7

I honestly didn't know how I got myself in this situation. I found myself sitting in the Starbucks at 6 in the evening thinking about Alex.

When I should have been doing my assignment. This one was nearly finished and I had until 12 tonight to get it done.

I'm pretty sure I'd finish it in the next hour but luckily for me Alex is what is on my mind instead.

Hate it completely.

Alex hasn't even tried to reach out to me not even a single text. He's watched my snapchat story though.

I missed his game last night being that the last time I saw him was a week ago. He won well his team did.

Joe was confused to why I wasn't there but I managed to come up with some lame excuse of having work to do.

I took out cassie for a tour around the city. We were out for the majority of the day. Dropping her off at Charlie's house was slightly tense.

Luckily Charlie was the one to open the door but in the back I could see Alex's figure. He was in the kitchen cooking.

I had to decline there offer for me to have dinner with them. I didn't want to just come when clearly he didn't want to see me. I wasn't going to force my way in im not that type of girl id rather just give him space.

The moment I stepped out of my house this morning I got a call from my dad. I really didn't expect his call since my parents rarely call me, too busy running their own lives.

Not like I could care anymore, the only times I really travel home is on the big holidays so that means I'll have to go home at Christmas.

He called to graciously telling me that mum had moved out to her friends house after they had a big fight. Cant say this is new information, I spent years in that house with them fighting nearly every week.

No wonder I wanted to move out so desperately.

Dad touched on the possibility of divorce, which did have me shocked at first . As much as they fought like cat and dog I really thought there was strong, so strong that they could always overcome everything they faced but turns out that's not the case.

So this is why im currently sulking in starbucks, not because alex isn't talking to me but because my parents could be getting a divorce. I don't really have the effort to talk to me my mum at the moment.

I knew I had to leave here soon, it was already 7 and it was pitch black outside. I said goodbye to the employees before exiting and heading out to one of the bustops. Hopefully the buses wont be so full now.

I was surprised to return home and find nobody in, there was normally at least one of my housemates in but from the note they left me it seemed as though they all went out.

I'm not even mad, I was desperate for a night in all to myself with a takeway for sure. I haven't had pizza in a long time.

After the guy dropped off my pizza I could finally settle into the couch and watch some documentary since it was the only thing that was on, well except for some sappy Christmas movies.

But considering the fact that my parents are splitting up it's probably not the best idea.

Finishing off the last slice, I woke up to a banging on the door. My eyes were so close to closing just then.

I shoved the blanket off my feet before making my way to the door. I could just about recognise two figures standing infront of me when I swung the door open.

Joe had my bestfriend in his arms as he looked at me with pleading eyes.

"what the hell remi" I squealed when I saw what she was wearing. Practically nothing. She popped her head up and gave me a funny look.

"joey tell me the truth, does she look angry," she said into Joe's ear, probably thinking she was whispering but in actual fact, I could hear everything clearly.

The look he gave me was honestly so funny I had to laugh. It was always interesting when Remi got drunk, I should know.

I moved out the way to let Joe in, I guided him into her room the best I could, she's going to kill me when she finds out that Joe was in here tomorrow. Remi probably wasn't expecting any boys going to go in her room hence the fucking mess all over her bed and floor.

"interesting" Joe mused as he spotted the pile of underwear on the bed. I thought about clearing that quickly but since he's already seen it whats the point.

"Alright big boy, out of here before she kills us both" I push Joe out of the room.

"oh, shit I left her shoes in the car could you grab them, I think I might make her a glass of water," he says already walking into our kitchen. He makes himself comfortable in the kitchen opening and closing random cupboards.

With a groan, I stomp my way back outside. Crossing my arms over my chest when I feel the cold breeze glide across my skin.

I grabbed her shoes quickly but before I could even close the door, the sound of a girl squealing caught my attention. Across the road was another student house. This girl was being carried inside. I knew who she was shes lived there for a year now.

What caught my attention was the familiar broad back of the guy carrying her. The girl started to kiss down Alex's neck as she let out loud moans.

Obvious or what. ]

Alex had his back to me so he never knew I saw them. I slammed the car door loudly completely pissed off. Jealousy washed over me when he stepped into the house with her in his arms, his foot coming to close the door again.

Mother fucker" I mumbled as I slid into my house again. Joe was watching me intently from the entrance, probably seeing the whole thing too.

"it's not what you think" he quickly interjects stepping closer to me. Was he really trying to tell me that? C'mon even i'm not that stupid.

"save it, close the door on your way out Joe Goodnight" I whisper the last words as I walk into my room, wanting to just close my eyes and finally sleep.
