But enjoy this chapter. I don't own the characters just the plot. Oh, there is alot of Nalex in this chapter.


Chapter 14:
Alex
I had stood there crying into Nate's chest for about half an hour. I didn't know I had that many tears. It surprised me. I could not believe that Shane would do that to me. He really hid the fact that he was cheating for a long time. And to think he was so worried about me cheating on him while he was cheating on me. Ugh, I hate hypocrites.

I finally stopped crying or at least I tried to. I pulled out of Nate's hug while wiping away my tears but they just kept on falling. I never actually thought that Shane and I would actually break up, well I knew we would someday but I never thought that he would cheat on me. I looked over at Nate who hadn't said a word to me for about a half hour. He was such a good friend. He was the only one that went after me and actually cared. It just really sucks that he is Shane's cousin. I also noticed that his shirt was soaked. Wow, did I cry that much. I thought to myself.

"Sorry about your shirt." I said in embarrassment as he looked down and saw that it was soaked.

"Oh, it okay I have an extra shirt in my gym locker. Though I don't think the eyeliner and mascara will come out." Nate said trying to get me to laugh.

"Yeah, sorry about that." I said still looking down. "So why did you come after me, I mean I basically just ruined your cousins life, well his social life. And most of the school hates him because of me."

"He kinda deserved it. He brought this all onto himself." Nate said leaning against the locker. "So whose locker am I leaning on? I really have no idea whose lockers are over here except for yours."

"Oh, that one is Shane's. The one on the other side of mine is Hannah's and Tess's is right beside Hannah's." I told him sitting beside my locker where all my pictures were all over the floor ripped into shreds.

"Oh, well, you probably want to get away from Shane don't you?" Nate asked. I really had no idea where he was going with all of this.

"Well yeah. Wouldn't you like to get away from your cheating ex?" I said still not really getting where he was going with this.

"Well how about you move all your stuff into my locker. It all the way across the school from Shane." Nate told me. I finally got what he was talking about.

"Okay sure. I'll move all my stuff tomorrow before English." I said smiling at him.

"Okay, now, we should get to class or would you rather just skip the rest of classes." Nate said as he helped me up.

"Personally I would rather skip the rest of the day. I mean I could so get away with it after what happened today." I said getting up and fixing my skirt and shirt. "But can I go fix my makeup first. I kinda ruined it by crying. And you should go change shirts." I said laughing a little bit before grabbing all my bags and heading to the bathroom by the locker rooms.

"Okay, I'll meet you outside the girls bathroom okay. Try not to take an eternity okay." Nate said laughing.

"No promises." I said laughing before walking into the bathroom to fix my make up. I looked in the mirror and I scared myself. I looked like a raccoon. Oh, God. I was looking like this in front of Nate. This is so perfect. Ugh, where the hell is my eyeliner and mascara. I thought digging through my make-up bag. Oh, there it is. I though pulling them both out of the bottom of the bag.

I fixed my make-up and then walked out of the bathroom where Nate was waiting for me. "What took you so long? I have been waiting out here for about ten minutes." Nate said as we started walking out of the back entrance to the school.

"Sorry, I couldn't find my eyeliner and mascara. Plus, I had to take all the other make-up off first I mean I looked like a raccoon. Why didn't you tell me?" I asked him while walking out the door towards his car.

"You look cute as a raccoon plus I didn't want you to freak out in the middle of the hallway." Nate said as we got in the car. "So where do you wanna go first?" Nate asked as he started the car and drove out of the parking lot.

"Um, how about we stop and get something to eat. I kinda skipped lunch." I said kinda laughing.

"So sit down or drive thru?" Nate asked driving and trying to find a good radio station at the same time.

"Um, its really up to you I don't care as long as I get to eat." I said laughing. "How about I find a radio station while you drive so we don't get in a wreck." I told him laughing a little bit.

"Fine, I was trying to find a good station. Unless you would rather listen to a CD." Nate said finally focusing on driving. "Oh, and we are going to Fazolis (a/n: Its an Italian restaurant that my family goes to all the time)"

"I love it their. They have the best pasta in the world." I said remembering the last time I was their with Shane, Hannah, and Tess. "So what CD do you want me to get?" I asked looking through the billions of CD's in his car.

"Um, just turn the radio on. I don't really care what we listen to as long as it isn't country." Nate said trying to think of a good radio station. "Just put it on 100.5. That's the station I normally listen to.(a/n: it's the local radio station where I live.)"

"Okay, I listen to that station sometimes but I normally just listen to my ipod." I said turning it to that station. The song You Found Me by The Fray was on. "Aww, I love this song." I said before I started to sing along like I always do when I'm in the car. "Lost and insecure. You found me you found me lying on the floor. Surrounded, surrounded. Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late. You found me You found me." I sang before realizing that Nate was staring at me. "What?"

