My BabyGirl (GirlxGirl)

Chapter 21

Alex POV

" Ok mom, thanks for calling" I said before hanging up the phone. My mother and I never had a good relationship and she only called me if someone died or was sick. My grandfather died from a heart attack . I felt a tear roll down my cheek and my heart drop. "Alex..." I heard Riley say walking into our room at her apartment. I looked up at her and felt my eyes water up more. "Alex... what's wrong?" I broke. Tears rushed down my face as she wrapped her arms around me. I melted into her embrace. " My g-grandfather died from a heart attack last night" I choked out between cries. I laid down still in her embrace. She kept kissing my forehead. " He was the only one who accepted me" I said wiping my eyes with my free hand. " I am sorry Baby" she put a piece of my hair behind my ear. " I wish I could say goodbye one last time" I put my head down on Riley's chest listening to her heartbeat. We laid there for hours and talked about memories I had of him.

Riley POV

"Alex..." I said walking into our room. I heard her end the conversation on the phone so I walked in. She looked up at me and her eyes were watery. " Alex... what's wrong?" I headed to sit next to her. She broke. Tears started rushing down her face. I wrapped my arms around her. She melted into my embrace. I knew what ever happened was bad. " My g-grandfather died from a heart attack last night." she choked out between cries. She laid down and pulled me down still in my embrace. My heart dropped. It hurt me to see her upset. I kissed her forehead multiple times. " He was the only one who accepted me" she wiped her tears away with her free hand. " I am sorry Baby" is all I said. I didn't know what to say.  I placed a piece of her hair behind her ear. " I wish I could say goodbye one last time" She put her head down on my chest. I knew she was listening to my heartbeat. If she was stressed or tired she would listen to my heartbeat to relax her.

 I laid there with her for who knows how many hours listening her talk about memories she had with him. One was sweet that I know I would remember. It was when she came out. " I came out to him, he was the first one, I was crying and he wrapped his arms around me. He told me he would accept me only if I accepted him. He was Gay too. We were always together and we were bestfriends" she said. I smiled and looked at her. She looked up at me and smiled back. " I wish I could have met him, he sounds like a amazing human" she nodded and sat up. I followed her actions. She sighed and looked at me. " I wish you could meet him too" she leaned over and pecked my lips. "Your the best" she mumbled against my lips. " so are you Alex" I smiled and pecked her lips on more time. I looked at my watch and saw it read 12:23am. " Its late , cuddles?" I got up and headed to my dresser. " Hell yes" she giggled a little bit. I changed and turned around to see Alex on her side of the bed only in a sports bra waiting for me. I walked over to my side and climbed in. I cuddled up to her and this time resting my head on her shoulder. I turned on USA TV and we watched Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.
