Alex


The Halloween party was tonight, I couldn’t be more nervous. Not only was I going to my first, American, high school party, but me and Jack were also going to the next level.

I know that I am not a partier, I will probably just stand in the corner drinking water, pretending it’s booze, and watching all of my drunk friends, making sure they don’t get into trouble. I have no problem with that, I’ve never had alcohol before in my life.
I know, 17 and never even tasted beer, kind of unheard of.. But, that’s me.

I couldn’t help being nervous for taking the next step with Jack tonigt. I mean, I’m thrilled, but I’ve had butterflies in my stomach every time I see him now. I just don’t want to disapoint him, I’ve never done anything close to a blow job before, and Jack’s probably done it countless times.
Not trying to say my boyfriend’s a total slut, but he kind of is. But, he’s perfect, and amazing, and I absolutely adore him.

“Do I look okay?” I asked my brother nervously.

I was dressed up as a vampire, because I couldn’t think of anything other than what will probably be the most popular costume at the party. I had black t shirt, with black skinny jeans,black combat boots, my hair was messier than usual, and Tom helped me put these fake vampire teeth on, that were like the kinds they used in the movies.
It was kind of lame, I usually wear a lot cooler costumes than this.
I love Halloween, but I still wanted to look good to impress Jack.

“You look super sexy, hold on, let me fix your hair.” Tom said, getting a bottle of hairspray.

I didn’t tell him about the blow job thing, I just think he will make too big of a deal about it. He will try to convince me it’s either too soon, or not soon enough and just make me feel bad.

I’ll just wing it and hopefully I won’t completely embarrass myself in front of the man of my dreams.

My phone buzzed, and I knew that it was Rian texting that he was here to pick me up.
He was tonight’s designated driver, even though Jack said that everyone can sleep over at his house anyway. So basically, I didn’t have a car, and he was giving me a ride.
I said ‘bye’ to all of my family, and got into Rian's old and beat up car.

“Hey Alex!!” Cass welcomed, with a big smile on her face.

She was wearing a tight, black and white striped dress, and a piece of paper with a number on it was attached to it. Rian, had on a short sleeve, dark blue button up, with black jeans and boots.

“Uh, what are you guys?” I asked.

“I’m a cop, and she’s a sexy prisoner.” Rian chuckled. Oh, that makes sense.

“What are you supposed to be?” Cass asked, gesturing to my all black attire. I just look emo, darn, I should’ve used the fake blood.

I smiled to show my pointy teeth, and everyone laughed.

Jack’s house was about 5 minutes away from mine, which is surprising because I live in a poor neighborhood, he lives in a rich neighborhood.

“So Alex, are you a big drinker?” Rian asked me.

“No, not at all.” I answered. I gave myself a mental pat on the back, for not only using shy one word answers to my boyfriend’s friends. I have to remember that they are my friends now.

“Oh, good, neither are we.” Cass replied. Good, I won’t be sober and alone in a corner.

“You just wait to see Jack drunk, he’s insane.” Rian laughed.

“Yeah, he has a tendency to take off his clothes while he’s drunk, just warning you.” Cass giggled. Oh god, please don’t get naked in front of everyone.

“Oh great.” I chuckled. Now I’m even more nervous than before.

“He’s a huge drinker, so is Zack, Tay, and Brendan and Hayley.” Rian listed all of the people.

“Wait, Tay’s coming?” Cass asked, sitting up like he just said something very offensive.

“Yup,”

“Ughhhh!!” Cass groaned, slamming her fist down on the arm rest in frustration.

“What’s wrong with Tay?” I asked. I didn’t know other people didn’t like her too, I thought it was just me.

“You don’t know?” Rian said, very confused.

“She’s a bitch for starters, and she’s going to ruin your whole relationship with Jack. You guys are perfect together and she’s going to break you guys up!!” Cass wailed, like she was going to start crying.

“No, she’s not.” Rian disagreed.

“Jack said that Tay was just protective of him, because they’re friends.” I stated, confused by the whole situation. Why would Tay break us up?

“Yeah, cause she likes him.” Cass answered. She likes him?

