Eve's POV
"Uhm , Alex your phone is ringing." He reached over for his phone. He slid the switch on the screen to answer.
"Hello ?" I couldn't hear Mike . But they were talking.
"I'm hanging out with Eve , what about you?"
"Yeah sure. Bye." Alex hung up .
"What'd he say?"
"He's gonna come over. He said he'd be here in about 10 minutes."
"Okay then . " Ten minutes later Mike came walking into Alex's room. He came over and sat next to me. He put his arm around me.
"Wow Alex , you got the prettiest girl over you're house." I layed my head on his shoulder . Alex just glared at us . He was such a cool guy and all , but I don't know why he had such an attitude with me and Mike together. Maybe he was jealous that he had a girlfriend now , and he doesn't. I should ask him when Mike isn't around. We sat in Alex's room and just talked . About stuff like senior year , what we're doing after school.
"Eve , what do you wanna be?"
"A WWE diva." Mike and Alex looked at me.
"That's coincidental. We wanna be WWE superstars." Alex said.
"Well that means we can stay together." I said to them.
"All the girls at your lunch table are gonna be WWE divas."I nodded and smiled. That would be so fun . We'll all be in WWE together. Thank god . Now , there wouldnt be too much tragedy when we graduated." I pulled out the piece of paper out of my purse with Alex's number on it. I memorized the number , and then I pulled my phone out and added him to my contacts as 'Alex'. I put the paper back in my purse , and I texted him.'Alex , it's Eve, wanted to ask you , are you okay? I see the way you've been looking at me and Mike today , please tell me if anything is wrong.' I touched SEND and put my phone down. About 5 seconds later Alex's phone went off. He picked it up and started texting . I waited , and waited for the reply.
'Nothing... i can't explain it , it's too complicated. Maybe I can try to explain myself in a few weeks,sorry.' I turned my phone screen off ,and put my phone down.
"What's wrong?" Mike whispered in my ear. I shook my head.
"Nothing. Uhm , I'm gonna go." I picked up my bag and my purse and put them over my shoulder.
"Want me to walk you home?"
"No . I live right up the street . Bye." I kissed Mike's cheek. I looked at Ale real quick , then I turned around and walked out the door.
"Are you leaving Eve?" Alex's mom wiped her hands with a hand towel and set it down.
"Yeah , I have some homework to catch up on."
"Ohh , awhh , okay want me to give you a ride home?"
"Sure." Mrs. Riley Put on some flip flops, and walked out the door. We got into the car and started driving to my house.
"Where do you live?"
"Very end of the street." She nodded. The road I lived on was a long road. So I lived at one end and Alex lived at the other.
"Alex talks about you all the time. He missed you so much while you were in Texas." I looked at her.
"What do you mean he always talks about me?"
"The past nine years. He's always talked about you , and how he missed you so much. And he was even texting me today . He said he couldn't believe you were back, and how beautiful you were." I widened my eyes.
"He said that?"
"He sure did." I turned the other way and looked out the window.
"This is my house." She pulled in the driveway.
"Is your mom home?" I nodded. "I'm gonna go talk to her." I nodded again. We got out of the car and I led her into the house. She walked up to my mom.
They hugged and started talking. I walked upstairs and set my bag down . I got a text from Maria . 'Hey Eve , we have danceline tryouts on thursday. If you wanna try out , come to practice tonight. We're meeting up at layla's house.' I texted back . 'Okay , I'll be there soon.' Layla lived next door to Alex .
I threw on some SOFFE shorts , a tank top and tennis shoes. I yelled to my mom I was going to Layla's. I walked out the door and started walking up the street. I was in front of Alex's house now . I looked over and saw Mike walking out the door , and he was talking to Alex. Alex looked at me and I put my head down and continued walking , I ran up the driveway and knocked on the door.
Alex's POV
"Yeah."
"Yeah , well I'm gonna go . See ya tomorrow." Mike walked down the porch steps , and started to walk home. I had saw Eve running over to Layla's house.
"Eve!" She stopped at the front door. She turned around and looked at me. The door opened and she turned to look . Layla smiled and hugged her. Then they took her in and shut the door. I turned around to walk to the steps , and walk up to my room . It was like ridiculous , day one of Eve being back , she's already got a boyfriend , and he's like in love with her already. I just have a bad feeling about Mike , he's my bestfriend , but I've always had a bad feeling about him. We'll just see how everything goes.
