CHAPTER 20

"Marissa, I left her there. I knew you were at home, upset from our fight and I had to get back to you." She took Marissa's hands into her own as she continued explaining.

The limo came to a smooth stop and the door was opened for the two to exit. Jodie got out first and drunkenly grinned at Alex while she offered her hand to the blonde. The one thing she wanted since they split, and she was finally going to get it. Just one more night with the blonde, and how famous this would make her.

Alex took the hand and returned the smile, just as drunk. The lights around them started up again as soon as she stepped out of the limo. Just as it was in the limo, their hands made contact with intimate parts of the others body while their lips explored. They reached the doorstep of Jodie's front door and as the small brunette fumbled with her keys, Alex let her hands travel the woman's body. All the while, camera's flashed and comments were shouted to them.

Finally, Jodie was able to get the door open and they tripped into the home, slamming the door behind them.

They laughed as they crashed on the floor. The laughter continued as Alex crawled on top of Jodie and started kissing her. They stayed that way, their hands trailing roughly over the others body, trying to rid the clothes that covered them. Together, they stood up with a struggle, using anything they could to pull themselves up.

Pictures fell from the wall and small knick knacks Jodie had on shelves as decoration shattered to pieces as they swayed back and forth down the hallway to Jodie's bedroom. Making it there, each hardly in one piece, they collapsed on the bed and clothing started to come off.

Jodie flipped them and straddled the blonde's legs. She tugged at the jeans that she'd worked on unbuttoning and unzipping.

Alex looked up at her then and dropped her hands. A sudden wave of soberness washed over her and without a second thought she shoved the Latina off her, scurried off the bed and gathered her things from the floor. She heard the objections of her ex girlfriend as she exited the room while pulling on her shirt. She stopped just long enough to slip her converse shoes on. Not looking back, Alex quickly made her way out of the house.

Her eyes were blinded as the camera's started flashing again. There weren't as many but with how much alcohol she had in her system and the hangover starting to rear its ugly head, it made her head throb incessantly. She threw her arm up to shield herself as she stumbled drunkenly through the mob to the limo that still waited for her.

"Take me home..." She mumbled once settled in the leather seats. The limo driver gave a nod of his head and watched as Alex fell onto the seat, sleep claiming her.

Awhile later, the driver pulled up to the gated home and pressed the button for entry.

"Alex, you know the code or are you drunk enough not to remember it?" An angry and sleepy Marissa said into the intercom.

"Miss Cooper, I drove for Miss Kelly and her friends tonight, I am here to drop her off. She is asleep in the back." He spoke into the small box.

There was a buzz and the gates slowly started to open. Marissa stepped out as he pulled the long vehicle into the drive and stopped. She waited at the step as he got out and ran to open the door for Alex.

Marissa sighed, she knew he wasn't going to be able to get her to wake up. She let her arms down and made her way over to help him get her girlfriend. The limo driver stepped back and Marissa crawled in. She shook her and patted her cheek a few times to try and get her awake. She could smell the Patron, Corona and Vodka on her. It made her sick to her stomach.

"Alex wake up, you're at home. You need to come inside." She said loudly to wake her girlfriend up.

Alex mumbled and instead of waking up she adjusted her head, turning it to face the seat. Marissa growled, she didn't have time for this. She had to be up in 2 hours so she wasn't late for her meeting. Of course she had to be the one stuck with a girlfriend who would get so drunk and be so selfish.

"Alex! Wake up!" She slapped her arm. Alex moaned and her eyes fluttered open. "Get up and lets go inside."

"Riss?" Alex' voice was hoarse and dry she needed water. "When did you get here?"

Marissa rolled her eyes heavenward, "you're at home. Now get up and lets go inside. I'm tired and I have to get up in a few hours so I'm not late for my meeting."

"Ugh stop yelling, I'm getting up."

"It was stupid for me to even go out after our fight and not talk to you about it, but it happened and I can't take that back. I wish I could but I can't. But I didn't sleep with her. I could be drunk to the point of passing out and I still would not cheat on you." Marissa listened and watched as Alex moved beside her onto the couch, "I love you, Marissa, and I know you think I betrayed you in the worst way, but I promise you, with everything inside of me that I didn't. I love you."

And this is where I will leave you all hanging, until next time!
