Rejection Does Hurt

Don't Break Her Heart

Alexis' POV:

I logged off facebook and called Chloe, at least I know she's there for me.

"Hello?" Chloe answered the phone, how wonderful it was to hear her voice.

"Chloe? Look, I know you're disappointed in me right now and you don't want to talk to me, but I need to talk to you," I sobbed.

"Shh, it's okay. I'm coming over," Chloe told me. I nodded and hung up the phone. About 15 minutes later, she texted me to open the door.

I went downstairs and opened the door for her. The first thing she was go into the kitchen where Drake and Kyle were. I followed her in.

"Dumbass, much?!" Chloe snapped and shoved Drake, who was on his phone.

"Goodbye, Chloe," Kyle rolled his eyes at her and pointed to the door as a signal to leave.

"How could you do that to her? Do you even get how much she likes you? She trusted you with something that she valued so much and you make her that laughing stock of the school!" Chloe yelled, "are you proud of yourself? How does that make you feel? Like a man now?"

Drake looked at her but stayed quiet, he looked speechless. I was speechless myself, I've never seen Chloe upset or angry or snap at anybody before.

"God I use root for you guys," she continued, "I use to think you were the perfect guy for her but I was wrong,"

Chloe turned around and grabbed my hand and we went upstairs into my bedroom.

"Thank you," I whispered to her.

"So what's gonna happen with you guys now?" Chloe asked.

"I don't know," I shrugged. "I mean, I know he didn't mean for any of this happen, but I asked him one thing and it was for him not to tell anyone. Just one thing, Chloe. I don't know if I can trust him again,"

"I wouldn't trust him, if I were you. I mean this wasn't a little secret like who you like or something. I know that your virginity was a big deal to you and for him to tell someone and laugh about that you were scared is horrible," Chloe told me.

I nodded my head in agreement and sighed.

"I really like him, Chloe. He's the only guy I've ever liked. I've rejected every guy because he was the only one I wanted to be with," I told her.

"I know, I'm your best friend. I was next to you when you rejected all those guys," she chuckled.

"I always wanted to be with him, but now that I have it, I'm not sure I want it. I had an ideal version of him in my head, but that's not how he really is," I explained to her.

"It was better just fantasizing about him then having the real thing right?" Chloe asked.

I nodded and sighed.

"I know you don't want to, but if you're not happy, then you have to let him go. I know you guys aren't even official, but these past few weeks haven't been easy for you and he's not the guy you've dreamed about, so why hold on?" Chloe said.

I thought about what she said for a minute.

"For years I wanted him to notice me. Like if he even glanced at me, it would make my day. I wanted him to notice me, care for me, and maybe, like me. Now that I have it, it's hard to let that go," I told her.

Drake's POV:

I thought about what Chloe said to me. I didn't mean to hurt Alexis, I would never do that. I always thought I loved her in a little sister way, but I love her in a romantic way, I don't know why I didn't realize it earlier. I care about her a lot. I snuck upstairs to hear what the girls were talking about.

I don't know," Alexis said, "I mean, I know he didn't mean for any of this happen, but I asked him one thing and it was for him not to tell anyone. Just one thing, Chloe. I don't know if I can trust him again,"

Those words "I don't know if I can trust him again" hurt me so much.

"I wouldn't trust him, if I were you. I mean this wasn't a little secret like who you like or something. I know that your virginity was a big deal to you and for him to tell someone and laugh about that you were scared is horrible," Chloe told her.

"I really like him, Chloe. He's the only guy I've ever liked. I've rejected every guy because he was the only one I wanted to be with," Alexis said.

"I know, I'm your best friend. I was next to you when you rejected all those guys," Chloe chuckled.

"I always wanted to be with him, but now that I have it, I'm not sure I want it. I had an ideal version of him in my head, but that's not how he really is," Alexis explained to her.

"It was better just fantasizing about him then having the real thing right?" Chloe asked.

I never knew how deeply Alexis liked me. She's never really said it out loud to me, so I never I thought about it. But hearing what she told Chloe makes me feel a little better. I continued to listen.

"I know you don't want to, but if you're not happy, then you have to let him go. I know you guys aren't even official, but these past few weeks haven't been easy for you and he's not the guy you've dreamed about, so why hold on?" Chloe said.

There was an awkward silence for a couple of seconds.

"For years I wanted him to notice me. Like if he even glanced at me, it would make my day. I wanted him to notice me, care for me, and maybe, like me. Now that I have it, it's hard to let that go," Alexis told her.

I went back downstairs where Kyle was. I shook my head and sighed.

"What happened?" Kyle asked.

"Did you know how Lexi felt about me before she actually admitted it to you?" I asked him.

"I mean, I honestly had no clue, but when she told me, I thought about it. She use to blush and act all shy around you all the time, even if we just mentioned your name, she would blush and smile. But besides that, she never really acted like she liked you, so it caught me off guard," he told me.

I nodded. I don't know why I didn't catch on either, she was so quiet around me and loud and bubbly around everyone else. I never put it together.

"Why?" Kyle asked and raised an eyebrow.

"No reason. I was just listening to what she was telling Chloe about how much she likes me," I answered, "I didn't mean to hurt her,"

"You're my best friend, you know that. But this is my little sister, we're talking about. Not Melissa or Kim or anybody else. My sister. I know how much she can take and how vulnerable she can be. Don't break her heart," he told me.

"I think it's too late for the that," I whispered to myself.

"You took my sisters virginity, one thing she can never get back. I promise you, if you hurt her one more time, I will calmly end this friendship," Kyle warned me, which surprised me.

"I think it's better if Lexi and I just end things," I told him,"I don't want to hurt her and I don't want to ruin my friendship with you," I said.

"It's not that hard, Drake. Just don't hurt her, it's simple. Be a guy who she can trust and love, you're acting like is something you can't do. You can, just step up and do it," Kyle told me.

"So what am I supposed to do now?" I asked. I honestly have no idea on what I should do.

Kyle shrugged. "Look, I don't know. I've never been in a relationship before, but I guess give her a couple of days and talk to her. Tell her how you really feel and stop hiding. You guys have to be open with each other in order for this relationship to work,"
