"NO! And you can sleep in the guest room tonight" Mitchie yelled before slamming the bedroom door. Alex flinched, her own tears forcing their way out and down her face.
Alex walked up the stairs and knocked on their bedroom door.
"Mitch, can you please talk to me?" Alex begged. There was no response, Alex slid down the door and sat on the ground as tears slid silently down her face. Alex couldn't contain the whimpers that escaped her mouth. Suddenly, the door opened and Alex fell backwards. She looked up to see a crying Mitchie. Mitchie managed to even her voice enough to talk.
"Let's talk." She said before more tears streamed down her face.
"Okay." Alex said as she stood up and made her way over to the bed to sit down. She looked up at Mitchie who was leaning against the wall opposite.
"Are you going to sit down?" Alex said quietly as she looked at Mitchie. Mitchie just looked away.
"I'm fine here." She said coldly. Alex nodded, wracking her brain for something appropriate to say.
"I'm so sorry Mitchie." Alex said. "I don't want this to come between us." She continued. Mitchie still didn't say anything, she appeared to find the floor very interesting at this point.
"It's just they said- then i-...i don't know." Alex said, she didn't really know what she was saying.
"It's fine." Mitchie said simply, still not making eye contact with Alex. Alex stood up and approached Mitchie before taking Mitchie's hands in hers.
"Can you please look at me?" Alex asked pleadingly. Mitchie still didn't budge.
"Mitch?" Alex begged as she put her fingers under Mitchie's chin, forcing her to look at her. Mitchie's eyes reflected so much hurt and pain and Alex kind of wish she didn't make Mitchie look at her now, she felt so guilty and stupid.
"Mitchie, i'm so sorry...i was stupid and selfish. I will call them up tomorrow and tell them to forget it, okay?" Alex said, searching Mitchie's eyes for her thoughts.
"You don't have to do that." Mitchie said, her features finally relaxing a little.
"Yes i do. I love you, more than anything. More than any career, more than any kind of fame or riches. I love you more than anything in the whole world and i hurt you. And i'm so sorry, and i'm going to make it right." Alex said in a last ditch effort to find forgiveness from Mitchie.
"I love you too, so i don't want to stand in the way of your dreams." Mitchie said, even though her heart was screaming at her to agree with Alex's plan.
"You are my dream Mitchie." Alex said with such finality that Mitchie started to feel a bit guilty.
"You are my dream too Alex, but i know you were looking forward to this. I trust you." Mitchie said. She still wasn't okay with this, but she was going to try to be...for Alex.
"Are you sure Mitchie? Because i really have no problem telling them to shove it." Alex said. Mitchie giggled and took Alex's face in her hands placing a light kiss on her nose.
"I'm sure. I love you baby." Mitchie said with a small smile.
"I love you too." Alex said, connecting her lips with Mitchie's. Mitchie's kisses never failed to give Alex the feeling that her whole body just got 50,000 volts of electricity sent through it. The kiss heated up and Mitchie placed her hands on Alex's hips pulling her closer. Mitchie broke the kiss, much to Alex's dismay.
"Do you know what i love?" Mitchie whispered as her nose grazed Alex's.
"What's that baby?" Alex whispered back.
"Really. Hot. Make-up. Sex." Mitchie said between kisses. Suddenly, Alex was feeling EXTREMELY turned on.
"Oh really?" Alex said as she turned Mitchie around and led her towards the bed. When Mitchie's knees hit the bed, she fell back onto it, Alex falling ontop of her ravishing her neck with kisses.
"Really." Mitchie whispered back as she sat up slightly and tore off Alex's shirt.
Alex woke up with nothing but a white sheet covering her naked body. She was laying on Mitchie's chest with Mitchie's arm around her, and her arm draped over Mitchie. She looked up to see a still sleeping and very naked Mitchie and she leant up to kiss her cheek. Mitchie stirred and fluttered her eyelashes before finally waking up.
"Hey there sleepyhead." Alex said as placed a soft kiss on Mitchie's cheek.
"Hey beautiful." Mitchie smiled as she put her fingers under Alex's chin to pull her in for another kiss.
"I was thinking..." Alex started to say when she broke the kiss.
"That's dangerous. Don't hurt yourself." Mitchie teased with a wink.
"Oh, ha-ha. You are hilarious. But seriously, why do we need to hide our relationship? Didn't you singing to me on stage at your LA show sort of tip everyone off?" Alex questioned as she remembered back to that night with a sad smile.
"Well, you would think so...but Amanda and Mia played it off as a 'broken friendship' to 'protect' my image." Mitchie explained as she air quoted. Alex looked troubled.
"I really don't like this." Alex whispered.
"It's okay Lexi, it's only for a little while until you get bigger." Mitchie said, she was sure that she was trying to convince herself more then she was trying to convince Alex.
"Yeah, i guess. As long as you know that it's you i love, and you i'm coming home to." Alex said as she propped herself up on one elbow and looked at Mitchie.
"Well as long as no funny business happens in between, we will be okay." Mitchie half joked.
" I promise. I love you." Alex said with a big smile reserved just for Mitchie.
"I love you too, and i trust you." Mitchie replied with so much love in her eyes.
Two weeks later
"So Alex, i believe this is your first TV interview." A young, brunette woman asked.
"Yes, i am so excited to be here. Thank you for having me." Alex said with a bright, white smile.
"Our pleasure, so tell us about your first single that was recorded with the very beautiful and incredible Mitchie Torres. How did that happen?" The woman asked with an encouraging smile. Mitchie was watching from the side of the stage, and she knew Alex's response was going to sting.
"Well Mitchie and i have been great friends for a while now, and it was just a spare of the moment decision really. We had so much fun recording." Alex answered confidently, it's like she was made for this.
"Well at least that was half true." Mitchie muttered to herself, the sting from Alex's words still cutting deep.
"Wow, well i'm sure the world is thankful for that. The duet topped the charts. Anyways, getting a bit personal now...rumour has it that you and Justin BIEBER are dating. Any truth to that? We all are dying to know." The woman asked as she waited eagerly for a response. Alex hesitated and looked to the side of the stage where Mitchie was standing. The look on Mitchie's face tore Alex apart, but Mitchie nodded anyway.
"Yes, he is actually here with me now." Alex said with a big smile.
"Justin Bieber everyone!" The woman said as Justin approached the side of the stage. He gave Mitchie a smirk that he just wanted to slap off his face, before walking on stage and waving to the audience. He sat next to Alex and put his arm around her.
"Hey Justin, we are so excited to have you here. Alex and i were just talking about your relationship. Care to give us any gritty details." The woman said as she winked at Justin. Justin looked at Mitchie, then back at Alex before speaking.
"Yeah, Alex and i have been dating for a while now. She's amazing, and definitely a hottie...i am sure there are ALOT of people who wish they were in my position right now." Justin said with a cheesy smile. He looked directly at Mitchie as she said the last part. It took all her willpower not to run onstage and hit that smirk off his face with a chair. Alex just smiled and said nothing.
"So either you are a really good actress, or you REALLY enjoyed Justin feeling you up back there." Mitchie said as they drove the half hour drive back home.
"I'm a really good actress." Alex said simply, a bit hurt that Mitchie would even say that.
"Okay." Mitchie replied.
"Okay, i know you want to say something so just say it." Alex said, she knew that look on Mitchie's face, and that tone.
"I don't want you to fall for him." Mitchie said sadly. She briefly glanced at Alex who took Mitchie by the hand and leaned over to kiss her cheek.
"Baby, that's never going to happen." Alex reassured her.
"Promise?" Mitche asked with so much need that is saddened Alex.
"Promise." Alex agreed.
