Chapter 1: In God's Hands
We both new it wouldn't work out. Our careers were clashing. If he was off, I was working, and when he was working I was off. When we were together, it wasn't the same. We didn't have the same relationship, but at the same time we loved each other. It was so ironic. But today, it came to an end. Someone had to do it because we were holding onto to dead ends. We forgot about us, our love, and just being there for one another.
I was in the laundry room, washing my clothes and I felt Nick standing there in the doorway. I turned around and I just knew it was over. I could see it in his face.
"Alex...",he sighed.
"I already know, Nick".
"No you dont, you don't know at all. I don't wanna leave you. I want what we had before any of this"
"Nick, you know it's not the same. It'll never be the same. I don't know what to do, but I know we can't be together"
He put down his head,sighed and left the room. I walked out after him. His bags were already packed.
"I guess this is goodbye, huh?"
"Yeah I guess so". He walked out the door, and that was the last time I was Nicholas Jonas. I've seen glances of him while at public events, and on TV, but that's it. It's been 3 months. 15120 hours to be exact. I can't lie and say I don't miss him, because I do.
I miss his kisses, his hugs,playing in his curly hair, just thinking about makes me smile. My cell phone started ringing,it was my bestfriend Kay.
"Hey Kay,whats up?"
"Lexi, you are getting out of the house today. It's beautiful, the suns shinging,clear blue skies. We live in LA for christ's sake, get dressed. We're going to the beach,kay?"
"Alright",I said laughing. I put on my bathing suit, some jeans shorts on,my flip flops, and some jewelry. I grabbed my purse and sunglasses before leaving out. I got in her car.
"Finally...we get to go somewhere and have fun"
"Yeah!", I yelled as I threw my hands up.
She started laughing at me,"21 is the best age to be"
"Yep". When we got to the beach,my whole mood changed. Me and Kay went over to the lounge area on the beach and got some virgin dacquiris. She was telling me about her latest designs for her spring line, and I felt someone tap me on my shoulder. I turned to face Nick. I got up and started walking away towards the shore until he stopped.
"Can we just talk,please Alex"
"What is there to talk about Nick?"
"Oh no, don't try to make it seem like I was the only one who made the decision"
"I didn't even say anything"
"I know you". I hated the fact he could read me like a book.
"Go on Nick, talk".
"Well...these 3 months have been crazy with out you. I need you and I know you need me"
"I'm not ready to be in a relationship with you again and you know that"
"Yeah, I know, can we please be friends at least?"
