Not Just Perfect

Noah?

*Alex's perspective*

I woke up feeling happy. This was new to me. I never wake up feeling happy. I usually feel dreary or down. I hopped out of bed to get breakfast. I slipped on my favorite socks with a relief of warmth. As I was walking out of my bedroom I saw my mirror and paused. My baby bump was getting huge and it was obvious I was pregnant at this point. I rolled my eyes and ran my fingers through my tangled hair. My sweater was stained and my shorts were ripped at the corner. I haven't showered in three days and I couldn't get anymore lazy. My attention was drawn to my phone as it continuously rang. "I hate you" it was labeled. I shook my head in confusion. I slid my finger across the screen slowly.

"Hello?"

"Alex."

"Who is this?"

"Listen, I'm so sorry. I miss you more than anything."

"Who is this.....?"

"I love you so.... much." His voice cracked and I imagined he was about to cry.

"Jack!?" I questioned.

"Kalin...?" I guessed once more.

"No." He said softly.

For some odd reason I could not recognize his voice at all and that's what scared me.

"Please tell me who you are."

"Alex I'm so sorry."

"Stop apologizing and tell me who this is." I made sure my voice was stern.

"I-"

"Noah?"

"Alexandria Rose I miss you more than anything I've ever missed in my whole entire life and-"

"You fucked me up so bad Noah and if you ever think I would come back to you, you're mentally insane. I almost killed myself because of you. I had to cry for hours on my boyfriends shoulder at the magcon event just because I saw you. I was supposed to be having fun and you ruined it. I almost punched you just because I couldn't bare the pain. I promised myself that'd be the last time i saw you or made contact with you. I want nothing to do with you! First you break my heart but then you won't even let me move on because your so attached to the past! You left me. What do you not understand?"

"Alex, I made a mistake. Please try and see this through my perspective! You left me all alone here and I just couldn't take it! I needed love! I needed affection! I missed you so much and I couldn't help but get a girl to text and call. It obviously lead to some freak accident because trust me when I say Amber was a mistake and you are who I'm supposed to be with you!"

"No you are not."

"How could you say that. We were supposed to get married and have three kids. We were going to name them Piper, Bryn, and Caleb! We had planed out our entire life-"

"Before you broke my heart." I cut him off.

"Alex-"

"Noah I'm sorry but I all ready have a kid and her name is Cameron. In fact, She's inside of me as we speak."

"You're lying."

"No I am not."

"Alex! How?"

"Well I think it's obvious..."

"I have a baby to take care of." And with that I hung up the phone.

I began to ball. There goes "waking up happy".

"WHY DOES HE HAVE TO COME AND SCREW EVERYTHING UP!?" I screamed through the house.

*******

"Alex stop!" Noah laughed.

I splashed him again. He gave me a smirk before I was drenched in sea water. I cracked a smile before I began to plan a revenge. As I gathered a patch of water, Noah began to yell, "Truce! Truce!"

"You have to kiss me in order for me to agree to this truce." I giggled.

He chuckled before gently grabbing my face. His lips were soft as always and made me grin in return. Our lips were almost like puzzle pieces. They fit so perfectly as if they were meant for each other.

"I love you Noah." I whispered.

"I love you more Alex."

His voice was angelic and I could fall asleep just listening to him ramble, which is what I usually did.

I remember in that moment, feeling like no one else existed. I was so happy. I was truly... happy.

*******

I wiped my eyes. "We were meant to be together...." I swallowed.