It all started to make sense now. All of the dirty looks, judgmental comments, flat out insults towards me and our relationship

Tay likes Jack.

“You still have no proof, Cass.” Rian defended.
But, it was so obvious. I don’t know how I didn’t see it sooner. Of course she likes Jack, and she’s known him for years.
I just stole him from her.

“I have eyes!” Cass faught.

“Does she really like him?” I asked with a quieter voice.

I can’t believe this.

All the times Jack’s been alone with her, she could be trying to make her move.
She could’ve tried to kiss him, or touch him… Jack would pick her over me.
They’ve been friends for years, they have such similar personalities, and she’s hot!
I might be gay, but I know a good looking girl when I see one.
Jack is certainly not gay, Tay could make one move and be in bed with Jack in seconds.

I can’t believe this…

“Yes, but Jack REALLY likes you. You’re the only thing he ever talks about, he is always staring at you when you’re in sight, he’s falling for you hard, Alex. And you really like him, so Tay is out of the picture. She’s no match for how important you are to Jack.” Cass explained, making me smile.
Jack likes me, not her. Her liking Jack isn't important, because I am his boyfriend.

“Does Jack know?” I asked curiously.

“I don’t think so,” she responded.

“There’s nothing to worry about, it’s the crush that everyone gets for him sooner or later.” Rian laughed.
That’s really true, Jack is the most charming person I’ve ever met.
He just has that ability to make everyone he meets fall in love with him, I’m just lucky to have him like me back.

“I remember my crush on Jack,” Cass giggled, making me chuckle, and Rian pouted.

“Then you met meeeee!!!” Rian smiled, looking over at his girlfriend with love in his eyes.

“And I fell in love!!” Cass squealed, giving Rian a kiss on the cheek.
They are so in love. I can’t imagine them being with anyone else but eachother.
That’s how people are going to think about me and Jack one day.
I know we are meant to be.

Honestly, I don’t really mind that Tay has a crush on Jack. I don’t blame her, I mean, look at him. He’s GORGEOUS. At least now I know why she hates me so much.
She just wants my boyfriend. I know that Jack would never cheat on me or something, he’s not like that.

When we pulled into his driveway, and saw all of the car’s lined up on the road, and the huge mobs of people walking through the front door, the nerves were definitely starting to set in. Maybe I can just hide in Jack’s room all night, I get social anxiety and I already have enough going on tonight.

“Um, maybe this was a bad idea…” I muttered, making Cass and Rian laugh.

“Don’t worry, my panicky princess, we’ll stick by you the whole time.” Cass assured me, giving my hand a squeeze before dragging me inside.

It took a few seconds for my body to adjust to the different setting. First of all, there was an overwhelming smell of alcohol when you first walked in, that hit you like a wave. The lights were off, and colorful, flashing strobe lights were the only things brightening up the house.
There was already too many people by the door, I can’t imagine who is in the kitchen, or the rest of the house in general. Earsplitting loud electronic music was blaring from the stereo in the living room. There is going to be such a mess in here, and Jack isn’t going to stop complaining all tomorrow morning. The party started at 9, it was 9:05, it felt like our entire school was already here, and shit faced drunk.

“Come on, Bambi.” Rian urged, pulling me through crowds of people. Bambi? Honestly, I’ve never had a more accurate nickname to fit my personality.

I looked around for Jack, who was usually very easy to spot in a crowd, but now it was impossible. If only I was a little taller, I could see over these people.

We made it to quieter corner, that had a couch to sit on, and a good view of the living room which was being used as a dance floor. I would rather be at home doing homework than this.

“Hey guys!!” Hayley squealed, her and Tay wobbled over to us in their heels. They were dressed as slutty Thing One and Thing Two, and already slurring their words.

“You guys look great!” Rian exclaimed, Cass gave him an annoyed look.

“Have you seen Jack?” Cass asked, nearly screaming over the loud music.

“He was just making out with some girl over there,” Hayley responded. I felt my heart sink. What? Cass and Rian both looked at me with horrified expressions.

