Chapter 40: Chapter 40

Kyle's POV;

We stood at the sidewalk for over five minutes just staring at each other. I spent my time looking for her and not practicing what I'd say if i actually saw her again.

This was weird. This silence was the loudest. It was us calling out to each other without knowing what to say.

"This is awkward." She said after kicking a stone with her foot.

"Tell me about it! We were never like this"

I examined her. Her eyes were still sparkling and the dress she wore without a doubt made her looking astonishing.

"So what are you doing here?"

I looked at her for a minute. Is she really asking me why I'm here!? Isn't it obvious?

"I came here to bake cookies" I sarcastically replied and she chuckled a bit. She seems the same. Fuck that! This is how we were before everything went straight to hell.

"So where are you staying?"

"Over there," I pointed to the small motel down the street.

"Show me." She said.

We both walk down there in silence and I show her the unimpressive room.

"Welcome to my humble little motel." I proudly welcomed like it was a five star hotel.

She sat down on the sofa and stared at me. I  couldn't help myself but walked down to meet her on the sofa.

"I'm sorry about your-" I started but couldn't complete because her expression turned  sour.

"It's okay. I should have been there more for her during her last hours. But I was c-" She paused for a while. "Never mind that." She completed with a smile.

"I am really sorry I bought it up. I know there's nothing that could make you feel better."

"There isn't, but there's something I've always wanted to do. " She said as she lowered her gaze to my lips then slowly brought hers to mine.

She has gotten much much bolder.

I froze at first because I was surprised by her actions but the feeling of having her soft lips on my own gave me a feeling of longing and I kissed her back.

We both sat on the sofa and had one of the most intense make out sessions ever. The kisses were slow because I didn't want to force her into anything.

She moved closer to me, got on my lap and tightened her grip on the back of my neck.

I could already feel my member getting rock hard and lust had overcome me. Not taking my mouth off hers for a second, I used my hands support Alexis back, got up the sofa and slowly brought her to the bed.

While our hot intense make out session continued, we both heard a soft sound echoing in the room causing us to break apart to the source of the noise.

"There." She pointed up the corner of the wall and it was a small sound system, listening better, we realized it was Bruno Mars' song, Versace on the floor.

I turned my attention back to Alexis who just laid on the bed with her eyes fixed on me, hinting that she wants me as much as I want her.

"How far are you willing to take this my favorite nerd?" I asked to be sure I wasn't forcing her to do anything.

"As far as you're willing to take it my favorite Jock." She smiled and slowly my hands toke off her jacket while she took off my shirt.

I uniziped the back of her dress and didn't hesitate taking it off leaving her in only undergarments then she took off my pants. At this point I could feel Alexis. Her skin. Her scent. Every part of her.

"Are you sure about this?" I asked again to confirm one last time and she nodded her head.

My hands ran through her bare skin up to her bra which I undid and then her panties. We made love there and then, in that shabby motel.

This time it was different from all the girls I've been with. It was pure passion and with both our hearts racing.

Maybe it was the passion. Maybe it was the music. Maybe it was just us expressing our love for each other. That was not sex, that right there was love making.

My eyes fluttered open in the morning and I tried to put my arm around Alexis, but my arm hit the bed. Is she in the bathroom?

I got up from the bed, grabbed the first blanket I saw and knock on the bathroom door.

"Alexis are you in there?" No response.

"Alexis?" I open the door and then I didn't see anybody in there.  Her clothes were gone as well.

I look around trying to find a clue or something but instead I found a note on the floor. I picked it up to see what it was. It read;

Kyle, I know you'd probably search for me right now or not. But I wasn't kidnapped or anything, I left. Thank you for an incredible night. And thank you for being my first. I'm glad I gave my virginity to you. I thought I could hate you after everything you did but I just couldn't,  Kyle I love you. I will take this night as the greatest memory that we have together and hope you do the same. My mother's death made me realize that people can leave you at any time so I've decided to be with my family. Don't ever come back here. Go back to your own family. I heard your prom is in a few days,but I won't be able to make it. Ask Jasmine or whoever to go with you. Also you will graduate in a few days. Congratulations! It breaks my heart immensely to write this to you but forget me. We weren't destined for each other. Even with a letter i still want to tell you everything that is in my head..but that's not possible. This is our stop. Our final destination. Our final goodbye. I wish you the best in life, and I love you.

With Love,

Your Beautiful Nerd, Alexis.

Reading the letter brought tears to my eyes and for the first time ever I cried because of a girl. A girl actually broke my heart.

So this is what it feels like, breaking someone's heart?

I wiped away my tears, took a shower and left Glendale. It is obvious that there's nothing left for me in this town.

