I love you too much to leave you... Pierce X Female!reader

Chapter 2: Tess?

I was stunned. What was Tess doing at my apartment? How did she know where my apartment was? Why was she here?

Questions flooded my mind as Tess put on a clearly fake smile. "Uhm," I began, "can I help you?"

Tess opened her mouth to speak, but then glanced over my shoulder. I followed her eyes and realized she was looking at Pierce and Nellie on the couch.

Disappointment shone through on Tess's face but she quickly replaced it with a fake smile. "Can we talk?" She asked. Her voice was as sweet as honey and as soft as silk. Calming.

"Why?" I shot back. "Did I do something that concerns you?"

She exasperatedly sighed and crossed her arms with an annoyed smirk tugging at her pink lips. "I can wait here all day, y'know." She gave off a friendly aura but definitely was a nightmare.

I sighed. "If I talk to you will you leave?" I asked.

Tess smiled and tugged on my arm. I was thrown into the hall and stood across from her. "So," Tess began, "you're Y/N L/N, right?"

"Uh, yeah, and your name's Tess?"

"Correct," Tess answered. I had no idea what was yet to come. Tess shrugged her silky brown highlighted hair behind her shoulder and rested her hands on her hips, her soft brown eyes boring into my soul.

"You were dating Chris, right?" She asked with a smirk.

"Yeah, I remember Chris. 5'9, maroon hair, my ex. I'd like to keep him off my mind now that he's with you."

Tess deadpanned. "Not anymore," She muttered. "Turns out not all boyfriends are boyfriend material. Which is why I'm here. I was wondering-"

"I'm not interested in taking Chris off your hands, Tess." I snapped with my arms crossed.

"I didn't finish, stupid," Tess shot back. "What I was going to say, was I was wondering how things are going with your new boyfriend."

I raised my eyebrows in shock. Why did she want to know how my relationship with Pierce was going?

I peeked back into my apartment and glanced at Pierce and Nellie. "P-Pierce? W-Why do you ask?" I looked back over at Tess.

"Just curious," She answered. "So how are things? I can take care of him for you if things are a little stiff. Who knows. Maybe he'd willingly leave you for me."

"We're fine, idiot. And what do you mean by 'Take care of him'? There's nothing you could do to make me give him up."

"Geez, I was just wondering."

"Why?! What made you think to yourself, 'Oh, I'm gonna trot on over to Y/N L/N's apartment and take care of her boyfriend for her, whatever the frick that means'?!"

Tess looked unamused. "That was very childish of you, Y/N."

"What are you two talking about?" A deep voice interrupted us.

Pierce.

Tess smirked and crossed her arms. Her eyes wandered Pierce up and down while she licked her lips. She looked back over at me while I glared at her in disgust.

"Oh, nothing," She answered. "Nothing you have to worry about."

Tess trotted off down the hall.

"Who was she?" Pierce asked.

I looked back up at him. Nellie was asleep on the couch on her back with her head hanging off the end and her tongue sticking out of her mouth. She kinda looked dead.

I sighed in frustration. "No one, Pierce. No one."

I walked back inside the apartment with Pierce behind me.
