Arabella Blossom ❥ Arctic Monkeys and The Strokes

Chapter 19

Arabella's POV:

We walked into the same music store I was in before, browsing the instruments and albums. I picked up a Fender Bronco Bass and grinned at Alex, he nodded in approval. We got 2 pairs of drumsticks for Matt, some guitar picks for Jamie and some CD's for each of them. We then walked into the main area and shopped for our parents. We just bought clothes, etc. After that, we walked home and went to Jamie's apartment. Kelly's baby bump has grown so much.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"ALEX P-PLEASE S-STOP!" I say, he tickles me. He flips me over and i'm on top of him, staring into his eyes. I give him a harsh slap and run away, giggling like a child.

"You're gonna get it missy!" He yells, running after me. I swing open the fridge, grabbing a can of Dandelion & Burdock and putting it infront of me.

"You know me too well" He says, coming to a halt and opening the can, taking a sip. He raises his eyebrows at me, handing me the drink. I took a sip, handing it back to him. He put it on the beautiful marble counter, walking over to me and wrapping me in his embrace, looking down at me. He smiles as I rest my head on his shoulder, feeling his warm arms wrapped around me.

"I love you" He says, resting his head on my shoulder.

"I love you too" I say.

1 DAY LATER

"Just fucking go!" I yell as he leaves the beautiful apartment.

What have I done?

{a couple minutes earlier}

I read the text from my mum.

Sweetie, today we had a clean up truck come and we emptied out your spare room and accidentally threw in your book of poems. So sorry honey, hope to see u soon xx

I started balling my eyes out and Alex runs over to me, wrapping his arms around me.

"What's wrong babe?"

"Nothing it's just..." I didn't finish my sentence.

"C'mon I know summat's up! Please tell me" He pleaded.

"No just... go.... I need some time to myself."

"I want to help you love, please tell me"

"I told you I just want some bloody space to think"

"You sure?"

"Just fucking go!" I yell as he walks off.

{present time}

I feel really bad. 

I want to go back but it's 2 in the morning, he's probably gone to one of the boys apartments anyway. I'll apologise in the morning and hopefully he'll forgive me. For now,

I'm shattered.

I'm going to bed.

{next morning}

I woke up at about 5am and jolted out of bed, running over to the balcony and walking out, seeing Alex fast asleep in his car. A tear flew out of my eye, so I got dressed, putting on my red flannel shirt and my black leggings, running out of the door. I opened the car door, awkwardly sitting in the passenger seat. He woke up about a minute later, saying

"Morning love"

In his raspy morning voice. I looked over at him and gave him a tight hug.

"I'm so sorry Alex.... I love you"
