Alex's POV
I couldn't sleep I was furious at everyone at the moment I've been lied to so many times and I honestly didn't expect this from Demi I still love her but I'm furious at her at the same time, I check the time and it was 12:30 am I decided to go downstairs and get something to drink to get my mind under control. As I walk downstairs I hear a piano playing in the distance and I knew Demi was awake too then I felt guilt and anger but why was I feeling guilt when she's the one that's been lying to me this entire time I put my drink down and decided to fall asleep and successfully I finally did.
Demi's POV
I couldn't stop crying I felt so much guilt that I hid these things from Alex I should've told her about Wilmer and I ever being together or how our relationship is now I couldn't really sleep my eyes were puffy from all the crying and my mind kept racing so I decided to play my piano for a bit to get my mind off things. As I'm playing I see Alex's bedroom light still on and I knew she was awake too I wanted to go over there and just hold her in my arms and explain everything but I know that right now isn't the best time for her...especially me.
Alex's POV
I wake up to the sound of my phone ringing I groan and I grab my home hoping it was Jennifer on some news about Jeremy but it wasn't Jennifer it was Wilmer
To:Alex
From:Wilmer
"Hey Alex I'll be picking you up from your house for our ride along session and also for you to go to the police station and see how it's like to work in law see you in a hour.
I forgot that Wilmer was driving me around today in his squad car I don't think he knows that I know about him and Demi having a kid and I know that for me it's going to be awkward but I had a feeling that today all hell was about to break lose.
1 hour later
Still Alex's POV
I get ready and I'm already dreading this feeling so much I grab my phone and I hear someone honking outside and I knew it was Wilmer I felt the anger inside of me built up again and I can feel my fist clenching as I opened the door I walked down the porch steps and I look over at Demi's house I look back at Wilmer's car and I shook my head slightly and got inside and he asks me
"Is Everything okay Alex.?"
"Does it look like I'm okay I just found out that you and my fiancé fucked and had a kid awhile back and lied to me about it no I'm not okay I'm pissed."
"I'm fine"I said
"Are you sure you seem a little off."
"Oh my god just stop asking questions when I say I'm fine it's a sign for you to drop it ,not ask anymore damn questions do you know how hard it is to keep myself from breaking everything you have no idea the pain I'm feeling."
"I'm fine can we please just drop it." I said
"Okay sure no problem." he said
I knew that today wasn't going to be easy hiding what I'm feeling every second I was in that car felt like hours going by I just wanted this day to be over I can feel Wilmer staring at me like if I was about to explode this isn't going to be easy.
Wilmer's POV
Alex seemed off today like if she was about to cry or something she keeps looking at her phone and back at the road and down again like if she was waiting for someone to call her or something then I thought to myself
"Did Demi and Alex get into a fight or something or what.?"
I pulled over to Starbucks cause I knew it was Alex's and I favorite place to go I park the car and get out and I notice Alex is still staring at the floor not realizing that the car stopped I open the door for her and she looks like she's frozen
"Alex..." I said
"What.?" she said still staring at her phone
"We're here are you okay.?" I said
"Yeah sorry I was j-...just thinking about some stuff." she said
"Oh okay well let's go inside." I said
We walk into Starbucks and I ask Alex to go sit down while I order our usual drinks as I'm ordering I text Demi to see if everything's okay
To:Demi
From: Wilmer
"Hey something's up with Alex did you two get into a fight or something.?"
I put my phone back in my pocket when I hear our order is ready I walk back to Alex and say
"Do you want something to eat are you hungry.?"
"No I'm not hungry at all I'm good." she says
"Alex are you okay.?" she looks at me and I see the hurt in her eyes she looks angry like if she just wants to shout
"I'm fine can we just go please." she said
"Sure no problem." I said
We walk back and get into my squad car and she gets in I see her playing with her phone and she looks like she's about to break any minute then I hear my phone ring and it was Demi
Demi's POV
I wake up on my couch and I wipe my eyes I look in the mirror and my eyes look a little swollen not as much as last night I walk over to the kitchen and fix myself some breakfast I hear my phone vibrate and I run towards it hoping it was Alex but it wasn't it was Wilmer I look at his text and my heart dropped he was with Alex I forgot that they had a ride along today I quickly called Wilmer and he answered
Wilmer's POV
"Hello.?"
"You're with..Alex" Demi said
"Yeah we just stopped by at Starbucks why.? What's wrong.?"
"Wilmer she knows about...our son she knows about Jeremy." she said I can hear her voice cracking
"What do you mean she knows....how.?!" I said forgetting that she was right next to me
"I told her..." she said
"I'll see you in a bit right now isn't the best time to talk." I said in shock
"Wilmer tell her I love her and that I'm sorry I didn't tell her sooner." she said
"I..I will." I said
I hang up and I notice Alex she looked at me with disbelief and anger I keep looking straight ahead and I say
"You know don't you."
she scoffs and says
"That I know what? that you and my fiancé fucked and had a kid and oh hey here's my favorite part that the both of you lied to me about it." she spat
"We were young and we were both drunk and she was my best friend and she still is Alex I'm sorry we didn't tell you this but-" I managed to say before she cut me off
"Tell me..." she said
"What." I said
"Do you love her....Are you in love with her.?"
