gonna hold it against him." I shook my head a little.

"Mike wanted you and Vic back together and he thought by lying that maybe he'd help, he's such an idiot at times." Tony smiled a little, which made me smile.

"I hope he doesn't lie to Alysha. I will seriously kick his ass if he does." I smiled, thinking of a situation where I would end up kicking Mike's ass.

"I'm glad you're back, really I am." Tony smiled at me, the goofy tooth filled Tony smile. The one that instantly makes you smile no matter what kinda mood you're in.

"I'm glad to be back too." I grinned back at him.

After we cleaned up I decided to go for a walk to the park like the old days, only this time I wasn't running away from my problems. It's funny how life can swing one way for so long and then the rope snaps and you find yourself falling but there's nothing to break your fall. You just keep on falling until you grab onto something new, something more sturdy. I kinda imagine that's how everyone else feels at some point in their life, if not then I am a freak.

I sat down on the familiar swing, letting my feet drag across the sand beneath me. In all the time that I was gone this place didn't change a bit. I mean yeah it has aged but it didn't really change.

I guess that's just another reason to believe that I'm growing up but I'm not growing old, not yet. I'm 23 years old and there's so much more I have to do with my life. I also have pretty much more money than half of the average American combined, why am I still sitting in San Diego when I could be laying on the Bahamas with a cocktail and a tan? Why am I choosing this over the luxury life that I could have? Vic. He's the reason. If I leave, if I go away and begin the life that I want to lead then I will probably lose what I have with Vic.

But I am beginning to think that wouldn't be the worst thing to ever happen. Yes I love him so dearly but it's not the same anymore. His mind is focused on something else half the time and he just seems so much more... troubled. I don't wanna hurt him again but I need to start doing things for me.

"You're going where?" Alysha looked at me as if I had two heads.

"I'm going to Hawaii, do you want to come with me or not?" I stared back at her. She didn't know what to say.

"For how long?" She had a huge grin on her face.

"I don't know, two weeks or two months I genuinely don't know. All I do know is that I need to get away from San Diego for awhile and just forget the worries and troubles. The guys are going to be making and recording an album, they'll be busy! We can fly them out to see us if we want! Please just do this with me." I begged Alysha.

Her face was filled with mixed emotions, confusion and excitement being the two most prominent ones. "Okay, fuck it, let's go." She threw her hands up in the air and grinned at me.

"We are going to have an amazing time okay." I told her.

"I need to go home and pack." She gushed.

"Nah, all you need is your passport. The rest will await us in Hawaii." I winked at her.

"I have my passport in my bag actually." She grinned at me.

"Then let's go." I told her.

-

"We've been doing this for a week now and I seriously could never get bored of this." Alysha sighed happily from beside me. I looked at her bikini clad body on the beach recliner beside me and laughed.

"It's bliss." I looked out onto the beach in front of us.

"Do you miss home yet?" Alysha sat up and faced me.

"I honestly don't know yet." I frowned. I miss Vic but that's it. He doesn't even know I've gone to Hawaii, well unless Mike or the guys have told him.

"I miss Mike." She had a sad look on her face.

"If things get difficult then we will make him come over okay." I tried to reassure her so that she wouldn't wanna leave. If she left then I'd be alone and I honestly don't think I could go back yet.

"Good, good." She laid back down and began soaking the sun up again.

My phone began to buzz on the arm of the recliner. I looked at it and it was a number I didn't recognise at all. I still picked it up and answered it though. "Hello?" I asked down the phone.

"Scarlett, why have you been so difficult to get a hold of?" Vic's voice boomed down the phone.

"Sorry I took a vacation while you were away." I explained to him, Alysha looked over to me obviously curious as to whom I was talking to.

"Okay but I need to speak to you seriously for a second and you can't be mad at me." Vic told me.

"I can't promise it if I don't know what it is." I said.

"Just try okay." He groaned.

"Okay." I sighed.

"You know how I've been writing for the new album so I took a trip?" He said with a heavy breath.

"Yep." I said popping the p.

"Well, I kinda lied to you okay." He started, I could feel my heart begin to beat rapidly. "I tracked her down Scarlett. I know where she is and it's gonna shock and piss you off." He sounded shaky.

"Where is she?" I asked.

"Your parents house in Canada." He said softly. My eyes widened and I choked on my own breath.

"Are you there now?" I asked frantically.

"Yeah I am." He said softly. Suddenly in the background I could hear a voice that sounded like my fathers.

"Vic is that my dad?" I asked but Vic didn't reply.

"Get out of here or I will kill you." I heard my father say to Vic. The voice was muffled which made me think he was holding his phone away from the direction that my father was.

"I'm not going anywhere until you hand my daughter back over." Vic said sternly.

Suddenly there was a lot of muffled sounds and someone shouting, there was a thud and then it sounded like someone let out and blood curdling scream before hitting the ground and then the line went dead. "Vic?" I called down the phone but all I was greeted with was the dial tone.

"What happened?" Alysha asked me, worry on her face.

"He found her." I whispered. "My parents had her and it sounded like my father just killed Vic." I stared at the ground.

"We need to go home Scarlett." Alysha got up and grabbed my arm, she was right we had to go home but all my movements and actions were robotic. My brain refused to process anything and my heart ached. What was I going to do?
