Prompt: Would it be too much to ask for a one-chapter AU in which the characters of your stories ended up with different characters? What if Theo ended up with Aleksandra?
A.N.- This was a longer prompt, and I didn't know if you meant to explain what would have happened or show what would have happened, so I just went with Theo/Alek because that was the easiest XD I can (and probably will) do the other parts of the prompts!

“Theo, do you want to come over?” Alek asked.
I sighed, because I didn’t want to see Dimitri. “I don’t know,” I said.
“Please? I really need some help with my economics homework,” she said with a frown. She looked around and lowered her voice. “I’ll keep him away from us.”
“Yea, I guess,” I said, rubbing the back of my neck.
She smiled. “Thank you!”
So after school, I went over to the Ivanov house. Alek led me inside and Galen came over, eyeing me.
“Theo,” he said.
“Come on Galen,” Mr. Ivanov said, grabbing the little boy’s hand and tugging him out of the room.
“Sorry about Galen,” Alek said, shaking her head and leading me up to her bedroom.
She opened her textbook and we sat down together. I helped her with the worksheet she had to do, patiently explaining everything until she understood it.
“Thank you,” she said when we were done. “God, you must think I’m an idiot.”
“Not at all,” I said with a smile. “Economics is really hard.”
Oh god. Why did I use the word hard?
I eyed Alek, taking in her beautiful appearance. She was wearing a shirt that hugged her just right, and shorts that were long enough that she didn’t look like a slut, but short enough that it left the mind to wander.
“Theo…” She bit her lip and moved forward slowly.
I pushed thoughts of Dimitri out of my mind and also moved forward, letting my lips meet hers. Our lips moved together slowly, in a gentle kiss.
Alek’s bedroom door opened and I heard a snicker. “Well, look at this. Little Theodore, are you kissing my sister?” Dimitri asked in amusement.
“Go away,” Alek said, glaring at him in hate.
“Little Theodore, come with me. I believe I need to talk to you,” Dimitri said, gesturing at me to come forward.
I looked between him and Alek. Alek looked angry and panicked. Dimitri looked smug, and there was a gleam in his eyes that finally made me realize why Alek hated him so much.
“No,” I said. “You’re just going to use me to hurt your sister, you selfish asshole.”
Dimitri chuckled. “Now would I do that to my wonderful older sister?”
“Yes,” Alek said flatly. “Yes, you would.”
“Go away. I’m done with you,” I said, glaring at him. “You’re an asshole.”
Dimitri smirked. “Well then. I can tell when I’m not wanted,” he said. He winked at me before leaving the room.
“No one has ever taken my side,” Alek mumbled.
“Alek…do you want to be my girlfriend?” I asked, because now I realized that Dimitri was just a selfish jerk, and Alek was the good person. She was the one I had true feelings for.
Her eyes widened. “Yes,” she said in shock. “Yes, of course.”
I smiled and leaned in, kissing her.

“He really did it again?” I asked in disgust as I sat on the couch with Alek. Her head was in my lap and I was twirling her hair around my fingers. We had been dating for two months.
Alek nodded, looking as disgusting as I felt. “Dimitri had sex with Kerry Hernandez three times in the past month, and now he’s dropped her and moved on to someone else.”
I helped her sit up and kissed her, smiling at her. “Hey, don’t even think about him, okay? You can’t control your little brother,” I said.
She smiled and leaned against me. I put my arms around her and kissed her again, glad I hadn’t made the mistake of getting with Dimitri.
