Four

I woke up that afternoon still in his arms. He was sound asleep, a serene smile graced his face. I moved myself slowly and carfeully out of his embrace, trying to avoid waking him. I found Lexi sitting on the couch watching TV while she ate a bowl of ramen. I grabbed a Nature Valley bar from our pantry before I took a seat next to her.
He still sleeping," she asked between motuhfuls of noodles.
"Yeah. Do you promise to contain your inner fangirl while he's here,
I looked straight at her, I prayed she'd keep to herself while I had Alex here until tomorrow night.
"I promise. So the two of you dated," she asked.
"Yeah we did. But that was a long time ago now. I guess I never got over him. He saved my life from my abusive drunk of a father. He called me his broken procelain doll. He sometimes says that he fixed, brought the pieces back together. I guess he rushed here so he can keep me together. After what had nearly happened at that party, I really needed him," I confessed.
"Why don't you get back with him? He made you so happy before and he came here, when he's supposed to be on tour," she sommented.
"I'm just not ready to try again. I want to get through this semester and then go home. Maybe then I'll consider getting back with him," I told her. That's when I heard his bare feet hit the tile floor. Shit.
"I'll leave you two to talk alone," Lexi got up and rinsed her ramen bowl in the sink before she scurried off to her room.
I went into the kitchen and hopped onto a counter. Alex helped himself to a mug and poured himself some coffee.
"Please tell me you're not just stringing me along because it makes you feel better," he sounded really annoyed by what I had told Lexi earlier.
"Alex you mean a lot to me. You're not understanding what I meant. I love you so much it hurts. I'm just not ready to be in a relationship. I want to avoid distrcations while I'm here. Maybe when I go home after this semester and go back to Baltiomre this winter, we can try again," I pulled him over to me and wrapped my arms around his neck.
"I then I can wait for you Jules. To tell you the truth, I love so much it hurts me too. When I don't get a call from you in a while, I worry about you. I'm always afraid you might have gotten hurt or something," he pressed his forehead to mine. We looked into each others' eyes. That's when I placed a hand on his stubbled cheek, pullin ghim into a soft kiss.
"Thank you Alex for coming to see me. This mean a lot to me. I miss being alone with you," I breathed after we parted.
"Jules, I'll come out to you whenever you need me. I won't let you suffer through anything alone," he brushed some of my hair out of my face, kissing me again.

I took Alex to the airport, sending him back to his tour. We had agreed to say we are back together, but not officially until I'm done at Wayne.
"I'm going to miss you while you get back on the road," I told him as we waited for his flight to board.
"I'll miss you too. Please call me every night before you go to bed okay. I'll come up with Jack and a van to get your stuff back to Baltimore. Do you want to live with Jack or me," he asked, trying to sort everything out.
"I'm going to have to go with living with you Alex. That way I won't be apart from you," I answered. The PA went off that his flight was ready to board. Alex pulled me into his embrace, I didn't want to let him go in that moment. I was finally well on the way to getting back with the guy that saved myself and changed everything for me.
Alex you are my world. When I get done here, I need to get laid. I want you to do it. I can't trust anyone else with my v-card but you. I love you so much, you have no idea.

Notes

Alright I said fuck it. My plans are falling apart because I want to get Jules laid now. So I will have one my Alex chapter of these love brids being apart. Then the magic happens. And by magic I mean sex, not the Gathering.

Love,
