The Alpha Chose Me by Missy Elliottxo

Chapter 422

"Yeah". I made a face. "But it's not high school and if I do get accepted, he's not exactly going to be teaching me".

"Yeah, but what if he's the reason you don't get in? He was a bastard at times". She spoke.

"Can we come over yet?". Alanna yelled from two tables over. "Or are you two not good yet?".

Was it bad I forgot they two were here with us.

"We're good". Lacey smiled.

We hung out a little longer, but it wasn't long before Lacey wasn't feeling well again, and I was driving everyone home. Once it was just me and Alanna, she let slip that she knew what Lana did. "Does Jake know?". She asked.

"She didn't have a choice, Alanna. We've talked about it and it's all water under the bridge". I wasn't going to get into it with her. Lana did what she had to do to save Pete.

She knew nothing of what was going on and if I was in that position I'd have done the same thing.

"But what if it wasn't your family and someone else?".

"I'll drive to mine, but you'll have to drive back to yours". Surely, she'd take the hint that I wasn't going to talk about it. There was nothing to talk about and I wasn't going to let her make a big deal out of it.

And if it was someone else that took me then I'm sure Jake would have done everything in his power to get me back. See this is why I didn't want to talk about it. I didn't need to make up scenarios of what could have happened in my head. "Okay". She sighed. "But it was still a shitty thing she did".
