There was some truth to her words, especially in the way she described her. And even though the young woman wanted nothing more than to unleash her inner Miranda Priestly, there was something holding her back. [color=deeppink]“It's just…”[/color] Audrey began, but ultimately hesitated. Although she wanted to keep her feelings under wraps, there was something about Mrs. Mossos that inspired trust in the young woman, as if the two were more alike than she led on. Then there was the fact that she had been swallowing these thoughts for a while, unable to speak to anyone about it: the A-team girls despised Alex and Leslie was so proud of Audrey dropping him that even mentioning she still thought about it would cause an argument. They didn't understand her, but it felt as if Mrs. Mossos did. It was because of this that, once she decided to speak out, the words began to flow as if a floodgate had been open. [color=deeppink]“I like Alexandros, I really do. As dumb as it makes me sound, he pretty much swept me up my feet from the moment our eyes locked together. When I saw him, I wasn't able to think about anyone else. All I could think about was being with him. But then the games started, with him using at least three other women -and those are the ones I know- to get my attention. And i don't mean talking to them to get me jealous, but [i]fucking [/i] them. Like, who the fuck does that?! Only a fucking asshole does. I wanted to fucking slap some sense into him. The fact that I played hard to get does [i]not[/i] give him the right to do that to me, in my opinion. That's when I gave him the first ultimatum, and he made it seem as if he was truly interested in me and making an effort to swallow up that enormous pride and ego of his. That's how we ended up… You know…”[/color] she gave Mrs. Mossos a sheepish, embarrassed smile. Then the scowl that had dominated her face took its place again. [color=deeppink]“Anyway, the morning after was when Ava exposed Alex. Sitting there hearing all the things -more like all the women- he’s done, it made me feel so stupid. There I was that morning, thinking that just [i]maybe [/i] it was the start of something, that i was different enough that maybe, just maybe, he could see me as something more. But then as Ava spoke I realized I'd fallen for his games just like the others had, and I was bound to end up as just another one in his list. So I put an end to things and bolted before he could have a chance to hurt me.”[/color] Audrey sighed, biting her lower lip. [color=deeppink]“Okay, so maybe you’re right and even if I said I was done I’m truly not. I just wish things could be different, you know? But he's got a nasty reputation I'm not ready to deal with, And after all these stunts I don't really trust anything he does or says.”[/color]
