Don't Let Go
Chapter 10
part 1 of 2
*Logan*
It was the day of Taylor's party. I
knew Taylor HAD to have invited Alex, so I knew she was
going to be there. That's really only the reason why I
was going-well AND to support one of my best buds. Taylor
invited Dean too. ...Lets see how thats gonna go down
later.
As I drove up to
Taylor's house, there was already a ton of people
there.
I walked up Taylor's
driveway. I caught a glimpse of Alex and Riley. They were
already inside talking to Nicole and Taylor.
"Logan!" Somebody
called my name. I turned around. It was Dean. I gave him a
high five.
"Hey man." I
replied.
We both walked through
Taylor's front door. There was a disco ball and
flashing lights and lots of people were dancing. Let's
see how this'll turn out, I said to myself.
***
I tried occupying myself
with talking to actors I've worked with in the past,
but every couple minutes I would find myself sneaking a
peek at Alex. I needed to stop doing that. I shook my head
and focused on walking over to Nicole.
"Hey Nicole, can you do
me a favor?"
"Uhh yeah sure, what do
you need for me to do?" she curiously looked at
me.
"Well I need to get
Alex alone, I need to tell her something." Nicole gave
me a wierd look. She obviously knew something I didn't
know.
"I can do that."
she said and strided away from me. OK THEN. I thought. I
looked down to see my hands were all sweaty. I wiped them
against the side of my jeans. I decided to walk outside by
Taylor's pool. Then after a couple of minutes I saw
Alex walking towards me out of the corner of my eye. I
turned to face her.
"Hey." she said
calmly.
"Hey" I said back.
"You wanna walk with me?" I asked her.
"Sure." she
said.
We walked and talked for
awhile after that, stealing glances at each other. And then
I finally gained the courage to tell her what I needed to
tell her. I stopped walking.
"Is something
wrong?" Alex asked me.
"Well there's
something I need to tell you." I said looking down at
my feet with my hands in my pockets.
"Oh."
"I've wanted to
tell you this for a long time...but I never did because I
didn't know how. But I'm just going to say
it." I gulped. I pulled a strand of hair away from her
face. She looked at me intently.
"Alex...I--" I was
inturrupted because a fist got slammed in my face.
My face hurt REALLY bad.
"Riley!!!!" Alex
screamed. "What was that about?!!"
Riley ignored her.
"What're you doing messing with my girl?!" he
yelled in my face.
He didn't give me time
to answer. I was on the ground now and a crowd started to
form around us. Then Riley kicked me in the face. And
let's just say it hurt like hell.
I looked around for Alex but
she was lost in the crowd.
Something skidded across the
ground toward me and Riley. I took a good look at them. I
felt a grin widen across my face. There were two toy
plastic swords on the ground. Somebody wanted us to sword
fight. I thought the idea of it was pretty hilarious but,
when it comes to sword fighting, I'm your man.
I leaped up on to my feet
with one plastic sword in my hand. I gained on Riley. As I
jabbed he would block, squabbling while he was at it.
Riley's not that good. I took advantages while I was at
it, but Riley never changed his facial expression.
Anger.
I remembered something Alex
said about him having aggression and anger issues.
I got up close to Riley and
he blocked me, but wasn't that good enough, I smacked
the hilt of his sword with my "blade" and his
sword went flying into the air. Riley must've realized
he was unarmed because he fell on the ground and sorta half
ran, half crawled away.
I flipped my sword in my
hand. Now THAT'S how you sword fight.
After the crowd cheered, it
started to brake away. I walked around looking for Alex. I
spotted Taylor and walked over to him.
"Hey man! That was
awesome!" Taylor said spotting me.
"Uhh, ya thanks, have
you seen Alex?" I asked him.
"I think she went
home." Taylor told me.
"Thanks."
I sprinted to my
car.
