Hell on Heels

Apologies

*Alexis POV*

I marched to my car and unlocked it. I hastily got in and revved the engine but before I could pull out of the police station's parking, Regan came jogging to the car and knocked on the window. I groaned and rolled it down halfway with a questioning look. "What do you want? Those guys are arrested and charged." He hesitated and then swallowed. "Alexis.. I really regret it, I made a mistake, I'm sorry" I exhaled in annoyance. "Exactly which mistake are we talking about?" He ignored my remark and continued. "I was just pissed off. I didn't mean to cause a fight between you and Kiara" I shot him a sceptical look. "If you didn't mean to 'Cause a fight' then why did you do it?" I tapped the steering wheel and gave him a pointed look as he bit his lip. He shook his head and looked away. "I-I was jealous" "What? Jealous of my rainbow filled past?" I scoffed. "No of you-you and Aiden. Since you two are, you know, together."

I blew a strand of my not-so-neatly cut hair, out of my face and glared at him. "What the actual fuck Regan?! Well, I'm sorry I can't be your sex buddy anymore since I've got a boyfriend who I actually really like. Oh wait, I never mind, you ruined that for me!" I jerked the car forward and sped off, hoping I had run over the douche bag's toes.

One. Breathe. Two. Breathe. Three. Fucking Breathe. I pressed the doorbell to Aiden's house and hurriedly tucked my loose hair behind my ears and fiddled with the ends of my denim jacket. "Alexis?" Aiden opened the door. "Hi" I awkwardly tapped my foot and stared at the floor. "Um, come in I guess?" He held the door open and I silently slipped inside. Whatever confidence I had half an hour ago, just drained away and I felt like putty. We stood awkwardly for a minute before Aiden sighed "Is there something you need? I think you left your mascara here the other day. Do you need it?" I cleared my throat, but my voice still came out croaky like a frog. "I'm sorry." He folded his arms, relief shown on his face but he waited for me to go on. I cleared my throat again, feeling stronger as I looked into his intense eyes. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I didn't come off clean with you and tell you that I was sleeping with Regan. I totally understand if you think I'm just a fucking slut right now but I need you to know that there were absolutely no feelings involved. I did what I did with him because I was a bloody coward who couldn't find the courage to tell my sister the truth, even though she had every right know. I did it because I was scared. And I shouldn't have. And it's alright if you hate me now but, I just need you to know that I love you Aiden West. I love you so much it hurts me. It hurts my chest so much I can barely get these words out" I never broke his gaze. Even as he came closer and caressed my right hand and cupped my chin in the other. "I don't think you're a slut, you are anything but that do you understand?" He whispered seriously and I nodded meekly, turning back to putty. "And more over, I do NOT hate you. Not when I'm in love with you so much that any thoughts of hating you seem like the most impossible thing on earth"

I didn't trust myself to speak or let out another word escape my glossy lips. So I kissed him. Harder than I ever did, my emotions spilling all over the place, but he was there with me to help me pick it all up.

I drained my latte and dusted myself off. Kiara was watching TV and filing her nails while Tzara neatly trimmed my hair and made my rough cut into a neat and even perfection. "Done. Now don't EVER do something so rash again. Especially not before Prom night!" She tossed the scissors on my table and gave me a mock stern look. I shrugged and stroked my hair a little as I observed my makeup free self in the mirror. "Hey, I just needed a change y'know?" "In that case you should've just come to me. You know how much I loved your long hair" Tzara pouted and slung her purse over her shoulders, ready to leave. "Well frankly, I like your new look, Lexi. Makes you look a lil' less like the hellish queen everyone says you are" Kiara piped up from the couch. I smiled sweetly and applied a fresh coat of black nail polish before lighting a cigarette"Oh don't worry, I'm still hell's biggest bitch"
