Can't stop loving you (Waterloo road)

06🤎

Alexis woke up in bed next to Tom and sighed to herself. Her head was a mess and she had no idea what she was going to do. She was in bed again with Tom and was back to lying to max over it. She sent max a text and sighed as she looked to tom as he sat up "regrets?" Tom asked as Alexis sighed "I don't Know all I can think over is how I am lying and I don't know how much longer I can do it for" she said as Tom looked to her and smiled "what are you saying?" He asked as she sighed "I don't know. I love you Tom but I love max and he is good with Gracie and I can't just end it yet. I need time" she said as Tom looked to her and smiled as he placed a hand on her cheek and smiled as he leant in and kissed her

"Take as much time as you need" he said as she looked to him and nodded. She heard Gracie cry and sighed as she stood up and slipped on tops shirt. She looked to him and smiled as she walked to gracies room and picked her up and smiled "hoes my beautiful girl" Alexis said as Gracie babbled away. Alexis sighed to herself knowing that she needed to end it with max. She knew he was cheating on her and worried it was with Esme. Alexis knew Gracie adopted max and to y it wasn't going to be easy. She didn't want to get into this mess but it just happened and she only hoped after it all that they could all find a way to accept it and be okay around each other. Alexis knew deep down she was still worried over everything

Alexis got home and sighed as she saw max who was in the kitchen. She looked to him and sighed as she saw him with Esme. She walked over to him and smiled "can we talk" Alexis asked as Esme walked off "I'll give you both a moment" she said as Alexis looked to max as he walked over to her and took a hold of her hand and smiled "what's wrong?" He asked as she sighed "I'm not stupid max, I know that your having an affair but I also know that I love you and nothing is going to change that. I don't want to loose you" she said as he nodded "I'll end it, it means nothing. She means nothing I only love you" max said unaware of how a hurt Esme was listening in and heard just what he thought of her

Alexis smiled as she walked into the living room and saw Esme. Esme smiled to her "are you okay?" "I don't know, I need to tell you something and don't hate me. I've been sleeping with tom still and it's all a mess as I love max still and I just don't know what to do" she said as Esme hugged her and smiled "it's okay, you need to follow your heart" Esme said as Alexis frowned not sure on what her heart was actually saying