"Kyle oh my god! Mom and dad were worried!" Emily hit my arm playfully and forced a smile.

"There you are! We were worried" My father said then he hugged me.

"Are you alright?" My mom asked me.

"Maybe I should leave home often. I'm the center of attention." I joked to hide the pain in my heart.

"I'm going upstairs, I need to rest." I announced and went upstairs. I sat on my bed picked up the letter once again and read it. I punched a wall in frustration.

After some time, my door burst open and I l see Ashton and Brian. They looked really excited, waiting for me to tell them how it went.

"She didn't come back," escaped my lips and their smile slowly faded into a straight face.

"I'm sorry dude." Brian said in a bid to console me.

"It's fine. It's fine. It's all good." I tried to keep my face straight but I felt really sad.

Ash and Brian covered me with a tight hug and it felt good having such friends.

"No pressure but finals start tomorrow, so I should be leaving to go study. "

I just realized that finals are actually starting tomorrow. If Alexis were here she'd be studying so hard. I smiled at the thought.

"Hello!" Brian waves his hand across my face bringing me back to reality. "I was talking to you and you were smiling at me? Are you sure you're not turning gay?" He questioned with wide eyes and Ashton laughed.

"Maybe after getting his heart broken,he realized that he was off women." Ash teased me and I laughed it off.

"But guys seriously, finals are starting tomorrow, prom is a week away and so is graduation and then it's off to college." Brian brought up again.

"Dude chill, when did you start taking school seriously anyway?" I asked with a smirk and he snorted.

"I've always been serious, just being extra careful with graduation around the corner." he explained.

"It's not like they will fail us. They know our parents. We will all pass either ways." Ashton casually tells and Brian agreed.

"Lets leave our friend to relax from his journey." Brian suggested and Ash agreed and they hugged me and left.

I'm lucky to have friends like this.

I rest on my bed to do nothing in particular but ended up sleeping till morning. I took a shower and went to school. School without Alexis was the worst. It totally sucked. It did help that the week flew by and that prom was tonight and our graduation tomorrow morning.

I planned to stay indoors to watch shitty romance movies and in the few I watched, I noticed that the girl always runs back to her love during prom or graduation.

If Alexis was going to run to me she should wait till tomorrow but for now I shove a big scoop of ice cream in my mouth.

Who said ice cream was only for girls that had their hearts broken?

I stuffed my face with ice cream and fell asleep there. I woke up to the loud knocking on my door. It was already morning which meant graduation.

"What!" I yell at Emily.

"Get ready! You graduate today."

I shut the door, take a shower and brush my teeth. I get dressed and had breakfast with my family and after we went to school and saw everyone wearing the graduating attire.

I immediately spot Ashton and Brian and went ahead to sit with them.

The principal and also the valedictorian both gave long speeches. I didn't hear anything else as a part of me hoped Alexis would be there today.

They started calling names and I still didn't see Alexis.

"Ashton Cobrell!" They called and he went to the podium and collected his certificate and flashed a smile at the crowd.

"Alexis Coleman!" they called and everywhere went silent. "Alexis Coleman?" They called again and still no response. Someone came and whispered something into the ears of the lady and she apologized to everyone.

"Brian Downwhill!" They called and he went up the podium to take his certificate.

"Kim Young."

"Christina Roswell."

"Charlotte Stanlington."

"Jasmine Wellington."

"Andrew Patterson."

"Kyle Matthews." I heard my name, I immediately jumped up my feet and walked to the podium, certificate and leave.

She called more names and they all went to take their certificate except Alexis.

"Class of 2019!" I hear her shout and everyone threw their caps into the air and hugging each other. Some had tears in their eyes while others were already crying. Some where pretending to be fine and others were happy to be done with high school.

High school was a ride! It was intense. Meeting Alexis and other people that made the past years everything to me.

I hugged Ashton and Brian and I even hugged Andy, the guy I never liked.

Christina came to me smiling. "I want to apologize. I didn't think Alexis would leave the school." She apologized.

" It's cool, the damage has already been done."

I spotted Jasmine trying to talk to Ashton but he walked away. I went over to her.

"Don't be sad! Not today." I advised.

Ashton brought out a bottle of champagne and opened it. When it made that 'pop' sound everyone screamed and started celebrating.

"Congratulations everyone!" He screamed and everyone went wild.

"Congratulations Kyle." Someone tapped me from behind and it was Emily. She hugged me and my parents followed behind her and they all hugged me.

Maybe Alexis was right about family coming first and all that.

We had lunch at home with Ashton's family, Brian's family and Penelope's family.

At that moment everything seemed so perfect. I took a glass and suggested a toast, everyone raised their glasses.

"Cheers!" We all said.

I might not have Alexis but this is all i need.
