What Were The Odds?

Chapter 9- Are we alone?

                                      Chapter 9

                   Alyssa’s POV-

                             “I live here.” Kat said. “YOU WHAT!?” I said. I know I had a bit of an overreaction. But before I could think about it my mouth answered for me and anger was taking over my entire body. “Is that a problem?” Kat was questioning me now. Just great. “Well it’s just that it seems weird that a guy and a girl who are just friends are living together and sleeping in the same bed…” I said but I ended up trailing off at the end because I realized how much of a hypocrite I sounded like. I’m a stripper. I have random men in my bed almost every night. At least they know each other and they are friends. Now my anger has completely faded and turned guilt. “Cade is my boyfriend though.” Kat stated confidently. Now I feel even guiltier. They’re together and I judged them. Wait a second. They are together? He can’t do that! It’s not part of the plan! He is going to get in huge trouble and he doesn’t even know it. This is so bad. They have to break up right now! “Why is it bad? Why do we have to break up…?” Kat said starting to have tears stream down her face “What? Oh no I wasn’t thinking out loud was I?” I said. “Yes Alyssa. You were. Can I talk to you in the kitchen for a moment?” Cade said through clenched teeth. Uh-oh. When Cade gets mad, there is no stopping him. This might get even worse than I anticipated. “Sure thing Cade.” I said as sweetly as I possibly could and plastered a huge innocent smile on my face. “Babe, nothing is wrong. I promise. I just need to tell Alyssa what’s going on because she has been at work all day and she is probably just tired and confused. She needs to catch up.” Cade said to Kat. Kat forced a little smile and waved him off to go talk to me in the kitchen and I don’t know if Cade saw it but the only emotion written across her face was sadness. Or maybe fear. Or both. Mixed with confusion. It was almost as if she was trying to put the pieces together in her mind and find out about the plan on her own. I felt so terrible at this point I just wish I could run up into my own apartment and figure out what to do with myself at this point. I wish I could just let them be together and fix their own problems. But there is no way I am going to allow them to be together. “Why the hell did you just do that? Are you trying to ruin my relationship with Kat? Because I really do love her and I really hate the fact you just did that.” Cade said in full force anger. I could tell he just wanted to go comfort his crying girlfriend but I had to break them up. And she needs to leave. “I did that so you two would break up but it’s becoming clear to me that you two are going to put up a fight. So I’ll make you a deal. If you two are broken up by tomorrow morning, everyone will be just fine and nobody gets hurt. If you two are still together tomorrow, there will be a price to pay, got it?” I was spitting my words out at him while feeling more and more guilty behind every word that came flowing out of my mouth. At this point I really just need to shut up and leave them be. I don’t think anyone but I will ever understand why. And that’s okay to me. But they still have to break up. “No. I don’t ’got it’ because I am not going to make any deals with you about this because what I do and who I am in a relationship has nothing to do with you! Just leave us alone and let us be happy. Please?” Cade said full of anger yet desperately trying to make his pleads convincing. “Listen up little boy. I am your boss. And I can control you all I want. Now you two better break up.” I said. “And what is the reason as to why we need to break up?” Cade asked. He has surprisingly calmed down but something was taking over me and what I said next I immediately regret it the second I said it. “Because she is a whore!” I was practically screaming at this point but in a whisper so Kat couldn’t hear me. This by far angered Cade. “Who are you calling a whore? You’re a stripper! Alyssa, I’m not calling you a whore but you have been on more wieners than Heinz ketchup so you better shut your mouth.” Cade said. He even had a slight smirk and looked clearly proud of his ‘smart’ remark. “How dare you! I am your boss! You can’t talk to me like that!” This time I was full on shouting. I was PISSED. “Yeah well I can talk to you like that because I quit.” He said coldly. NO I need him there. “You can’t quit on me!” I pleaded. “Oh yeah well I just did so you can deal with your problems on your own from now on.” He said. “Oh yeah? Well your innocent little girlfriend works for me so I’ll just have to go through here.” I said full of too much confidence, “She quits too. Now leave before I call the cops.” He said while pointing at his door. “I’ll leave this time but this is not over. Don’t think that you’re winning next time. This isn’t over.” I said before I walked out.

Kat’s POV-

          Shouting. That is all I could hear right now. Alyssa and Cade were in the kitchen fighting for no good reason. I was crying but only because I was positive that Cade was about to break up with me. Suddenly Alyssa came stomping out of the kitchen completely fuming. She clearly hadn’t won that fight. Well I’m not going to end the day by becoming single…. “Cade, what happened?” I asked. I said it very cautiously though because I didn’t want to anger him anymore. “We longer have a job.” Cade said and then started laughing. I surprisingly started laughing really hard. I don’t know why we were laughing. This was a serious matter but we honestly couldn’t care less. Maybe everything is better now…?
