Chapter 7

She's Only A Friend

"She's only a friend Mason!" Alex shouted out at her boyfriend who had just stormed into the sandwich shop and was accusing her of cheating on him, which albeit she had done, but how could he possibly know that?

"I smell her all over your body Alex!" He growled out making his way closer to the waitress who was now backing away from him. Though worried she did not show it and merely smirked rolling her eyes.

'I took like ten showers this morning before work, how the hell could he possibly smell her on me? He's got nothing.' Her mind tried to reason and calm her down, it actually worked. There was no way that he could know she had slept with Tawni the other night. "No, her scent is no all over me! We went out the other night with some of her friends and Harper, that's all! Mason she's just a friend." She added laughing sarcastically. Secretly she hoped that he would buy the story because at this point she still was not sure what she wanted.

The werewolf glared over at the redhead who had prior to the interruption been looking at her newest hat in one of the dishes. Her eyes widened as he growled at her and her heart raced. "I'll see you in gym class!" She screamed out in a heightened voice before running out of the substation.

Mason glared back at his girlfriend with disbelieving eyes. "Alex if you are lying to me—"

"You'll tear out my throat and eat it for breakfast, yeah, yeah, enough already." She stated nonchalantly as she waved a hand to signal that she was growing tired of hearing about it as she headed back to her job. 'Wow, I must really hate him right now if I would rather be working than talking to him.'

Suddenly she was pushed up against the wall of the substation and there was a strong hand gripping her neck tightly, holding her in place. Her boyfriend's eyes were dark and staring into her own as she wiggled to try and free herself. Unable to scream, trying to grasp for breath. "You better not be lying to me Alex. I know you think you are so funny and that bad things cannot touch you because you are simply too amazing, but you are not. If you are engaging in an affair I swear to you, both of you will be together forever. Underground." He whispered the last word against her ear, nails digging into her skin, drawing blood.

Finally he dropped her, and immediately the brunette fell to the ground gasping for air and holding her hand to the cuts in her throat from where his nails hand sunk into the flesh. She had never been so terrified of anyone in her life and decided then and there that she either needed to stay with him or break things off. An affair was out of the question. 'Though if I break things off now he may just assume that I did so because I already was cheating…'

"God Mason what the fuck, way to abuse your girlfriend!" She shouted out catching the attention of some of the patrons in the restaurant as she stood to her feet and grabbed a few napkins in order to clean the blood from her neck.

"I call it keeping her in line."

"How eighteenth century of you." She spat back, uncertain if that were even the correct time period for when men controlled their wives. 'Who am I kidding, that was all of history. I'm sure he gets my fucking point. God how could I have ever been attracted to this ass? I mean I guess Tawni is kind of a bitch but gahh.'

"So, what did you and your friends have planned for tonight?" He asked glancing toward the door so quickly that she had no idea Sonny, Tawni, and Chad were standing at it by the time he glanced back toward her, so she had no idea how he could know that she had plans.

"What do you mean? I never said that I had plans with them tonight." Brown eyes glanced toward the clock and she realized that it was 6:30, and she did have plans with them. This worried her, though she thought it may be best if she missed the plans anyway after what had just happened between herself and her boyfriend.

"They are here. I presume to pick you up."

Quickly worried eyes moved toward the door and her heart started to race as Sonny rushed toward them. Oblivious to who the man was but luckily catching on, as did Tawni who crossed her arms over her chest and stared at the British man with angry and jealous eyes. Chad the only one unaware of who he was, all he could think about was how much he hated Tawni's new girl-"whatever."

"Hey there friends." Alex said with a forced smile as she laughed nervously, her voice heightening. Sonny and Tawni exchanged looks of confusion, before the blonde's blue eyes traveled to the wizard's throat. Seeing the blood she gasped and moved toward her worriedly.

"What happened?" She asked, but as pink manicured nails moved to touch her cut throat the brunette backed away, not missing the hurt in blue eyes at the movement.

"Nothing. I slipped, and fell." Alex said so sarcastically that even she wouldn't have believed it and usually she did not care enough that she believed anything. Glaring at Mason he looked away bashfully, almost as if what had happened moments earlier never happened. 'Wow, mood-swings much? Ass.'

