Somewhere In Neverland

Wendy's POV

I was sitting in the living room, hanging out with Zack, Rian, Jack, and Kara. Alex rushed off somewhere. We were sitting and just talking, Kara was right, these guys really are pretty nice. We heard Zack's phone start ringing, and he took it out and said it was Alex who was calling.

"Put it on speaker!" Jack said. We all nodded our head and all stayed quiet as Zack answered the phone and put it on speaker.

"So wait, you and Lisa are through?" Zack asked.

"Yeah because I admitted my feelings for Wendy on accident." Alex screamed in anger and pain.

The guys and Kara all looked up to me. My eyes were wide. What? How? Why? I was sitting there in silence as everyone was staring at me still. Zack held his hand over the speaker and started whispering to us.

"Wendy, would you like to talk to Alex?" He asked quietly. I shook my head quickly. There was no way I could talk to Alex. No way in hell. I sat staring at Zack's phone with my eyes still wide.

"Why the fuck are you so quiet Zack," Alex screamed. Zack took his hand off the phone and started talking again.

"Alex, the phone was on speaker." He said. "And if still is."

"Wendy's in the room isn't she?" Alex whispered.

"Yeah Alex. She is." Zack said looking over to me.

"Fuck." Alex muttered. "Wendy. Please don't let this scare you away. I understand if you don't want to talk to me anymore. But please, please." I stayed silent, I didn't know what to say.

"Is she still in the room?" Alex asked, sounding like he was about to break down at any minute.

"Yeah. She's on the couch. It's like she's frozen right now. She's just been staring at my phone with wide eyes since you said it." Zack spoke.

"I'm on my way over." Alex said before he hung up the phone. I jumped off the couch and started running for the stairs so I could run to my room.

"Wendy!" Kara shouted after me.

"No! I'm not letting this happen again!" I shouted as I felt tears come down my cheeks. I got to the top of the stairs and ran to my room, locking the door behind me.

"No. Not again. Last time someone said they had feelings for me was Nate. You see how that fucking turned out?" I spoke as I sat on my bed and held myself. "Never again!" I shouted. I'm pretty sure I shouted loud enough for everyone downstairs to hear me. I heard running footsteps on the stairs and then a knock on my door.

"Go away." I spoke as tears ran down my cheeks.

"Wendy, it's me Rian, can I please come in?" He spoke softly.

"Please go away." I said softly. I heard my door open and shut again. Fuck, I always forget to lock it. "I said go away please." I said turning to face Rian. He sighed and walked over to my bed and sat in front of me.

"Can I just ask you one question?" He asked softly.

"Fine. But then will you leave my room?" I asked looking up at him.

"I will if you want me to. Now, answer this honestly." He said. I nodded me head slowly. "Why are you freaking out about Alex having feelings for you?" I put my head back down.

"Not talking about it." I muttered.

"Please?" He asked. I let out another sigh and guessed I should just say it.

"The last person that told me that had feelings for me was Nate. You see where that turned out? With his abuse, with him stalking my family and I. I'm not going through that again." I spoke.

"I would never put you through any of that." I heard a voice say by my door. I looked up and saw Alex standing there with a rose in his hand.

"I'll leave you two alone." Rian said getting off my bed and walking out and shutting the door behind him. My eyes landed on Alex's and you could tell he was crying. He looked heartbroken. He must have really loved this girl that broke up with him. So why was he in my room with a rose?

"This is for you." Alex said holding the rose out to me as he walked over to my bed. I didn't take it and just put my head on my knees as I held myself. I heard Alex sigh and felt my bed dip, telling me that he sat down in front of me. I moved my hands to push myself up and away from Alex, but he grabbed my hand softly.

"Please Wendy. Just hear me out. Please." He spoke, he looked like he was about to break down again. I sighed and moved pulled my wrist away from him so I can hold my knees up again.

"Go on." I said softly.

"Wendy, I understand we only met a few days ago. But since the day I met you. The way you acted since that day, the attitude, the sassiness. I love it. Every bit of it. Your like a puzzle. I can't help but want to figure you out. I want to know your past. I want to know every thing you hate. Everything you like. Even the stupid little shit like what color you like best, what season you like most, even your favorite book. Wendy, I can't help but feel this way about you. I never in my life wanted to know so much about a person. Hell, I didn't even want to know Lisa like that. I liked Lisa. And I told myself I loved her, but I have never felt this way with Lisa. So the truth is, I guess I never really loved her. Wendy. I want to know your future, I want to be in your future." He finished. I saw a single tear fall down his cheek. I want to believe him. I really do. I just don't know if I can.

"Please say something." He spoke softly. I had to say something. The poor guy just poured his heart out to me.

"Alex...I....I don't know if I can trust you.." I spoke softly.

"Wendy, I have never gave you a reason not to trust me. I'm not Nate. Please. Just give me a chance." He whispered.

"Alex. You just got out of a relationship. And I'm not ready for one yet. I kinda wanna get Nate out of my life before I find someone new. If I don't...he might hurt you...and I don't want him to hurt you." I was cut off by Alex.

"Wendy-" He started. I cut him off just like he did to me.

"No Alex. Let me talk." I said looking up at him, meeting his big beautiful brown eyes. He nodded his head slowly and let me continue. "When I'm around you. I get this feeling I have never felt before. I don't know how to explain it. I don't know what it is. All I know is, I never felt this way before. I think I felt something like this when I first met Nate. But it went away when we got together, and he started acting all different. Alex, what I'm saying is. I don't want to be in a relationship with anyone till Nate is gone. But till then." I paused for a minute. "I think I might be in love with you."

Alex's eyes met mine with what looked to be joy in then, but it was hard to tell, with his facial expression. I put my head down, not daring to look up and into his eyes again I felt two fingers under my chin as they lifted me up to face him again. I looked to the side, looked everywhere but his face. I felt something on my lips. I looked forward and saw Alex had moved forward and was kissing me. I was timid. But I soon kissed back. Alex pulled away with a smile on his face. I felt butterflies in my stomach. Alex held out his hand with the rose, offering me to take it. I let out a small laugh and took the rose.

"How did you know I liked white roses?" I asked softly.

"I may have talked to Kara about you a bit when you were passed out on the couch after that day with Nate." He said with a small smile. His smile made more butterflies in my stomach. He stood up and turned around and offered his hand to me. Witch I gladly took. He helped me off the bed, with the rose still in my hand. He opened my bedroom door and we walked out together, hand-in-hand. We got downstairs, and went into the living room.

"Oh my gosh! Their holding hands!" Kara shouted when she looked up and saw us. Making both Alex and I laugh a bit.

"So, you two together now?" Zack asked looking up as well.

"No. We have to deal with some stuff first." Alex said as he looked over at me with a smile.

"We'll talk about it after we take care of that stuff." I said turning around to everyone.
