Author's Note: Okay, this was written for my friend, because apparently he ships my oc and Tate more than Violet and Tate now... Eventually I'll upload the stories about Alice's life and death, once I finish them to how I like them. I have to say this was difficult for me because I'm a huge Violet and Tate shipper... Anyways, I hope you enjoy it! Review if you want to.

I don't own American Horror Story, Tate, Moira or Violet, but Josh and Alice do belong to me. The song lyrics are also not mine, they belong to Avril Lavigne. (The song is Skater Boy by Avril Lavigne.)


Sorry girl, but you missed out
Well tough luck that boy's mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see
See the man that boy could be
There is more than meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside
He's just a boy and I'm just a girl
can I make it any more obvious?
We are in love, haven't you heard?
How we rock each other's world!

For years, Alice had been Tate's best friend. She knew him and understood him better than anyone because he actually talked to her about what was on his mind. Tate had taken her for granted, never seeing how much she actually cared about him. When he met Violet, he had thought he was completely, head over heels in love with her. He thought he actually couldn't exist without going completely batshit crazy if he didn't have her. Yet, when he did lose her, he didn't lose his mind. Sure, for a while it was completely unbearable. He locked himself in the basement so that he wouldn't have to see her so happy with her family. It was as if she was perfectly fine without him. It wasn't until then that he actually saw Alice for what she was. He finally realized that he would go insane without Alice, not Violet.

When Tate was addicted to drugs during high school, it was Alice who stood by him despite it, trying to help him get clean. When Tate's father left, Alice was there even though they were children. She was there through almost everything he had to deal with involving Constance. Hell, she was even with him when he died! Despite every horrible thing he's done, she was by his side, helping when he wanted and dealing with his shit when he was pissed at the world. Violet couldn't even handle the truth about what he had done, let alone be able to deal with him when he got in one of his 'moods' as Alice put it. Sure, it wasn't Alice's mother he had raped, but he had practically been the reason she was trapped here. It took three years of waiting for Violet to finally realize that he didn't need her. He had even waited for her, despite the new boy she had found. She wasn't lonely anymore, she had found someone new, but it hurt like hell to see it. It was completely unfair to Alice that he had used her to get over Violet, but if he hadn't, he never would have realized he had deeper feelings for her than just friendship.

"Alice!" The blonde turned carefully to see Violet walking down the hall towards her and smiled kindly at the girl. "Good afternoon, Violet."
"How is Tate?" Violet asked hesitantly, and Alice could see the worry in her eyes. Five years of never even mentioning his name and now she was concerned about him. "I've seen him leaving the basement more and more lately… Is he doing better?"
"He's much better now, actually." Alice said softly, seeing the relief flood the girl's face at her words. It was actually odd to see her without the newest ghost attached to her arm. He had been here for nearly three years already, and still she hadn't bothered to ask his name.
"Do you... Do you think I could talk to him?" Her voice wavered, as if suddenly she was going to start crying. "I feel so terrible for hurting him."
"I don't think that is wise, Miss Violet." Moira stated, walking up to the two teenage girls quietly. Normally she wouldn't interrupt others' conversations, but Josh had been wondering where his girlfriend had gone off to.
Alice just smiled sweetly at Violet, "I don't think there is anything left to fix between you two, Violet. You've moved on, as has Tate." She hated being so cruel to the girl, but after everything she had put Tate through, she kind of deserved it. Violet just stared at the pale blonde girl in front of her, stunned.
"Bullshit." She said finally before turning away, apparently furious with the sudden news.
"Miss Violet, Josh was looking for you!" Moira called after the girl before giving Alice a small smile. "Good for you, Alice."
"I don't know what you mean, Moira..." She looked at the old maid curiously, chewing on her bottom lip. She really did feel bad for what she had said to Violet.
"After all of your years of waiting, you finally get the boy you love. Personally, I don't think Violet could handle him as well as you do."
Alice just blushed, fiddling idly with the tips of her white-blonde hair, a blush creeping on to her cheeks. "Thank you, Moira."
The maid gave the blonde another smile before wandering off to do whatever it was she did in her free time. Alice stood there for a moment before she felt arms go around her waist, pulling her close.
"Boo." Tate whispered in her ear, sending shivers down her spine. Alice leaned her head back, resting it against her chest with a small giggle. "What were you and Moira talking about?"
"We were talking about you actually. I just had a small chat with Violet too… She was asking how you were." She responded, her voice lowering when she mentioned Violet.
"Oh, I fucking exist again, do I?" His arms moved from around her waist and the girl turned, taking hold of one of his hands.
"She wanted to talk to you as well. Moira and I informed her of the changes that have taken place over the last five years…" Alice bit her lip, hoping he wouldn't be mad that she had told his ex about them. Tate just grinned. "She didn't seem very happy…"
"I might just have to take her up on that talk." Tate stated, using air quotes when he said 'talk'. He leaned down and pressed his lip against Alice's in a gentle kiss.
