Ellie's P.O.V.:
Alex drove us to an abandoned building, outside town. We got out of the car and started walking towards the door. "You don't talk to anyone unless I am there, understood?" I heard Alex. I nodded and kept on walking. Alex and Xavier were right next to me so I didn't really feel scared.
Well at least that's what I said before we entered. After Alex punched in the password the door opened we walked in. The building on the inside didn't look that old and abandoned. It looked exactly the opposite. Wooden floors and grey walls covered the room that looked like the receptions in the hotels.
"Alex, Xavier." a woman, in her mid twenties and and greeted both the guys. She had dark brown hair and green eyes. And then her gaze fell on me. "And who is that?" she asked. "That's Ellie. She's our friend." Xavier said. "She's pretty. Maybe I'll like her." she smirked and I gave her a small smile.
"Anyways, both of you are on training duty today. Go." she said and we left. We got into an elevator, and Alex pressed the +1 button. "Can you please stop being mad at me?" I quietly asked. "I'm not. It's just that the less you know, the better." he simply said. "Okay." I answered.
The elevator doors opened and we walked into a huge room that was full of people, mostly young ones. They were fighting, as in martial arts and kick boxing. Let me tell you that it does not look good. Most of them are bleeding or had bruises. "Now you sit there and do nothing. Okay?" Alex said as I sat on an empty bench.
I nodded but didn't say anything due to the fact that both of the guys took off their shirts and me being the hormonal teenage girl, I had to drool. "See something you like?" I jumped up in surprise when I heard Alex whisper in my ear. "No." I said but I knew that my face gave it all way. He just smirked and ruffled my hair, making me frown. "Don't do that." I said.
Alex and Xavier started training the other guys in the room and after I watched them for a while, I got bored and started texting my friends. The elevator binged but I didn't bother to look up. "And who is this?" I froze when I heard a man's voice, which was probably directed to me. I turned up to look at a mad in his late thirties, with cold looking green eyes, resembling to the ones of the girl I met at the entrance. He had dark hair and wore a suit. He looked strict and scary.
"She's with me." I heard Alex say, stepping in front of me. "Hmm... So I Gus's that she is with you too Xavier?" I heard the man say. "Yes." Xavier answered. "This training class is over. Xavier, take the young lady back at her house. I'll be expecting you tomorrow, Alex I want to have a talk with you." the man said and I could feel my heart race. Was Alex in trouble because I couldn't listen?
And now I was driving back home with Xavier. None of us has said a word since then. "Xavier?" my voice was barely a whisper. "Yeah?" he looked at me for a brief moment before looking back at the road. "Is Alex in trouble?" I asked. The question was killing me. "Honestly Ellie...I don't know. We just have to wait for him to come back." he sighed and I rested my head on the window, looking outside.
Xavier left me at my house and made me promise that I would call him as soon as Alex came home. I went upstairs and fell on my bed. All I could do now was wait for Alex. But after half an hour I was really tired and fell asleep.
When I woke up it was a little after 4. I rubbed my eyes and got up. I changed into a pair of grey leggings and a black tank top. I put on some socks and went inside Alex's bedroom. His room looked empty. So I went downstairs and was greeted with a picture that warmed my heart. Alex was laying on his side on the couch, sleeping. I smiled at the image and walked over to him quietly. I also texted Xavier that Alex was back.
I kneeled down in front of him and kissed his cheek. He stirred and opened his eyes. "Hey..." he said. "Hey. Why didn't you wake me up when you came?" I asked and ran my fingers through his hair. "I was exhausted so I fell asleep." he said. "Alex are you in trouble?" I asked and he looked at me confused for a second before his eyes showed realisation. "No Ellie. I'm not in trouble." he sat up.
But I didn't believe him. Not yet. "Then why did he call you to his office?" I asked. "Because he wanted to know about you. Everything is fine now." he answered and I breathed in relief.
Then there was a small silence before my stomach growled. Alex chuckled and got up. "Come on. I'll make us something to eat." he got up and pulled me up too. "I'll go. You get some rest." I said and went towards the kitchen.
However, remembering that I wasn't in my kitchen I didn't know what was where. I frowned my eyebrows and ran a hand through my hair. I heard Alex snicker behind me. "With this pace I don't think we'll be eating anything soon." he smirked and came closer. I stuck out my tongue at him.
After Alex explained where what was, I decided to make pasta. I took out all the necessary ingredients and a pot. I started making the pasta, with Alex sitting on the kitchen table, reading some stupid jokes from his phone. "Okay that one was not funny." I said. "But when I read it you were chuckling which means you are lying." he came behind me and turns me around before wrapping his arms around my lower back and picking me up.
"I'm not lying." I giggled and just looked into his eyes. He leaned in and moved his lips against mine and I, of course kissed him back. We pulled away, breathless and I rested my forehead against his. "If we don't pull away now, I'm going to burn the food." I said. "We'll continue later then." he kissed my nose and let me go. I turned back to cooking with a small smile on my face.
The food was ready and we decided to eat on his bedroom. We carried the plates upstairs and I sat on his desk swirly chair while he sat on his bed. "I didn't get food poisoning." Alex exclaimed as he ate some pasta. "Haha. Very funny. Just accept the fact that I am an amazing cook." I mocked him. "Never!" he yelled making me laugh.
After we finished eating, we put the dishes away and sat on his bed, talking. "Oh and tomorrow my cousin is coming so she can plan some things for her wedding, so no sneaking in in my house." I said. "Or you just lock your door whenever you are in." Alex said and crashed our lips together. We kissed for some minutes until my phone started ringing.
"Hello?" I answered a little breathless. "Hey girl. We're going to the mall. Are you in?" I heard Danielle's chirpy voice. "Sure. What time?" I asked while trying to stop Alex from kissing my neck and I was kinda failing. "In half an hour." she replied. I almost squealed in surprise when Alex bit my neck but held it down. "Yeah okay. See you then." I blurted and hung up.
"You are an idiot." I pushed Alex off of me and got up. "Oh don't tell me you're mad." he got up too. "No but I'm meeting the girls in half an hour so I have to get ready." I said. "Don't go." he whined and wrapped his arms around my waist. "I have to. I'll see you when I come back." I gave him a peck on the lips and got out of his hold.
I went to my bedroom and put on the same clothes I had wore earlier in the morning. My make up was fine, so I just brushed my hair a little, grabbed my bag and got out of my house. I locked the door and went to my car. I drove to the mall and found Emma waiting for us.
"Finally someone came." she said and hugged me. I hugged her back and chuckled. "Well you came early." I said. After Danielle and Jessica came, we went inside, we walked around and then ate dinner. We took tons of pictures and had some embarrassing moments. (for example me and Jessica laughing so hard that everyone was looking at us.)
I was back at 11 and after calling my parents and going through my social media (and uploading photos) I went to sleep. But before that I texted Alex goodnight.
A.N. It's 1:15 in the morning and I'm super tired.
Ready to sleep for the next 10 hours 😂
