Alex.

When I awoke the next morning, the first thing I felt was a hand lightly gripping my hip and fingertips rubbing patterns on it. I was so warm and comfy and I really did not want to move. My bare legs were tangled with Jack’s and judging by the warm breath I felt on my face, I knew I was facing him. I peeked one eye open and then another when I saw Jack staring sleepily at me.

“Morning,” he smiled, his eyes half-lidded from sleep. With his free hand, he reached over and stroked my cheek and then rested his arm over my shoulder.

“Morning Jack,” I yawned, moving closer to his chest, blushing slightly when I realised that we were both still naked beneath the covers. “Did you sleep well?”

“Course I did. How are you feeling today?”

“Amazing!” I replied with a grin, moving to sit up and get out of the bed. Jack whistled as I walked across the room to the bathroom, stopping to grab a pair of boxers from my bag.

“Now, there’s a sight I could get used to, Babe,” he smirked at me. “I think I’m going to have to impose a no clothes rule for you in my bedroom.”

I could feel my cheeks redden as I joined Jack in bed again, this time sitting in front of him so I could kiss him. Jack pulled me onto his lap being careful not to break our kiss as I brought my hands around his neck. Jack placed his hands on my hips, holding me down over his crotch area and I knew the friction being created between his bare skin and the blankets was driving him crazy. This was confirmed when I felt something poking at my thigh.

“Let me help you take care of that problem, Babe,” I smirked as I pulled the blanket off of him and pushed him back into the pillows into a lying position. It was time for me to be able to pay him back for the wonderful job he had done at cheering me up on Wednesday.

Jack was already aroused and I wrapped my hand around the base and took his length in my mouth. I flicked my tongue over his head quickly and took him fully, working my mouth up and down his length, getting the response I wanted. Jack’s hands tangled themselves in my already messy hair and lifted his hips off the bed, pushing himself further into me.

“Fuck, where did you learn to do this?” He asked breathless as a moan caught in his throat. “It feels so good.”

I only chuckled around his dick which earned another moan. Jack’s hips bucked up and I tasted the salty taste of the cum in my mouth as Jack came with my name on his lips.

“Good Morning, babe,” I smiled moving up to kiss his lips and cuddling with him.

“If I had a choice, I wouldn’t leave this hotel room, or this bed for that matter,” Jack stated, pulling me closer to him. “But Danny made me promise him that we’d meet him in the lobby at one pm to go for lunch. That gives us half an hour to get ready.”

“Want to shower together to save time?” I asked, quirking my eyebrows at him. “Anyway, we always have tonight to have time to ourselves; I guess we’ll have to humour Danny for a while.”

“Sounds like a plan!”

* * * *

It was one-ten pm by the time Jack and I made it to the lobby hand-in-hand, we had got a little side-tracked and we were a little late by hey, better late than never. Danny was waiting in the lobby with Pete and Patrick. They grinned and high-fived each other when we approached, leaving Jack and I pretty confused.

“Hmm, either both of you had a run-in with a vampire last night or Alex, you have a fetish for biting?” Danny remarked, leaning in closely and moving the neck of Jack’s jacket to look at marks on Jack’s neck. I blushed burying my head in Jack’s arms while Danny just laughed. “I take it my presents were put to good use then?”

Behind him, Pete and Patrick were trying their hardest not to laugh as Danny did his best to humiliate me.

“Yeah, yeah some friend you are, rub it in why don’t you? At least I can get some.” I snapped back playfully. “Which is more that can be said for you?”

“Ooh, burn,” Pete jeered at my comment. “Alex, you are a legend. Anyway, ‘trick and I will let you have your lunch and we’ll catch up with you later.”

We said our goodbyes and Danny led us to the restaurant in the hotel. We were then seated at a table for four and handed menus.

“Okay, joking aside,” Danny started, placing his menu down on the table and looking at Jack and I. “I’m glad that both of you are together and I’m going to stop talking about sex. This is meant to be about us catching up and I intend on doing that. I haven’t seen you both in ages.”

I was about to agree to this but I was distracted by a voice from behind us.

