Falling- Shawn Mendes

Chapter twenty six

A week later

Alex's pov

I was walking through the halls and I heard videos that people were playing and I heard moaning. Who's video got leaked? I'd hate to be them. That sucks. I opened my locker and a paper fell out. I picked it up off the ground and I see my body and recognize Shawn's bracelet that he wears. I gasped and looked around. "Shawn.." I hear and I turned around and saw people were looking at me. I snatched a phone from a random person and watched the video. I gasped as I realized it was the one from a week ago before we left to pick up Aaliyah. I slammed my locker shut and handed the person back their phone. Brie sees me and comes running. "Did you see this?!" She said equally pissed as me, if not, more. I nod and tear up because I'm pissed. "Where.. is.. he." I gritted through my teeth.

She nods in my direction and I turned around and see him walking with Matt and Brian. He waved hi to us. I took my book bag off and hand it to brie. "You know what you gotta do." She said "yep." I said and tied up my hair into a ponytail. I walked toward him "you Alright? You look a little-" He said before I cut him off by punching him in the face with all my force causing him to fall back. "How could you! Fuck you!" I yelled with tears streaming down my face. Matt held me back. "Don't touch me!" I yelled pushing him off. "Fuck you Shawn! How could you do that to me! You're an asshole!" I yelled "Alex, that's enough." Matt said "no fuck you!" I said kicking him in the stomach. "Alright. Alright. Alright!" Brie said stepping in between us. "Brie. Move. I'm not done." "No. You're going too far now." She said

She turned around and looked at Shawn and kicked him in the stomach. "Sorry, but you're a jerk for what you did." "What did I do?" He said "the video!" I yelled and his face went pale. "Oh." He said and I scoffed "that's all you have to say? Oh?" I said and he didn't look at me. "You're an asshole. Don't talk to me, don't call me, don't even look at me." I said grabbing my bag from Brie. "Alex, I can explain." He blurted out "explain what? You recorded me without me knowing? Was it some sort of bet?" I said and he stayed quiet "oh my god." I said "it was, wasn't it?" I said tearing up again but not out of anger, out of hurt. "Was it with you guys?" I said looking at Matt and Brian "god no." They said and I laughed. "Oh my god." I said "come on, let's just go." Brie said as there was a crowd around us. I started walking away and I turned around and kicked him in the stomach again and walked through the crowd with Brie. I heard everyone go "OH!"

I ran into the girls bathroom with Brie and I punched the wall with tears streaming down my face. "Calm down." She said "calm down? Calm down? You want me to calm down?!" I yelled and there were girls in the bathroom looking at me "what!" I yelled at them and they ran out. "Oooo, I'ma make life a living hell for him." I said pacing back and forth. "He's a dick. I can't believe he did that to you." She said and I shook my head. "God, I look like such an idiot." I said looking at myself in the mirror. "I just can't believe he would do this. He told me he loves me, you don't do this to someone you love." I said wiping my tears away. She pulled me in for a hug and I cried on her shoulders. "Alex.." I heard his voice and I look up. "Get away from her. Don't You see the pain you caused her!" Brie said "please, let me explain." "I don't need an explanation. What I need; is to get away from you." I said walking past him and he grabs my wrist "let me go." I said "no, I- I wanna talk about this." He said "let me go Shawn." I said getting mad again. "No!" "You have five seconds to let me go Shawn. I'm getting mad and trust me, I will do way worse than what I did out in the hall." I said "let's talk about this and I'll let you go." "Shawn just let her go! She's already upset! You're making it worse!" Brie said "No! I don't want to lose you. You're the best thing that happened to me. Babe-" "don't call me babe." I said "you know what happened. You're the only ray of sunshine in my life. You light up my days, you know I need you." His voice cracked
