~Alex's POV~

School had been going normally since Valentines Day, but I felt like everyone had grown closer together. I didn't spend my nights with just Jack anymore, well we had a few nights to ourselves, but after school we mostly all hung out together. I had grown closer with Vic by a massive amount, he came to my house, or I went to his, and we played music together. He had eventually plucked up the courage to show me some of his own songs, and damn, he's a really good writer. You can tell that he will end up in the music industry one day.

Jack had been acting strange since I started to hang around more with Vic. We had an argument last Saturday about it, because he thought that me and Vic were maybe more than friends. He was just jealous. In the end, we patched it all up and we had amazing make-up sex. He now has my trust again and he knows that I would never hurt him. Anyway, Vic's straight, I think. If you ignore the Jaime thing. He always talks to me about this girl called Jenna in the grade below, and he has invited her to his party. He really likes her.

The party is tomorrow and we are all currently heading to Vic's house to say goodbye to his parents and set up for tomorrow. His house was really big, and we needed to remove all the breakable objects and furniture from there.

Mama and Papa Fuentes (they insisted we called them that) were going off to Mexico to visit family and were packing up the last of their things. They trusted Vic to look after Mike and the house.

"Are you excited for tomorrow?" I asked Vic whilst we walked down the street, my fingers tangled with Jack's.

"Yeah, I can't wait. I'm gonna get so wasted." Vic bounced up and down, a smile on his face. Like me, he'd never really been drunk before.

"Are you going to try and talk to Jenna?" I smirked.

"I'm going to do more than talk to her, Alex." He wiggled his eyebrows and I laughed at his reply.

"Who's Jenna?" Jack asked.

"She's in the grade below us, Vic likes her." I said, as Zack wolf-whistled. I swear when I said about Vic liking her, the corners of Jack's lips twitched up into a little smile. He was a jealous bastard, but I loved him.

"Is she the one with the bright green hair?" He asked, releasing my hand to make hand gestures, before grabbing it again.

"Yeah." Vic blushed, looking down at the sidewalk.

"Oh man, she's hot. If I swung that way, I would definitely sleep with her." Jack said, cheekily.

"Hey!" I released his hand and slapped his head playfully, folding my arms across my chest.

"Woah, sorry! Don't worry, I'd never do that to you, Lex." Jack moved his hands to my sides and started tickling my stomach.

"Stop it, asshole." I laughed, still trying to act angry.

"Okay, since I said who I'd bone if I were straight, you get to choose someone, so it's fair." He said seriously, prising my arm away from my chest and grabbing my hand again.

"Hmm.." I thought about it. "I guess I'll have to go with Cass." I smirked, looking over at the said girl.

"Thanks Alex, I'd bone you, too." She joked, blowing a kiss my way. I blew one back, and everyone was laughing, but Rian and Jack's laughs seemed a bit more forced.

"Back off, Gaskarth, she's mine." Rian said lightheartedly, his grip tightening around Cass's waist for emphasis.

"Yeah, Pope, I don't want you anywhere near him." Jack moved his hands and wrapped them around my head protectively. "I should pee on you to mark you as my territory." He grinned.

"Ew, no, that's gross!" I shouted, trying to squirm away whilst everyone laughed at my pathetic attempt to push Jack away from me.

"Nah, I'm not going to do it now, maybe tomorrow night when your pissed, so that you won't even know I'm doing it." He let go of my head, before kissing my nose and wrapping his arm around my waist.

"Hey Jack, tell me when your gonna do it so I can record." Jaime said, followed by a chorus of "me too"'s.

"I hate you all." I said frowning, just as we reached the part of the beach outside Vic's house. Me and Vic had made a camp fire a few feet away, and it was still there. If everyone stayed until it got dark, we had planned to all go and chill out and play some songs we had been practising when we had spent time together. I was going to play the song I wrote for Jack, everyone had been asking me to play it because Jack literally won't stop telling everyone how good it is.

When we arrived at the house, Mike was standing at the door and Mama and Papa Fuentes where just leaving.

"Let me give my Vic a kiss before I go!" Mama Fuentes shouted, running over to Vic, her arms stretched out. She engulfed him into a big hug before kissing him on the cheek. She then went to kiss the rest of us as we walked towards the house, spreading the cheery vibe she always gave off. The Fuentes family were always really jolly. After they had left, we headed into the house and started to get to work on moving most of the furniture into the giant garage attached to the side of the house. It was going to take a while, but we all had each other for company, and we were going to have a laugh.

Me and Jack had agreed that we could drink as much as we want tomorrow night, seen as I was the oldest in our group and I still haven't been drunk yet. Tomorrow night will just be about having fun, and I wont let myself have anything other than a great time.

Notes

Hey sorry if this is kinda short, it's just a little filler before the party. I've got the rest of the story planned out, and it won't finish straight after the party because I've decided to add a bit of drama ;) anyway, I hope you enjoy!
