Chance.
Chapter Seven.
Alex's POV
Jack had just smashed his lips onto mine for the second time tonight. To say I wasn't enjoying it would be a lie. He had me pinned to the bed as his lips worked mine. He crawled on top of me and tugged on hem of my shirt. That's where I draw the line.I pushed him off me and sat up.
"Lex please." He looked at me with lust filled eyes.
"Jack. No. We only met a few hours ago. And knowing that we both live on the other side of the US, we are most likely never going to see each other again. No matter how much we might want to." I spoke crossing my arms over my chest.
"Alex, please. I need you." Jack said as he stroked my cheek with his hand.
"No Jack." I spoke again with a sigh. Well this was going great. I looked up as I heard Zack walking into the bedroom.
"Did I just hear Jack Barakat get turned down?" He asked with shock on his face.
"Yes. You did." Jack muttered as he laid back down on his back. I sighed and stood up.
"I should be going back to my room. We have to leave in the morning. Bye guys. It was nice meeting you." I spoke softly as I walked past Zack.
"Alex! Wait!" I heard Jack shout from the room as I was opening the hotel door to leave, I stopped just as he rushed over to me.
"What Jack?" I asked with my head down.
"When can I see you again?" He asked quietly.
"Rian and I are leaving at 7 in the morning. We have a long drive ahead of us. If you want to see me again. Be downstairs by that time and we can say good-bye or something. Since it will most likely be the last time we see each other." I spoke, keeping my soft tone. Jack brought me into a hug, which I returned.
"I'll be downstairs at 6:30am. Just to say good-bye. But it won't be the last time." Jack spoke as he let me go. I nodded my head and walked out of the room, leaving Jack by the door, just standing. When I opened the door to mine and Rian's room, I heard Jack sigh and shut his door at the same time I shut mine. I walked over to the couch where Rian was sitting.
"What's up buttercup?" Rian asked with a smile. I just groaned and put my head on my best friend's lap. "Well, you best start talking, because I want to know what's going on in that pretty little head of yours." Rian spoke again as he played with my hair. I sighed and started talking.
"Well, Jack and I played Never Have I ever. He said 'Never Have I Ever made out with someone.' he put down a finger and I didn't. He looked at me with shock an then I told him about my only kiss I ever had, with that Kayla girl. Remember that?" I asked my best friend.
"Yeah, I do. It was funny. How you both wiped your lips at the same time with a disgusted look on your faces. That's the moment I knew you weren't kidding about being gay." Rian laughed. I laughed with him. "Now come on, tell me what else happened."
"Well, Jack smashed his lips onto mine. Changing the fact that I have never made out with anyone. It lasted for about a minute till he started tugging on the hem of my shirt. That's when I pushed him off and told him no."
"Why did you tell him no? I thought you liked him."
"I do like him. But I told him no because we just met a few hours ago. Plus, after tomorrow morning, we will most likely never even see each other again."
"Don't say that. You guys will meet again one day. You have his number right?"
"I do."
"Then that should be proof for you right there." Rian spoke with a smile. I sighed and sat up.
"We should get some sleep. We have a long trip tomorrow." I muttered as I stood up and walked to the bedroom and laid down on my bed.
When I woke up it was to the sound of mine and Rian's alarms going off. I groaned and rolled over to shut mine off. I shut it off after a good three tries. Rian's alarm was still going off, I don't even know why he set his, it's not like he ever wakes up to alarms in the first place. I sat up and grabbed a pillow and chucked it at him. He groaned when the pillow hit him in the head.
"Get up Dawson. We got to be out of here in a half hour." I spoke as I got up from the bed and walked over to my over-packed suitcase. I always over-pack. I heard Rian let out a huge sigh as he sat up and shut off his annoying alarm. I picked up my suitcase and started to look around the room to make sure I had everything. I walked over to the bedside table and grabbed my lyric book out from in it. I grabbed my guitar case and placed in on the bed next to my suitcase. I quickly opened my suitcase and placed my lyrics book right on top, closing it back up again.
"Okay Rian. I'm ready. So get up and let's go." I said throwing another pillow at him. Gosh he was lazy. He let out another groan and finally got off the bed he was laying in. I grabbed my phone and went onto our college website. I looked at the music history lesson and it said that the exam was being pushed up to tomorrow.
"Fuck." I muttered as I put my phone back in my pocket.
"What's wrong with you?" Rian asked as he closed up his suitcase.
"Fucking music history exam is pushed up to tomorrow. When we get back to the dorms I have to cram a lot of shit into my brain if I want to pass it." I sighed.
"Alex, you have been cramming for this exam for the past month. You will pass it, just calm down." Rian said as he picked up his suitcase. "Now come on, it's 6:55am." I got up off the bed and grabbed my guitar case, as well as my suitcase and Rian and I walked out of the hotel room. Rian shutting the door behind me.
"Do you want to say good-bye to Jack?" Rian asked.
"He told me last night he would be downstairs at 6:30am to say good-bye. If he's not, then, well, last night was the last time I am ever going to see him." I spoke as we walked down the hall. We got to the elevator and road it down the the ground floor. When we got to the ground floor we got off the elevator and walked over to the check-in and check-out desk. Rian checked us out of the room as I looked over to the door. I saw Jack standing there, with what looked to be a upset look. I walked over to him slowly.
"Morning." I spoke quietly. He looked up at me an our eyes locked for a minute, until I turned my eyes to the ground. I heard his footsteps come close to me.
"Come to California with Zack and I." He spoke softly. I looked up at him with a confused look. "I want you to be in my life. No, I need you to be in my life. You can live in the dorm with Zack and I. Hell, even Rian can come along."
"That's not happening Jack. Ever." I spoke shaking my head. He sighed.
"It was wroth a shot." He muttered.
"What was wroth a shot?" Rian asked as he came to my side.
"Jack tried to get me to go to California with him." I muttered.
"Yeah, like that was ever going to happen." Rian said with a chuckle. "Anyways, we got to go Lex. The sooner we get back to the dorms, the sooner I can go back to sleep. And the sooner you can cram for that exam, even if I know you are just going to write song more lyrics."
"You write songs?" Jack asked looking to me. I nodded my head, then remembered something I wrote in the middle of last night when Rian was asleep. I took a folded up paper out of my pocket and handed it to Jack. "What's this?" He asked confused.
"It's a song I wrote. You can have it. I kinda wrote it in the middle of the night...last night." I spoke as Jack unfolded the paper and looked at the top.
"A Daydream Away?" He asked reading the top.
"Yep. Text me later if you want. We got to go." I said as I started walking with Rian.
"Wait! Alex!" Jack said. I turned around and looked at him. "What about Skype?" He asked with a smile. I chuckled and shook my head.
"I'll text you my Skype when we get back to the dorms. Till then, bye Jack. Also, one more thing, what is this?" I asked as I motioned from me to him.
"I don't know. But something tells me it's something I want to hold onto. Bye Alex." He spoke. I waved and walked out of the building by Rian's side. We walked over to Rian's car and we put our stuff in the backseat. We got in the front seats and Rian started up the car with a smirk on his face.
"Why you smirking?" I asked him.
"Seems like someone is going back to Baltimore with a boyfriend." He chuckled.
"He's not my boyfriend." I spoke.
"Not yet." Rian said with his smirk as he pulled out of the parking lot and onto the road.
