After 2

Chapter 24

James pov

I haven't been able to stop thinking about kissing Michelle since the other night. I really need to clear things up with her.
"Hey Ella I'm going out for a bit. I'll be back in about an hour" I tell Ella
"Okay" she smiles
"Need anything?" I ask walking over to her.
"Hmmm" she thinks while pulling funny faces. I laugh a little but she doesn't notice, "I'm alright thanks"
"Suit yourself" I smile and kiss the top of her head before leaving. As I'm walking over to Michelle's dorm I recite what I'm going to say.
I'm sorry for kissing you the other night. I' didn't mean to. Nah I can't say that. Before I know it I'm at her room. I knock and within seconds Cierra opens the door.
"Hi oh it's you"
"Is Michelle in?" I ask, ignoring her attitude.
"Why?" She folds her arm and leans against the doorway. "Why could you possibly want to see her?"
"Because I need to talk to her" I say trying to control my temper.
"Well I'm sorry she's not in and in fact I haven't seen her since the other night when her and Richelle went out. She didn't come last night either"
I knew I should've driven her home.
"Has she made any contact with either of you?" I ask, panic starting to take over.
"Yes well kinda of. I got this weird text message around 12:45am last night"
She shows me her phone and I read the message.
I cannot be left alone in shoe stores. I make a big mess and get me and the innocent kicked out. I constantly need supervision before entering a store :D
"What the?" I know Michelle. She would never say that. Not even when she's drunk.
"It honestly gets weirder" Cierra says "scroll down"
Sorry, that was Alfie :))
King Alfie ;D
"Who is Alfie?" Something inside me stirs. Jealousy? Concern?
"I'm not sure but I think she's with him. I can let you know when she's returned or I can take a message?"
"Just text me when she's back. Thanks Cie" I say not really in focus.
I just can't believe that Michelle would stay at some guys house. Like Cierra didn't even know him and she knows everything about Michelle and she would never let me go on her phone like that let alone send people messages.
I gotta find out who Alfie is.

Michelle's pov

"Alfie I will kill you" I say as he backs me up into a corner with a bowl of flour in his hands.
"I can live with that" he smirks.
"Alfie I swear you will not live to-"
Too late. I'm not drenched in flour.
"You. Are. Dead. To. Me" I say giving him a death stare. A flash of fear strikes his face.
"Oh yes. Be afraid Alfred. Be very afraid"
"Alfred?" He lowers his guard by me confusing him so I pounce. Transferring the flour from me to him. He lets out a Yelp while I laugh manically.
"What's going on in here?" A angry voice beckons from the door way. Alfie swings around, me clinging to his back.
"AFLIES FAULT!" I shout and jump off his back. They both give me a questioned look.
"Alfie clean this up. Michelle, you might want to take a shower" Thomas says.
"Good idea" I say just as flour falls from my head onto the ground.

After I get out of the shower and am changed into fresh clean clothes, I check my phone for the first time today.
