Alex

It's been three months since I told Timmy and Tootie about us, for the first month they kind of stayed away from us, but who can blame them? They found out that a nineteen year old, who is soon to be twenty, has feelings for a soon to be fourteen year old, well actually now I'm fourteen and in a month Vicky will be twenty, what a messed up world, huh? But love is love, sometimes you just can't change that.

Anyway those two are getting really close, of course Timmy will never admit that, he's still a little shy, not as much before, but it's an improvement. I talk with them still but Tootie doesn't talk to me as much, I kind of thought she would loosen up since Timmy confessed to her, but Tootie doesn't want to throw her feelings about me, away.

It was the first week of September, this was my last day with Vicky, since I'm going to school now, Jerry and Nicky said I'm only allowed to spend the weekends with her now. Vicky was sitting on the couch while drinking some coffee, "It's not really that big of a deal, I mean you were the one who said that we do anything to separate us." Vicky sighed, even now I can see that she doesn't want to spend time away from me anymore than I do. "I know...It's just that I'll miss you..." I muttered.

"Since when have you been such a baby?" She snickered, I frowned, "I'm not a baby...And don't you feel like that?" I asked.

She shrugged, "It's only five days apart...Come on, it's better than seven days." Vicky put her cup down and looked at me, "Get up here."

I don't know why, but I really like sitting on the ground, just feels right. I got up and sat next to her, sometimes I sit close but usually I sit as far as I could, am I a wuss? No, I'm just being cautious. "Yes?" I said, she sighed exasperatedly, Wait...What did I do? "What, am I some sort of demon?" She asked, I smirked, "Don't answer that." She said quickly.

Ever since I got Timmy and Tootie involved about our re...Well I'm not sure it's a relationship, not an official one at least, we just talk and watch cartoons or movies but they're usually bad so we don't try those, sure we sometime just lay on the couch and be quiet...Hmm, I've really calmed down, I don't think about my mom and dad anymore, it's only been four years since they left, I know I shouldn't forgive them so easy, but I have to do eventually.

"You've matured...A lot, actually." I said softly, Vicky moved closer, "Yup, it's either I do or I don't. You know I wouldn't be like this if I haven't met you." She had a bright smile, Vicky rarely smiles around other people, but around me, she looks so ecstatic, exactly like me. "Which is a good thing. For both of us." I said.

Vicky wrapped her arm around my waist, "So about us not spending so much time together anymore, don't worry about it so much, otherwise I'll feel bad. What you are feeling right now is what I'm feeling, but I know it's for the best, plus it's not like we'll be away from each other forever."

She's got a point, like always...I rested my head on her shoulder, "Alright, fine. I'll just accept it and not be so bummed out about it, plus I don't have a say in this at all." I said, Vicky laughed and kissed my forehead, "Good, now you should get going, don't want to stay too late, or you might be too tired to go to school." She said and got up from the couch. I sighed, "Alright."

Once I got my stuff that I usually bring, Vicky waited for me by the door, she walked with me to the elevator, once the doors opened, she turned and smiled, "I know we agreed not to do this anymore, but just this once, okay?" She pulled me close and kissed me. I smiled and embraced her. After we separated I stepped into the elevator, "See you next weekend." I waved to her and she smiled as the doors closed, is it wrong that I actually rather skip school and stay with her?

When I got home Nicky told me that I missed dinner, but she still saved a plate for me, "It's in the microwave! Just warm it up!" She yelled from the living room, "Okay!" I said and went into the kitchen, what did she make today? Steak, corn and beans, salad too, I like her food, tastes awesome.

I heated up my food and decided to talk with Nicky and Jerry, I never talk with them, it's best that I start now, since it's been four years.

Timmy

It's been three months since Alex told us about his relationship with Vicky, he promised us that they aren't doing anything that'll get them separated (by the law). Tootie still doubts Alex though and she also doesn't entirely trust Vicky, but I do, the things Vicky told me...It's showed me that people can change, and that what they did in the past, should stay in the past.

Tootie and I were sitting in the park, once and awhile we just text other each other telling the other to meet up here, I don't mind it...Just getting used to it, and the fact that she really wants to be more than friends...I pay attention.

"So what's up?" Tootie asked, for awhile now I've been wondering why she's so against their relationship, well not really at least, she just doesn't want to see them, "Have you talked with Alex recently?" I asked, when I asked that question she had the same look I had when I got turned down from Trixie Tang, "No...But I don't mind. From time to time we do talk though, just not much." Tootie spoke quietly, like she was embarrassed.

"I see...Well hopefully you two talk soon, you've been getting quieter ever since they told us..." My voice faltered, "Am I really not good enough...?" It kind of just slipped out, Tootie looked surprised, "W-what?" She stammered.

I sighed, I really asked the big question, huh? "You don't talk to him as much because you actually think he's better suited to you than me, or is it because you just don't like that he's with Vicky?" Why am I saying these things? Were they actually buried deep inside me?

I don't know what's worse, her being confused about this or the fact that she's thinking about him even more...I smiled, "I...I can changed, I'm sorry it's taking so long...But you have no idea how hard that is on me. He told me once that if I can't love the Tootie that's a bit much, then I should look elsewhere. I was stupid to think you should change...I know you don't think I should change...But I do, that's why I told you all those things about me. But ever since I did, it's like you're losing interests in me, your mind keeps going back to him. Why?!"

"'Him' this and 'him' that, he has a name, it's Alex! Timmy I don't...Care about him as much as you think. I am thinking about him. But not the way you think, I'm worried about him, he's been there for me a lot, I don't want him to be separated from us either! He's like a big brother to me...He's made that quite clear." Tootie walked up to me and took my hand, "I love you, and only you. You changing won't affect that, you were always my priority one, I'm sorry for making you stress out about..."

My hands trembled, I just assumed something that could've ruined what we had...What hell am I doing?! "You don't have to apologize...I'm the one in the wrong, I'm sorry for assuming that you still liked Alex." I looked down at her hands, they were the same size as mine. After two minutes of silence, Tootie started laughing, "Tootie...?" I said with a puzzled look.

She held her side and put up her free hand, "I'm...I'm sorry! It's just that I knew this was going to happen eventually...Oh my god, I'm sorry." She kept laughing her face started to turn red, I rubbed my neck, "W-what do you m-mean?" I asked. She put her hand on my cheek and looked me in the eyes, "Because you overthink a lot of things. You think of the worst that could happen and then you blurt it out." She said, and then she sighed softly, "But at least I know you're thinking about me."

Next chapter won't be up for a couple of weeks, maybe more. But this will be all today, but if I'm feeling like writing it'll be up earlier.

Thanks for reading! I hope you all are having an awesome summer!
