Charlynch One-Shots

End Of The Line

"I can't believe she said that."

Charlotte sat staring at her phone in complete awe at what she was watching.

Although, what she was watching she had already seen. Plenty of times.

"Who?"

"Becky! Did you see her promo from the other week with Shayna?"

Alexa, who'd spoken before, only sighs before responding, "no. I didn't. I'm not caught up on some things yet"

"She did the same thing she always does! That stupid little taunt she always says.."

While Charlotte complains and eyes the video once more, she's drawn to stare at everything on Becky besides the taunt she claims is so stupid.

"Oh, wow" Alexa briefly and boredly enthuses from her phone, not really wanting to talk about Becky, but afraid Charlotte would insist by continuing the conversation.

"I just think it's so funny how she—"

"'Kay, do you miss her, or something?" Alexa interrupts Charlotte, making her pause. This is exactly what she meant.

"Excuse me?" Charlotte asks almost offended. Wanting to be sure she was actually asked what she thought she was asked as she turned her head to look at her.

"What is the matter with you?" Alexa shakes her head as she looked her way, "Do you miss her?"

"W—hat? No! I don't miss her!" Charlotte dismisses almost immediately.

"Don't play dumb with me. You talk about her every chance you get. She could be walking down the street not thinking a damn thing about you, and you'd find a way to know about it" Alexa interrogates her as she repositioned herself to be more sat. The frustration she had been holding back came bursting through.

"That's not true" Charlotte defends herself. She just liked to keep up with Becky.

It didn't matter to her that they didn't talk. Not even a passing 'hi' in the hallways. Or a text once in a while. Nothing. Besides work?

Nothing.

For years.

"Yes it is, Ashley! Jesus Christ. You do it every night! Every day! I feel like you only do it when you're around me for goodness sake's!" Alexa's voice raises. She was getting really tired of this.

"Look, I'm sorry—I don't think I do it that much! If you don't want me to say anything, then tell me!" Charlotte's shoulders sink as does her mood, "c'mon, Lexi, this is ridiculous"

"Yes! It is ridiculous Ashley! I've asked you many times to tone it down! Why would I wanna hear you moan and complain and obsess over your ex, huh?? I'm your girlfriend. I don't want anything to do with that" Alexa pockets her phone before getting off the bed and quickly walking to her suitcase to stuff it with whatever she could grab quickly enough.

"Oh, Lex, don't do that" Charlotte turns her body to her before standing immediately once she noticed what she was doing, "ugh, please? C'mon—" she reaches her hand out to stop her from packing her things.

"Get off me!" Alexa snatched her arm away from her before giving her a dirty look. One that stuns Charlotte to where she must sit.

"I've thought for a long while that you don't even wanna be with me anymore" Lexi's sentences become breathy from her quick movements while eyeing Charlotte as if she's prey.

"This is too much for me. Once you get your shit together, and I mean really get it together, then you can decide to talk to me. But now? Please, leave me alone until you get over her"
