I looked at her, not really knowing what to say. After a few seconds I stood up onto my feet, breaking eye contact. "Lex! Are you ready to go yet?" I didn't hear a reply which means that she defiantly didn't hear Amanda's confession. It's not like I've never heard millions of girls tell me they love me. It's just strange hearing it from someone you know and you don't thing of them as anything more than a friend.

"Bruno. Just hear me out!" She clutched onto my arm desperately as she stood up, too close for my comfort. I didn't want to look at her. I couldn't. "I know this isn't really anything you want to hear. But like it or not, I can't deny the feelings I have for you!" Her death grip on my arm un-tightened as she gently rubbed where she held not long ago.

Before I was going to answer. Well. If I was going to answer, my phone rang in my pocket. I think I can gladly say, I was saved by my phone from an awkward moment. I lifted it out and looked at the screen. Ryan. "I have to take this" I muttered as I walked out the door and felt the cold, crisp air run past me. "Hey, man. What's up?" I could hear a beeping in the background before he spoke.

"I wanna know if you're gonna come watch the game with me? Or are you gonna ditch me again for your girl?" I laughed. "I got popcorn, beers, everything. So you coming or not?" I remembered the last time we had popcorn while watching the game. Our team scored and we jumped up, cheering, while the popcorn flew everywhere. Geronimo started to eat it while we were cleaning it up. Poor guy wasn't very well for a few days...

"Alright. I'm on my way. But keep that stuff away from G!" With that, I hung up. I hesitated to open the door, not really wanting to go back in there. I maned up and walked in. I walked straight to Lexi's room, not bothering to look to see if Amanda is still there or not. I walked in to see her on her phone while slowly picking up clothes. "Hey, baby. Me and Ryan are going to watch the game at mine. You can join us if you want?" I asked, already knowing the answer.

She glanced up from the phone to look at me. "I'll stay here, you go ahead..." She quickly smiled before looking back at her phone screen again.

"Alright. How about we do something later? Go to the movies or something?" I walked up towards her and wrapped my arms around her waist, pulled her towards me. She looked back up at me again.

"Sure. I'll text you" she leaned up and kissed me with a little more force than I expected. Before we went into a full make out session, I pulled away. I planted one last kiss on her forehead before I walked out of her bedroom.

Once again, I walked straight past Amanda and out of the door. I then got straight into my car.

"That was the best, most romantic part of the film!" She said with a smile plastered on her face. We walked across the concrete floor, towards her apartment door. We just watched a movie that she was really wanting to watch. She loved it, but I thought it was too cheesy.

"It wasn't! Awkward was written all over their face. And man, don't I'm not gonna mention about how bad the 'sex' they had was" I shook my head remembering how bad and unrealistic it was.

Her jaw dropped open and her eyes widened. "It was romantic! And the sex scene was great" I raised my eyebrow at her while I stopped walking, only a few feet away from the door. She stopped walking also and looked at me.

"You could see she didn't want to be there. She didn't even scream his name once! No wonder they only had sex that once." To be honest, I never thought I would be in this situation. Lex and I talking about the sex on a film we not long ago watched.

"She loved it! It was obvious!" I started walking closer to her.

"You know when girls are enjoying themselves when the neighbourhood knows his name, when there are fingernail marks on his back, when her body trembles. I mean. You should know this, you've experienced it all..." She started to back up as I slowly got closer towards her. Her back hit the wall beside the door. My body pressed up against hers.

I placed each hand either side of her head, so there was no escape. "So you're telling me that you have nail marks on your back?" Her arms crossed over her chest as she looked at me smirking as if she didn't believe me.

"Well we made love not long ago, even though it seems like years. But yeah, I'm pretty sure I do. Why don't you check for any of my flesh under your daggers that you call nails?" She uncrossed her arms and pushed me away, determined expression on her face still. She opened the door and pulled me inside. As soon as the door shut she turned me around so my back was towards her.

Her hands gripped on my jacked shoulders and pulled it down my arms, putting the black material on a hook near the door. Her hands next reached for the bottom of my shirt, pulling it all the way off. "Wow." I smirked with my back still towards her. Her hand ran across the top half of my back, I closed my eyes while trying to ignore the little pain I was getting and from the coldness of her hands.

"Lex? Is that you?" Amanda's voice Echo'd from another room. Within a few seconds she stood in the living room looking in my direction. My back still facing that way. "What happened? How'd you do that?" Her jaw dropped as she walked over and stood next to Lex.

What surprised me is that I felt another hand run over my back. But this one was warm and it felt nice on my back as I didn't feel any pain as her hand traced the marks. It felt nice. I quickly un scrunched my shirt that was in my hands and placed it on, not really wanting to be shirtless with a girl who not long ago admitted her feeling for me.

"How'd that happen?" I looked across at Lex who was looking away, blushing. I looked at Amanda who was looking at me, still expecting an answer.

"I scraped it on a wall by accident." I quickly replied, hoping she would believe me.

"And it turned out like that?" She questioned further, not really believing it.

"It wasn't a smooth surface." She nodded her head, looking like she excepted my answer. Lex looked at me with a small smile, glad that the awkwardness she felt had gone.

"Oh, right. So how was the movie? Was it any good?" I shook my head while Lex nodded hers.

"It was amazing! It was so romantic and I totally ship them, they're so cute together!" The excitement was noticeable in Lexi's eyes as she said what she thought about the film.

"It was too cheesy for me." Lex shot me a glare. I held me hands up. "It's just an opinion!" I laughed at her expression.

"Sounds like a good movie. Anyway, I'm going bed since it's late. Night" both of us said goodnight back and watched her as she walked out of the room.

Lex walked closer to me as my back rested against the wall. "I swear , I'll make you watch that film over and over until you admit that you love it" as soon as her body was in reaching distance, I pulled her against me but flipped positions so that she was against the wall.

"Why don't we just make our own movie? I'll show you how the girl should be. How it all should happen..." She smiled shyly at me.

"Are you trying to suggest that we make our own sex tape?" I bust out laughing, not realising that it was what I was basically trying to say.
