Guys, we hit #43 in Romance! dhodsow,
i really just want to hug you all so bad right now. >.<Taylor Hill as Elizabeth Hemsworth
Alison's POV.
The unease that hung in the air, the next day, was simply unexplainable. Luke too had rocked up at work, which meant that I would eventually have to face him after weeks of hiding from the man that had created such doubt in myself that I wasn't even sure whether I was even worth anything.
I knew that I should've fought for our friendship but a part of me was furious. Absolutely livid that Luke thought he had the right to rip me off my main supply of happiness. I knew I was being selfish, but I didn't have the human in me to care. I was absolutely gloomy the past few weeks and I was hating it.
At the moment, I had just collected some cash from the ATM machine down the street and I was making my way, quite sulkily may I add, to the large building, a wooden board at the top that said Madame André , in curly, emerald letters.
A heavy, imappsive sigh left my lips and it seemed as if my legs was strapped to large boulders that were preventing me from moving anywhere. However, I had to get to work on time and I currently had seven minutes until I had arrived and pulled on my uniform. With another disgruntled sigh, I pushed past the revolving doors and opened the staff door.
"Awww fuck."a female voice cursed.
A girl, maybe in her mid-twenties was rubbing her forehead, her eyebrows furrowed in pain. She was about the same height as I was, with long brown locks and hazel eyes. She was gorgeous, and I suddenly felt extremely self-conscious as I stood beside her.
"I'm so sorry."I gushed, rubbing my forehead as well to disperse the throb that had begun to form.
She cursed again, shaking her head,"Fucking God, what the fuck is your forehead made out of? Thor's hammer?"
I laughed, a wide smile painting my lips. She was amusing, I had to give her that.
"I'm really sorry."I apologised, feeling genuinely concerned for the girl, I added,"How can I make it up to you?"
A smirk began to tug at her lips and a sense of dread began to form at the pit of my stomach,"What about lunch, I am starving anyway?"
I nodded, agreeing with the idea,"Fair enough."
She smiled, her eyes travelling down my body as she took me in. Her eyes suddenly widened and she stumbled backwards in disbelief.
"You're Blake Ryder's ex-wife!"
A surge of irritation prickled at my skin and I frowned, but either way nodded stiffly, affirming her thoughts.
"It's shocking that you were his wife."
I had always been told that I hadn't deserved Blake. He was too good. But that was wrong. He didn't deserve me. I had just foolishly remained with him, hoping that he would show any spark of interest. My pathetic past was so stupid and naive to the actual world around her that she had eventually allowed it to crumble down her walls. But not this time. Not ever.
"Listen here bitch, I don't give a fuck if you - "
The girl laughed loudly, cutting me off,"Dude, I was implying that someone like so gorgeous ended up with such a insolent jerk. You seem like a pretty legit girl, shame that you fell into his trap."
I chuckled sheepishly, feeling very stupid for blowing out on her.
"It was an arranged marriage."I added, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear and smiling kindly her.
For some strange reason she seemed to be giving off a reliable vibe, and I wanted to blurt out all my secrets to her, however I knew better than to do so.
A shade of comprehension passed her expression, and she nodded,"Oh."
A comfortable silence lingered in the air as we simply stood, smiling at one another. If someone had walked into us they would've found the situation very strange indeed.
She shot me a toothy smile, sticking out her hand,"Elizabeth..uh...Hemsworth."
I ignored the sense of unfamiliarity that lined her words as she uttered her name. But she couldn't simply forget her name, could she?
"As in Chris Hemsworth?"I joked, raising an eyebrow.
A flicker of fear flashed past her admirable features as if I had uncovered a secret that she had tried to keep unearthed for so long.
"Uh, yeah."she said, a tinge of panic in her tone as she covered it up with her gloat,"That's right, my dad's Chris Hemsworth. Still has the amazing looks, I tell you."
I laughed, silently agreeing. Chris Hemsworth surely did have remarkable looks. I had fawned over his appearance many times when binging on an Avengers movie.
"But my forehead's got his hammer in it though."I winked.
She snickered,"Not sure if you're worthy of even touching that thing."
"Hey!"
"Just stating the truth."
I shook my head in amusement, a wide smile gracing my lips.
"Alison Williams."I grinned, braving her dropped hand and forcing her into a handshake.
And as we walked out the staff room, discussing Blake's arrogance, a part of me stirred. I knew that I had made a friend.
A friend who would hopefully staying with me for years on end.
__________________________________________________________
The hate that Elizabeth held for Blake was unbelievable, and for a moment I believed that she resented the man more than I did but had quickly smothered the thought down after recalling a nasty memory that consisted him. I hadn't told Elizabeth of the deep details of our nasty relationship. I wasn't sure if I should trust her yet. However after the quite entertaining lunch that we had, I had taken immense liking to her.
Luke had made sure to avoid me completely, not that I minded. I was partly mad at him and I didn't have the courage to face him.
"Is he your ex or something?"Elizabeth asked, her face contorted into disgust at the thought.
I shook my head, tearing my gaze from Luke,"Huh? What, no!"
She threw her hands up in mock surrender, shrugging.
"It looks like you have something for the guy."
I ignored her, referring to her prior comment,"More like ex- best friend."
She nodded in understanding, looping her arm through mine,"What did he do?"
"Just left me. No reason whatsoever."
Again she nodded, bitting her lip in thought. She nudged me lightly, offering me a comforting smile.
"Don't worry babe, you got me."
I smiled widely, bumping my hip against hers,"Damn right I do."
