THE COP AND THE POP STAR

CHAPTER 67: CONFESSION

                                                                                         ALYSSA'S VIEW:

After my confrontation with my mom, I went in my room, shut the door, and burst into tears.

I feel sick.  Seeing Kris with Tom. I take comfort in the fact that Tom didn't respond, like she and my mom hoped. Tom rejected her. And it brings a smile to my face, just remembering how he said my hair smelled good and soft, and how he jumped out of bed so fast.

 I'm laughing, and I'm crying. It hurts. That my mom would intentionally want to hurt me like this.  She wanted me to get my heart broken again.

I suspect that her reasons were because she wants me with Rodney. She made it a point to say that he would still escort me to the wedding.

I have no doubt my mom arranged this, but I'm sure she didn't have to twist Kris's arm. Tom is so hot.

Just the fact that my mom would arrange this, knowing that I would be hurt. I mean she thinks we are a real couple. She doesn't know we are fake. But I am in love with him. And it just hurts.

I wasn't sure what to do about Tom. I wasn't ready to face him, I needed time to think about whether I tell him or not that I saw what happened. Or do I say nothing and see if he tells me.

Tom did nothing wrong, and I also know that as a man he may feel violated, and if that happened to me, it's not something you want to talk about.

I also don't know what to tell him about why I just stood there, not letting him know I was there. I was going to stop her. By the time I got there, she was already getting in bed with him. Right before I was going to yell at her to stop and hopefully wake him up, I heard his voice, and then I didn't know what to do. So, I did nothing. If he's mad at me. I understand. I froze.

There is a knock on my door, and before I can answer, it just keeps on knocking, getting louder and louder.

Then Tom said, "Alyssa, please are you awake. We have to talk."  

I said, "Come in Tommy."

                                                                                   TOM'S VIEW:

I'm so stupid. I have messed so many things up.

Why the hell did I let that bitch leave my room. I should have forced her to stay in there, while I went and told Alyssa.

What if she got to Alyssa already? No, she couldn't have, I watched her walk down the stairs.

I can't wait on this. I'm not sure what to say, how to explain this, but I have to tell Alyssa now. Not waste another minute.

I knocked on her door. I hate to wake her up. But she didn't answer. And I am desperate to talk to her, so I start pounding on her door almost.

I heard her say, "Come in Tommy."

I slowly open the door and come into her room.  I close the door behind me.

She said, "Hey Tommy."

She gives me a hug. It feels so good to be in her arms, and hug her, but I can't be hugging her right now. Not when I tell her what I have to tell her, and she may hate me. Part of me wants to hug her and never let go, but I have to.

I said, "Alyssa, we have to talk. I'm so sorry. I don't know how to tell you this. But you have to believe me. Alyssa, I swear on my dad's memory, I swear to God I would not lie to you about this. I'm not lying."

She said, "Tom it's okay."

I said, 'No it's not okay. I'm not sure what to do to make it okay. But you have to listen to me. Please can you sit down."
