Life's been shit.

Everyday my love for Alex grows, while he is dating a girl who is dropdead gorgeous.

A couple days after Alex returned home, I moved to my new apartment. It was all in a rush, since i blurred out that i found an apartment while I didn't. So the day after I said that, I looked online and luckily... I found one.

It's June 9th

Wich means tomorrow it's June 10th -> aka the day of the monkeys concert, and the day that Alex' girlfriend Olivia will come to Sheffield.

Shoot me already

Alex and I have been fine. After the "talk" we were a bit uncomfortable. But the morning after, everything felt nice again. He made me pancakes and we had a little jam session on his guitars.

No matter what, he always succeeds in making me feel good.

He's truly amazing.

...

"This was the last box Bel!" Sarah said after handing me a box full with decor items.

Sarah helped me move to my new apartment. Lucky for me, my sister 'Amelie' moved in with her boyfriend, and gave me some of her furniture.

The apartment was not the biggest, but I live on my own after all. Sarah helped me decorate it, and it turned out very cozy.

"Isn't it so pretty?" Sarah asks smiling at me.

"It really is, thank you for helping me Sarah." I smile. "You're the best."

"I'll see you tomorrow at the concert okay?" Sarah gets her car keys out of her jacket.

"Ofcourse, it'll be fun! See you tomorrow!" I waved her goodbye and closed the door.

"Alex? Is that you?" I tap on the green accept button on my phone.

"It sure is darling! How's your apartment?"

He asks happily.

"It is great honesty. Thank you." I say

"I do miss having you here... Can I come over to your place? To check it out and stuff?" Alex lightens up.

"Ofcourse Al, you can always come." I smile

I am so happy everything is back to normal

No more akwardness between Al and I. Although it only lasted 1 night, it still felt somewhat weird.

"I'll be there in 10."

"Okay see you soon Alex." I said as I turn of my phone.

...

Alex' pov

Things have felt differently.

Bella and I are cool, but I saw that she was hurt when I told her about Olivia.

She moved out as soon as possible after that day. I wonder why she's hurt...

What if she did remember the kiss?

Does she like me in a romantic way?

I surely do... but I also like Olivia a lot.

I haven't been in a relationship since 2 years. Bella always comforted me. She sometimes even invited one of her friends to go on a date with me. She knew all the things I liked so she always knew wich person to set me up with.

I always liked the girls Bella picked for me. They were very nice and I could always see why Bella picked them for me.

But I never felt what I felt with Bella.

She was different.

She's special.

I love her.

But I can't love her... She needed space. When she told me about the break up with Brian, she said that she wasn't ready to commit to anything probably for months.

So I gave her space.

In North-America I thought about wanting to talk to her about the kiss as soon as I came back. Maybe she did remember it, and maybe felt the same way as I did. Besides, 3 months would've passed when I would come back to Sheffield, so she might be ready.

Then Olivia came.

She reminded me of Bella.

And since I missed Bella so much, I started talking to her more and more. We eventually became very close and started dating. A month later I got back to Sheffield.

The funny thing is...

I missed Bella the whole time, and when I got back to Sheffield, I didn't miss Olivia in the same way.

Sure I missed Olivia, but the feeling of missing Bella is way more intense.

I don't really know what to do at this point. Olivia will come to Sheffield tomorrow, and I am all confused wether I love Bella more than her.

It's probably Bella...

But I have hurt her, and she might just want to stay friends... wich I would totally get.

...

"Alex! Come in!" Bella smiled widely.

"It's so great to see you." I smiled aswel, and I opened my arms and went in for a hug.

"Welcome to my apartment!" Bella said as we walked into the living area.

"It's so... Bella" i smiled "I fooking love it."

Bella blushed a bit and looked away.

I saw that

I smile

"Are you excited for the concert tomorrow?" Bella asked.

"I really am, concerts in Sheffield are the best. The crowd is just... Amazing." I smile even more.

"It is." Bella said. "So when is Olivia arriving?"

Gulp.

"Uhm around 10 tomorrow morning." I say looking down a bit. "I booked her a taxi, since I have rehearsals for the concert."

"Oh but, I can pick her up." Bella smiled

I look up again.

"Really? You would do that?" I ask confused

"Yes ofcourse! Besides, i'll get to know her a bit more already." Bella said excitedly.

"Wow, I mean... sure why not?" I smile.

"Great then, i'll pick her up." Bella said.

...

(The next morning)

Bella's pov

"Olivia? Is that you?"

I see a beautiful brunette girl walking out of the gate.

"Yes that's me, are you Bella?" She smiles

"I sure am, so nice to meet you Olivia." I try my hardest to be nice. Though I don't have to try hard, cause Olivia is already so nice to me.

"I've heard so much about you, Alex wouldn't stop complaining about how much he missed you back in Los Angeles." Olivia said smiling

"That's just Alex being Alex." I laugh

"So he complained about missing me aswell?" She laughed.

Well.. no

Weirdly

"Uhm yes, he missed you lots." I smile. Trying to hide the fact that I never heard Alex complaining about missing her.

"So you're from Los Angeles?" I ask

We kept on talking while walking to the car, and on the way to Alex' apartment.

I could see why Alex liked her.

She is so kind, and is beautiful from the inside and outside aswel.

...

"Olivia!"

Alex walked trough the frontdoor of his apartment. He just came back from rehearsal.

"Alex! I've missed you!" Olivia said giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"Right, so what were you two ladies doing?" Alex asks.

He didn't respond to Olivia saying she missed him. What is going on?

"We've been making some snacks for the afterparty tonight after the concert." I smile

Seeing Alex makes me so so happy.

"Ooh really?? Wich ones?" Alex asks while putting his shoes aside.

"Bella mentioned that your favourite party snack were cheese crackers." Olivia responded

"Ofcourse Bella knows how much I love ultracheeses." Alex smirked

"Ultracheeses?" Olivia looked confused

"It's how Alex calls those cheese crackers." I laugh. "I get it if you want to break up."

Olivia laughs too

"I can see you two like each other?" Alex smiles.

"Yes, Bella is amazing!" Olivia smiles

Alex' pov

I know she's amazing.....

That's it for chapter 7 :)
