Chance.

Alex POV

Two Weeks Later

Rian is making me start my college classes up again today, to say I was ready, would be a lie. I have been in my bed for the past two weeks, not even caring what I look like. It still hurts that Jack left me like that. I know it was all my fault, but I wish we could have talked it out. If it wasn’t for TJ, none of this would have happened. Oh no. What if Jack thinks I’m the one that kissed her? What if he was only lying when he said that he knew I didn’t do it? Oh gosh. Please no.

“Hey, hey, hey. Calm down Lex.” Rian spoke as he rushed into the room and put his hands on my shoulders. He has been doing a lot to help me cope these past days, but I know it gets on his nerves, even if he says it doesn’t. “Okay, take a deep breath. Good, now go get in the shower, and clean up, I’ll walk you to the lecture hall.” I nodded my head slowly and got up. I grabbed a random outfit from my closet and went to the bathroom.
I quickly took a shower, well, a little longer than I normally do, because Rian said I sink. Once I was done with my shower I brushed my teeth and used mouthwash. The outfit I grabbed from my closet ended up being a Green Day sweater, and a pair of black skinny jeans, as well as a pair of red boxers. I didn’t feel like styling my hair, so I just went back to my room and threw on a grey beanie that I had laying around. Once I grabbed my backpack with all my books in it, I went out into our small living room and saw Rian had just put on his shoes.

“Ready Lex?” He asked with a smile.

“No.” I muttered. He let out a sigh and walked over to me, and brought me into a hug, as I tried my best to fight back the tears.

“Come on, everything will be okay, and if you need me you can just text me. Don’t think I won’t break down that lecture hall door for the sake of my best friend.” He ended with a chuckle, making me let out a little giggle. “There’s that laugh I haven’t heard in forever! Haha, come on.” We started to walk, and I laced my arm with his and put my head on his shoulder, people didn’t care what we did, as we have always done shit like this.
We arrived at the lecture hall about ten minutes later. I was very scared about going into there for the first time since I have been back here in Baltimore, it scared me really. “Alright Lex, this is it, just go take your normal seat you sat in, everything will be fine. I promise. Like I said, text me if you need anything.” I nodded my hea and unlaced my arm from Rian’s, he opened the lecture hall door for me and I walked in. I looked around at all the people, all the fimiar faces I have grown to know. Some I have grown to hate. I walked down the aisle, and yes, there was eyes on me, which made me feel even more like a wreck. I took my normal seat and put my head down.

“Well look at that, if it isn’t Gaykarth!” The voice of the one I didn’t want to hear said. I raised up my arm and flipped him off with my hand turned his way. “Hey! What the hell has gotten into you? Don’t make me jump over this table and kick your ass.” I lifted my head back up and turned around, I looked his dead in the eyes with no emotion what-so-ever. “Where’s lover boy aye? He dump your ass and leave you on the streets?” Okay, that hurt. But I didn’t let him know it hurt me.

“Leave me the fuck alone.” I spoke, also not giving him any emotion in my words.

“So you talk now? That’s a surprise.” He chuckled as he shook his head.

“Maybe I would have talked more if you weren’t such a fucking asshole!” I shouted, getting almost the whole hall of people looking at us.

“Did your little rebel lover rub off on ya? How cute.” He said in a sarcastic voice.

“Fuck y-” I started but was cut off.

“How about you leave the guy alone and shut the fuck up.” A guy said. I looked to my right and saw a tall guy, with black skinny jeans, a batman t-shirt, and leather jacket. He also had a lip piercing and amazing blue eyes.

“Fuck you, dude. Who the fuck even are you?” Brent spoke.

“None of your fucking buisness.” The kid growled.

“But it’s your business what I say to Gaykarth?”

“It is when you are clearly picking on the guy. Leave him the fuck alone or you with have to deal with me.”

“You really think I’m scared of you?” Brent laughed. The guy leaned over the table and grabbed Brent by the neck of his shirt and brought him closer to his face.

“You should be.” He growled out. He pushed Brent back in his seat and he had the look of a five-year-old losing their Mom in the store. The tall guy turned to me and put a smile on his face. “Hi.”

“Hi.” I spoke, quietly at that.

“What’s your name?” He asked me.

“Alex. Alex Gaskarth.” I said looking up to him.

“I’m Andy. Andy Biersack. You wanna ditch this stupid class with me?” He asked with a smile still on his face.

“I would love too.” I said smiling back up at him.
