We hung out almost everyday after school either at the coffee shop or studding at the library. We became really close. But I still couldn't bring myself to tell him about the panic attacks and cutting.
It was a few weeks later and we were studding at his house, like we did the first day we met. But as usual he wasn't interested on the work at all.
" ten times a add b and subtract 20 equals what Alex"
" have you ever swam with sharks"
I gave his a little push and he nearly fell off his chair.
" you better run Ella"
I took the warning and ran to the other side of the room nearly reaching the hallway when he grabbed my hand and pinned me to the ground, tickling me.
" stop it Alex " I said laughing uncontrollably. He suddenly stopped and just stared in my eyes, just as I thought it was gunna be our first kiss the front door opened. It was a tall girl with with brown curly hair, she had green eyes just Alex and looked about 18, only two years older that us." well look what we have" she said laughing. Alex climbed off of me and helped me up.
" uh, Katie what are doing back so early" Alex said
" I don't think that's the important question, what were you doing?" She said still with a smile on her face.
" uh Bella this is my sister, Katie, Katie this is Bella my tutor." He said bitting his lip. I had notice that he did that when he was nervous.
" well this is a cosy study session" she said giggling " your just lucky it was me and not mum or dad. " then she turned to me " hey Bella, it's great to meet you"
" you too " I said fiddling with my fingers because meeting new people always made me anxious. Alex notice this and held my hand. I looked up at him and he winked at me. His winks made my heart melt every time.
" Alex go get us some drinks" Katie saidHe saluted her jokily and went in the kitchen.
" so Bella, are you just his tutor?" She winked
" oh no it's not like there were just friends"
" really? cause if I know my brother, I think he has a crush on you"
" no he doesn't, trust me " I said, he was super cute he would never like a messed up girl like me.
" hey wanna see something funny?" She said pulling me behind the sofa.
" what are we doing ?" I asked
" shhhh, jump up on three" she whispered
" Ella, Katie where are you" Alex said as he walked in.
" one two three " she said and we both jumped up and she screamed " BOO"
Alex was holding drinks and he spilt them everywhere, even over his top. Katie was rolling on the floor laughing and I couldn't help but giggle a bit." shit, you two " he said pulling off his socking wet T-shirt, revealing his six pack. I was trying not to stare.
" I'm gunna kill you too" he said
Katie grabbed my hand and we ran up the stairs into the bath room, and slammed the door.
" here, let's go get him" she said handing me a can of shaving cream. We tip towed down the stairs looking for Alex, Katie went one way, I went the other. Then suddenly Alex jumped out from behind a chair and tackled me to the ground, knocking the can out of my hand.
" got ya" he said tickling me ( still with his shirt off)
Then Katie came in and covered both of us with shaving cream.
