For Baltimore

Delilah~~

"Thanks for stopping by, guys." Alex said before he closed the door. I let out a breath and ran a hand though my hair.

"Cassadee was very nice. How long has she been with Rian?" I asked.

"Almost four years." Alex said as we made our way to our room. Once there, I quickly looked around in my suitcase for some clean pajamas, but couldn't find any.

"Babe, we seriously need to do some laundry." I said as I stood up.

"We'll do it tomorrow. For now you can wear something of mine." He said as he walked over and started digging through his dresser. He tossed me a black shirt and I caught it. I quickly took my shirt and bra off before putting on the oversized t-shirt. I took my jeans and socks off and headed down the hall and into the bathroom. I took my makeup off, and then returned to our bedroom. Alex was sitting in bed by the time I got back and I got in next to him. Alex turned the lamp off beside him and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"You look hot in my clothes, by the way." He said as he kissed my neck.

"You look hot in your clothes too." I said. Alex chuckled and intertwined his legs with mine. I took a shaky breath before saying what I said next.

"Do you think we'll be together for as long as Rian and Cass?" I asked as I shut my eyes. Alex gently rubbed my thigh.

"Depends.."/he said.

"On what?" I asked with a yawn. It took a while for Alex to answer, and by the time he did, I was finally falling asleep.

Alex--

"Depends on if you love me or not." I said quietly. When she didn't answer back, I figured she had fallen asleep, so I pulled her closer to me and closed my eyes.

Delilah~~

"Alex! That's a lot of fucking soap!" I said while laughing. He grinned at me as he closed the lid to the washing machine. He turned around and smiled at me.

"Can't get it back now." He said as he pulled me into him. He pressed a kiss to my lips and let his hands roam before picking me up and setting me on the washing machine.

"Oh shit that's cold." I said, but Alex only continued to kiss me. I wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck.

"God, you're beautiful." He murmured against my lips. He moved his lips down to my neck and nibbled on my sweet spot, causing me to throw my head back.

"Alex." I moaned and he pulled me into him more, if that was even possible. I suddenly got nauseous and gently pushed Alex away from me.

"You okay?" He asked. I shook my head and hopped off the washing machine. I rushed through the house and to the bathroom, where I stood at the sink and took deep breaths. Alex walked in seconds later.

"Lex, I don't feel good." I complained. He pulled me into his arms for a nice hug, but I soon tore myself away from him and kneeled in front of the toilet as I threw up. Alex held my hair back for me and slowly rubbed my back.

"Do you need anything?" He asked as I finished. I stood up and rinsed my mouth out.

"Water would be fantastic." I said. Alex nodded and took my hand. He led me to the living room and sat me down on the couch. He exited to the kitchen and returned with a glass of water. I gladly took it and brought the glass up to my lips and I took a sip.

"Thanks baby." I said. Alex only smiled and kissed my forehead.

Christmas finally rolled around and I still wasn't feeling better. I woke up to Alex shaking me, and I sat up, getting headache. I was currently sleeping on the couch, because I was too lazy to fucking move.

"Merry Christmas." He said. I kissed his nose and he turned on the light.

"Sorry I wasn't able to get you anything." I said.

"It's alright. I only got you one thing, if that's okay." He said. I nodded with a yawn and Alex got up and grabbed a velvet green box out of the tree branches. He sat back down and handed it to me.

"This better not be what I think it is." I said.

"Rian said the same thing. Just open it." He said. I did as told and gasped at the beautiful necklace inside.

"Lex.. thank you." I said.

"You're welcome. I'm glad you like it." He said with a smile.

"Alex.. I know this is... early... but I... I love you, Lex. I really do." I said. He smiled softly and gently kissed me.

"I love you too. You know this." He said. I nodded and pecked his lips once more. I set the box containing the necklace on the coffee table.

"Care to join me in the shower?" I asked.

"I'd love to." Alex said. I smiled and he pulled me up.

After our shower, we both got dressed and I was feeling just a little bit better.

"You alright to go to my parent's house?" Alex asked.

"Yeah. I feel a lot better." I said with a gentle kiss to his lips.

"Perfect."
