Marissa came downstairs to where Alex was still sobbing on the floor. She walked beside her, knelt down and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You okay?" she asked although realizing the answer herself
"What did you think was going to happen when you came here, Marissa?" she asked very dryly
"Wh...what do you mean?" Marissa was hurt by what Alex had asked her.
"I mean," she said getting up "did you expect to get here, and have me still pinning over you and everything would be alright? Things don't work like that!" Alex practically yelled the last part
"No, I just.." She tried to continue before Alex cut her off.
"Just what, didn't think about me?" she said still angry
"No. I couldn't keep thinking 'What if' it's been killing me for the past two years, wondering if I had done something different if it would be me in that picture on your wall." Marissa answered tears forming in her eyes.
"I know I'm being selfish but I needed to know if there was anything, any possibly" She stood up, getting closer to Alex before finishing "so is there?, you know we could maybe even do it the right way this time." Marissa said holding the tears back while staring at Alex intensely.
"Wow, Marissa this is just.. too much...too soon" Alex replied denying the urge to wipe away the tear that finally rolled down Marissa's face.
"I know, I know I just miss you and there was something I never got the chance to tell you..." Marissa purposely left the sentence hanging.
"Oh yeah and what was that?" Alex replied falling right into the trap Marissa had set for her.
"That I love you, Alex Kelly." Marissa said smiling sheepishly, but Marissa definitely didn't get the reaction she was looking for. Instead Alex had this look of shock on her face, but only for a moment before she flew up and headed towards the door.
"I'm really sorry I don't mean to just leave like this but, I just really need to clear my head. I'm gonna go for a walk and when I get back we can um.. talk about this." Alex said very rushed as she practically ran out the door. Now leaving Marissa left to cry on the floor.
About an hour later Alex returns, she sees Marissa on the couch and steps forward.
"Look Marissa, I think we both need some time to process what happened today. I don't want you to think I'm kicking you out but, I don't think its best you stay here." Alex said in a sad voice
Extremely disappointed and heartbroken Marissa stood up and gather her thoughts.
"Alright, just uh.. I'll grab my things and be out." she went up got her things and was getting ready to leave.
"Look Alex I meant what I said earlier, and if you change your mind or just wanna talk or something heres my number." With that Marissa grabbed the handle and was about to be on her way, until something stopped her.
"Marissa," Alex said grabbing her wrist and turning her around so she could look her in the eyes. "I will call you, I just need time alright?" she said feeling terrible for kicking her out like that.
"Yeah, got it." She said escaping the apartment before something even worse decided to happen. Now all three girls were left feeling broken.
I'm now working on the next update, now that Malex drama is out of the way. I've already got the rest of this story planned out into 6 more updates preceding this one. I'm sort of trying to wrap this up before I go back to school so be on the look out for updates.
