It Hurts! Ch.10

Texts:
Loren: We need to talk.
Alex: yeah I know.
Loren: downstairs. Come get me please.
Alex: on my way.
Alex's POV
I just got a text from Loren to come downstairs and get her. She said we needed to talk. Which we do. I want to know why she ran out on me. Why she acted like she hated me. It really upset me and now I feel like I'm not good enough. This is why I shouldn't get involved with girls in the more than friends kind of way anymore.
"Running downstairs to get Loren." I said talking to Aj.
He nodded as if he didn't care. I walked down the stairs and to the door.
"Hey. I'm so sorry about last night. I was having a really hard time. Some things went down and I'm about to explain them. " she said.
"Ok good. I have a lot of questions." We began to walk side by side.
She looked up at me and said,
"Just know that it wasn't you."
I nodded slightly.
We again up the stairs when she stopped me.
"Alex it's not you! Your perfect."
By then she was looking me straight in the eyes and I could tell she meant it. We were still standing on the stairs.
I looked at her for a little longer then hugged her.
We continued up the stairs. We walked down the hall and into his apartment.
Aj didn't look at Loren at all and she didn't look at him. I wondered what was going on but I planned to ask her.
She whisper to me so that Aj wouldn't hear her and said,
"Can we go somewhere a little more private?"
I nodded and took her hand to lead her down the hall. We walked into my room and sat on my bed.
"What happened yesterday? I was so confused." I said kinda upset.
"Well let's start from the beginning. When you took me to the roof all I wanted was to kiss you. And When you kissed me, I felt my whole body shake because I had never felt this way about anyone else in my life. I knew that I was falling hard for you." Her eyes filled with tears, " Alex you don't understand that I think I'm falling in love." A tear slowly ran down her face.
   We both stood up and I put my hand on her face wiping away the tear.
I slowly pulled her in kissing her. Only problem was that I was scared. Because I think I'm in love too. We sat back down.
"So why did you run out?" I asked.
"So when we came back down and you went in your room. Aj came out of his and was acting weird. I asked him what was wrong and he kept saying that he was fine. Then he stormed out and I followed. Once I caught up to him..."
she started getting really upset.
I grabbed her hands and said
"It's ok."
"Once I caught up to him. I grabbed his shoulder and he turned around and kissed me..."
"Oh my go-"
"I pulled away because all I could think about was you. I liked you. Not him. YOU. He stared at me for a second and then kept walking. I broke down and didn't know what to do. That's when u came out and helped me. And that's when I pushed u away... I'm sorry. " she said.
She stood up in front of me and said,
"I like YOU."
I kept staring at the wall in thought. She sat on my lap hugging me trying to make me feel better. She laid her head on my shoulder and I laid my head on her. Still staring in thought.
She kissed my cheek and said,
"I'm sorry."
She walked out of the room with her head down. She just wanted to give me time and space. Which I needed. But I was in disbelief that Aj would just kiss her out of the blue knowing that I like her. I mean I know he liked her to but we agreed that I could have her.
I just don't know what to do.
I laid back in my bed looking at the ceiling so I could think for a little bit.
Loren's POV
I walked home hoping mom was there. Because when she was I talked to her about everything. Guys. Friends. Fights. Everything. When I walked in the room she was on a phone call. She then turned around seeing me crying.
"Lee I gotta go. "
She hung up with the man and ran over to me. Snuggling me in a hug asking me what's wrong.
I explained to her everything that happened since I got here and what I just had to do. How I was heartbroken. Confused. And pretty sure in love.
"Ohh honey. It's ok. If he likes you enough he will come back!" She said.
We were sitting on the couch with me laying in her lap. She began playing with my hair.
"Mom does it always feel like this?"
"How does it feel?"
"Like someone staved me in the heart and ripped it out."
"Sounds about right..."
"It hurtsssss!!!!" I said.
I rolled over and started balling my eyes out.
"He will be back. "
"Ya think?" I said sitting up wiping my tears.
"I know."
"Thanks mom. "
She always knew how to make me feel better.
