Star-Crossed

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX.

Saturday night...

ALEXANDER

While I was driving to Sky's house, my legs and hands were shaking because of my nervousness.

There was a storm in the sky, but I was praying to whatever god out there that the storm didn't match how Sky was feeling.

It's been complete hell for me the past two days. Sky wasn't answering my calls or my texts, and I couldn't just fucking drive to her house because I was in a whole other state.

I spent two hours looking for Sky that day, only to find out she had left. All of her shit was gone, and she didn't even say goodbye to me.

Then fucking Justin told me he saw her running in the cafeteria hallway in tears, and it only took me seconds to figure out what happened.

She heard what I said about her to the guys on the basketball team.

I knew it crushed her.

Shit, I would've been crushed too if I heard her talking like that about me after the night we had.

I didn't mean a word of what I said about her, I said them because I didn't want anyone to touch her except for me.

I knew what kind of guys they were from being with them all these years, and I didn't want one of them to try anything with my Sky. God, if they ever tried to lay a hand on her, I would go to jail.

The night I spent with her was amazing, and she hasn't had sex before me, but I had to lie to her in order to keep guys away. It was like a game to them, to go after the girls I went after to see who they'd choose next. Sky wasn't some part of their game, so I said those stuff because it would make them back the hell up, and not try anything with my Sky.

The things I said were fucked up, I know, but I just wanted her all to myself. It was selfish for me not to let anyone else see that beauty in her, but I didn't give a fuck. I didn't want any other boy at fucking Summerside to be near, touch, be friends, or talk to Sky.

If talking shit about her was what I had to do, then so be it.

I parked right outside of her house near her windows where she could see me. Shooting her a text that I was here didn't do anything either.

The idea of ringing the doorbell and possibly coming across her parents was definitely out of the picture.

Her parents knew me from my mother, so they wouldn't want me going up to their precious daughter's bedroom.

Her house was huge, but on the second floor instead of the third, so I got out of my car to climb to her window.

I immediately became drenched because of how hard it was raining outside. Her small window was at the front of the house, but thankfully, the living room blinds were closed so nobody could catch me climbing up.

Thanks to my tall height and jumping skill, I jumped high and latched on to the gutter before climbing on top of the house.

Her window was closed and I couldn't see much of anything inside, but my sometimes perverted mind was wishing I would've caught her doing something I shouldn't see.

I slid the window open and got in quickly before closing it again.

Whew, good job Alex!

"What are you doing here?!" Sky exclaimed from behind me, and I turned around to see her walking into the room with snacks in her arms.

She closed the door behind her and lowered her voice. "What are you doing here?"

"I came to talk to you." I told her. She walked up to her bed and placed her chocolates, chips, and candy on it before walked up to me with her arms crossed.
