Chapter 7: Alexis


I've been sitting up in my room for hours. I'm listening to my iPod, and hugging my pillow. I have no idea what happened today. Well, I know what happened, I just don't know how we got there. It was like he had planned it all beforehand... Then I remember that that is what he did. He never needed tutoring. He just wanted to get in my pants. I would cry, but I really don't have a reason to. I mean, we aren't a couple or anything, and he didn't - I don't even want to think about that. I haven't told anyone yet, not even Alyssa. I most definately won't be telling Kate. She would freak. I finally decide to call Alyssa and tell her.

I dial her number, and she picks up almost immediately. "So? How'd it go?"

I take a deep breath. "Aly, I need you to come over. Now."

She's silent for a minute. "Alexis, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, but it's a long story, and I really don't wanna tell you over the phone."

"Okay. I'll be there in five minutes." Aly lives right down the street from me, so it doesn't take her that long to get to my house, thank god.

Less than five minutes later, I'm telling Aly everything that happened, and she's listening intently. When I'm done, she has a look of disgust on her face. "What a jerk," she says. "I can't believe he did that. I wanna slap him with a toaster."

I laugh. "Don't do that, it's not nice to hit people with toasters."

She rolls her eyes. "Whatever." She sighs. "So, are you gonna tutor him anymore? Didn't Miss Young say you had to tutor him so he would get a good grade on the next test?"

"Oh crap. I'm gonna have to go through this again!"

"I'm sorry," says Aly. "I would help if I knew how. But hey! I forgot I had something to tell you!"

I raise an eyebrow. "What?"

"Are you ready for this?" I nod. She takes a deep breath. "American Idol is coming to Evansville."

I'm not sure if I've heard her right. "Excuse me?"

She smiles. "American Idol is coming here to hold auditions."

I can't hold back my excitement. I start shrieking and jumping up and down. "Oh my God! I can't believe it!"

Kate walks in. "What's going on?"

Alyssa tells her, since I'm still freaking out. Kate just sighs and walks out of the room.

I finally calm down, and I plop down on my bed. "What am I gonna sing? Should I play my guitar, too? I think I will."

Aly rolls her eyes for like the fifth time in ten minutes. We spend the next hour planning for when I audition, even though they're not coming for almost three months. Then we go downstairs to get something to eat. Kate's in the kitchen, leaning against the island and sorting the mail, when we walk in.

"Did you decide what you're gonna sing?" she asks.

I nod. "I'm gonna sing 'Wouldn't Change A Thing' from Camp Rock 2 and play my guitar."

Kate smiles. "Awesome." She takes her mail and goes into the living room.

Aly and I sit down at th counter and turn on the tv. We start watching an old American Idol episode, which makes us excited all over again and we can't stop talking about it. We start planning some more, and talk about what I'll wear and how I'll fix my hair.

Later that night, as I'm laying in bed, I start thinking about Justin. I still can't believe he did what he did. But then, slowly, I start to realize that there's a pat of me, no matter how much I don't want to admit it, that didn't want him to stop. What's happening to me?
