Bonds Built (Completed)

1. They meet.

"Wait, so he just broke up with you?" Jessica nodded her head as she threw her phone down. "Talking about he has a lot going on and just needs some time to himself."

Alexis bit her lip in thought. "I mean you two have been going through it and all the stuff with his baby mama. It probably was all just too much for him." Jessica gave her an 'are you serious' look to which Alexis quickly threw her hands up. "I'm just saying Jess, you've even called me saying you were thinking about ending it."

Jessica smacked her teeth, "I was just talking. I was mad! I wasn't really going to end it. But he did. Like that's two years down the drain."

"You said he just said he needs some time to himself, which doesn't sound like the two of you are completely done." Jessica laid back on her bed, "sounds like a complete break up to me. We've never broken up no matter how bad the arguments were." Tears started falling that she couldn't control.

Alexis hated when people cried she sucked at consoling. "Jessica, stop! It's okay." She laid down beside her pulling her into her. "Stop it. This doesn't mean it's over, and if it is who cares, look at you! Any guy would be lucky to have you!"

And they would Jessica was beautiful on the inside and out. Standing at 5'6 with skin the color of Mahogany, pretty doe eyes that had a natural slant to them and full lips with naturally curly hair that hit past her shoulders her face alone would pull men in.

She wasn't exceptionally curvy but she had enough to make someone pay attention and once you got to know her anyone could see she had an heart of gold. She had her flaws, but everyone does.

Jessica just cried harder as Alexis sat holding her, she hated to see her friend like this. She thought for a second, she looked at the time on her phone, 8:34pm. "We're going out! You aren't going to sit and mop around. We're going to have some fun, we aren't going to even think or talk about Dwayne."

Jessica shook her head no as she wiped her face. She leaned up, getting off the bed to go get some tissue. "I'm not up for it Lex."

"Well I am and you need it." Alexis was definitely the one who partied between the two. Alexis was all for living life, she often didn't want to be tied down in a relationship and seeing her friends get their heartbroken pushed her even more to continue living how she was living. She just wanted to have fun! And that's exactly what she did. When she wanted sex, she got it. When she wanted male company, she got it. But it was all on her and that type of control she didn't want to let go of.

Jessica blew her nose before responding as she rolled her eyes. "You always are." Alexis walked to her Jessica's closet, "true and I hardly ever ask you to tag along because you're always booed up but you're not now, so we are going to have a night of fun and letting loose. And I will bug you about it while I pick out your outfit until you say yes." Alexis turned and looked at her with a smile.

And Jessica knew she would, Alexis was so used to having her way that she would do anything to get it. Jessica plopped back on her bed. "Alexis my boyfriend literally just broke up with me a week ago, can I have some time to cope?"

"Yeah, you had this whole week I've been gone and all of today. It's now turning into night time and we're going to drink the sorrows away." Jessica yelled in her pillow, knowing there was no getting out of this with Alexis. But maybe she was right, maybe she needed this to get her mind off it.

"That a girl, let it out. Cause we're going." Alexis laughed knowing she was the reason for Jessica's current frustration but she knew by the end of the night Jessica would be enjoying herself if she had anything to do with it.

Jessica leaned up, "you're a horrible friend. You know that?" Alexis crossed her arms as she stopped looking through her clothes to face her. "No, what would be a horrible friend is me leaving you to sulk when I have the power to get your mind off of it." She turned back around, "now get in the shower, we have a full night ahead of us."