"You have a great voice. Why don't you sing?" Nate said in amazement.

"Well, I was going to do stuff but Shane was always saying 'No don't doing anything like that will ruin your rep and mine.' Ugh, I really hate your cousin right now." I said sinking into the back of the seat and folding my arms. I was mad. Just mentioning Shane makes me so mad.

We finally got to Fazolis after about ten minutes of driving. We got in and ordered our food and then walked over to a booth. My baked spaghetti and his pizza came after about ten minutes and since there was really no one there they came every five minutes and asked us if we needed any breadsticks. It was nice to have a really good lunch with a friend. Shane never did anything like this for me. He would always tell me to go get him stuff at lunch not him taking me anywhere.

"That was the best baked spaghetti I have had in a long time. How was your pizza?" I asked as we walked out of the restaurant and to his car.

"It was so good. I always loved coming here when I would come and visit. They would always ask me where I wanted to go and Fazolis was the only place I would want to go." Nate said as we got into the car. "Do you want to go to your house or mine?" Nate asked as he pulled out of the parking lot.

"Um, lets go to yours. We can watch movies in your room for while and then you can play me a couple of your songs." I told him as he drove toward his house.

"Okay, we will watch the movies but no promises on the songs." Nate said as we drove to his house. It was a good twenty minute drive back to where he lived.

"Okay, so what movie are we going to watch?" I asked as we were driving. It seemed like the drive was going so fast.

"Um, what movie do you want to watch cause you know that we have it at the house." Nate said as we pulled onto his street.

"I'll pick once we get inside." I said as he pulled into his driveway. "Why does it seem that the twenty minute drive seem like it went by really fast?" I said as we got out of his car.

"Maybe its because I drive fast. I don't know." Nate said getting his backpack and mine.

"Nate you didn't have to get mine. I could have gotten it myself." I said as we walked into his house.

"I wanted to. So lets go up to my room and put our stuff away and then we can come back down and pick out a movie to watch." Nate said as he put the key into the door and started walking up to his room.

"Okay, so I was thinking that we watch The Notebook. I love that movie and I haven't watched it in so long." I told him as we got into his room.

"Okay, I'll go downstairs and get it you just make yourself comfortable." Nate said before leaving the room.

So I walked around his room just looking around. I had only been in here once before and that was a while ago. I had only been towards the middle of his room then. I noticed that he had his laptop, guitar, and a notebook laying on his bed. Since we were most likely going to watch the movie on his bed we would have to move all of this stuff.

I put his laptop on his desk and I moved his guitar to beside the desk. I put the notebook on his nightstand but it fell off. I went over to pick it up but when it had fallen it opened up to a song. At the top it said, DEDICATED TO ALEX RUSSO. As soon as I saw that I closed it really fast. If he wanted me to see it he would show it to me. So I quickly put the notebook on the nightstand and sat on the edge of his bed waiting for him.

He came up with the movie after like five minutes. He noticed that I had moved his stuff but he didn't say anything about it. "So are you ready to watch the movie?" Nate asked as he walked over to his TV and DVD player.

"Yeah, can we watch it with the lights off. I love watching movies like that." I said still sitting on his bed.

"Sure." Nate said as he put the movie in and walked over to his light switch and turned it off. Then he came over and sat on his bed next to me.

I was feeling lazy so I layed down on his bed. He didn't seem to mind. He actually layed down next to me. After about ten minutes into the movie I started getting cold. "Nate, why is your room so cold?" I said snuggling next to him to keep myself warm.

"Sorry about that. I always have my room kinda cold. Do you want me to get you a blanket?" Nate asked getting ready to get up.

"No, just being close to you is getting me a little bit warmer." I told him focusing on the movie. I saw out of the corner of my eye that he was smiling. So I got even closer to him.

After about an hour into the movie I fell asleep. I woke up about two or three hours later and I found my head on Nate's chest and his arm around me in a hug. He was asleep also so I just snuggled closer to him. Since it was Friday I knew my parents wouldn't really care when I got home. Plus I wanted to spend as much time with Nate as possible. I had fallen for him, hard. I went back to sleep with my head on his chest and being as close to him as possible. I loved being close like this it made me feel so safe. I had never felt like this around Shane. I finally fell asleep with a smile on my face and myself close to Nate. I loved it.


Aww. I loved writing the ending. It was so cute. So there will be only like one or two chapters left until this story is ending. :'(. I loved writing this story so much and its really the only story that i have actually finished. Well except for my little song fiction that was kinda sucky. But anyways Please Review. I love reading them. And don't forget that i will be starting a new story soon.