“Alex Gaskarth! I’m pretty sure I said something about no sex before marriage. I’m disappointed.”

My face lit up, I knew that voice. Hell, I don’t think I’d ever be able to forget that voice. I took my hand from Jack’s, running in the direction of the voice.

“Zacky!” I shouted, flinging myself into the arms of my best friend who I had missed so much. “What are you doing here? It’s been so long.”

“Well, Danny told me you were going to be here and, I missed my annoying best friend so I thought I may as well take a trip over here and see you.”

“I missed you too, Zack.” I replied, pulling myself away from him. “This is Jack, but of course, you already know that. He’s your friend too.”

“Hey Jack,” Zack smiled, hugging him before taking a seat beside Danny who was grinning from ear-to-ear.

“I take it that this is one of my surprises that you will openly admit to liking?” Danny asked, a smirk forming on his face. “Although, I know you loved my very thoughtful presents yesterday.”

I simply ignored his comment and concentrated on catching up with Zack. My friends could be silly at times and, even though it seemed to be their sole mission in life to humiliate me, I still love them. They were my brothers, how could I not love them? I couldn’t believe he was here, and since he had a week off from college, he was going to be going home for a few days too. As much as Danny loved to tease me, he did give amazing surprises and, I was so excited to see Zack. It had been forever since we’d seen each other last. Jack and I had only barely gotten together and, our relationship was still in that early developmental stage. The process of getting lunch turned into a three hour affair. All four of us had so much to talk about. Once we had managed to get food inside of us, we continued our conversation in the Starbucks across the road from the hotel. We talked as if it was going out of fashion and, like we’d never see each other again. At four pm, Zack and Danny stood to leave claiming they had stuff to do which left Jack and I free to wander around Chicago city for the evening.

“This trip is turning out to be great,” I sighed contently as I slipped my hand into Jack’s as we walked down the street. “I’m not going to want to go home, go back to the real world, and back to hiding our relationship.”

“Me either,” Jack agreed. “Five am wake up calls courtesy of Bella, not having you in my bed when I wake up and, the joys of going back to school. I have to agree with you, Babe, staying here seems like a good option, but I wouldn’t change anything about us for a million bucks. Our relationship is stronger because we’ve had to hide it. It’s made us stronger as people and, of course if I wasn’t teaching, I wouldn’t have met you and, what would I have then?”

“Not as many hickies on your neck,” I joked. “Actually, I’m sorry about those, I think I got carried away.”

“Ha, it’s okay Babe, I did too but they are easy to hide until they fade. Maybe some of the girls will finally get the hint that I’m taken and stop flirting with me. Your Music class is the worst.”

I smiled at his comment, standing closer to him as we walked down the street. My attention was very easily distracted when I saw one of my favourite clothes shops, and I began leading (well, dragging is probably a better word) Jack in the direction of the shop. Beside me, I heard Jack mumble something about the things he does out of love for me, as he allowed himself to be led into the shop. Jack hated clothes shopping when he wasn’t in a ‘shopping’ mood, but he was going to have to deal with it because I wanted new jeans.

* * * *

“Jack, hurry up,” I called from the other side of the curtain. I was getting a little impatient. “How long does it take to try on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt?”

After picking out a few things for myself, I had found the perfect outfit for Jack and I was dying to see it on him. Jack opened the door an inch and peeked his head out shyly.

“I’m not sure about this Alex,” he stated wearily. “I mean, the jeans are a little tighter than usual and I don’t think this is my style compared to what I usually wear.”

“Please come out, and let me see. I’ll tell you if you look silly or not. You know I wouldn’t let you make a fool of yourself.”

After my little speech, Jack pulled the curtain fully open and stepped out of the dressing room. He looked amazing and yet, here he was looking so shy in the doorway. The black jeans were skin tight and clung to his long, skinny legs and the white V-neck suited him perfectly and went so well with the jeans.

“Jack, you have to get these. They are made for you. I’d be so happy seeing you wear these any day.”

Jack flashed a smile in my direction.

“You think so?” He asked. “Do you really think so?”

“I know so,” I replied confidently. “They make you look hot.”
