Pretty (The Weeknd Fanfic)

Chapter 6

Alice

I felt like a complete idiot. I felt alone, and vulnerable. I found myself running to and from Alex constantly. I couldn’t stay away. And I couldn’t quite figure out why. Whether I was just feeling alone and wanting to get some attention or was I just loosing feelings for Abel. No. That could not be it; I love Abel so much I don’t know how I could do this to him. If he ever finds out, I will ruin him, I will ruin this, and I will ruin everything. There’s only a month left until Abel’s arrival, and I’ve managed to run back to Alex eight times.

“Girl, where the hell have you been? You look horrible.” Maria scrunched her nose as she stood at my doorstep staring at me.

I groaned. “I don’t feel good Maria I don’t wanna go anywhere!”

“Shut up, stop being a party pooper and spill it out already I know your hiding something, and it better not have anything to do with that douchebag manager of yours.” She spat.

I sighed, and opened up the door wider for her to walk in. I motioned at sofa with my chin for her to sit down.

“Seems like you got a lot of talking to do.” She said as she plopped down on my couch.

“Well, I fucked Alex about eight times.”

Her mouth fell open. “WHAT THE FUCK ALICE!” Her voice roared through the loft and echoed in my ears.

I closed my eyes and sat in silence. I didn’t know what to say.

“Well are you gonna say something or sit there like a fucking mute?” She yelled.

“Maria, I don’t know what to say, I’m sorry.”

She held up her hand. “No don’t apologize to me. Who you need to apologize to is Abel; clearly he does not deserve this. No you know what. You don’t deserve him! You don’t deserve any of this shit!” She screamed as she waved her hand around the loft.

A tear rolled down my cheek. “Please Maria, I don’t know what to do.” I croaked.

“Excuse me? What you need to do is tell the truth, this is not fair to him. I thought you were better than this.”

“Honestly I don’t know if I have the heart to tell him.”

She furrowed her brows together. “Oh really? You’re not gonna tell him? While he’s over there making you proud, or well thinks that he is you’re here getting your brains fucked out by your god damned manager! Alice what the fuck! If you don’t tell him, I will!” She yelled as she got up.

I quickly reached up to grab her arm and sit her back down.

“No, no! I will tell him I promise. Just give me some time, let him come back.”

She sighed. “Alright, whatever.” She got up to leave, as I sat in silence.
