Chapter 2: Changes
"So are you ready to meet everyone?" ask Shannon
"It's not like I don't know Matt and Jeff." I replied as we headed into the arena
"Very true." He said with a laugh "Here's Jeff and Matt's locker room."
"Are you going to knock or stand there?" I ask
Just as Shannon was about to knock on the door it swung open. Matt was standing there. No shirt. His hair let down and still wet from a shower. Drops of water still falling on his chest. After looking him over our eyes met. I think I forgot how to breathe at that moment. It took everything I had not to pass out.
"Hey, Matt you remember Alexis." Shan said bringing us both back to reality.
"Yeah, it's been a while." He said not taking his eyes from mine. "Do you want to come in? Jeff will be out of the shower soon."
"She can. I have to go talk to Vince. Be back as soon as I can." Shan said walking off down the hall.
Matt wasted no time after Shan left. Before I knew what was going on I was in his arms. God how I missed those arms around me. Sure this wasn't like the other times. This was just one of those I missed you hugs. A friendly hug. He held me there for what felt like to short of a time. I could spend forever in his arms.
"Ali your back." Jeff yelled as he came from the bathroom and pulled me into a bone crushing hug.
"Cant…breath" I said trying to get away for the soaking wet man.
"Sorry, I forgot how weak you were." He joked as he let me go causing me to fall to the floor while he laughed.
"Me? Weak? If I recall it was I who kicked yours and Shannon's butts many times at your house when we were kids."
"True. But ya know were not kids anymore I mean look at you. You look great." He said helping me back up.
"Are you hitting on me Jeffery?" Ali asks raising one eyebrow in the air.
"Me? Hit on you? No way, you're the one falling for me remember?" he joked
"You keep telling your self that and I'll just act like your just going insane from landing on your head so much."
"That's mean. But anyways how have you been? Shan told us about your boyfriend." Jeff said sitting down in the chair next to the couch that Matt had sat down on. I took my place next to Matt on the couch.
"Well for starters he wasn't my boyfriend. He was the only friend I had after what happened and that wasn't even till recently. But yeah it hurts knowing has not around anymore. It hurts a lot knowing he died because of me."
"It wasn't your fault you couldn't help what happened. He wouldn't want you sad. You have us now. I have to head out will the two of you be okay?" Jeff ask standing up
We both nodded and watched him leave.
"I'm sorry." Matt said after a couple minutes of silence
"For what?"
"I wasn't there for you like I promised."
"Matt we had a fight as well if I recall. Besides even if you were still my friend you would have been at work and nothing would have been any different."
"Ali it's more than that. I left you. I didn't want to but I did. I went with Shan. I didn't fight for you. I was so stupid…."
I couldn't take the sad story anymore I knew how he felt. I cried myself to sleep so many times I couldn't cry anymore. I was numb for the longest time. So I stopped him the only way I could think of. I kissed him. It was a small kiss, almost not even a kiss.
"It was my fault just as much as it was yours. I took my anger out on you that day and ended things."
'I shouldn't have left Lexi."
I placed my finger on his lips before he could say anything else. We were so close now. "Don't say anything else about it. That was the past. How about we start over?" I said leaning toward him till we were a few inches apart.
"I would like that a lot." He said before closing the space between us and capturing my lips with his in a deep kiss.
We spent the next few hours in each others arms and just sitting there and talking. He told me about Amy his Ex- girlfriend and how she had treated him. He told me about work and anything else that came across his mind. I told him everything I could about what I became when they left and after Jack came into my life.
AN: I know its short but I haven't had much time. I'll be able to work on it a lot more now that I don't have school to deal with. Thanks for the reviews. I hope to get many more.
