Chapter 3.

After breakfast I invited my boyfriend Karl over. I hadn't seen him in ages and he just got back from 'Canada'.

"How was Canada?" I asked.

"It was great." He laughed, coming in. He suddenly stopped in his path when he saw Luke. "Who's this?" He asked, giving me a questioning look.

"That's my room-mate, Luke." I smiled, looking at look him who, was giving me a cheerful smile and approaching us both.

"Nice to meet you, you must be Karl?"

"Likewise." Karl frowned taking everything in.

"So Alice since when did you get a room-mate?"

"Well he arrived yesterday." I answered sternly.

"Okay." He muttered.

"I thought I was going to be your room-mate." He muffled a sigh.

"Sorry." I answered quickly. "It was sorta arranged." I added.

"Well, okay." He said forcing a smile and entwining my fingers with his.

I took them out.

"Um?" He asked.

"Sorry, I just had pancakes and I got syrup on them." I lied, looking at Luke.

"Oh haha." He began to laugh. "Wouldn't want that would we?" He teased.

"No, not at all." I studderd. Being in the same room as both of them made everything more awkward and difficult.

Firstly I didn't like Karl, not anymore anyways. A week ago I was doing my usual shopping routine when I saw him pashing some other chick when he was supposively in 'Canada'. What a liar I thought.

I quickly ran to the sink and washed my hands, taking as much time as possible then returning. I wasn't angry or upset about Karl, afterall I had a week to cry and b***h about it. It's just I don't want to break up with him since he proposed to me infront of my parents, and if they knew what was going on they would be devestated, and I didn't want them to be. So for now Karl stays.

"So. Tell me about Canada." I joked, looking at him seriously.

"It's good." He replied.

 Good? Seriously he's got to be kidding me. Karl dosen't know I know that he wasn't even there, and if I play my cards right I'll make him regret ever cheating on me.

"Where did you stay?" I asked 'innocently.' at this point in time Luke was staring at me suspisously. I looked at him and sighed, then turned away.

"Some place." He added, I nodded. Right, some place. Don't you mean hmm a girls place? I thought pissed.

"Oh okay. Well, anyways I'm busy so you kinda have to go." I lied, looking at him to Luke.

He cringed, but then left. Thank god he was gone. I smiled to myself.

"What was that about?" Luke asked. I turned around to see him facing me.

"Uh ..."