“No Hayley, that was Zack!! She said Jack!!!” Tay corrected her. Oh, thank god…

“Oh! Jack was doing shots in the kitchen.” Hayley said.

I stood on my tip toes, trying to see over people’s heads and to the kitchen, Cass did the same, but she wasn’t taller than me with heels on anyway.

“Here, let me text him.” Rian offered, pulling out his phone and sending a quick message.

A few seconds later, I heard my name being screamed from across the house, and Jack squeezed through crowds of people to get to where we were. I smiled when I saw him, wearing a similar costume to Rian.
He had skin tight black skinny jeans, a navy blue t shirt, and a vest that said SWAT, in white letters. That isn’t be best costume for the host of the Halloween party, but he looks really, really good in a vest…

“LEXY!!!” he exclaimed, wrapping too arms around me, and picked me up so my legs were forced to be wrapped around his waist.

“Awww,” Cass squealed, pulling out her phone and taking a picture.

Jack pressed his lips to mine, giving me a sloppy kiss, with his tongue immediately pushed into my mouth. I tried not to gag at the very strong taste, and smell of alcohol he was giving off.

“Whoa, you’re drunk already?’ I chuckled, pulling away, and wriggling out of his arms so I could stand on too feet again.
His hands immediately explored my body, going up my shirt, and down my pants, and everywhere in between.

“Yeahhhh, me and Zee took pre party shots!! I’m so glad you’re here baby, you look so sexy…” he slurred, looking at me up and down without being subtle.
I assumed Zee was Zack, I couldn’t help but smile when he called me sexy.

“So do you,” I told him, fiddling with his vest, as he had both hands on my ass. This is going to be a long night.

“I know,” he responded cockily, making me laugh. Before I could answer, he started dragging me over to the kitchen, and right in front of the wide variety of booze.

“I don’t drink, Jack.” I told him, making him burst out in laughter.

“Of course you do,” he chuckled, opening himself a bottle of beer. I shook my head no, I had no interest in drinking.

Plus, me being drunk is not a good idea. Drunk Jack is insanely adorable, but I would just be a moody mess. Jack gave me a fake glare, and handed me his beer to try. I took a sip, and once the bitter drink touched my tongue, my face scrunched up in disgust.

“EW, that’s gross!” I exclaimed, and watched him make another drink for me to try.

“I thought you would say that, here.” he chuckled, handing me a drink in a red solo cup.
I had very low expectations, but when I had it, it tasted really fruity and whatever he put it it, completely overpowered the vodka. I didn’t know drinks could taste like this.

“This is good!” I exclaimed, making him laugh and he took another sip of beer.

“I knew you’d like it, it’s just vodka and red bull.” he smiled, and kissed my forehead.
I smiled, I love it when he does that.


Jack tried to get me to dance with him multiple times, but I have never danced before in my life. I cannot be good.

I stood around, at first I was talking to Rian and Cass, but I think they wandered off somewhere to fuck. Ew gross mental image.
Then Zack and I were hanging out, he refilled my drink, and left to make out with more girls.
Brendon came over to talk to me until he started dancing with Hayley. Usually I would be mad that he left me for some girl, but he has a huge crush on her, and dancing with her is a huge step in the right direction.
Jack came to me every other song, and we made out, then he went back to dance, then made out, and left to dance.

It seemed kind of lame just standing here, but it’s what I would rather be doing. But I've been so bored , I already finished my second drink.

Jack pulled on my hand, trying to drag me out to the dance floor, I shook my head wildly.

“Next song!” I promised, waiting for the alcohol to kick in so I could loosen up.

So far, I felt the same. Jack frowned, and gave me a peck on the lips before joining Vic and Kellin. All three of them were scream singing, “makedamnsure” by Taking Back Sunday. Nobody else at the party listened to that music was dancing, so they all kind of fake lip synced to the lyrics.

Suddenly, the music started to get a little louder, the lights started to get a little brighter, I was swaying on my feet. Um, am I drunk?

I felt someone grab my butt, but I wasn’t sure who it was, I think it was Jack.

I didn’t really remember much after that, just loud music, and sweaty bodies dancing
