I'm sorry

Keaton's prospective

"Mmmm" I groaned rolling over and reaching for Alli,but felt an empty space. I 

opened my eyes to find the other half of my bed empty. She must be in the 

bathroom. "Alli" I said knocking on the door,nobody answered. I looked around 

the room and all of her things were gone. I picked up my phone and sent her a 

quick text. 'Sorry about this morning,where are you?xoxo' Sighing I got dressed 

and made my way into the kitchen. "Hi Keaton" Cece said with a warm smile. 

"Hey,have you seen Wes?" I asked taking an orange out of the fridge and peeling 

it dropping a piece into my mouth. "Him and Drew went to the gym I think.But I 

know Lauren was looking for you or something" she said sitting at the table. I 

sighed and rolled my eyes not even answering. "Not so fond of her? I think she 

has a thing for you Keats" Cece said giggling. "Cece,I can tell you anything 

right? And you won't tell anyone?" I asked wanting to tell her about Alli. "You 

know you can trust me,why what's up?" She asked motioning for me to sit down 

next to her. "Well,the first live show I met Andrea's niece Alli. And we've been 

hanging out a lot.And we've been dating for like two weeks and I really really 

like her" I sighed glad that I got it off my chest. I knew that there were rules 

that I couldn't be in a relationship during the competition but I knew Cece 

would keep my secret. "Awe Keaton,I wanna meet her!" She said hugging me. "I 

don't know,she's going through a really tough time. Her grandmother just 

died,she literally has nobody." I said sighing and checking my phone. Nothing. 

"Well,um. I'm sorta dating Drew" Cece blurted out. I dropped my jaw and my eyes 

went wide. "Oh hush,you knew it was gonna happen eventually" she said waving her 

hands. " Well.." I said laughing. "Keaton quit the jokes. Let me meet her, I can 

take her somewhere to get her mind off things" Cece offered. "Tonight? While 

everyone's at dinner?" I asked hugging her. "Sure" she said walking out of the 

kitchen and down the stairs. 

*Knock Knock* I banged on Alli's front door. No answer. "Alli?" I asked. "Coming 

hold on!" I heard her sweet voice. Before I knew it the door was flung open and 

her lips were connected with mine. I wrapped my arms tightly around her waist 

pulling you closer to me. "Why didn't you answer my texts?" I asked when we 

pulled away. "Phones dead,now come on let's go to the beach!" She yelled running 

down the driveway laughing. I chuckled and followed her down to the beach. 

"Alli,why are you wearing a sweater? It's like 90 outside" I said laughing at 

her. "Oh" she said looking down. "Your so adorable,you know that?" I said 

pulling her closer to me and kissing her. She instantly deepened the kiss by 

slipping her tongue into my mouth. It was now a full makeout until we heard some 

voices. We instantly broke apart and looked at the people walking up and down 

the beach. "It sucks how I can't even kiss my own girlfriend in public" I said 

interlocking my fingers with hers an leading her back to the xfactor house. 

"Alli,I have someone that wants to meet you" I said leading her through the back 

door and into my room.
