ALEX'S POV
I was hanging out with the guys outside the school and I had told them about my father. They were so kind to me and they assured me that I would have stayed in Dublin.
I was talking to Beth when I saw Brittany sat on a bench with two of her friends.
Maybe it was the best moment to talk to her... I looked at Glen and I noticed that he was looking at me too. I kind of nodded to let him know that I wanted to talk to his ex.
He came toward me "Sorry Beth, we have to do something" I said to my friend and she nodded.
Glen took my hand and when our fingers locked together I felt shivers. He lead me to her. I felt nervous because I hoped Glen wouldn't do anything stupid. I didn't know him for so long but I could read him like a book and I could tell that he was angry.
"Glen!" Brittany saw him and she smiled, then her gaze focused on me.
"What are you doing here?" she asked me.
"We have to talk" Glen said "Alone" he added looking at her friends
"With her?" she asked pointing at me
"Yes" he said
She stood up from the bench and we went not too far from school.
She stopped and she crossed her arms on her chest.
"So?" she said
"This is the point: me and Alex got very attached to each other..." Glen began speaking but I cut him off.
"No, I want to say something" I said not looking to any of them. "Me and Glen are not together, we're just friends. Good friends. He has helped me so much, and now he's one of the most important people in my life. I don't blame you for wanting him back. If I had been his girlfriend I would have done the same" I was shocked for what I was saying but I wanted to say what I thought.
"He's a good guy. And he didn't deserve what you did to him. I'm not in love with him or something. So you don't need to get angry or jealous because I'm friend with him." The words that were coming out of my mouth hurt. I was falling for Glen, but I had not to show it because it was better for everyone.
Glen looked at me with a... hurt face?! I looked at the ground because I was embarrassed.
"She's right" Suddenly Glen said and I looked at him.
"You don't need to get angry or something. And you need to know that I won't coming back to you... Ever" he said
"Alex is a part of my life now, and you have to understand that. We fought because of you many times, and it won't happen anymore" Glen said and Brittany's face looked hurt and shocked at the same time.
Half of me felt sorry for Brittany because she still loved Glen and I was the cause of her pain. But the other half of me didn't care because she made me fight with him and I was nearly losing him.
"So, if you bother us again, I won't be gentle next time" Glen said tightening the grip on my hand.
Brittany didn't say anything and so did I...
And then Glen lead me away from her.
In the first place we were both silent but then I realized what I had done....
I stopped him "Glen..."
He turned to me "mh?"
"Don't you think we've been too harsh to her?" I asked
"We said the truth and we mustn't regret it. She deserved it" he said. He was so serious while he was saying that.
"But..." I tried to say something but he cut me off
"No, buts. You said the right words to her. And so did I. She's nothing for me now and she should have known that after what she did to me" he said as he took my hand.
I nodded in response because I didn't know what to say.
"Let's go home" he said and then we made our way to our houses.
