The Bad Boy Needs Help

The Party || Part 2 [16]

Lexi P.O.V.

Chapter 16

I'm sitting outside the house, music filling my ears and tears crolling down my face.

"What's wrong?" A girl about my age sits next to me and asks.

"Um... Nothing..." I answer, wiping the tears off my cheek.

"I saw that kiss. Why did you run away?" She says.

"It's really a long story." I respond

"I have time"

"Who are you though? I mean, I'm going to tell you my life story and I don't even know your name." I ask and she smiles.

"My name is Valentina. We go to the same school but I'm not in advanced class" Valentina explains.

"How did you know I'm in advanced class?" I ask, what a stalker!

"Everyone knows your schedule! Since you and Reece are dating"

"Oh my god!!! We aren't dating!" I say annoyed and more tears ran down my face.

"Oh... I'm sorry" she apologizes and I just nod.

"Are you going to tell me why you are crying?" Valentina asks

"My mom died when I was ten. She was the person I loved the most. Her name was Clarissa and she was the nicest person ever made in this world. She used to make big charities to poor people every year. I remember one day we were in the park, I was sitting in the swing and I remember being so scared. She came and whispered in my ear 'Princesses don't cry, so don't you cry' " I smile at the memory and sniffle.

"I'm so sorry" Valentina says and I nod. "I still don't understand what this has to do with the kiss" She says and I continue.

"I can't lose another person I love, I can't love again. It just hurts so much." I answer her question and she huggs me, tears spilling from my eyes.

"I'm sorry for ruining your dress" I tell her. Valentina's dress was beauiful! It was pink and strapless, it fitted her perfectly.

"It's fine Lexi." She says rubbing my back.

"Do you want me to take you home?" She asks.

"No, is fine. Im going to stay here for a little" I repond and she nods, guiding me inside.

When I enter to the party, I look for my friends but my eyes guide me to Reece.

He's holding a girl by the waist. Her hair is beautiful and she is really skinny.

The two of them turn around and I notice the girl Reece is holding is Heather. I don't cry, I don't have any tears left. Though I frown and sit in the kitchen counter.

Hours pass and I watch people dance, including Reece and Heather. At first I was so hurt, but now the atch went away.

I know he didn't feel anything in that kiss, though I felt everything. Love, trust, passion. But for Reece, it was just another kiss.

The girls were right. I was falling for him, and hard.

I leave the counter and sit on the couch.

I look at Reece again and see him staring at me, I look down and blush.

I don't get him! First, he starts dancing with Heather and then he is staring at me. Is he out of his mind?!

I don't care if he is,

I already fell for him.

I decide to leave the party and go home, so I start walking.

The walk is at least two hours and with my high heels even more, so I just relax and enjoy the view. By view I mean houses.

Twenty minutes later I realize a car following me and I start walking faster.

"Are you really going to walk all the way to your house?" I recognize the voice and see it's Reece.

"I am" I answer

"Get in the car Lexi" he says dryly

I shake my head and continue walking.

"Come on" He begs but I refuse.

"You have a four hour walk" He tells me and I give up, getting in the car.

When I sit, I turn my body to the right, giving my back to him.

Tears fall of my face and I just can't help but sob. Reece doesn't say anything, though. He just stays quiet.

The drive is long and silent. No words, only my sobs in the background; and I try to quiet them but I just can't.

When we get to my house I look at Reece, maybe he wants to tell me something. Though he just looks at me. I frown and get out of the car.

I open the door and look back, but Reece is not there anymore.
