Even after their breakup in high school, Alex and Dean were still hopelessly in love, but were afraid of talking about their feelings, until Dean was brave and asked Alex out. Alex was very excited, and she wrote it down on her diary: «January 9th: Dean and I are back together». They were the happiest couple in college, and everyday they were more and more in love. But one day, Dean told Alex that he and his family were moving to Italy in a month, because he had, amazingly, gotten a scholarship, and he had had no choice, since it was a great opportunity. Alex was constantly begging for him to stay, but of course that was impossible.
"Please...don't leave..."
"I'm sorry Alex; I have to. I don't want to leave either, but everyone is forcing me. I'm under so much pressure. I have no choice."
"I'm going to miss you so much."
"I'm going to miss you too baby."
Alex hugged him tightly as the tears welled in her eyes. She just let them fall. They decided to make the best of the time they had left together though it never seemed to be enough.
So the night before Dean left, Alex decided to show Dean her love towards him through the best way she could think of. She told him to meet her at a hotel at 12:00 a.m., room 103. Dean didn't know why, but went anyways. He opened the door of the room 103 and saw a naked Alex under the blankets. At first he was shocked but after Alex told him about her plan, he smiled and lay with her. That was the best and final part of their relationship, because the next morning, Alex would wake up and not find Dean next to her. Instead, she'd find a red rose and a note with the saddest words she has read. She'd press the note to her heart and cry silently. She'd write it down: «March 20th: Dean left me». Her emotions would mix up. She'd feel very sad, because there'd be a possibility that she'd never see Dean again. She would also be nervous, because magic wouldn't solve her problems this time. She'd be mad, at life, for taking Dean away. But she would also be happy, because the bond between Dean and her would be so strong she'd physically feel it, all around her. And she would know she'd always keep a bit of him in her life.
So the days went on. Apart from Dean's departure, not many things had changed in Alex's life, because, in other words, she had no life anymore. Her parents insisted on her being depressed and told her to go to the psychologist. Truth is, she wasn't depressed; she was destroyed. But whenever she felt like committing suicide, the only things she needed to do were to look at Dean's rose and to read his note over and over again. Those were the only moments she felt truly happy, because it felt like Dean was sitting next to her, caressing and kissing her. One day, while she and her family were having lunch, she felt a sharp pain on her stomach and the sudden urge to throw up. This did not surprise her though; it was not the first time it happened. She hadn't told anyone except for Harper. She was studying fashion in Florida, but they still texted each other all the time and visited once a month. Harper's advice had been to tell her parents, but Alex was way past that. She wasn't scared of telling her parents; she just feared telling Dean. It was going to be shocking news for him. Alex knew that if she told Dean, he'd take the first flight to NY to be with her and… it. No. He was probably already getting used to his new life. She didn't want it to be a burden. She just wanted it to look exactly like Dean; a perfect copycat. Every line, every dot… even his rebel attitude. Absolutely everything. She loved it as much as she loved Dean. Ever since she found out, she had never thought about abortion, not even when she thought her life was hard enough for her, let alone having to build someone else's. Killing it would be like killing Dean. How could she do such thing? She'd just go on with her pregnancy, acting as normal as possible, even though she knew it was going to be a challenge; what with a kid inside her body kicking and making her throw up all the time. She loved it anyways.
