Chapter Eight
The Same Day

Andy's POV

I smiled at Alex as we walked inside the coffee shop. We sat at the back of the shop in the corner so that no one would see us. The waitress came and gave us our coffee's and fudge slices. I waited until she'd walked away to speak to Alex.

"Alex? What happened to your face?" I asked as I noticed the swelling on Alex's face. My fingers touching her cheek causing her to flinch at my touch.

"Alex who did this to you?"

Alex just looked away as she took a sip of her coffee.

"Alex please tell me," I whispered.

Alex sighed.

"P-Phil did it," Alex whispered back.

I frowned. "Phil? Who's Phil?" I asked confused.

"M-My step dad."

My eyes widened.

"H-He did this to you?"

Alex just nodded her head. My heart felt like it was breaking.

"Stay with me then," I said without questioning it.

Alex's head snapped up as she looked at me with those serious deep blue eyes. Her red, plush lips agap.

"B-But I hardly know you. We hardly know each other," Alex said.

"I don't care Alex. I don't want you in a house like that."

She just sighed.

"Thanks for the coffee but no. Just don't worry about it Andy," Alex said as she stood up. I stood up with her.

"At least let me convince you to stay with me then," I said.

Alex sighed.

"Fine," she whispered. I smiled leaving the money on the table before taking her to the park nearby.
