Make it a sweet, sweet goodbye

Alex’s POV
I close my eyes as I take another pre-party shot before everyone arrives. I decided to host this party because I needed a good excuse to get pissed out of mind. My parents were out of town on some romantic getaway shit so it’s not liked I needed to worry about them. I just needed to get enough drink into my system to blank her out of my brain.
I can’t believe I could have been so stupid to mess everything up. I ruined any chance I had with the girl of my dreams…and I hated myself for it. I was stupid to think that all Kendra wanted to do was talk; I curse myself for ever going to her house. I take another shot as the bitter memory washes over me. I reel as the hot scratchy liquid slides down my throat slowly, a cruel reminder that I will have to take a couple of these to rid my mind of my mistakes.
I shake every thought from my mind as I fix my hair in front of the hallway mirror. However how much I try to rid the beautiful girl from my mind, she keeps coming back. The look of disgust on her face when she shut that window with such force I was surprised the glass didn’t crack. I close my eyes as the picture becomes more vivid, that mixture of disgust, disappointment and depression plastered on her face, but I could tell she was trying to hide it.
I clench as the anger for myself continues to bubble inside of me, how I could have been so fucking stupid. I ruined any fucking chance I had, what makes this worse is I basically promised to never hurt her, but what did I do a couple of hours later…hurt her! I feel disgusted with myself, even if I actually didn’t do nothing, but to be honest I didn’t expect Rebecca to hear me out…I mean who would with my history? I feel the anger for everything in life boil over and I am about to punch the mirror when the distance sound of the doorbell distracts me from my thoughts…oh well, time to get this party started.
Jack’s POV
I watch my friend all night, worry taking over. He doesn’t seem okay, he’s knocking back shots like there’s no tomorrow. The urge to drink and party pretty much left my system the moment I saw the look of depression on Alex’s face. Earlier today I told Rebecca to come to this party and talk to Alex the moment she found out the truth. And when I first entered the party I knew that was a good idea because of the look of heartbreak on Alex’s face, but now I wasn’t so sure.
Why? Well because Alex is now drunk. So drunk that he is basically humping the long haired bimbo on the dance floor. I didn’t know what to do, I tried calling Rebecca to tell her not to come but she wouldn’t answer her phone, she was probably getting ready. Also what was I meant to say down the phone? Don’t come to the party cause Alex is basically having sex with some slut in the middle of the dancefloor…no that would upset her for sure.
When Rebecca first came to this school I had the biggest crush on her, she was the sorta girl I’d go for, fun loving, not serious and a total nerd, and on top of that she was beautiful. In the beginning I was protective over her, not wanting the other boys to get close to her, I wanted her to be mine, Alex even knew I fancied her, so I didn’t mind them two getting along, I wanted my bestfriend and the girl I liked to get along and not hate each other, but then one day everything changed…I saw the way Alex looked at her, he looked at her the way my mum and dad look at each other…with pure love. It was from then on I knew me and Rebecca would never be. Alex had fallen for the girl I liked and to be honest I didn’t mind, because I knew there was something about that look in his eye that I told me he was serious.Therefore that lead me to give Alex my blessing to go after her, however making him promise to never hurt her.
I take a sip of my beer bitterly laughing at that memory. I made Alex promise and here he was basically flaunting the broken promise in my face.
I see the girl lean up and start to kiss Alex who hungrily kisses back, I run over to the couple and tear them apart earning a death glare from the girl.
“Du-de what you doing, I was getting some action!” Alex drunkenly protests.
“Do you think you should be doing that? What about Rebecca?” I ask quizzically.
“And what about Rebecca, she doesn’t want to know me anymore.” Alex replies, slurring his words. Anger builds up inside of me at how Alex can just easily push his feelings for Rebecca away just cause he upset her.
“Still dude, I thought you love her, she’s coming here tonight to make everything right, she found out the truth.” I reply trying to keep the anger at bay.
“I don’t care what she’s doing, she’s lost her chance for being a bitch and not hearing me out now if you don’t mind fuck off and stop being a cock block.” He slurs back before returning to kiss the random girl.
I feel the disgust in me boil as I storm away, only being back down to earth when I hear a fluttery tone come from my phone to indicate a new message.

Just Arrived, where are you?
I run outside quickly coming face to face with Rebecca, who looks as beautiful tonight as she does always. She smiles at my appearance obviously not knowing who to talk to. I run up and hug her, immediately feeling sorry for what I just witnessed.
“So where’s Alex?” she replies the smile still plastered on her face, she can’t go inside and witness it.
“Inside but-” I say but do not have a chance to finish because she quickly runs inside out of my line of vision. I chase after, cursing myself for telling her to come tonight. I come into the house my eyes setting on the couple in a heated make out session in the middle of the room. My eyes adjust to the darkness to find its Alex and his girl, my stomach immediately filling with disgust, but soon that feeling is washed away with sadness when my eyes land on Rebecca.
