That next week, it was the day before the Escape the Fate concert in Nashville. Alex was acting so fucking werid and it got me worried and to thinking. He'd randomly leave and come back a few hours later. He was gone at the moment and had been gone for a few hours already. I was fed up with it.

"Zoey. Lizzy is going to watch you for a few hours. Mommy has to talk to Daddy." I told her as I got her bag ready.

"Is daddy leaving?" She asked me.

I looked at Lizzy, then back at her, "I dont know for sure yet baby, but I will after we talk."

She had a sad look on her face and followed Lizzy out the door.

"Are you sure about this? You dont wanna us here?" Brandy asked.

I looked at her and Courtney, "I need to do this alone."

"You might not like what you find out." Vincent told me.

I glared at him, "Do you know something?"

Brandy glared at him as well.

Vincent flung his hands up, "I know nothing. But I do know Alex. And he cant stand with people get pissed at him for assuming stuff."

I rolled my eyes, "Go."

Brandy and Vincent went out the door. Courtney followed them, but JJ stopped.

"What?" I asked him.

He walked up to me and hugged me, "I worry about you sometimes."

I laughed, "I'll be fine."

"Its not you im worried about. Im worried what you'll do to him." He laughed as well.

I shook my head, "Get out of here."

He smiled, "But if you need me, or us at all. Call."

I nodded my head and waved at them as they drove off to go on their double lunch date.

I sat on the couch and waited for Alex to pull up.

Sure enough, about thirty minutes later, he pulled up and came threw the kitchen door. I stayed sitting on the couch.

"Wheres is everyone? Basement?" Alex said walking toward the bed room.

"Nope. They went out on a lunch date. Zoeys at Lizzys." I told him.

He came into the livingroom and stood in the doorway, "Why didnt you go with them?"

I looked at him funny, "And be a third wheele? No. They asked us to go, but you went off somewhere, not saying a word or answering your phone."

Alex rolled his eyes, "Whatever. Im taking a shower."

I rolled my eyes and looked him up and down as he, oddly, walked fast past me. I noticed something, I wasnt the least bit happy about either.

He came back out and I pointed at the couch on the other side of the room.

He gave me a glare then sat down.

"Were together right?" I asked him.

He nodded his head yes.

"You love Zoey right?" I also asked.

He looked at me funny, "of course. Why?"

"How come your acting strange?" I asked him.

He shook his head, "I'm not."

"Are to!" I yelled standing up.

"No I'm not." He said getting hateful.

I snatched his phone from his lap and started looking at his call log and messages.

"Give that back!" He yelled standing up.

I glared at him and walked to the other side of the room, searching for something. I didn't find anything in his messages, but he had called his ex. A few times.

"Here take it." I said throwing his phone and starting outside, "and by the way, your not watching Zoey tomorrow while I'm at the concert."

"Fucking hell you say." He said following me.

I stopped and looked at him, "Your not. Its a promise."

He shook his head, "Thats shit."

"Well, wanna tell me where you been when you randomly leave, then come back with hickies all over you!" I yeleld pointing at his next, "Those sure arent from me."

Alex grabbbed his neck, "Thats not what they are."

I shook my head, "Yea, what else are they then huh?  I thought you said you were gunna change for Zoey. Leave your ex."

"I am! Damn it. I did leave her." He said angery.

"Then why is she here! Why is she looking for you. And I know good and well, you've been out to see her when you randomly leave. Dont you dare lie to me either." I said getting upset.

Alex shook his head, "Yea. I have been seeing her. Are you happy? But I wasnt cheating. I swear."

"Lair! Your a fucking lair!" I yelled shoving him, tears pouring out of my eyes.

Alex looked at me like he was hurt and angery.

"Your fucking staying in the godamn basment with Vincent and Brandy." I yelled threw tears.

Alex threw his phone on the ground and went back into the house.

I crossed my arms and sat at the edge of the street, waiting for Courtney and Brandy to get back, but Lizzy rushed out of her house and over to me.

"Cyndy, are you okay?" She asked me.

I looked at her and shook my head no, "Alex is a fucking ass."

"But you love him. Yelling and screaming wont fix anything. You got to work it out." She told me.

I stood up and shook my head no, "Im gunna fucking go nuts tomorrow night. Im gunna get wasted tomorrow."

"Cyndy." Lizzy said sounding worried.

I shook my head, "Nope. I've done decided."

Lizzy shook her head, "Who are you going to have watch Zoey now?"

"Is Nick leaving tomorrow?" I asked her.

Lizzy shook her head no, "Hes watching Candace. He can watch Zoey too if you'd like."

"That would be great." I said smiling.

Just then, Brandy and Courtney pulled up with JJ and Vincent.

"What happened?" JJ asked, noticing I had been crying.

I hugged him with a laughed, "Nothing. Nothing at all."
