I wanna be yours... -ALEX TURNER- <3

21. Misunderstandings

(Alex' pov)

"Alexa wtf!!"

I quickly pull away from our kiss.

I look away, and see Bella standing there.

Her eyes are watering and she turns around and leaves the pub, running.

"Bella wait!" I follow her.

But she's already gone.

I turn towards Alexa again.

"Why the hell would you kiss me?" I shake my head in full frustration.

"What do you mean?" Alexa looked guilty. "I thought there was a spark."

"Bella is my girlfriend Alexa!" I snap.

"What?! Why didn't you tell me?" She shakes her head.

"We didn't want to hurt you by breaking the ice that fast." I look away. "It's over isn't it?"

"Don't worry Al, I'll fix it!" She gently grabbed my arm. "I am so sorry."

"Don't blame yourself, you didn't know." I look her in the eyes.

"I just thought we still had a chance, but knowing you and Bella are together, it makes so much more sense." She smiled. "I am so happy for you two."

"Thank you Alexa." I smile aswell.

"Let me call her, I'll explain everything." Alexa got up and took her phone out of her pocket.

Alexa walked away to the bathroom, since it was a bit more quiet there.

I sat back on my barstool and lowered my head.

Bella is probably broken.

And it's my fault.

At least, that's was she would think.

It's a huge misunderstanding.

Alexa walked back to the bar.

"No answer... I am sorry." Alexa sighs.

"It's okay, I am gonna go home, she might be there." I look at Alexa.

"Of course. I'll try to call her again." Alexa smiled a bit.

"I am sorry for all of this." I sigh.

"Please, don't be. I am sorry." Alexa said.

"Are we cool?" I smile a bit.

"Yes of course... Now go get her." She chuckled.

"I'll text you!" I said as I walked towards the exit of the pub.

...

I never ran any faster in my life.

Bella needed to know that it was a misunderstanding. I would never cheat.

I arrived back home and opened the front door.

"Bella! Can we talk?" I shout, so she would hear me no matter what.

Nothing.

I walk towards the living room, and my eyes widen.

A picture frame with a photo of Bella and me was smashed on the floor. Glass was shattered and all over the floor.

Classy

"Bella... no, no, no!" I quickly walk towards the bedroom door and open it.

It was surprisingly empty. But a bit too empty.

Bella's closet door was opened, and there was nothing in there.

I checked the bathroom, and all of her belongings were gone.

My legs felt weak, and I slowly fell onto my knees. Tears started streaming down my cheeks.

She's gone...

...

After a couple minutes of sobbing on the bathroom floor, I heard a noise.

I quickly got up and fixed myself.

I walked towards the living room, the noise stopped.

Then all of a sudden, Bella stood there. Next to the front door.

She had the apartment key in her hand and looked at me. She looked broken and a complete mess.

"I won't be needing this anymore." She said sadly as she laid the key on the little dresser next to the front door.

"Bella.. don't... Let me explain it." I shake my head.

"YOU DON'T NEED TO EXPLAIN ANYTHING ALEX!" She snapped completely. "Wasn't it obvious enough?!"

"No you don't understand!" I try to say.

"Oh so now I am stupid?" She shakes her head.
"You are the one who decided to kiss his fucking ex girlfriend, who is now my friend."

"I DIDNT KISS HER BELLA!" I snap.

"YOU FUCKING DID, I HAVE WORKING EYES ALEX!" A tear falls on her cheeks.

"She. Kissed. Me! I DIDNT KISS HER BACK." I yell.

"THEN WHY WAS YOUR HAND ON HER FUCKING THIGH?" She shakes her head. "PLEASE EXPLAIN THAT TO ME."

Son of a-...

Shit, I did put my hand on Alexa's thigh.

Probably because I had drunk seven margaritas and almost fell over.

"Bella please, it's all a huge misunderstanding."
I calm down.

"No you don't get it... IT TOOK ME SO LONG ALEX." She cries. "It took me so long to fall in love with you again, and you just decided to sledgehammer the fuck out of us."

"It wasn't like that Bella, come on."

"You don't even know what this feels like." She sobbs. "Go fuck yourself."

She turned around and slammed the door.

I quickly walked up to the door and opened it. I followed her and I saw her walking down the dark street.

"Bella wait!" I shout.

"Don't tell me what to do!" She snapped at me while walking on the street.

I shake my head.

"BELLA WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Come back and let's talk it out!"

She looked back and gave me a middle finger.

"OKAY FINE!" I slam the door closed.

I can't believe her.

Why can't she trust me.

I pissed with her.

If she doesn't believe me, then we ain't got no trust anymore.

And a relationship without trust, is nothing.

Not that we still have a relationship I guess.

It's over.

I don't like this 🥲 but we needed some spice...
