Next Day...

Alex grabs her backpack and starts heading to the door. She sees her dad in his office, he stares at her. She looks away and continues to walk to the door. He quickly gets up and walks out of the room

Dad: You're walking to school?

She stops and stares at the door

Alex: I'm taking the bus

Dad: Why can't I take you?

She stays quiet

Dad: Alex look at me

Alex: I can't right now

Dad: Let's just talk about it

Alex: Jesus dad... Please

Dad: If you didn't feel something you would have stopped it from happening

She sighs

Dad: And you didn't, you let it happen

She hits the door then walks over to him

Alex: I have a fucking boyfriend dad! Did you forget that?! I cheated on him with YOU! MY FUCKING DAD!! I've been cheated on and used but then I do the same to someone I really like!

She tears up

Dad: But you love me Alex and I love you

Alex: I know dad but right now I need time to think

She walks to the door and opens it. Dexter is standing outside, she jumps

Alex: Jesus... Dexter; What are you doing here?

Dexter: Well you took off pretty fast yesterday after the club and I've been trying to get ahold of you all last night so I came to make sure you were alright

Alex turns around and notices her dad wasn't there. She looks back at Dexter

Alex: Yeah I'm fine actually just had to do alot of homework last night

Dexter: Oh that's good, you had me really worried

Alex: Sorry

Dexter: It's ok... Oh I got you these

He shows her flowers

Dexter: In case you weren't feeling good or something

She smiles and takes them

Alex: Thank you Dexter, I love them

She tears up. He walks up to her

Dexter: Hey what's wrong?

Alex: It's just that... You've been nothing but nice to me and...

She starts crying and backs away to the side and hits the wall. Dexter goes inside the house and closes the door behind him

Dexter: Alex?

She sets the flowers down and hugs him tightly. He hugs back, confused as she cries more. They move around, Alex looks over his shoulder and sees her dad watching from the corner of his office. She knew from the look he gave her, he was jealous. He walks away. She wipes her tears and looks at Dexter

Alex: Sorry about that

Dexter: It's ok. Are you alright?

She nods

Alex: Better head to school then

Dexter: Do you need a ride?

Alex: Yeah please

She picks the flowers up

Alex: Just give me a sec

She goes in the kitchen, grabs a glass cup, fills it up with water and puts the flowers in it. She stares at them and takes a deep breath. Dexter walks halfway down the hall then sees her dad, he had his hand on his face. Dexter then walks over as her dad looks at him

 Dexter then walks over as her dad looks at him

Dexter: Hi

Her dad smiles and waves back. Alex passes by, grabs Dexter, and pulls him out of the room as they walk to the door and leave

Dexter: Is your dad alright?

Alex: He's fine

Her dad watches from the window of them getting on Dexter's scooter and taking off. He gets up and walks over to the kitchen where he sees the flowers. He grabs the cup and walks away. As Dexter and Alex are heading to school she starts thinking about her dad then shakes her head as last night events start to play in her head. She goes to Dexter's ear

Alex: Can you pull over really fast?

He nods then pulls to the side. She gets off

Dexter: What's wrong?

She looks at him and kisses him passionately. He's shocked but does the same. As they're kissing images of her and her dad start playing again but of them kissing. She tries hard to not think of it. Dexter stops her and smiles

Dexter: We really need to get to school you know?

Alex: I know I just...

Dexter: You just what?

She hugs him and kisses his cheek

Alex: You've been so good to me Dexter

He smiles and hugs her tightly, kissing her cheek

Dexter: You're welcome beautiful
