Paralysed By Choices ✔️

Chapter four: I Guess It Broke Your Ego A Little, Huh?

I saw the same face that I saw three years ago. He hadn't changed. He still had his black hair, he hadn't put on any weight and he glared at me exactly like he did at the funeral. I felt a shiver run up my spine and I just realized that I kissed Spencer's friend who knew everything.

Noah didn't know what to do either. He stared at Spencer and scratched the back of his neck, knowing that he definitely shouldn't have kissed me. And I shouldn't have kissed him back. "Uh, nothing." Noah finally answered, his eyes meeting Spencer's who didn't look too happy.

"It didn't look like nothing," Spencer growled, his eyes staring at me like I was the devil.

I wanted to quickly pack up my things and leave but I couldn't find it in me to move my feet. I was still in so much shock from seeing the one person who really hated my guts. "We were just boxing, I swear I had no idea it was her."

"Right," Spencer muttered and then turned his attention to me, "you haven't changed."

I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms in annoyance. "You'd be surprised." I said blankly, not having a care in the world for Spencer right now. He was a jerk and he blamed me when it wasn't in my control.

"I heard you were a high class bitch after Jess died," Spencer snickered, "but I didn't believe it at first but seeing you fight Noah like that, I can."

I balled my hands up in a fist, getting really annoyed with Spencer's comments. "I guess you haven't moved on then."

Before Spencer opened his mouth, Noah cut in. "Hey, let's just all be friends here." I snapped my head towards him and glared at Noah as Spencer did. I realised that I wouldn't win this argument with Spencer, instead I grabbed my things and walked straight past both of them without a second glance.

As I left, I could hear Spencer's protests in the background towards Noah and I rolled my eyes and tried to forget that ever happened. Kissing Noah was a big mistake and I didn't intend to do it again.

Noah.

"You serously kissed her!" Spencer yelled after Alexis just left and I seriously didn't know what his problem was with her. She was an amazing fighter and I liked her sarcastic remarks that she threw at me.

I sighed and took a seat on the bench that outlooked the blue mat that me and Aleixs just fought on. "Yes, I did," I stated, "I like her. She's pretty cool."

Spencer grunted and stood in front of me, blocking my view. "Yeah and that girl you like watched my girlfriend die and did nothing to stop it."

I wanted to hear Alexis's point of view of this whole Jess thing. "It was three years ago." I said blankly, thinking of Alexis again and how she beat my ass to the ground.

"Yes and that's three years without the girl I fell in love with." He told me sadly while sitting next to me, looking down at the ground.

When I first met him, Spencer was a wreak and a complete mess. I became friends with him in biology and we had a few things in common. He soon told me about his girlfriend and how she got murdered with her best friend by her side. I saw that story on the news and that was when he told me all about Alexis Archer.

"You know she didn't kill her, mate," I tried to reassure him that it wasn't Alexis's fault, "she was just there."

Spencer ignored my last comment. "You should stay away from her, Noah."

I frowned and completely disagreed. "Why?"

Spencer's hands balled into fists and I shut my mouth as I was completely wrong in his eyes. "Because if it wasn't for her stupid, scared ways then Jess's heart would still be beating."
