Alex: fidgeting with his napkin Babe, I swear, she's just a classmate. We were working on a project.
hum
he sighs as he looks at her noticing that she was wearing very tight clothes oh really?
Alex glances at the girl, then back at you, his expression shifting nervously
Y-yeah. It was a group project, and we had to meet up to work on it together. Nothing else happened, I swear.
hum
I look at him
He meets your gaze, his eyes pleading for understanding
Please, just hear me out. I swear it's not what you think. She's just a classmate. We were working on a project together. Nothing more than that.
hum
laughs "A project? At a fancy restaurant? On a Saturday night?"
nervously chuckles Yeah, I know it looks weird, but I had to finish the project before the deadline. It was due today, so I brought her here so we could work together without distractions.
hum
his glare sharpens no need Alex I know exactly who she is
nervously rubbing the back of his neck Oh, yeah? Then who is she?
hum
I stay quiet as I get up and leave
Alex quickly gets up and grabs your arm. Hey, where are you going? We need to talk.
hum
he laughs yeah right
Alex looks slightly annoyed
Hey, it's true! She's a teammate on the women's basketball team. We were studying together for an exam. You know how important sports are to me.
hum
he sees me walking with my friend and he gets jealous
noticing you walking with a friend, Alex's heart sinks, a pang of jealousy coursing through him
He tries to act nonchalant, but the sight of you with someone else makes him frown
hum
looks at him and puts my head down and cries
Alex's eyes widen as he sees you cry. He reaches out, placing a hand on your shoulder.
Hey, hey, baby. Please don't cry. Let me explain.
He looks visibly distraught, like he's genuinely worried about your reaction.
hum
I ignore him talking to her as if he doesn't exist
Alex glances at you, then back at the girl, noticing your indifference. He grows frustrated and leans over to whisper into your ear.
"Hey, babe, I know this might be weird, but can we talk for a sec?"
hum
he glares at him do you think I'm stupid?
nervously No, no, of course not. You're the smartest person I know, but hear me out. We really were just working together. It was a group project, and she needed my help.
hum
can we talk? I pull him into a room and I start crying
Alex looks shocked and concerned as you lead him into a room and start crying.
Babe, hey, what's wrong? He puts his hands on your shoulders. Talk to me.
hum
I get up and leave
seeing you walk away, Alex panics Hey, hey, wait! Where are you going?
hum
what project? I ask softly taking my hand away from him
he glances at the other girl then back at you, his expression conflicted
It's...uhm, a group project for one of my classes. We had to study together. Nothing serious.
hum
later that day he'd be walking down the street when he would see me kissing the girl from earlier
Alex's heart sank as he watched you kissing the girl from earlier. His mind raced as he tried to process what he was seeing. He felt a mix of hurt, anger, and confusion, and couldn't help but wonder what was going on.
He approached slowly, his heart beating fast.
hum
I throw my drink at him WHAT THE FUCK ALEX!!
Alex is caught off guard as you throw your drink at him. He jumps back, startled and shocked.
Whoa, woah! What the hell?! Calm down!
hum
looks at her then back at him so why is she here?
nervously chuckles Well, uh, we finished our project. And she wanted to celebrate. We're just having dinner. It's no big deal.
hum
i turn around as i see her
noticing your reaction, Alex sighs and stands up, walking over to you
Hey, listen, it's not what you think. She's just a friend. A classmate. We were working on a project together.
