Kiss Me Again
Butterflies
*Tay*
I slowly opened my eyes and I instantly felt pained and quite shitty. I tried to sit up, but my head felt absolutely horrible. I groaned, holding my head to see that I had a fishnet arm warmer on. Then the memories came flooding back to me.
Alex's birthday.
Him singing while shirtless.
Hayley leaving earlier.
Alex carrying me..
Wait, why??
When did I get home??
I checked my surroundings, seeing that I'm in fact, NOT at home.
Aw, shit!!
I laid back down on the bed, still holding my throbbing head in pain.
Then, I heard footsteps coming upstairs. Suddenly, Alex appeared, holding what looked and smelled like a tray of breakfast.
"Hey, Sleeping Beauty's awake!" he laughed.
I groaned, clutching my head even tighter.
"Oh shit..sorry. Luckily, I have a cure to your little problem."
He set the tray down on my lap as I sat up, then he took a seat on the edge of the bed. He handed me two painkillers and I quickly took them, then he handed me a glass of water to wash it down with.
"Now enjoy your coffee, waffles, and eggs. Hangover food, good for the soul." he winked, then got up and left, going downstairs.
I'll have to admit, being served breakfast in bed in this royal-looking bedroom makes me feel a bit like a princess. I laughed a little bit to myself, taking a sip of the coffee. I looked down at the tasty-looking breakfast on the plate. Normally, I'd just find some way to get rid of it. (I am on a diet right now after all!) But right now, I quite frankly just wanted this hangover to go away. And I'll admit, I'm a little bit hungry.
When I was finished, I was still a bit exhausted for whatever reason. I decided to rest my eyes..just for a little while.
When I woke up again, I stretched, got out of the SUPER comfortable bed, then fixed the comforters back to it's original fancy form. My breakfast tray was gone.
I walked downstairs to see the place practically immaculate. I walked into the kitchen to see Rian wiping off the granite countertops. Zack was sweeping up the last bit of trash off the floor. Alex was in the living room sitting on the couch, watching TV. Jack lay beside him; his head on Alex's lap and was holding a Gatorade in his hand, obviously still hung over.
I walked over to them, wanting to join in. Alex noticed me and tapped on Jack's shoulder as if to say "get up". Jack sat up a little, making room for me to sit next to Alex. Then he simply laid his head back down; on my lap this time.
"Gee, you guys sure have this place spotless!"
It honestly looked like no party ever took place in this house.
"Yeah we do! We've had plenty of practice, cleaning this castle." Jack smirked.
Alex just scoffed. "Ha, yeah you would totally know. Because you DEFINITELY clean whenever a party takes place and you don't just nap the whole time!" He replied sarcastically.
Jack turned his head to face him.
"Ahem..I don't see you over there cleaning the kitchen, Mr. Smartass!"
"Whatever, I'm the birthday boy. I don't have to do anything!" Alex leaned his head back on the couch and smiled contently.
"It's not your birthday anymore, ya know. That's sort of a one time thing." I smirked at him.
He looked at me kind of taken aback as if he forgot I was still here. He shrugged.
"Yeah, whatever." He looked down at his lap, trying to hide his face under his bangs.
Was he blushing?? Geez, I barely even said anything.
I smiled at that, then turned back to the TV.
After the show was over, I drove home. I got undressed and went to go take a shower; then I changed into some more comfortable clothes, and decided to text Hayley. I've gotta make sure she's alright.
Me- Hayley? U get home safe after ditching me? :P
She texted back about 2 minutes later.
Hayley- Sowwy, boo! :* I'm out with the bfrand rite now, gtg ttyl! <3
Boyfriend? So she started dating the guy from the party? Huh, alrighty then.
I put my phone down and relaxed on my bed. My stomach feels kinda queasy and weird, I guess it might be because that breakfast I ate this morning was the only real meal I've had in weeks. The only food in my system. And I guess that must be why I'm so weak and tired right now, because I have no energy.
People might think its unhealthy to just stop eating like I have. But I can't live knowing that I'm fat, and I'm just making myself even fatter by eating.
I need to stop eating so much.
I need to start working out.
I need to.....sleep.
I'm so very tired. So..so tired..
*Alex*
Jack sat upright on the couch beside me.
"Dude..you are so head over heels for her."
"If I disagreed with you, that'd make me a liar." I shrugged, my cheeks heating up from thinking about Tay.
The way she smiles..the way she smells..her hugs...the way she looked last night, oh my fucking shit!
"Dude, stop that." Jack snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Huh?"
"That. Whenever she's brought up, you either blush, zone out, or all of the above."
"Well shit, I can't help it! She's all I think about.." I was in the midst of zoning out again, when Jack started talking.
"Well have you been thinking about how you're gonna ask her out?"
Ah, riiiight. I agreed to ask Tay out on Christmas day. I'm not exactly sure how im going to do it, but I've got my fingers crossed that she'll say yes.
"Uhh..I'm not sure..not to sound narcissistic or anything, but I've never really.....had this issue?"
Jack let out a little laugh.
"Ha, well you're screwed, eh?" He joked.
But, it's true. I never had a girl reject me before. I've never had an issue with getting a girl I wanted. I've never had nerves this bad about it, I've never gone through so much trouble just to ask out a girl before.
"You need to try to do something with her; get to know her better."
"Like what?"
"I dunno, ask her out on a date or something.."
"THAT'S FUCKING BRILLIANT!"
"Heh, I guess.." Jack shrugged, feeling all special and smart n' shit.
"AND I HAVE JUST THE PERFECT IDEA! See ya later, guys!"
I got up and headed out the door to my car. I got home and ran upstairs to my room, and picked up my guitar.
Man, Tay is gonna love this.
I slowly opened my eyes and I instantly felt pained and quite shitty. I tried to sit up, but my head felt absolutely horrible. I groaned, holding my head to see that I had a fishnet arm warmer on. Then the memories came flooding back to me.
