Their Secret

Aftermath

Ashton's POV

I try to sleep but I end up tossing and turning. I decide to get out of bed and go to the kitchen to get something to drink and to watch some TV. I hear Rita coming downstairs in nothing but her underwear. What she doesn't get is that I am over her I am in love with Alex and she will never be half the woman Alex is.

"Can't sleep?" Rita asks sitting next to me.

"Yeah" I say shortly.

"You know you shouldn't worry too much about Alex" she says eyeing Alex's ring which is currently in my hand.

"Alex is everything to me Rita and I will worry about her. You should probably get dressed" I say flatly.

"Don't lie to yourself Ashton if you cared about Alex you wouldn't have kissed me" she says seriously.

"The kiss ment nothing. You are nothing to me besides the mother of my son" I say coldly.

"Sooner or later you are going to accept the feelings you have for me Ashton" she says smiling.

"I don't feel anything for you. I love Alexendra" I say getting up and going upstairs. I let Alex down. I wasn't there when she needed me. I don't think I will ever forgive myself for that.

Alex's POV

I hear a knock on the door and I decide to ignore it. I don't want  whoever is knocking to see me in this state. I mean my eyes are all swollen and I am in my pyjamas in the middle of the day. The past two days have been tough. Well at least my mom is doing ok. She has been out of hospital for the past two days. She couldn't be happier to hear that Ashton and I are no longer together. I realise that the knocking has gotten louder so I am forced to go and open the door.

"Greyson what are you doing here?" I ask wiping tears away from my face.

"You haven't been answering my calls so I had to come and check up on you" he says holding my chin.

"I'm fine" I say shortly and move away from his grip.

"You are not fine" he says analysing me.

"Look Greyson I am fine, I just want to be alone" I say moving away from him.

"Well I'm not going anywhere until I see a smile on that face" he says sitting down on the couch. After a few hours of movie watching and snack eating we hear a knock on the door. Greyson goes to get it and comes back with a neat envelope and gives it to me. I take it and open it to reveal a neatly written letter.

Dear Alexendra

It's been two years ever since I last saw you. I must say you are quite a fighter Angelo I really thought you would be dead by now. So tell me, how is your baby doing? I bet he or she is as healthy as his or her mother. Well enough with the small talk.

I wanted to tell you that I have a secret that I think Ashton would like to know. So if you are interested in helping your boyfriend. You can come to this address. I hope to see you Angelo.

My breathing starts getting fast and everything goes black.

"Alex...Alexendra" Greyson says over me.

"I'm fine" I say trying to sit up.

"Take it easy" he says gently pushing me down.

"I said I am fine" I say sitting up.

"You lost blood flow to your brain, you must lie down to get your blood circulation normal again" he says seriously.

"Ok, Greyson but I assure you I am fine" I say smiling.

"I'll be the judge of that" he says taking my left hand.

"Oh, so you are the judge now?"I ask smirking.

"Yes, I am a doctor" he says triumphantly. I lost this battle.

"Oh, you Parker men are full of mysteries" I say smiling. I never realised how intense how Greyson's eyes are.

"There's still a lot you don't know about us" he says caressing my cheek with his thumb.

"Well I guess you will have to teach me" I say slowly. With that Greyson and I kiss. He starts moving his hand from my cheek to the top button of my top and starts gently planting kisses on my neck.

"What the fuck are you doing!" Ashton says angrily. With that my body becomes tense.

"Get your hands off her!" He demands. Greyson quickly stands up and Ashton lands a punch squarely across Greyson's face. Greyson fires back with another punch and everything turns into world war three within seconds.

"Guys stop please" I say getting in between them. They finally listen to my plea.

"Uh Greyson, I think you should leave" I say not making eye contact with any of them. Greyson takes his jacket and leaves and I am left with a seething Ashton.

"What the hell was that!" He growls. Immediately scaring me out of my skin.

"I don't know" I say running a hand through my hair.

"Well, how long has this been going on?" He asks angrily.

"It was just that one kiss nothing is going on" I say sitting down.

"Are you lying to me?" He rumbles.

"No, I am not lying to you Ashton" I say shakily.

"I think need some air" he says taking his car keys.

"Ashton I am sorry" I say holding his arm as he passes me. His cold grey eyes pierce mine as he removes my arm from his. This has got to be the coldest Ashton has ever been to me but I guess I deserve it.

"Ashton please say something" I say following him to the door.

"Ok fine you don't have to talk to me just please don't drive. I will leave you alone, please don't drive in this state" I say clinging onto his arm. Again he just removes my hand from his arm and simply exits the house. I get a call from Greyson but I choose to ignore it. What was I thinking? I go upstairs and take a shower. When I am done I slip into some jeans, a tank top and some nike sneakers. I go into Ashton's study and manage to get the key for his desk drawers. I open the last drawer from the opulent antique desk and take out a gun. I then go downstairs and take my keys and start my way to the other side of town.
