Strong Love (Janoskians Fan Fiction)

Chapter 15

Alex's POV

It's coming in to winter so I guess I need some jumpers...wait? Does LA even get cold in the Winter? Does it even get a Winter? I should ask someone but I don't want to seem like a total idiot "How cold does it get here in Winter?" I asked a nearby, nice looking woman "About as low as the 40s" She smiled sweetly and was on her way once again. I picked up a plain white knitted jumper then headed to the counter "That's 30 dollars please" I handed her the money and I went on my way once again "There you are! I've been looking for you" I spun around only to have an arm slung over my shoulder "Why are you here Sam? I said I didn't want to be seen in public with you" He smirked and put his hand in mine "Well, I wanted to make sure you were ok so why don't we just hang out huh? For old times sake?" I sighed frustrated but went with it not wanting to cause a scene in the middle of the mall. Sam took me to Costa and I got a hot chocolate "You've got a chocolate tash" Sam laughed and wiped it away with his thumb "Where to next my lady?" I laughed but then stopped myself remember we weren't on good terms and never will be "Forever 21 I think" He nodded and we set off in that direction. 

"How about these?" Sam held up a pair of leggings with cats covering them "Don't think so" I giggled and he just shrugged putting them back on the hanger "How about this?" Without looking up I shook my head "Are you just going to pick up everything and ask me?" I decided to look up and seen him holding a black crop top with white cartoon bones covering it "Wait, don't put it back!" I raced round to the otherside all the while Sam holding a bewildered look on his face "I'll take that thank you" I told him whilst putting it in the basket I was holding that now had two hoodies a pair of jeans a pair of boots and that top inside "You just seem to have money to burn don't you" I laughed and nodded "And I'll have even more when I start back on Monday" I began heading towards the counter before I bought anything else "You work?" I nodded "where?" He questioned "At a tattoo place. It was one of the reasons I moved here" His face dropped a little but he quickly returned to normal thinking I hadn't noticed "I was the other one?" I looked at the floor and nodded a little. The rest of that wait in line was silent until we got out the shop and Sam took my bag "Hey" I whined trying to get the shopping bag back "I'll carry it for you" I stopped trying to grab it back "How very gentlemanly of you" I smiled before heading to the converse shop. I tried to buy blue high-tops myslef but Sam managed to distract me and bought them for me instead "I need the toilet" He was whining like a little baby again "Ok fine. I'll wait out here" I ran off into the bathroom leaving me to stand out here and wait for him "Alex?" I looked up from my phone and seen Jai coming towards me. Shit. "Um...hi" Why was this so awkward? I was closest to him out of all the boys, the guilt was coming back up and I needed to suppress this feeling "Are you like dying or moving away or something?" Huh? "What are you talking about?" I was so confused and he just sighed "I thought you loved him" He whispered to me as if someone was listening "I still do, it's just-" "Ok, let's go" Sam came out of the toilet rubbing his hands together. Jai flashed me a confused look and turned to Sam then back to me again before walking away with his fists clenched "What did he want?" Sam asked a little annoyed "He was just saying hi, let's go back to MY apartment now, my feet hurt"  Sam nodded and we headed back to my car "Wait, why are coming to my car? How did you get here?" He opened the car door "I got the bus" and he was in. 

******************

I sent a quick text to Jai while I was in the toilet trying to explain as much as I could and I basically begged him not to tel Luke that he seen me. He just needed to forget about me. It was the least I could do. I went back out and seen Sam sitting in the corner, the corner I like to lay in "Can you move over that way?" He looked at me confused "Why?" I sighed "Because I like to lay in that corner" He patted his lap "Just rest your head here and your bum there" He said patting the cushion next to him. Well he wasn't going to move so I guess it was the next best thing or just thing. I lay a cushion on his lap then my head on the cushion and started watching The Originals "You actually like this?" I gasped dramatically "You don't?" His legs shaked as he laughed and I felt his fingers begin to run through my hair. Today wasn't too bad I guess, when I was with him today I forgot about our past and it was times like this I felt I was falling for him all over again, which I wasn't, I didn't feeel anything compared to Luke but before I really did love Sam, even though I won't admit it, I liked hanging out with him today, I forgot everything that was going on and it was nice, I just don't want it to last, I just want him to leave so I can hopefully get Luke back. It just won't be happening anytime soon.
