Bumpy | Dakota Brooks

Chapter 17

Lex's pov

I finish up my food and go to the living room.

Hmm what should I watch today?

Ahs? No I saw that 5 times already. Per season.

What abouttttt, Hannah Montana!

Man I've missed that show.

I'm not making popcorn because I already ate and I'll probably won't even finish it.

---skip to a hour later--

I hear the doorbell rings and I'm a little creeped out.

What if the person sees that I'm watching Hannah Montana and gets weirded out or something?

Oh well who cares?

I walk to the door and slowly open the door.

"What do you want Dakota." I say giving him a glare.

"I need to explain to you everything." He says. He looks sad and his eyes still look glassy; like he just wiped tears away but there's still some in there.

I look at him for a few more seconds and decide to let him in.

He wouldn't try to apologize 3 times for anything.

He walks in and I lead him to the couch.

"Tell me." I say waiting for what's so important that he has to say. (Note my sarcasm)

"What I said earlier was all the truth. I wouldn't try so many times for your forgiveness. But I need it. I really wanted to be with you at lunch and you have to believe me I-"

"Really? Again with the same shit?"

"Look it's not like tha-"

"No. Why do you even care? Shouldn't you be making out with some other girl right now? Why are you here?"

"Please listen to m-"

"Don't be trying to apologize just to make me forgive you so that you can use me when you don't have other girls around you. I'm not gonna fall for it."

"LEX PLEASE LISTEN T-" he says raising his voice while I see some tears forming in his eyes.

He can't be crying. Why would he? He doesn't care about me?

"DAKOTA LOOK IM DONE WITH YOUR SHIT OKAY PLEASE LEAVE"

"NO!" He screams back.

"GO! THIS IS MY HOUSE!"

"NO!" He says again now with a tear falling out of his eye.

"DAKOTA PLEASE LEAV-"

"I LIKE YOU, YOU IDIOT!" He says.

Wait what?

I say silent and he continues.

"IVE LIKED YOU EVER SINCE WE MADE UP AT THE HOSPITAL. YOU LOOKED SO BEAUTIFUL EVEN THOUGH YOU THOUGHT YOU LOOKED HORRIBLE. I LOVED SPENDING TIME WITH YOU! WHEN WE KISSED I FELT SOMETHING I DIDNT FEEL WITH OTHER GIRLS. YOURE DIFFERENT. I WANTED TO BE WITH YOU MORE BUT EVER SINCE THAT BRUNETTE SITUATION, YOU DONT GIVE ME A CHANCE." He says now with his face in his hands. His voice cracked here and then.

Wow. I never thought he would like me. He has so many other girls prettier and better than me wanting to be with him.

Yes I do have some feelings for him and now I feel extremely bad for not believing him. All this time I thought he was just using me while we weren't at school. He had feelings for me and I ignored him at school while he poured his heart out to me trying to apologize.

I walked up to him and took his hands off of his face and lifted his chin up with my finger.

He looks into my eyes. He looks hurt and beyond grief.

I lean in quickly and grab his face while kissing him.

He gets surprised for a second then kisses back.

It was slow and passionate. And there it was again. The sparks.

We pulled away and looked at each other.

"I forgive you Dakota I'm sorry for not believing you this whole time." I say going in for a tight hug.

He says silent and hugs me back.

"Now, let's wipe those tears away and watch my favorite show." I say putting my thumb against his tears wiping them away.

He looks at the tv still on and sees Hannah Montana. He chuckles and smiles when he sees it and looks back at me.

"Really? Hannah Montana?" He says laughing while getting up to go to the other couch with me.

He looks so cute right now even though he just went through a mental breakdown because of me. His eyes are still puffy but are slowly going back to normal.

"Don't judge me." I giggle.

We both sit down on the couch and I put my arms around him and put my head on his chest. He wraps around my waist with his arms and pulls me closer.

I can hear his heart beating. It's calm.

We stay in the same position and watch the show.

IM FUCKING CRYING IT HURT ME WHILE WRITING THIS I HAD TO GO BACK SO MANY TIMES TO FIX THE SPELLING. I WAS FIRST GONNA LET HER FOLLOW THE PLAN AND THEN SHE WOULD GET INTO A PLABE CRASH AND DIE BUT I CHANGED MY MIND. THIS HURT SO MUCH I JUST THOUGHT ABOUT SEEING DAKOTA CRY AND IDK MAN IT JUST REALLY HURT ME. I HOPE YOU GUYS LIKED THIS CHAPTER BC MY EYES ARE STILL CRYING OKAY BYE.
