Alex's POV
I'm sitting in my car for about ten minutes deciding if I should keep my word and go talk to Sarah or if I should text her saying I have to go to soccer practice. Coach will kill us if any of us are late. I have to go home and change and then if I still have time I'll go meet with Sarah I decide. She's lucky she's on the way to practice. I get home and change. I don't even know why I should go meet with her. She betrayed me. Some friend she is. Going behind my back and running of with Tyler. Tyler, that little shithead. I'm not sure who I'm more angry with, him or Sarah. I change into my soccer clothes. I went for a more intimidating look by putting on my blue muscle t-shirt. I slam the door on the way out and leave my house and head to the hill.
I'm about twenty minutes late when pull up. I see Alex's through my window looking at her phone. She looks confused and nervous. Well she better be ready because imma about to give her hell. I walk over but she doesn't notice me. She just staring at her phone. Should I just leave? I debate against slapping the phone out of her hand and I make a noise. *cough* *cough* She looks up me and glares. Her eyes are traveling up and down my body. Her eyes bulge some when they meet mine. She is not saying anything, does she except me to start the conversation? Before I can say something she speaks. "Soccer practice?" She ask quickly. No I just wear this because it makes me look sexy, I think to myself. I nod my head yes. Why should I waste my breath on her? She hurt me in the worst way possible, going out with Tyler. My blood starts to boil at him name. I can feel my heart start to race. Sarah's eyes look concerned but I would bet money mine have a fire building in them. "Alex, are you okay?" I look at the ground. With those words my anger at her turns into sarrow for muself. I can feel her looking at my face. I know I look like hell, but that's because I haven't gotten much sleep in the past week. My mind has been filled with thoughts of Tyler and her together this past week. I was fine two weeks ago, why did she have to go and ruin me by talking about him. I feel a hand on my chin. Sarah slowly trys to make me look at her and I let her move my head. Our eyes met an I can feel mine tear up. "Alex, what's wrong? Why won't you talk to me?" My sad eyes turn to rage. My hands clench into fists. Is she trying to blame this on me?! She knows she's in the wrong here! Like hell if I'm the one at fault because I haven't talked to her. "Me?! Not talk to you?! I know what you did Tuesday and who you were with! When were you going to tell me?!" I grit my teeth as I watch as she opens her mouth and closes it again and then looks at the ground. I know she feels like shit and she should! "I-I didn't know how to tell you, he looks so different now, I didn't remember who he was until y-you told me last week when you called him Ty..." Sarah says picking her head up at looks at me. That broke me. I feel myself crying but not because of the mention of Tyler. I was crying because she could have been the one to tell me but no, I had to find out about them when I over heard Roxanne talking to some guy about how she wishs she was with Sarah and not Tyler. Sarah had two people crushing on her now and I can't even get a guy to look at me. My face felt hot. If looks could kill Sarah would have been dead by now. "I haven't talked to him since Tuesday. I never want to hurt you Alex." "But you did..." I say over my sobbing. Her words are like knifes in my heart twisting with every syllable. "I know Alex, I hate that I did, but I don't feel anything toward him" I let my face soften. She knows that I hate liers more than anything. So if she says she feels nothing then I have to believe her. "O-okay" I mumble. My eyes are still wet but I feel more relaxed than I once was. Sarah reachs over and pulls me into a hug. I wrap my arms around her and rest my head on her shoulder. "I'm sorry" Sarah whispers into her ear. I squeeze her a little tighter. I really needed this hug from her. This past week I've felt lost , but now in the arms of my best friend, no, my sister, I feel found. I also feel my phone vibrating at my hip. I take it out to see its a group message from the team.
Coach-has anyone seen Alex?"Shit" Coach is going to run us till we throw up if I'm late. I glace up at Sarah. She give me a slight smile. "I got to go or I'm going to be late!" I say giveing her a small hug and running to my car. I start the engine and pull out as fast as I can. I look back just in time to see Sarah getting in her car. Guess neither of us is going to church today.
