lea | alec

god, i miss you.

someone's bored.

i am. what's that got to do with that?

what's up?

someone's being extremely moody today.

do you want me to drop by with chocolates and pizza?

you know i wouldn't say no.

i'm taking the next train to new york.

alec, stop joking.

is something wrong?

no.

..okay.

now you're ignoring me.

what are we doing, alec?

..texting each other?

i don't understand why you always have to prove that you're smart. you're smart, that's a well-established fact.

is that supposed to be a compliment?

fuck it. tell me what's wrong.

it's about connor.

what about him?

i don't know. it's just that lately i feel like real relationships don't exist anymore.

are you doubting what we have?

i don't know :(

what's that supposed to mean?

did connor do something to you?

i don't want to talk about it.

what the hell did that bastard do? are you okay, lea?

which leg of his do you want me to break?

that's violent but god, you're sexy when you're protective.

there's my girl, all honest ;)

jahdhshbs

..that wasn't english.

i know. that's what you make me do.

i can make you do plenty other things if you want me to, babe ;)

i swear talking to you is everything that i need right now.

okay, now tell me what happened.

i don't want to talk to about it, alec.

did he hurt you?

well, i used to date him so i guess heartbreak hurts.

you know what i mean.

..kind of?

fuck.

i'm on my way.

hey, you don't have to. i'm fine right now.

the two of us know what 'i'm fine' means.

it's unreal for someone to be this smart. but really, i'm fine.

why didn't you tell this to me earlier?

i told you i didn't want to talk about it.

so you were planning on hiding it from me?

i respect your privacy but i don't want a communication gap between us. people talk things out, lea.

alec, i just.. i wasn't so sure. i don't think i'm sure anymore.

what aren't you so sure about?

us.

it's only been two days since we confessed.

i know. maybe i'm being a drama queen but i can't help.

you think i might hurt you like he did?

i don't know what to answer to that.

..lea.

i know, alec. i'm being dramatic. i don't even bother denying it. but what connor and i had was real. look where we are right now.

i hate what you're doing to me.

you seriously think i would hurt you?

listen, lea. i've never met anyone like you. i've never known anyone like you. you're the kindest person i've ever known and there's a reason i confessed too soon even when i knew we were going fast.

i wanted to make sure you can count on me no matter what. i want to be there for you, lea. and that means i'll protect you no matter what. i'll love you no matter what.

you really have to stop saying these things to me. my expectation levels for men have increased a lot more.

but baby, you already have me ;)

okay. i trust you.

i'm not sure if i make you feel safe but you make me feel safe, lea. i want to make you feel safe.

i'm sorry. i shouldn't have hidden it from you.

shit, i never asked. are you okay?

yes, i am. you don't have to worry about me :)

you're everything i'll ever worry about.

i swear. that mouth of yours.

someone's dreaming about my mouth.

i am.

where are you now?

the train station.

you told me you have an exam tomorrow.

i do. but you're more important.

you're very romantic, alec but i'm really fine right now. as you said, i'm a strong woman who can take care of myself ;)

now go home and read. that's more important.

i can't. knowing that you've just been hurt makes me want to punch his teeth out.

you have plenty of time to punch his teeth out, haha.

i'm offended you don't want to see me.

drama queen.

are you really fine, lea?

yes, i am.

i trust you. only because i know you're strong.

thank you, alec.

now go back home.

i hate how you always behave like the older one in the two of us.

..because i already am?

we never talked about it, did we? didn't it ever bother you?

you're more matured than older guys i've known so age is just a number.

and they say love is blind, after all ;)
