Hey guys, I decided to keep this story going. I like it and I hope you do too. :)

Mitchie walked the few blocks home, tears threatening to fall more and more with every step. She didn't know how she ended up in this big mess. She remembered back to when the Alex fling first started, and she wondered how she got so sucked in to Alex's game in the first place. She wondered how a simple kiss turned into a huge web of messy lies, outlined by hurt and pain. She wondered how her bestfriend of eleven years, her only source of happiness and freedom became her only source of hurt and entrapment. Entrapment in her lies.

One year ago...

Mitchie and Alex were at a party that some random girl from school threw, on a Saturday night.

"Dance with me." Alex whispered in Mitchie's ear as Mitchie took a sip of her tequila, the vibrations from the loud music buzzing through her body. Mitchie took her bestfriend's hand, and led her to the middle of the dance floor. They danced close, grinding and swaying their hips to the music, completely unaware of the world around them. The alcohol, the music, the dancing was intoxicating to both girls. Alex put her hands around the back of Mitchie's neck, their foreheads resting against each other's as their hips moved as one to the beat of the music. Mitchie placed her hands on Alex's hips, pulling her closer. Mitchie could feel Alex's hot breath, dripping with the scent of alcohol against her own lips. Mitchie closed her eyes, getting lost in their own world. She felt a soft pair of lips envelope her bottom lip. She didn't know if it was the alcohol or a deep seated desire within her, but she moved her lips against Alex's, the sensation's sending tingles coursing through her body as the kiss was deepened.

Mitchie didn't know whether to smile at the memory, or cry because she knew that was the beginning of a long, dangerous cycle she was caught in. That was the night she realised she was in love with a girl, her bestfriend, someone who would give Mitchie her body...but never her heart.

Mitchie let herself into her house and walked straight up to her bedroom, not knowing or caring if anyone was home. She decided to take a nice, hot shower to clear her head. As the hot water engulfed her and worked it's magic as it relaxed her, she told herself that she did the right thing. She wondered if it actually was the right thing to do for her, or if she was merely trying to convince herself it was to spare her heart from anymore pain. But she knew deep down that she was already in too deep, her heart would always ache for Alex, and body would always ache for Alex's touch.

Mitchie shut the water off and wrapped a towel around her body before walking back into her room. She looked at her phone, three missed calls and five messages...all from Alex.

Alex - Mitch! Can you please answer. We need to talk, I don't want to leave things like this. You are my bestfriend.

Mitchie scoffed at the last part, they both knew they were way past the usual conventional idea of being simple bestfriends. Mitchie wished she could go back to that party and never kiss Alex for fear of too much damage to repair their friendship. Mitchie sat for a while, staring at her phone debating whether or not to call Alex back. She decided to send her a message instead.

Mitchie - Alex, there is nothing to talk about. We are in too deep and I don't think we can fix this. We can't be friends anymore because it hurts too much. You are with Miley, so just go and be happy with her.

Tears fell down Mitchie's face as she sent the message, it hurt her so much to say that...but it's what had to be done she reasoned with herself. It was time to get her life back on track. It didn't take Alex long to reply and Mitchie couldn't help but feel guilty as she read it.

Alex - Mitch, please don't do this. I need you. Friends forever, remember? I'm sorry I hurt you, I just...I don't know...I can't help myself with you. You are beautiful, and amazing, and you know me better then anyone. Don't leave.

Mitchie cried harder reading the message, she hated when Alex was sad. She didn't want to change her mind so she stuck with a short reply.

Mitchie - I can't, I'm sorry. It hurts too much.

Mitchie decided to turn her phone off, and bury her head in her pillow. It seemed like hours of tears had passed when she heard a knock on her window. Mitchie wasn't sure if she was hearing things, and merely stared at her curtain covered windows before she heard another knock. Mitchie got out of bed and opened her curtains. Revealing a freezing, dripping wet Alex outside the window. Mitchie hadn't even notcied it was raining. She opened the windows and let a crying Alex in.

"Alex. What are you doing here?" Mitchie asked, torn between being happy to see Alex and a feeling of dismay.

"You turned your phone off." Alex replied, not taking her eyes off Mitchie. Mitchie stayed quiet, suddenly finding the carpet very interesting. She knew of she looked into the beautiful chocolate eyes that she loved so much, she would cave.

"Look at me Mitch." Alex demanded as she lifted Mitchie's chin...forcing her to look at her.

"I love you Mitch, please. Don't walk away from me." Alex pleaded sadly.

"I know you do Alex, but not like I love you..." Mitchie replied as she looked into Alex's eyes. She couldn't read them. Alex stepped closer to Mitchie, cupping her cheeks. Mitchie involuntarily leaned into Alex's touch and closed her eyes. Alex placed a soft kiss on Mitchie's lips.

"I do love you Mitch..." Alex whispered.

I want lots of lovely reviews before I update please! :D
