Okey Dokey, next chapter is up. I'm not sure all of you are gonna be that happy with me but hey, I had to create some more drama! Please as always read and review! :) And please don't hate me! :(

Chapter 13

Softly, sunlight poured through the small gap in the curtains and onto Jack’s bed, causing his eyes to open bit by bit. He blinked a couple of times and then rolled over to see another person next to him. He smiled; the girl who had her back to him had dark brown wavy hair and he recognised her immediately.

“Martha” he whispered gently. She turned around suddenly.

“Martha?!” said Alex, confused. Her face registered shock and then anger. Jack silently cursed and then started to panic.

“Erm, no I meant Alex… I mean, this is wrong, this all wrong. Oh my god what have I done?? Erm, Alex, you should go I’m really sorry.” Jack stuttered. Alex looked at him as he started to get up and grab his clothes. She sat up on the bed and looked at Jack, her hair falling down around her shoulders.

“Wait a minute. Let me get this straight, so, not only are you obviously pining over someone else, but your telling me that I should go?! That what happened between us was wrong??” Alex felt terriblel. She wanted to cry but she resisted the tears.

“Alex I’m sorry I didn’t mean to…” Jack started to apologise but she cut him off.

“Save it.” She snapped. Anger overwhelming her sadness. “You led me on Jack.” She said with resentment. As she was talking she started moving angrily around the room, putting on discarded items of clothing and picking up her things.

“You slept with me to make yourself feel better didn’t you?” she laughed, “And I thought you were nice…” she shook her head, realising her mistake.

“You know what?” said Jack, realisation hitting him, “I didn’t sleep with you to use you. I wouldn’t do that.” Alex stopped and looked at him curiously. Jack moved towards her, realising how unfair he had been.

“I’m sorry. Listen, I’ll be honest with you; I have been wanting someone else over the last month, but she’s taken and I really think I should move on. I know we were drunk and that maybe sleeping together wasn’t the best idea… but I really would like to get to know you more, if that’s ok with you…” Jack looked at her and smiled, truthfully meaning every word he said. As Alex looked into Jack’s eyes, she couldn’t help but feel weak at the knees; she couldn’t help but believe everything that he said. Cautiously she nodded.

“Erm.. I would like that, maybe just as friends at first, until you get over whoever it is that you like?” She smiled tentatively. She knew that she wouldn’t play second best, but she had been messed around before, and she could tell that Jack was actually a decent guy. She wasn’t prepared to let him go without giving him a chance.

“That sounds great.” said Jack, honestly happy.

‘Finally,’ he thought to himself, ‘I can get on with the rest of my life.’

That was great! Hmmm, I've got my reservations about this 'Alex'...

(Off Topic)- the name 'Alex' for a girl reminds me of two people, 'Alex Best' and 'Alex Curran' (UK residents will know who I am talking about, hopefully!) :D

Please update soon!x
