Damaged

Part 21

"What are you doing here?" I asked out, while I quickly blocked the walkway to the kitchen. Leaning back slightly to see if the kitchen was empty and surprisingly it was. I finally looked back at Alex in relief, but I was back to being worried when I saw her face.

Her eyes were all red and puffy. She had been crying.

"What's wrong?" I made my way over to her. Wrapping her in my arms and pulling her into the kitchen. I sat her down in one of the bar stools and took her face in my hands wiping the new tears that were falling down her face. "What happened sweetie?" I asked again trying to get some answers.

She finally made eye contact with me. I could tell she was really thinking hard about whether or not she was actually going to tell me. And when she opened her mouth I really thought she was finally going to open up to me, but instead she pulled me closer to her and kissed me. Hard. I kissed her back without thinking, being consumed by her like always. It wasn't until I felt her hand sneaking up my shirt and on my bare skin did I realize what was happening.

I pulled away from her taking a step back. "We should stop, we should be talking about why you are upset not making out."

"Please Chris, I don't want to talk. I just need to feel you." She pleaded to me.

"Alex..." Before I could finish my protest I heard a loud bang coming from the room next room. "Stay here." I spat out at Alex before running to the other room.

I opened and closed the door to one of the random guest rooms that was right off the kitchen locking it behind me. Across the room was Tobin who was pacing aggressively, back and forth in front of a hole in the wall. I looked around for what could have caused that and finally I saw her hand balled up in a fist and I could see droplets of blood falling from her knuckles.

"Tobin?" I whispered out quietly. She immediately stopped pacing and flipped around to face me.

"I can't believe this. I can't fucking believe this." She mumbled out angrily.

"Tobin, I don't understand what's wrong?"

"You don't understand what's wrong? You can't be fucking serious?" She said while stalking towards me. I back away from her until my back hit the door with a thud.

"Tobin please calm down." I whispered out scared. I have never seen Tobin like this. Furious. I think she realized in that moment just how afraid of her I was because she immediately stepped back away from me. But I could tell she was still just as angry as before, she just had a little more self control now.

"The girl you have been dating is Alex?" She asked me. I just nodded my head in confirmation. She nodded to herself, walking further away from me to kick the bed which slide across the room and hit the wall with a crack. "You should have told me it was her. Why didn't you tell me it was her?"

"Christen is everything okay?" Alex voiced asked through the door.

"Yeah sorry, I just need to take care of something really quick. Give me a minute and I will meet you okay in the kitchen."

"Okay." She responded. And I heard her footsteps back away from the door.

"I have to go to Alex before she gets more suspicious. Can we talk about this later?" I didn't wait for her answer as I moved to open the door.

"You shouldn't be with her. " Tobin said right before I walked out. 

"I don't think you have the right to tell me who to be with Tobin." I said with finality, frustrated that she thinks she can tell me who to be with as I walked back towards the kitchen.
