Finding My Person and My Reason

Chapter 11: Momma and ice cream makes everything better.

Soon the laughter dies down and the door opens and it's like a portal, because this beautiful model-like girl walks out. IN ONLY ALEX'S SHIRT and him behind her with low hanging sweatpants on. She turns and puts her hands on his chest. He doesn't even push her away. Are you serious right now? I get up before I see anything else, who knows what else will happen. I mean he didn't even notice my presence. I guess I got what he was "busy" doing. I swear I finally let someone in and this happens. I knew I would just embarrass myself at the end of this, I just couldn't believe he would do this to me. After everything.

I get down the stairs when I hear them coming down giggling again. I was about to leave when his mom stopped me.

"Hope you're here, I didn't know you came over."

You're not the only one...

"Yeah umm I was just going to come visit Alex I found some good things out, but it seems y'all have company. So I was just going to sneak out before he saw me."

"Hope?"

I turn around and see Alex and that girl with her arm around him. How I would just love to run away right now.

"Umm hey Alexander I am just going go"

I went out the front door and started running before the tears could run down my face. But of course I should've known he would ketch up with me, I mean he is a baseball player.

"Hey when did I become Alexander again. What's wro"

Was all he could say before I lost it. I mean I lost it.

"What's wrong, oh nothing except I've been texting my boyfriend all day but never heard anything back. So when I came to see if he was ok, because he was just reading my messages and not answering and that's not like him. But I came and was told by your dad to go upstairs to your room and wait for you. But when I was sitting there you know what I realized he was way better than ok... in fact he was in the bathroom with a girl that I don't even know laughing shirtless and her wearing you shirt and nothing else. So please tell me how you would take that?"

He just stands there like a fish out of water. He looked like a dead man walking.

"That's what I thought, you're not even going to try to cover it up..."

I can't even believe that I went to walk off and he grabbed my arm.

"DON'T YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE TO TELL ME I WAS WRONG, THAT IT WASN"T WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS"

I yanked my arm out from his grip and ran the rest of the way home. Once home I slam the door shut and fall down the door sobbing. Mom comes over and hugs me and just hugs me. Once I calm down she asks me what happened and I tell her everything. She got up and went to get ice cream.. While she was in the kitchen messages flooded in from Alexander, saying things like I love you, please come back so I can explain, she's just an old friend. I delete and block his number. Me and mom ended up staying up all night watching movies and eating ice cream.
