The Bad Part About Loving Her

Chapter 38

Alex was in bed now,  she was on Face Time with Carter.

"So I leave and yo ass start fighting? I swear you only know how to act when I'm around".  Carter shook his head.

Alex was quiet.

"So you ain't got shit to say?".  Carter was stone faced.

"What do you want me to say?".  Alex felt really guilty now.

"I don't know.  You supposed to live like you a wife,  a Mother first.  I don't want to look on my explore page and see you fighting.  A bitch can run her mouth all day,  but if you beat her ass each time you just causing extra stress on you.  Next time just ignore her.  Don't do all that hood bitch shit.  You coulda went to club had fun but where yo ass at? Home".  He lectured.

"Are you mad?".  Alex was curious.

"Hell yeah! You supposed to be holdin it down while I'm gone but instead you running around knocking bitches out.  That's not the Alex I left".  He yelled.

"Stop yelling at me".  Alex hated this.

"Yo just get it to fucking gether. That shit not cool Alex. You think I like that shit?!".  He yelled even louder.

She was silent.

"Fuck it bruh. Good night".  He hung up.

Alex stared at the phone for a while.

"Is he mad?".  Jordan came into the room.

"Yep. I got yelled at and hung up on". She sighed.

"Just give him some time".  Jordan hugged Alex.

"I guess my days of whooping bitches is over".  Alex sighed.

Jordan laughed.

"I guess so".  Jordan shrugged.

"What did Nick say?".  Alex looked hopeful.

"He said I had a right considering she swung at me".  Jordan nodded.

Alex didn't like when Carter was mad at her.

She tried going to bed after Kayden went to sleep and Jordan and Nick went home. But her mind kept replaying what Carter said to her last.

Fuck it bruh.  Good night.

Alex tossed and turned for the last time. She sat up straight and grabbed her phone.  She had three missed calls from Carter.

"What the hell?".  She whispered to herself.

She called him and he picked up on the first ring.

"Alex?!".  He sounded urgent.

"Yeah? What happened?".  She was starting to freak out.

"We're getting on another plane but, I just can't seem to calm down knowing that I yelled at you.  I'm sorry.  It's just seeing you like that,  fucks my mind up.  I don't ever want to see you like that OK?".  His voice was filled with seriousness now.

"Yeah".  Was all Alex could say because she was trying to keep from crying.

"Alright. I love you Alex".  He sighed.

"I love you too".  She wiped her eyes.

"OK, I gotta go,  but I'll see you for Christmas.  I love you bae".  He sounded calm now.

"I love you too".  Alex smiled a small smile.

She hung up and laid back down.  She fell asleep immediately.
