           -Alice Brown's POV-

After Angel and I finished our hug and went to class, I thought of what to say to Alexander. I was still pissed and wanted to avoid him, but I had to stick to the plan.

Angel said that she would wait outside until he came to see if he did anything before school officially started since she didn't have first period. She also said that she was going to text me when she found anything out and may also take some pictures.

I love her so much! I'm glad I have a friend like her. But I gotta find a way to pay her back. I'll think of something later.

I sit in class as the teacher lectures about history and wars and blah blah blah.

Ugh, I hate history.

Damien said that he couldn't make it to school today. He had a terrible fever and his mother had to stay home with him to make sure he was ok. They were supposed to go to the doctor at 2pm. I really hope he's ok though.

I finally feel my phone vibrate in my back pocket. I look at it and see a text from Angel:

Angel: Look what I founddddd!

After she had sent a picture. She acted as if to take a selfie, which looked really cute, and got 2 people making out in the background. They looked like..

OH MY GOD!

It was Alexander and a girl making out. I think her name is Sasha. She's quiet popular, but I've never talked to her before. Never really cared for her either. I text Angel back:

Alice: That's Alexander and Sasha, right?

Angel: Yeah! I never knew he had a girlfriend.

Alice: Me neither.

Angel: You should ask him about it when you see him next period.

Alice: Ok! Roger that!

Angel: Take this serious! We are on a spy mission!

Alice: Doesn't sound like you're taking this serious.

Angel: Oh please! Go do your work!

Alice: Lol. Ok.

A while later the bell rang.

"Don't forget to read pages 256 and 257 of your textbook for homework!" My history teacher calls out. We all mutter an ok.

I go to my locker to get my things for my next class and then go. I go to my seat and wait for Alexander to come and sit beside me. And as I expected, that's what he does when he comes in.

He looks a little deep in thought.

Probably thinking of another lie to give me.

I poke him with my pencil. He doesn't move. I poke him harder and he blinks rapidly and looks toward me. His face seems to brighten knowing that I've chosen to talk to him.

"So.." I start. "Are you ready to tell me the truth."

He looks down and takes a deep breath.

"Yes.. But when we get home. I can't say it here.."

"Ok." I say and don't talk to him anymore.

At least he's chosen to tell the truth. I hope..

I text Angel about it, making sure that Alexander can't see. It wouldn't matter if I put it in front of his face, he wouldn't even notice cause he's so deep in thought.

I wonder what's going on in that ignorant head of his. Probably nothing good.

After School

I waited for Alexander at the tree where I normally wait. No matter how mad I am at him, I can't break our tradition.

Angel has sent me nothing new, just more stuff about them kissing and acting as a couple throughout the school day.

How could I have not noticed that he had a girlfriend?!

All of a sudden I hear, "ALICE! ALICE! ALICE!"

I look up to see Angel running towards me. She looks uncomfortable and a little tensed.

"I just heard Alexander's conversation with Sasha. He told her that he was going to tell you everything. About Sasha being his girlfriend, about what he does, and about what happened that day."

I look at her, wanting more information.

"What does he do and what happened that day?"

"He.. He smokes." She said softly.

That's the reason she looks really uncomfortable. She hates smoking. It only makes things worse. Plus it is killing you slowly. She's lost at least 3 people to smoking and she despises it the most. She prays everyday to God, begging him to help people get out of the addiction.

I look at her.

"I'm ok." She says. "I knew you were gonna ask."

"Well you knew correctly. But anything else?"

She nodded her head. "Apparently, that day he was having sex with Sasha on the grass near the school. He didn't want to tell you because he didn't want to ruin your mind. He also didn't know how you would think of him afterwards."

There's a pause before I say anything so I could process what I just heard.

"Oh wow.." is the only thing I could say in response to that.

I'm probably going to be apologizing in every chpater because I'm late. I'm sooooo sorry. Oof, I have problems. I'm a big procrastinator and I have a lot of things to do.

But, I hope y'all are having a lovely day and enjoyed this chapter. Love y'all! 👋🏽💖
