Disclaimers apply. I'm making no money off this fanfic so don't try to borrow any money from me. This story is shoujo-ai so don't say I didn't warn you beforehand. Oh and to all the Jaden/Alexis fans out there I'm sorry that this chapter may offend you. I also do not own the song Invisible Tomorrow that belongs to PuffyAmiYumi so there.
Now let's rock it and roll it baby!
Jennifer was pacing nervously around her dorm trying to figure out how to tell Alexis the truth about herself. To be quite honest she doesn't know why she's doing this maybe a part of her wants to do this to cleanse her soul of this terrible curse she's been carrying for so long. She's been to several different places mostly small towns and cities and she met several nice people but they always turned their backs on her when they learned the truth maybe it'll be different this time.
Alexis's POV
I was heading over to Sandra's dorm thinking about what has happened over the past few weeks since Jaden defeated the Society of Light I finally decided to tell Jaden how I feel about him…
Flashback
"J-Jaden I-I need to tell you something important." I managed to sputter out as I was talking to Jaden "Hm? What's up Lexis?" Jaden asked as I nervously tried to bring up the courage to tell him. Well it's now or never "Jaden I love you very much!" There I said it whew it feel like a weight has been lifted up from my shoulders.
Jaden looked at me with eyes that told me that he cares about me "Look Alexis I love you too. But not that way I see you more as a sister than a soul mate."
End Flashback
Those words almost crushed me but Jaden and I agreed that we should still be friends. My friends and my brother agreed that maybe it wasn't meant to be Sandra has been very supportive in helping me get over it I realized that maybe I might have a crush on her. But is it right? Is it morally sound? What would she think if she knew? Ack I'm overanalyzing this I'll figure it out later maybe it's just a crush and it'll go away.
Normal POV
Jennifer was pacing back and forth trying to find a way to tell the truth she decided to play one of her CDs to calm herself. She always listens to music when she needs to make a decision it gives her the confidence to actually go through the idea. She puts the CD setting on random and heads into the kitchen like her mom she knows how to make a great dinner in fact the cafeteria workers constantly ask her for recipes. A knock at the door breaks her train of thought as Alexis lets herself in Jennifer straightens up her uniform (Think red version of Obelisk Blue's girl's uniform) the two sat down and drank tea and made idle small talk about the rumor mill.
Jennifer nervously fidgets her cup this did not go by unnoticed Alexis looked at Jennifer with worry "Sandra what's wrong? You seem a little nervous" Jennifer sighed felling that if she didn't do this she'd regret not telling her. Jennifer took in a deep breath "Alexis I have something to tell you. You see everything I've told you has been a lie I felt as though I had to tell someone. My name isn't Sandra Moore my real name is Jennifer Maria Wheeler and I've been on the run from a madman for the past year. You see this man wants me dead because he needs me in a ritual to resurrect an ancient evil named Zorc my god father Yugi suggested I come here just in case he actually finds me." Jennifer confessed to Alexis awaiting her reaction to this revelation.
Alexis looks at Jennifer with a feeling that she's led a hard life and needs her help "Look I don't care what your name is I'll help no matter what." Alexis said as she hugged Jennifer who cries into her shoulder "Is there anything else you want to tell me?" Alexis asked Jennifer. Jennifer struggled to find the right words "Well now that you mention it. You see I have a crush on a girl and I don't know how to tell her that I like her very much I'm afraid what she thinks about me. I'm so scared I don't know what to do." Despite herself she laughed at the irony she faced Jared and yet confessing that she loves Alexis scares the living daylights out of her. Alexis smiled knowingly "It's me isn't it?" Jennifer was taken aback did Alexis love her? "Yes Jennifer I love you too and I now realize that love knows no bounds so who care what they think." With those words Alexis leaned in and kissed Jennifer who was stunned but returned the kiss with equal passion and as the kiss lingered a familiar song on the stereo played.
These thoughts of love don't dry out
Don't' get distracted
Don't stop it's a little pathetic
But I'll leave it with you
It's a rough road to freedom
Bringing back the past
Feels like a long story starting
Promise not to promise
Heart coming apart
Can't see the blur of tomorrow
Unknown road
Sometimes hidden
Sometimes there
I woke up naked
My ordinary life stopped
Body let's go
Light's flipping and melting
Things won't go as you wish
No matter how much you squirm no
Youth is alright
Speeding nights on the run
Heart broken, blue tomorrow
Body lets go, light flips
As they separated they knew they were meant to be come what may they will face it together.
