Secluded

Chapter 17

---------------Michael P.O.V------------------

I hold Alexis limp body gently as I unlock the door to her apartment, it took me a while as the alcohol is still in my system.. Thank god there was no paparazzi. I take her to the bathroom and sit her on the closed toilet seat.

"How you feeling?" I ask softly, looking through the cupboards for antiseptic and plasters.

"I don't know..." She mutters. My head kills, I quickly make 2 glasses of water and down one. Making me less dizzy and I sit another by Alexis.

I gently dab at her cuts with antiseptic, our faces almost touching. She stares at me, her eyes are so beautiful. She always says they are dull compared to everyone else's. But they make her who she is. And she is amazing.

--

"I'm so sorry." I mutter, this is all my fault.

"It's not your fault." She says, resting her hand against my cheek, making me look up.

"It is. If it wasn't for me you wouldn't have even been there."

"But you didn't ask me to come. It was my choice, you didn't know it was going to happen." She says reassuringly, I sigh. She rests her forehead against mine, and her minty breath fills the air. For a second I think she's about to kiss me, I don't know if I want her too. Obviously I do, I love her. But it will just make more hassle between us, and I don't want there to be. I glance at her lips, and remember how we used to be. I've never loved anyone like her before. All the memories of us come back, and I know I need to forget but sometimes it's hard to forget the good times. And it's hard to forget the one you love. And it's hard to watch them love someone else. Calum. She loves him, it's obvious. He likes her, it's obvious. And it kills me to know that, but it's her choice. However, I know there's still apart of her that loves me. And that will be there forever. And the same with me. I want to kiss her. But she's in love with someone else.

---------------Alexis P.O.V--------------------

I gently rest my forehead against his, his red hair tickles my head, his new eyebrow piercing scratching my eyebrow slightly.

Smile softly, and he rests his hands on the workbench either side of me.

For a minute I think he's about to kiss me, the way he looks down at my lips. His eyes glacé over, as he pinches his plump red lips together and looks down.

I think I want him too kiss me. Obviously I do, I miss it. I miss us. I'd do anything to be back with him, he was my world. He was there for me, when I was crying at 3am. He was there during all my good times, he made me smile genuinely. But what happened, happened. And it's hard to let go of the past. It really is.

You know it's difficult to watch the one you love, love someone else. I know he doesn't love those girls he cheated on me with, they were just random people he found in a club. Sometimes I'm thankful that it wasn't a long term cheat, that it was only a one night stand. Or maybe not even that.

But, it hurts to see the one you love kissing someone else right before your eyes. But there's still apart of me that loves him. There always will be, forever. I will never forget him.

I want to kiss him. But he doesn't love me the way he did before.
