Chapter Eleven

***Max on the side***
:) He's yummy looking! (Licks lips)

Days went by fast, and weeks went by quicker. Ace had taken me out a few times. Each time him questioning me about my past but I'd always avoid it. He wants to know why I've changed but I'm pretty sure my bullsh!t answers were enough. Right? Max hangs out with us a lot now too. He's actually really funny and adorable. Like the brother I never had. I really like them both but I knew better then to make friends. They would never be there for me in the end right? Isn't that what he said. Ace was only my friend because of  Blake. So why is he here now trying to hangout all the time and taking me to places. We've kissed a few times and such but nothing more. I don't want anything more. Not if he will just run in the end.

Right now I was just hitting a practice dummy a few time and getting my anger out. My thoughts were over flowing and I needed some thinking time. My music was blaring as usual but suddenly came to a stop. This caught my attention and I looked up to the culprit. Of course Ace is standing by the radio with his arms crossed. He hates that I listen to music so loud. He's convinced I'll go deaf. Why does he care? I sure as h€ll don't.

He walked over to me and as soon as he was close enough, he grabbed my face and kissed me hard. I was caught off guard by the sudden rush and didn't have time to react by the time he pulled away leaving me gasping for air. "Your sweaty." He stated, I rolled my eyes. I wasn't working out or anything. "Nah sh!t."

His face contorted into a pout not liking my attitude I'm sure. Then it turned up into a smirk. "Well I need you to go shower and get dressed. Now." Leaving no time for my questions he walked back out of the gym. Him being my coach meant I probably should do what he asks of me.

I don't know how he did it, but somehow I'm sitting in his car wearing a very expensive dress and my hair is curled and twisted in a perfect up do. Let me explain. As soon as we got to his apartment he threw me in a room and told me not to come out until I had the dress on, so I put it on and then some random girl came in there explaining to me she's Max's sister, Hope, and had to do my hair and makeup. I objected at first but after Ace telling me he will tie me to a chair and somehow get my hair done wether I like it or not got me to agree the easy way. Mostly because being tied brought back to many memories.

Now we are sitting a car to who knows. Well obviously Ace knows.

We were going down all the familiar roads once again hitting me hard with all the memories I'm trying to run from. Why he keeps bringing me back? I don't know. Something in me feels like he's trying to break me, trying to put me in the worst position possible just to hurt me. The other side believes he's trying to bring the old me back. Well the old me that he saw. The happy go lucky girl. The cheerleader that made everyone smile and laugh. The girl that no one saw was dying on the inside. Who would care after all? It's my them who was hurting.

My thoughts came to a stop as he parked the car in a very crowded driveway that led to a mansion. You could hear the soft music playing. I didn't recognize who's house this was thank god. If it was Blake's I think I would have just died on spot. Okay over dramatic maybe just faint on spot. Either way I would not be going in.

Ace opened my door and reached for my hand. I gave it to him with a look full of question. Where are we? I tried to ask him with my eyes or maybe I could like brain to brain talk with him? No that doesn't work. Either way he ignored my questionable face and grabbed my hand pulling me out of the car with grace. He walked us to the front door and with a single knock, it was pulled open by a slightly older man well dressed. "May I take your coats?" He asked gracefully. His body was stiff. Ace and I handed our coats over to him and he led me more into the house.

As soon as we came to the entrance of what looked like a ballroom, I gasped. All the familiar faces slowly met mine. I couldn't handle this. To many people. To many memories. I was just about to turn and run when I felt Ace squeeze my hand reassuringly. I looked up at him with panic. He leaned down and whispered in my ear, "it's alright. I'm right here if your need me. I won't let anything happen." It's like he knew what I was thinking. Does he know what happened? Is that why he said that? Does he know about Blake? I slowly nodded and leaned into him more hoping that he could help hide me. I'm afraid my blue dress didn't do well with fitting in because it was quite bright compared to the other dresses here. But more expensive in sure. For a moment I thought I could get through this night until I heard it.

"Ally! Is that you?"