I pause for a second I was in love with her and I still am but she's not into me I notice Alex getting upset and the tears swelling in her eyes I couldn't get a answer out.
Alex's POV
"Do you love her.....Are you in love with her.?" I said to him
he's quite for a second and he doesn't respond
"Wilmer answer me do you love her.?!" I said
he looks down and bites his lip and I knew my answer
"Let me out..." I said with my teeth clenched together
"Alex wait.." Wilmer said
"Let me the fuck out! I've had enough of this!" I yelled
I tried to open the door but it was locked I noticed that we were parked right outside of my house I look at Wilmer and I feel the tears falling down from my eyes
"Wilmer for the last fucking time let me out I'm done dealing with all the lies and all the fucking pain I'm being put through!" I said
"Alex..I-I'm sorry" he said
"Save it I'm fucking done!" I said
He finally unlocks the door and I jump out I hear a door close in the distance and I see Demi coming out of her house I walk faster towards my door and I hear Wilmer say
"Alex stop.!" Wilmer shouted
"Leave me the fuck alone!"
"Alex please!" I hear Demi shout
"Both of you back the fuck off!" I said
Demi jumps in front of me holding me from my wrists I try to break out of her grip but she's too strong for me
"Alex please talk to me...please just tell me do you still love me.?." Demi said
"I-I still do." I whispered
I break out of her grip and run towards my door and I slam it shut before they had the chance to come in
"Alex Please..." I hear Demi say
"Alex let us explain." Wilmer said
"You've done enough just leave me alone I can't handle anymore lies I just need time just fucking leave me alone....please!" I said
I run upstairs to my room and I jump into my bed crying my eyes out I never felt this much pain in my entire life this hurt more than any pain I ever felt I still love Demi but I need sometime to let all of this sink in. I wipe the tears from my eyes and head downstairs I walk to the kitchen and I look over to the doorway and I see a vanilla cream folder on the floor I walk over and pick it up and there's a note attached to it
"Here's everything on Jeremy that you need to know it wasn't hard finding him hope you can bring him back to Demi I know you can-Jen."
I forgot that I've been looking for Jeremy after all the lies and fighting made me forget about this baby boy who's missing his parents I open the file and I see his picture he was beautiful he looked exactly like Demi except his hair he had Wilmer's hair but his eyes looked exactly like Demi's he was perfect just like his mom. I read some of the information and I found out he was born on October 4th 2012 he's two years old right now and as I kept reading I realized he hasn't been adopted yet he's staying at a foster home and this one is filled with nuns
"Aw great it had to be one filled with nuns." I said to myself
I put the file down and I grab a soda from the fridge to calm me down as I set the soda on the table I see Wilmer holding onto Demi and kissing her forehead while sitting on her front porch. I felt the anger built up again I couldn't handle this anymore I put the soda down and said to myself
"I need something more stronger than soda to help me deal with this pain."
I knew exactly what I needed I grab my keys and I grab my phone and jacket and walk out the front door.
Demi's POV
After Alex went inside her house I cried on her doorstep Wilmer holds onto me and helps me up and he walks me to my front porch I sob into his shoulder and he says
"Demi it's okay."
"No it's not Wilmer I-I hurt her and she's in pain I love her so much I don't want to keep hurting her!" I said
"Demi you're not hurting her okay she just needs time to let this sink in it'll all be okay I promise."
"What if she finds someone else Wilmer I lost her once I can't lose her again!" I said
"She's not going anywhere Demi she still loves you because she wouldn't be acting like this if she didn't care about you she's still wearing her engagement ring and her necklace if she didn't love you anymore she would have taken them off but she still wears them because she truly loves you." he said
He was right she still was wearing her ring and her necklace she still cares I hug Wilmer and thank him for being there he holds onto me and kisses my forehead and he asks me something I thought he would never say
"Do you think if we never gave him up for adoption do you think we would've been a family.?"
I couldn't believe what he just told me I mean I have thought about it but it would have never worked.
"Wilmer we both know that would never have worked I mean you know I'm lesbian and it'll always be that way that night we were drunk and we didn't know what we were doing and to be honest I miss Jeremy and I know I won't see him ever but if I do I would want you to be apart of his life but we both know that we might never see him." I said
"I understand Demi and of course I'll be there for him if he ever came back into our lives."
we smile and he kisses my forehead and we hug each other then we hear a car door slam and we look and see Alex get into her car and back out of her driveway Wilmer runs down the steps of my front porch to try to catch her but she turns her car and speeds down the street.
"Dammit!" Wilmer says
"Wilmer we need to follow her god knows what she'll get into when she's in this state of mind." I said
"I agree c'mon lets go before she get's too far." he says
Alex's POV
I speed off when I see Wilmer running towards my car I needed something other than soda to get my mind of off things I knew exactly where to go somewhere I thought I would never go again but right now I needed to get this off my chest to let it go.
