*Alex's pov* 

I suddenly wished I hadn't ended the video call with Bryan and Jordan, I could've used the moral support since I wasn't very good with confrontations. 

"Well hello Alex." Leda crossed her arms and shifted her weight on one foot. 

"Hi Leda." I said, kind of intimidated because I felt much smaller now. 

"So you seem to have taken on a liking on my date." She said her head tilted, looking down at me. I shouldn't be scared right? She seemed sweet. 

"Uh um, how long have you been here?" I asked her in a nervous absurd tone. 

"Long enough." She said casually, she expression didn't give away her feelings. I just stared at her, hoping that if I did that long enough she'd go away. 

"So?" She asked kind of loudly and I tried my best to hide my reaction. 

"Um okay I do have a crush on Shannon, she's my best friend but I've been too scared to tell her." I answered her very quickly, doubting now if she could even catch the words. 

She kept her hand on one of the sinks and leaned against it. 

"So you're telling me, you have a crush on your bestfriend, enough to have a conversation mid-way hiding in the bathroom and yet you let her come on a date with me?" She questioned. 

"I didn't know till now she's into girls too! I found out today and felt incredibly stupid. Just." I stopped there. 

"And your date is fake too, right? Hmm seemed like it. Well what are you going to do now, Alex?" She asked in a patronizing tone. She sat on the counter now, her legs crossed looking at me. 

"I-" I actually did not know. "I don't know. I really don't." I just looked at her. 

"Look," She started, "Shannon and I have a very casual thing right now. We'd go on a few dates, fool around." I cringed at the second confession. "Nothing exclusive right now, that's what we've decided. We're on the same page. But if it does develop into something more." I went on to one of the walls to get support, the stress was exhausting. 

"So basically, you have your chance, Alex. Get on with it or I have cat like reflexes" She said looking at her nails. I stood straighter, away from the wall. "I wouldn't mind stealing your girl." She said looking up. 

I wasn't sure how I felt about this. Was she helping me? Threatening me? Or both? I'd rather not delay with the help. I nodded and stood there, unsure of what exactly to do. 

She jumped off the counter and walked towards me. Heels clicking on the floor, loud in the silent bathroom, I wondered how no one else walked in all this while. 

She came up towards me incredibly close. 

"And if it doesn't work out," She said removing hair from my face "We can totally leave Shannon out." She said in a low voice and crashed her lips into my mine, pressing me against the wall into a long deep kiss. I was too shocked to move and paralyzed till she broke the kiss suddenly. 

"Let me know." She turned on her heels and walked out, winking at me. 

What the fuck just happened.
