Girl Next Door- an Emblem3 story

"Trust"

Alexis's POV

I woke up. I looked over to my clock, it was one in the afternoon. I didn't move at all. I didn't care that half my day was gone. I don't need to do anything else here. I'm done here. What happened here is forgotten and put in a safe to be locked up.

All I had to do was tell Wes. I'm not sure what terms we are on. But I know it will be difficult to tell him. I love him, but I can't stay here. I can't do this. He will have no problem finding another girl that will be special. Wes will be fine, drew even says that he goes through girls like that, forgetting them. He doesn't need me. I'm just messing up his life.

Wes POV

I woke up to the yell from Keaton "Wes get your lazy ass up, were going surfing!"

"Go by yourself!"

"Wes I'm going because you need it!" I didn't respond so he just walked away from the closed door. Finally peace and quiet. It must have been 10 minutes when foot steps came to the door again. "Wes I'm giving you one last chance" I didn't move. "Okay you asked for it" before I could answer he barged into my room with a giant smirk and a bowl

"Keaton take your cereal and go back to the kitchen." He started laughing while that grin got bigger. "Keaton....." He was walking closer to me. "Keaton stop!" He laughed before I could react he dumped the bowl on me. The water splashed on me, soaking my bed. Might I add, it was freezing. I gritted my teeth, "keeeeaton" his smirk never vanished. "Your dead." He sprinted away before I could grab the collar of his shirt. I chased after him down the stairs. He turned the corner and into the kitchen. I followed, on his tail. When I entered the room he was on one side of the island and I was on the other. We sat there for awhile, he waited for me to make my move. I smirked on the inside as I walked out of the kitchen turning the corner. Thinking I went back up stairs keaton slowly came around the corner. When I saw him I jumped on him, tackling him to the floor. He was laughing, and so was I.

Keaton's POV

Wes and I went surfing then to the skate park. I don't think he ever thought about Alexis or Kimmy. It was great! We had fun spending time together, we haven't done that in awhile. We were heading back to the house when my phone rang. I saw it was Alexis, quickly I picked up, not allowing Wes to see the caller ID.

"Umm hello."

"Hi Keaton... Are you with Wes?"

"Ya"

"O. Umm okay."

"We are heading home. I could see u if u wanted?"

"Uh nono it's fine. I actually wanted to talk to Wes. But didn't want to disturb anything."

"O so you can disturb me though" I joked. She laughed slightly. "Yes Keaton. I'm gonna be a pain in your ass till the day I leave." I laughed and then their was silence. I didn't know why. I was trying to think what happened while she just said nothing waiting for the subject to pass. What was said that made her feel awkward. "Well anyway. I guess I'll go"

"No lex." I saw Wes jump when I said her name. His shoulders tightened and he looked up from the ground to look at me.

Alexis's POV

"Uhuh you wanna come over for dinner?..." Keaton asked. Before j can think I responded, "yay sure" once I said it I regretted it. I cannot see Wes. I don't know what to say. "Cool see you then." And like that Keaton hung up. Well I guess I'm going to the Stromberg's for dinner. It won't be that awkward. I'll talk to Keaton and mrs.stromberg. And once the time is right, I'll talk to Wes.

Wes POV

"Wes, I'm sorry. I know things are awkward for you right now, but you love her." I put my hand threw my hair. "Ya I guess." Is all i said. "Wes you guess you love her? No you love her like more than you've liked any girl." I know he's right. I know I love her. That's not the problem. The problem is that i let Kimmy between us, i let her get hurt. She can't trust me.

My goal: get Alexis's trust back.
