Misunderstood

Chapter 7

- You think something happened to the girl? – Lexi asked with a serious face as she heard her words.

- I don't know though. I really don't know but I don't have a good feeling about it. I think that subject is one of his demons and if you saw the way he stood when I talked about it, you would understand.

- Gosh girl, you are scaring me. Maybe they just broke up because they didn't work out! – Lexi said, trying not to think that bad of it.

- If that was what really happened then let me tell you that Liam really loved that girl with all his heart because it still messes with him.

- Now I am curious to know what happened!! – Confessed Lexi-

- I am too but I really don't wanna think about it because it makes my heart race as fuck. – Alex said, nodding a lot.

- Why? – Asked Lexi.

- Because the thought of him getting hurt is something that messes with me and the thought of him being hurt because of a girl messes with me even more. It has been some years and he is still like that and I don't know...I don't have a good feeling about it. – She said touching her chest, right over her heart, feeling something that she couldn't explain.

- You can't think the worse Alex. You have to think that they just broke up because it was not meant to be. – She said getting closer to her, holding her hand. – He is with you now.

- Lexi, he is not with me. After yesterday, yeah, we do have some chemistry but he doesn't like me or anything close. I just told you he is still not over a girl from his past! How could he be into me??

- You don't know that?? Maybe what he really needed was someone like you to show up in his life and help him get through his demons!

- Because all I want is to be his rebound girl. – Nodded Alex.

- You won't be any of that because you are a good girl and he will see that. He will fall for you.

- You wanna mark the wedding already?? Maybe I should start seeing a house and maybe think of a family, no?? – Alex asked her giggling.

- I would totally support that! – Answered Lexi back, laughing.

- We just met! There is no one falling in love with anyone okay?? Calm down your horses!!

- One day you will come to me and you know what you will say?? – Lexi asked her smiling, already knowing it. – "Oh Lexi, you were so right!! Liam and I fell in love and we are extremely happy now. We already have our future decided and we are thinking of starting a family!"

- Jesus girl! I'm 20!! I still have a lot to live, but if that happens, obviously you will be the first one to know!! – She said giggling as she looked at her.

- You know how right I am! – Lexi said with a cocky face but in a good way.

- Well, he wants to take me on another date. – Said Alex, blushing a lot. – But I don't wanna make any pressure on him though. I want him to go slow and feel comfortable while doing things.

- Does he?? For when?? Did you marked something with him?? Do you have his number?? – Lexi started to ask loads of questions, showing Alex how excited and happy she was.

- Hey, calm down! – Said Alex giggling. – No, I don't know for when and no I don't have his number but I did that on purpose.

- What?? – Nodded Lexi, confused but giggling. – What do you mean you did that on purpose?

- I wanna make sure we keep on meeting each other in here. I want to make sure he comes here to talk with me and if he had my number, it would be easier for him to talk with me.

- Uhh! That is damn smart! – Said Lexi liking her thought.

- So, at 4 pm he will be here, waiting for his friend and if he wants, he will come inside and talk with me. – She said giggling, knowing that probably was no friend and he was there only to spy on them.

- Yeah!! His friend that actually is called Alex! – Smirked Lexi, bumping into Alex's arm, messing with her. – Right??

- If it was me I would be really happy but now I just have to wait and see what will be his next move.

- And what more?? What happened more?? Did he take you home after dinner?? Did you kiss each other??

- Of course we kissed each other Lexi! – Said Alex, messing with her. - Who wouldn't kiss the other person right on the first date??

- You suck!! But did he take you home?? – Lexi asked, curious.

- He did take me home but nothing happened besides talking and getting to know each other. Stop making movies in your head!! – She said giggling. – It was just our first date!!

- The first of many, right?? – Nodded Lexi as she bumped into Alex's arm. – It was about time for you to get a man!!

- Lexi!! He is not my man! And besides, he must just want to be my friend. – She said blushing a lot but not putting herself into too many expectations.

- What? – Asked Lexi surprised with what she just heard. – Do you think that if he wanted to be only friends with you, he would take you on a date??

- Yeah!! Friends go on a date as well! – She said making it sound obvious.

- Gosh Alex, you are so damn naïve!! – Giggled Lexi. – We will talk in some time and you will see how many friends go on dates.

- And see that I am right!! – Answered Alex, messing with her.

- That I am the one right!! I know when I am right and I will be right in this!! – She said giggling. – My guts are never wrong, you should know that already!!

- Hum hum!! Let's see! – Alex said, putting her tongue out, messing with her, now seeing some people coming inside the Milkshake since it was already passed the time from the opening so it was time for them to start working and let the day pass. Even though it was being a pretty normal day for Alex, she couldn't wait for the clock to mark at 4 pm. That hour became special for her and that hour would mean something...it would mean that he would be there and he would talk with her...at least that was what she thought it would happen. However, it was not that what happened at all. All of Alex's thoughts were crushed in a second when the clocked marked 4 pm and no one was there... Liam was not there.
