Staying Strong with Love

Chapter 2: First visit with Alex

So after meeting Alex at school I met him at his apartment and i began to think wow he only a senior in high school and already living alone.

*walks inside and sits down*

He began to tell me about hisself ... of course you know my name is Alex Hughes. I love school and growing up too be someone! My future holds alot I have a full scholarship to any college I want basically because of my great techniques of football. Being number 1 on the team is a great sight for me! "Soon you can become lady number 1" he laughed

But one other thing I hope it want change your mind about how you feel about me! I'm all about my books and school or whatever but I have a street life which consists of hanging with my boys and drug dealing. Its not just a small thing I do this is big I'm top notch out here on these streets.

All I need is a woman thats gone ride for me and be there for me through it all. "Ain't nothing like a rider Ashley." He said. I never even had a family that would look out for me so getting it how I live is all I know.

I began to think to myself how am I going to be able to cope with him being a big time drug dealer and the fact that he needs a rider. "I'm not trill to the game." I laughed Then I began to remeber what my friend had told me "if he seems like the one for you go for it" I quoted her

*begans to get dark*

Well I believe it's time for me to go nice talking to you alex. I'll call you.

"Okay, bae" he said

In my head im thinking "Alex we are not official"

"Before you go can you answer this? Am I the one for you?" He asked

*blushing* "yes" I said

*he kisses my forehead*

We both began to say see you later.
