(Winston's P.O.V)
Breakfast with Alice's dad wasnt as bad as we thought it would be, even though I could tell she was nervous the entire time, and I loved those looks she gave me whenever I say something inappropriate and how she'd try to change the subject.
"I have to go meet the guys now" I say excusing myself, "it was nice to meet you sir" I shake his hand.
"great meeting you Winston" he nodded.
I arrive at Nicks place and they were all sitting in the living room messing around with their instruments.
"hey where were you last night?" Nick asked me.
"i..was over at..Alice's place" I said after i struggled trying to find a better answer and was followed by Ooh's from some guys.
"so what are you going to do?" Marcus asked me as I threw myself on the couch opening up a can of beer.
"about what?" I said.
"we're leaving in two weeks mate" Marcus said, maybe he thought I forgot but I didn't.
"yeah so?" I said and he gave me a look.
"so you two are just going to see eachother whenever we come to London?" Ben asked me.
"which is like what? 5-6 times a year?" Marcus adds.
"I don't know! we're just taking each day as it comes..I don't know how this will work" I explained.
That's when it hit me, how are we going to make this work? I mean I really like Alice and care about her lots. But what will happen when I leave? I care about her way too much to hurt her this way.
I pull out my phone and dial her number.
"Hello" her sweet voice answered.
"Hey beautiful..um..can we meet tonight?" I said.
"yeah sure, wanna come over?" she asked.
"yeah, I'll be over by 8" I tell her.
"shit I forgot about my dad, maybe we should meet somewhere or something," she fussed.
" meet you at that café we went to the last time?" I asked.
"great ill see you then" she agreed "my shift ends at 7" she added and I could tell how excited she was by her tone which only made me feel more horrible about this.
(Alice's P.O.V)
Something wasnt right with Winston, just the way his voice sounded wasnt the same, but still I couldn't wait for my shift to be over, I just wanted to spend the rest of the day with him doing nothing.
it was finally 7 , i put on my leather jacket and headed for the door. I walked in the café and saw Winston sitting on the same table, he saw me and smiled sweetly but his eyes looked so sad and I knew at that moment something was definitely not right.
"what's up" I ask sitting down and taking off my jacket.
"I just wanted to talk to you" he replied.
"is everything ok?" I ask in concern.
"it's just.." he murmured.
"Winston spit it out its ok" I tell him with my hand over his.
"I guess I didn't realize how short a week is" he scoffed.
that's when it made sense, I knew what he wanted to say to me.
"look Winston it's fine, we can be friends it's cool" I tell him and he looks at me.
"that's not..I don't.." he struggled to find words.
"there's a reason you called to meet isnt there?" I said smiling at him in attepmt to make him feel better.
"yeah I guess..I guess I was confused I didn't know what to do" he told me.
"we can be friends I mean it wasnt a serious thing, it's not like we're in love..or anything" I scoffed, but the last few words kind if hurt for me to say.
"yeah i guess youre right" he nodded and smiled at me.
"friends?" I said extending my hand.
"friends" he smiled and shook it.
-I didn't want to be friends.-
(Winston's P.O.V)
I didn't expect her to react that way, she was very calm and cool about it.
I regretted calling her, I wished I thought about it, thought about what do to or how to make it work, hell I could've brought her along with us. I just-I don't want to be friends.
