Mine Forever

Chapter 22

A week later

I woke up in Alex's arms. I looked up at him and saw his eyes were red and puffy. He let go off me and I turned towards him.

"Were you up all night?"

"Yeah. I'm fine you slept okay?"

"That's not important. Are you okay? I really think we should skip school today so you can get some sleep. I don't want you to go."

"Nah we can't do that. I'll be okay." He wiped his eyes and closed them for a second.

"I'm not going. Forget what you saying. I don't feel like going so I'm not." He opened them and stared at me. The inside of his eyes were red. After what had happened with Ashley, Alex was just taking it really hard. Everyday I wake up and his eyes would be the same. He wouldn't sleep at night.

"Your going and I am too."

"Not today. You need to sleep. Last night was crazy and you need to rest." I thought about everything. Alex does so much for me. I can't let him go to school like this. It's bad enough that he didn't know if it was his child, but he was taking it so hard.

"I'm alright. Just get ready. I'll make it today." I shook my head. I stayed in the bed.

"No. Today is not about me. I know your taking it hard because you didn't know, but if you knew I think that would make you feel better." He grabbed his phone and handed it to me. I unlocked it and called Ashley. I know this conversation wouldn't go well, but if it would make Alex feel better I would do it. She picked up after it rung like 5 times.

"What?" She said rudely. She sniffle a little.

"This isn't Alex." I said she stayed quiet until I heard a noise in the background. I ignored it, and thought of something to say.

"What do you want bitch?" She said. I rolled my eyes.

"You not about to call me a bitch. You mad? I need you to chill out. I'm not for your drama. You need to get a life before I end it. You need to find out who's baby it was."my whole mood had changed. She has played so many games and now I was ready to hurt her.

"I already know. it's Alex." She said trying to be funny.

"Don't fucking play with me. He would never. Are you mad because I won? I always do." She sucked her teeth.

"Whatever. Who cares? I can still have one by him. I don't care if that other baby was Cameron's, you will pay for this"

"I bet you won't though. He doesn't want you. Your so desperate for attention. Your not going to do anything. You will be handled if anything. Goodbye and don't call Alex anymore." I hung up and gave Alex back the phone. He sat up and looked at me. I smiled.

"It wasn't yours." I said rubbing his shoulder. He smiled a little.

"What?" I asked.

"That's solves that issue, but what about us? I don't want to argue anymore." I felt like every time he says that it happens anyways. I didn't know what to believe anymore.

"I don't either. But every time you say that it happens again. I'm so confused about us. About what happened last night. It turned from Omar and Niaysia to the baby to something else."

"I just can't handle your emotions sometimes. You act one way and then say something else. I'm a little used to it but it makes me mad sometimes."

"So everything's my fault? Alright" I sighed.

"No but you make it worse sometimes. I want to keep you happy but it doesn't always work."

"Well why don't you just leave me? You can't do it so just leave. We don't have time to play. If I don't need to have these kids I won't."
