hatred // chris schistad

twelve.

TIRSDAG.

alex walks into school, earphones in, looking down at her feet as she walks into school. it's her last week of school before school break. she is trying to convince her parents to go back to the united states for a week.

she looks up and sees chris standing with william looking at her. he smiles at her slightly, she quickly looks in front of her and continues walking.

'alex, wait.' says a voice as she hears footsteps come towards her.

'how are you?' he asks.

'i'm really good, you?' she asks.

'look chris, not to be rude but can we talk later? this isn't a good time and place right now. i just need some time alone to think. do you want to go to illegal burger at lunchtime?'

'alright sure, just text me when you're leaving.' he says before walking back to the penetrators.

alex walks into the school, down the corridor and up the stairs to her lockers. she sees isak and even talking to each other, they look at her making alex extremely comfortable.

'alex, we need to talk.' says a voice behind her as she puts her books in her locker.

'there's nothing to talk about.' she says her back to the person.

'yes there is, about what happened at the party. it was a mistake.' he says. alex slams her locker and faces her.

'no it wasn't a mistake, don't bullshit me jonas. don't come out with that "baby i was drunk and i didn't know what i was doing." because that shit doesn't work on me. a cheat is a cheat and he does not get my forgiveness.'

'what does that make us?' he asks quietly.

'that makes you, my ex boyfriend.' she says before turning around and walking off. leaving not only jonas in shock but also isak and even.

❁           ❁

'you came.' says chris with a smile.

'i didn't have much choice.' she says sighing as they walk inside.

'what's wrong?'

'for some reason the girls won't talk to me, i just get dirty looks from everyone, even isak and even are lowkey judging me. but the thing is though, i don't know why! i'm not in the wrong here, i wasn't the one who cheated, i just defended myself.' she says as they wait in line.

'if you want to help get your reputation right, i can get the penetrators to help you.'

'thanks for the offer but no thanks. i don't think getting the penetrators who already have a reputation of their own will help me much.'

'just offering.' he says with a shrug.

they order their food, after finally arguing who gets to pay, chris winning and they both go and sit down.

'i'm just thankful you're here for me chris. if i was alone, i would have lost my mind.'

ever since day one chris has always been there for alex, even if he has a funny way of showing it. chris has always been that one person alex has felt most comfortable with. she always told him what was her mind, something she couldn't even tell jonas when they were together. there's just something about him that makes alex trust chris with her life.

'i know this is a sensible subject and isn't the best time to bring it up but what's going to happen between you and jonas now?'

'nothing. i'm done with him. i do not forgive a cheater no matter what. if they truly loved you they would have never done it in the first place. so yes, there's no chance of me getting back together with him.' she says and chris face lights up but she doesn't notice.

'and he was my first boyfriend. i already had trust issues with people before and that just crossed the line. i don't think i'll be dating anyone for a long time.'

'even if someone truly cares about you and would do anything for you?' asks chris.

'i would have to meet that person first.' she says sighing.

chris goes to talk but is interrupted by the waiter bringing the food over.

'here's your order, two burgers, two drinks, a portion of fries and a side of onion rings. oh wait, i'm missing something.' he says.

'no that's all of our order.' says alex confused.

'i'm missing your number.' he says with a wink. chris clenches his jaw at the waiter.

'i'm a lesbian. i'm not interested in small dicks.' says alex making the waiter go red and quickly walk away.

'wow i'm impressed.' says chris laughing.'

'in the states, you have loads of creepy guys who ask for you number.'

'do you miss the united states?'

'extremely. especially my grandma, she was my best friend. i'm trying to talk to my parents to let me go back during school break but they can't as money is slightly tight from the move over here.'

'but i do like it here. i wasn't keen at first but i've learned to love oslo and it's lifestyle. even though norwegians and americans are two very different people.'

'and on the plus side, i've also met you.' she says with a smile.

i'm starting to get into writing this fanfiction again more but i've noticed my reads are going down since i take longer to update.