Moving toward the group he smiled and introduced himself. "I am Mason, Alex's boyfriend and lover. It is nice to meet her friends, what all did you have planned tonight?"

'Boyfriend and lover… So then they have…' Tawni thought as her eyes fell to the floor and she tried to think of a way that she could get out of the night, all that it was going to do was hurt her. She listened as Sonny and Chad introduced themselves and then felt eyes on her. Glancing up the blonde diva forced a smile, which she usually did not have to do when talking about herself, and said. "I am Tawni Hart, tween superstar!" Her pride allowed her to ignore the ache in her heart as it always did. This was why she did not get close to people.

"The Tawni Hart, I have heard so much about you." He said with a glare toward his girlfriend.

"Really!" She asked excitedly as she said "I have been in a lot of magazines, or did you hear about the show—" Suddenly Sonny nudged her side and leant up to whisper in her ear. "I don't think that's where he has heard about you." Confusion filled her blue eyes before she realized what her best friend meant by the statement and her eyes again saddened and landed on the brunette who was still cleaning the blood from her neck. 'She's been talking about me that much…? Aw… If only—' "Oh… I see." She finished.

"Where were you all going tonight? My girlfriend failed to inform me that we would be going out with her friends." He said wrapping an arm around Alex's shoulders.

'Wow… controlling much… why the heck is she still with him, when she could be with me? I'm controlling sure, but in a cute way… or a sexy way according to her.' A blush covered Tawni's face as she thought about the previous night and how amazing it was to be that close to the brunette, she only hoped she would get another chance. But at least she would try and be her friend, she did not think she could let her go at this point. She had let her in too far. "Um…"

"I didn't tell you because I didn't invite you." She spat back at her boyfriend as she nudged his arm off of her shoulder.

Leaning down he whispered in her ear. "You are my girlfriend, act like it."

Rolling brown eyes she allowed him to wrap his arm around her shoulders before pleading with Sonny to tell him that he could not go with her eyes. She could not even look into Tawni's blue eyes for fear of what she may see there so she avoided them. All she had wanted all day was to go on this date. Even if she died tomorrow she would be happy holding those stupid manicured hands in her own tonight and kissing those chocolate lips and now she would not have the chance to do either.

"Well, we don't really have money for all five of us."

"I have money." He responded with a charming smile.

"Oh." Sonny said looking over to her blonde best friend whose eyes were still focused on the cuts on Alex's neck. It was growing obvious who had put them there and why she was so afraid to leave her boyfriend. "Well."

"Let him come." Tawni stated her voice low and sad. She did not want to get between this relationship, and she did not want the woman she was starting to care for deeply to get hurt by her controlling boyfriend. She could accept being her friend for now or forever, if Alex wanted to be in this relationship and if it was what was right.

"Huh?" Alex asked confused which earned a glare from her boyfriend. "I mean of course you should come sweetie." She quickly added in a sarcastic voice as she watched the sad smile that was obviously forced by the blonde diva.

"Are we gonna go or not because I'm in this movie and I don't wanna miss a second of chaddy-time!" Chad said, oblivious to everything that was going on.

Rolling her eyes the blonde reached over and grabbed her best friend's boyfriend. "We'll meet you guys in the car, come on Chaddy." Sonny knew that it must have been very hard on Tawni because her best friend would never choose to spend time with Chad if she did not have to, and for him to be her best option, yeah it was bad.

Innocent brown eyes looked toward the couple, she could not even find a smile. 'How could Alex hurt Tawni like this… and what is with her creepy controlling boyfriend? He's such a jerk-face!' Moving toward them she glared into brown eyes and the wizard felt her heart sink. She had again served to screw up something that could have been an amazing night. Now the night was going to be completely awkward and unbearable.

"Come on Honey, let's go." Mason smirked feeling proud.

'I hate you..' She thought before again shrugging his arm off of her shoulders and heading out of the substation toward the car, only stopping to take her apron off.

"Women." He said with a laugh in Sonny's direction before rushing after his girlfriend. Able to physically feel the glare on the back of his head from Tawni's best friend. She was upset and he had a feeling that he had been right about the affair. Tonight he would make the blonde feel as he felt, jealous, so jealous it drives her crazy.
