"Is it true Leila, do you still care?" Alex asks softly. I can tell he has tears running down his face. With every word, his voice broke more and more, which hurt to hear. I am the cause of this. Alex has licked himself in there because of me, and I hate being the cause of it.
"Of course I still care. Damnit Alex, I still love you." I admit to him. I too find myself crying at the thought of losing him. I didn't know what was happening behind that door, for all I know Alex could be dying. Why does this have to happen? I just want him to unlock the door and let me in. I want to hug him and make sure he's ok.
"Alex let me in." I respond with a firmer tone this time. I hoped that the firmer tone would persuade him to open the door for me. Surprisingly, I heard Alex get up from his spot on the floor and walk over to the door. I could tell that he was debating on weather or not to open the door, because it didn't open at first. As soon as he unlocked it, he opened the door just enough for me to squeeze through. I squeezed myself through the small opening. Knowing that I was with Alex and he was safe, his mom left to give us some time to talk.
"You scared me so much!" I yell at Alex while pulling him into a hug. "Don't ever do that again." I respond with tears falling down my cheeks. I was so happy that he was ok.
"I- Is it true, do you still love me?" Alex stuttered in my ear while pulling me tighter into the hug, while wiping the tears from my face. Being with Alex felt comforting.
"Of course I do, I wouldn't lie to you." I say while pulling away from the hug. Lots of questions ran through my head, but I I ask one, I'm pretty sure it will answer all of them.
"Why did you lock yourself in here?" I ask Alex with a genuine voice. He really worried me, so I want to know why I was worrying.
"I needed time by myself, to think, so I locked the door so nobody could get in." He says.
"Think about what?" I ask.
"You, and how I'm planning on getting over you." He says with a frown forming on his face. "I can't get you off my mind, this isn't fair. You moved on just fine, why am I still stuck to you? I just wanna be with you." He says sighing.
I thought about all the good times I had with Alex. The night of the homecoming parade when Alex comforted me while on the field, the night Alex helped me move into my new house, it felt like home with him there, or the night he met Luna. Luna loves Alex so much.
"I miss you Leila. I really, really miss you." Alex says genuinely.
"I really miss you too." I reply.
"Then why did we break up?" Alex asks me while sitting back down in the floor.
"I was scared of what could of happened instead of focusing on what would have happened." I reply sadly. I really started to regret breaking up with Alex. I miss him so much, I thought I would be able to get over him, so why can't I? I thought that Gio would be my escape from Alex, but he just brought us closer together.
"Leila, be my girlfriend again." Alex says reading my facial expressions. As soon as Alex asked me to be his girlfriend again, I thought about Gio. Do I break up with him or get back together with Alex. I'm torn between two people I love, and it's the worst feeling ever.
