Alex walked away from the pair feeling more confused than she ever had. On one hand she did have feelings for Marissa. On the other hand she wasn't sure whether or not to trust Summer's theory about Marissa's feelings for her. She did love Aubrey, but was she still IN love with her?
Alex had a headache and she had only been thinking for the four seconds it took her to walk from one room to the next.
Alex- Oh sorry, I didn't realize you were in here.
Marissa- Story of our relationship; you never noticing me when I'm right there in front of you!
Marissa was desperately trying to hold in her anger, she didn't wanna say something she'd regret but it felt good to finally be able to yell at her.
Alex- I always knew you were around.
Marissa- Yeah, just around. I always knew the second you walked into a room!
Alex- Marissa, of course I noticed you! I wouldn't even see anyone else when you were around me!
Marissa- You never showed it!
Alex- Neither did you!
Marissa- I was scared!
Alex- Me too!
Marissa- I love you!
Alex- I love you too! Wait…what!
Marissa just stared at Alex both fear and confusion evident in her eyes.
Back in the other room:
Aubrey walks into the room just as the screaming match had died down. She immediately stops as she sees Seth and Summer pressed up against the wall adjoining the two rooms.
Summer- Seth! Stop breathing! I can't hear anything.
Seth- Okay…whatever you want Summer…I'll just stop breathing for you.
Aubrey- Um, hi…do you guys know Alex Nichol?
Summer- Yeah, why?
Aubrey- Oh well I'm Aubrey…her kinda girlfriend.
Seth- Wow, it is an extreme pleasure meeting you.
Seth blatenly looked Aubrey up and down.
Summer- Seth, do you need a moment to yourself?
Summer made sure she embarrassed Seth even more by pointing out to Aubrey his crotchal area.
Seth- Haha! That's Summer, she's such a kidder! Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.
Summer- So, you're Alex's Aubrey.
Summer seized the girl up and immediately came to the conclusion that Marissa was still better…course she might be biased.
Aubrey- I guess if that's what you wanna call me. I prefer just Aubrey though.
Aubrey said the whole thing with a smile. She liked Summer…course she was a little creeped out since she mistook Summer sizing her up for Summer checking her out.
Summer- Well Alex is in the other room.
Aubrey- Thanks.
Summer( to herself)- She's nice…too bad that 'cuz of the BFF rule I have to hate her…oh well.
Knock, Knock
Aubrey- Hey Alex, you in here?
Alex- Um…yeah.
Alex was thankful for Aubrey breaking the uncomfortable silence that had lingered in the air since the revelation between her and Marissa, but she knew that since Aubrey was here a whole new type of uncomfortable silence would begin to rear its ugly head.
Marissa- Well I'll leave you two alone.
Alex- Marissa wait, don't go.
Marissa- No, it's fine. I'm gonna go see what Summer's doing. It was nice seeing you again Aubrey.
Aubrey- Yeah, you too.
To Alex- So I was thinking we could go out tonight.
Alex- I don't know. I have a lot to sort out.
Aubrey- All the more reason to go. You need an escape.
Alex- Look, Aubrey, last night I was really confused. I don't know what I want.
Aubrey- Oh…well…If I were you I'd figure it out soon 'cuz I'm not gonna wait forever. I have so many options and I've turned them all down for you. It's not fair for you to lead me on. You should think Alex, get back to me soon.
With that she left leaving Alex alone…all alone.
A.N. There you go…feelings confessed. I'll probably get them together soon…we'll see. I'm still debating about Seth and Summer but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what comes to my mind. Thanks for all the feedback.
