Recap: they were thinking about each other, then later on she gets a knock from the door.

As I was turning the doorknob, my hand sprang back, what if some bad person or a robber was there.

I looked through the peep hole and didn't see anyone. So I opened the door and looked side to side.

I then looked down.

And saw this parcel, I hesitated but then picked it up, I decided to open it there out of curiosity. I pulled out a necklace, it had a locket, so I opened it and saw a picture. It was really familiar and I gasped.

It was of me and Alex.

I then felt a vibration against my thigh and fished my hands into my pockets to reveal my phone.

It was a text message from Alex.

Did you get my present ;)

I closed the door and went into the house. I replied,

Yes, thanks.

You see, in high school, he was very charming. He was very sweet, intelligent, and handsome. He was one of the 'popular people'. But he would casually talk to me at the breaks 'recess'
and would sometimes sit at my table at lunch.

I had heard through rumours that he was a bad guy, he would sleep with girls every week and drink at parties. My brother told me to stay away from him. But to me, he looked like he wouldn't hurt a fly.

Of course, every time we would pass he would stare at me, and smile showing his dimple. I had a big crush on him and everyone knew it.

One time he asked me out, and then he would take me out sometimes. If I recall it had been a total of 4 dates, one of them the best and worst, the last one.

He said that day that he really liked me and gave me that very necklace and clasped it around my neck and kissed my cheek, telling me I was beautiful. I believed him. We held hands as we arrived at the party. Everyone was staring at us and I felt really confident well, that was until he broke my heart.

It was okay at the beginning. We stood for a while, and then people handed out drinks which I politely declined. Of course he took them and saw the concerned look on my face telling me it's just water. He led me to dance to some upbeat songs and it was fun. He started to get quite drunk so I told him to stop and he went to the toilet.

I literally waited for 15 minutes and started searching for him. I went to some rooms upstairs and found that he was shirtless and this girl was grinding on his torso while. They were making out. We never even kissed on the lips before.

I gasped and he turned to me and said 'this isn't what it looks like!' I nearly broke down but thought better and threw my glass of water at him, slapped him on the face and pulled the bitch off him by her hair and left.

I didn't reply to his texts or calls and it was hard facing him at school. I had over reacted because we weren't together. But still, he led me onto him.

Once, I had excused myself to the restroom and when I turned a corner by the lockers, he appeared and grabbed me holding my mouth. He then pinned me to the wall and his blue eyes bore into my soul. When he released his hand from my mouth, still pressed against me. He gave me a long apology saying he was drunk and that he felt ashamed. I got angry and said that if he really liked me he would've chased me. I told him other stuff and he shut me up by nearly kissing me. But I panicked and turned my head.

I couldn't, he would've hurt me more. I had a sudden urge to grab him and kiss him every time we were together, but this time it didn't feel right.

I told him we could still be friends a week later and that it was fine. He said he would still care for me no matter what. When I finished school, his name fizzled out and the last thing I knew is that he moved to America.

And worked for Target (joked haha XD).

I decided to save my first kiss for someone special, but no one came. I felt emptiness, unloved. Luke filled that gap up.

Weirdly Alex didn't reply and I left it alone.

A week later
I was flying to the UK because the band were going to be touring there in a few weeks. I took a flight to Venice, then to Heathrow airport in London. I was really nervous, you definitely know the drill haha. Same hotel they were but this time I was too tired to prank them and settled down then slept.

That was a weird chapter XD it also gave you an idea of Alexa's past relationships, thanks for reading and guess what will happen when she meets Luke again?! ☺️🙈❤️
