Chapter 6
Graduation was approaching quickly, all Alex would talk about wanting to go to CAN-Am for training and would give Katherine looks for wanting to just attend college. Although that wasn't the whole truth. She would love to attend wrestling school, but her father had said she needed to agree to take college classes as well. Alex would get mad every time she tried to bring up the fact that they wouldn't be able to be together. "I'm trying to be realistic, Alex," Kate told him with a sigh. He just glared at her like she was an idiot. She glared before speaking up, "You know what Alex, when you're done playing these childish games, come find me," She stated and walked away angrily.
Alex rolled his eyes at his girlfriend, she was being ridiculous. He knew that their relationship could last. It had lasted through so much. But she wasn't even willing to try. "You know," He stated glancing towards Chris. "She's been saying she doesn't want to end up like Kimberly from the power rangers, and end up sending me a 'Dear John' letter," Chris looked at him confused.
"So what are you going to do?" He asked as Alex ran his hand over his face. Chris watched his friend, as he continued to sit there. "Well?" He asked as the minute-bell rang. Alex shrugged and followed his best friend to class. This was going to be a long day.
It was finally lunch time, Katie was thankful that the day was almost over. She sipped her water as Alex walked over and sat across from her with a glare on his face. "What?" She asked with a glare of her own. Alex sighed and took her hand in his.
"Please just hear me out," She sighed heavily and nodded. "It could work out, I've seen plenty of long distance relationships work out," She shook her head angrily and sighed.
"Do you ever listen to anything I say? Do you ever take my feelings into consideration when you make these speeches?" Katie Baker had heard enough. "I hate that you never listen. I hate that I'd be far away from you and we wouldn't be able to have real dates. And I hate that you assume everything will be just fine. Because you know what, every long distance relationship I know of, including a previous one of my own, didn't last more than three weeks. And I'll be damned if I give another guy a free chance to cheat without my knowledge. So I'm sorry but no. And you know what, since you don't seem to listen to a word I say, I'll end it now," She took a deep breath before speaking again. "We're through Alex Shelley. And I hope that I never have to put up with your stupidity ever again."
Alex watched in shock as Katie left him sitting there by himself. Chris walked over and sighed. "You okay?" Alex nodded as he felt himself get angry. Who was she to break up with him, and in front of the entire school, no less? He stood up and threw away the remainder of his lunch before heading out to the parking lot to his car. "You'll have to find a new ride home, Chris," Alex stated as he got in almost immediately. Chris let out a sigh and headed back toward the school. He couldn't help but feel horrible, if he hadn't made the bet with Alex, Alex would still be the same man whore he was at the beginning of the year, and at least somewhat happy.
Katie sat in the library quietly working on homework, she had been stupid to let Alex Shelley get that close to her. She had been stupid, and vowed that she would never let herself get that close to him again.
A/n: I apologize for the wait and for the shortness. I have been so busy, that it's been ridiculous. I've also been really tired and unmotivated. Sadly, the next update will most likely take awhile as well. Enjoy.
