Third Times A Charm

Jack

"Come here Matty," I slurred.

"Jay, how much have you drank," he asked cautiously.

I shrugged my shoulders, the empty bottle still in my hand. I burped and laughed a little. It was safe to say that I was drunk. Very drunk. I leaned my head on Matt, nausea slipping into my stomach.

"Did you drink all of these? That's it, give me your phone. Now," Matt said.

I handed him my phone and put my head in his lap. I wasnt sure why he wanted my phone, maybe so I couldn't send some stupid text or something. I looked up to see him scrolling through, looking for something. I thought nothing of it, we use each other's phones quite often. He held it up to his ear, telling me that he was calling someone.

"Alex, it's me Matt," he said.

I could hear the scrambled voice of my fiancée on the other end of the phone though I couldn't hear his voice. Was Matt going to tell Alex that I was drunk? Was he that low?

"Well, Jack's shit faced drunk right now," he replied.

There was silence on the other end. Did he seriously do that? What were we, teenagers? I grabbed at my phone, trying to pry it from his hands. Alex didn't have to know what was going on. Couldn't I have just one dirty little secret?

"Jack is that you," I heard on the other end of the phone.

"Lexy-poo, I love you," I slurred.

"Jack, you were sober for three years. Why?"

"I miss you!"

"I miss you too but I'm not getting shit faced drunk!"

I heard Rian yell in the background, something about his language. He had a point. It was just a way of coping for me and it worked. He would if he were in the same place as me. It isn't fair for him to point fingers at me.

I hung up the phone and stumbled into the bunk room. I fell into my bunk and started crying. Alex wasn't going to forgive me. I was such a terrible person. He deserved so much better than me. Why was I so horrible?

Notes

So, I'm doing better however I'm still updating from my phone which is really inconvenient but I'm making do. That's also why the chapters are going to be kinda short. Sorry about that.
If anyone is going to the Charlotte Date of the BTTFHT let me know, I'd love to meet up :)
