TYTAN'S POV

I felt like someone had tossed a brick on my head. What was I thinking picking up an entire bottle of vodka?! How does one even make such a fucking stupid decision?!

Right. By being stupid!

A rough growl- like sound resounded from my parched throat.

I need a drink. Preferably something strong.

I felt something soft under my arms, it was like a bony pillow. I was too tired to open my eyes and fight the sunlight.

What happened last night? I took my hand to my forehead and found the courage to open my eyes. I looked at the ceiling and my heart rate picked up like a hamster on a treadmill.

I was in Lexi's room.

I heard a small hmph and froze momentarily.

Her tiny frame was pressed against my chest. My large arm was around her dainty waist.

I found my fingers wandering to her cheek, caressing it. She always made my skin feel like I was on fire. Like my body was burning with excitement. I pushed her hair away from her face and gently passed my thumb over her lips. They tickled.

I passed a hand through my hair and just observed her.

Fuck, she was beautiful.

I had made her cry. Those big tears were racing down her pink cheeks. How could I forget that? I couldn't erase the image of her crying from my head.

I was mad at her. I was mad at her for the things she did to me. I felt confused. So fucking confused about everything. When Rose came up... I realised how fucked up everything was. The idea of being with her was tempting yet, I couldn't find myself to be half as excited as I should be?

Yet all I could think about was- was Lexi because she was doing bad things to me without even trying.

I couldn't imagine what would happen if I had to choose between her and my princess.

Deep down I knew the answer. It was an answer that scared me. I had always been afraid of change, knowing that it was inevitable. And this was a change I wasn't ready for.

But I knew Lexi didn't deserve a fuck up like me. I would end up breaking her with no one to go to.

Hold on, I already did that. I shook my head.
She could never hurt me as much as I hurt her because she has a functioning conscience. She cared about me. That's why she gets hurt in the first place.

Alexa Harrison was a strong girl. She had her own way of dealing with life but she never gave up. She didn't cry. She thought that there was nothing her tears were worth and yet she cried because of me. I didn't know whether to feel elated or defeated.

My head was throbbing. I don't know how I ended up here or what I was doing thinking about Lexi but one thing was clear, it was wrong.

It was wrong because I have a date with Rose tomorrow. I couldn't be all over Lexi, not when Rose was in the picture.

I was afraid. The spark I had with Rose had gone off and I couldn't hide that from myself. But how could I not give it another chance? I had to be sure because she was here just for me.

Rose Parker came here to be with me again and I was the one backing away now because I had a crush on Lexi.

A sudden shrill scream pulled me out of my thoughts.
