It's been two days since Alex opened up to me about her past. To say I'm shocked is an understatement. I had no idea all the horrible things she went through. After she opened up to me I didn't really know how to react. Then when Ashlen and Stacy got back I felt more in the way. Feeling like I should give Alex alone time with her sister I left. Alex pleaded for me to stay but I felt like I didn't belong. So I said I had to get back. Before I left I made sure she knew the only reason I was leaving was to give her alone time with her sister and not because of everything she told me. I could tell she wasn't totally convinced but I knew it would be better for me to leave. That night we texted and she told me that the remaining details of her night. Nothing significant happened, they spent the rest of the night talking. Catching up on missed time. That was the last I heard from her. I was tempted to reach out and text her but I restrained myself. She needs that time with her sister. To be honest I don't even know if her sister is so there.

"Ugh," I groan tossing my phone to the side.

"Alex?" Quincy questions as he talked a seat next to me handing me an bowl of food.

"Thanks," I grabbing the food.

"And yes," I answer before taking a bite of food.

"I don't know why you being stubborn." Quincy says

"Am not." I say defensively.

"So why haven't you texted her?"

"Because, she needs some time with her sister." I state.

"Do you want my opinion on this situation of not?"

After debating for and moment knowing full will I'll regret my answer I say "yes."

"So from what you told me, she opened up to you about something really personal." He began

I hum in agreement

"After she put herself out there you left." I began to cut him off but her stop me.

"Yeah, yeah I know you says it's because they needed space but how does that look to her? She told you an intimate details about herself the the moment you saw the opportunity to leave you took it even though she didn't want you to. I would say it's not her that needed the space it was you making an excuse so you could have space to think. With her leaving in a couple days to tour I would do this nonsense and go see her."

I say there quiet for a couple minutes trying to digest what he said. Am I the one pushing her away because of my own insecurities. Fearing that my problems aren't justified knowing her problems will always be worse. My stomach starts to sink as realization sets in. How could I be so blind. Dropping everything I get in my car to go see her.

30 minutes later I arrive pounding on the door. A couple minutes later the door is pulled open is a sleepy Alex who has slightly messy with silk pajamas.

"Kaylee," She states surprised.

"What are you doing here?" She questions.

"I needed to see you." I say taking a step in.

"It's 2 in the morning. Could this not wait."

"No, I needed to make sure you knew that I wasn't trying to distance myself from you. I was only trying to give you and your sister space but I see now how that looks to you." I say in one breath.

"Yeah, it totally sucked." She say but I'm unable to recognize her emotion.

"I though you were going to break up with me." She stated as a look of sadness takes over.
