A/N Oooh alternate ending – choose which you like
Alternate Ending One
"I..." was it just Alexis or was The Chazz blushing?
"I – I think I was wrong about Jaden," she added suddenly, "And... I only have one super big bar of chocolate in my room... do you think you could come up and help me with it?" of course she wasn't really asking about him helping her finish off the chocolate, she just wanted him there to hold her – to make her feel like she mattered again.
Chazz swallowed, "Uh I don't think..."
"Please?"
Chazz paused for a moment to think, "Okay."
Alexis descended a couple of steps and, for the second time that night, hugged Chazz as hard as she could, "You're a great friend Chazz..."
Alternate Ending TwoChazz stared at Alexis for a long second and she moved into to hug him before he took a step back.
"Don't..." he said softly, hating himself for saying this.
"Chazz – I was wrong about Jaden I don't think I love him at all... I don't think I ever..."
Chazz shook his head and looked at the floor, "Don't Alexis," he looked up at her again, knowing what she was saying was exactly what he'd wanted to here for ages.
"I think I liked you," she said, blinking away the tears which were still in her eyes from before. It was funny that, she'd cried a little but only out of embarrassment, not loosing Jaden. She swallowed, was it Chazz she'd always liked, she'd just never realised...
"I said don't!" he raised his voice only a little but it was enough. Chazz looked up at her, his slate grey eyes showing her all the pain he felt inside, "I caught you at a bad time... you just feel like you do now. Tomorrow everything will change again."
"But... it's you," Alexis frowned – wasn't this what Chazz had wanted? Wasn't it what he'd been going on about forever?
"No," he shook his head again sadly. She'd knocked him back and it had hurt, a hell of a lot, he wasn't going through it again just because she was confused. "It's not me and it never will be," it felt like something was wrentching at his heart, "Just – just leave me alone. You hate me remember?"
Alexis swallowed unhappily, and, for the second time that night felt fresh tears well up in her eyes, "But – I don't... Chazz, it was a mistake I... I..."
"It's too late," he replied softly. "I don't want to be the rebound from Jaden. I don't want you to like me just for being there," he looked back at the floor, "Good night Alexis," was all he said before walking away, leaving Alexis standing on the steps up to the Obelisk dorms. Crying alone. Rejected.
Alternate Ending Three"I..." was it just Alexis or was The Chazz blushing?
"I – I think I was wrong about Jaden," she added suddenly, "And... I only have one super big bar of chocolate in my room... do you think you could come up and help me with it?" of course she wasn't really asking about him helping her finish off the chocolate, she just wanted him there to hold her – to make her feel like she mattered again.
Chazz swallowed, "Uh I don't think..."
"Please?"
Chazz paused for a moment to think, "Okay."
"Chazz you've been great tonight. I think – I think I got mixed up. I don't know why I didn't see it before... I think I really liked you all along, I think-"
"Alexis?" Jaden called. Alexis stared down at him. "I – I'm sorry. I was shocked I didn't realise," he called up to her on the steps. Alexis looked from Chazz to Jaden and back again.
"Jaden – what are you doing here I thought..."
"I love you too Alexis. I'm sorry I didn't say it before..."
Alexis couldn't help smiling slightly at Jaden's words and she looked back to Chazz, having almost forgotten the youngest Princeton, "I – sorry Chazz. Can we eat that chocolate some other time?" with that she descended the last couple of stairs to Jaden who swept her up in a massive hug.
Chazz watched on as the only girl he'd ever loved left the dorm with his rival. It had been a funny night, but there was no lying here. He'd had Alexis in the palm of his hand, but somehow she'd managed to slip through his fingers. He'd lost her again.
A/N – Oh... there's no real happy ending. Isn't that sad? Guess I'm just one for crappy endings. Though they are all majorly cheesy. Hope you liked :P
