casual lovers

9 seeing tooney

after shopping i went back home.
alessias car was here but she was not downstairs.

i brought the shopping in and put everything away.

i ran up the stairs and walked into alessias room.

"woah sorry i didn't realise you'd have someone over less" i said.

alessia and a girl who looked slightly older covered themselves with her duvet.

"i'll go back to leah's if you want" i said.

"no it's fine we're done now anyway" she said.

"okay. umm sorry again" i said and walked out.

a few minutes later the other girl came down the stairs and left.

alessia didn't come back down.

i made lunch and went to take it up for her.

"less can i come in" i asked at the door.

"yeah"

i walked in and saw her crying.

i put the plates down on her desk and sat on her bed.

"what's wrong love" i said hugging her.

"i don't know. just maybe confused i guess" she sniffled.

"why" i asked.

"just about everything. being dumped, my feelings towards girls yknow all that" she said.

"what about that girl that was in your bed" i asked.

"that didn't mean anything. that was a rebound or something i guess" she shrugged. "trying sex with a girl for the first time"

"was it good?" i asked.

"erm not what i was expecting" she said.

"why love" i asked.

"just from what ive seen on uhh videos, this wasn't as good i guess" she said.

"oh right" i said.

"less you know this isn't the way to go" i said.

"huh"

"your still hurt. your healing. you need to give yourself some time." i said. "i'm not trying to tell you what to do or anything but i don't recommend going round sleeping with a bunch of people as a rebound or just like a hookup or something. especially with a status as high as yours"

"i know i know that was just a one off" she said.

"do you have something you want to say less?" i asked.

i can tell on her face she wants to tell me something but she's holding back.

she shook her head and looked away.

"okay what should we do for dinner later on tonight" i asked. "want me to cook?"

"yeah" she said.

"alright what should i make" i asked.

"anything i don't mind" she said.

"how about we do home made pizzas" i said.

"yeah that sounds good" she said.

"okay" i said.

after eating lunch we went and sat in the living room together. alessia lay with her head in my lap while we watched tv.

the door knocked and i went to go and open it.

"ella what are you doing here" i asked.

"im here to see my best friend obviously" she said.
