Alex

It felt unusually hard to wake up this morning, my eyelids felt like they weighed tons.

“Alexander! You have to get up to go to school!” I heard my Mom screeching from the hallway, and she burst into the room. I groaned, realizing immediately that I couldn’t breath through my nose.

Shit, I got sick from Jack.

I should've knew this was going to happen, french kissing a guy who had a cold and a fever was not my best decision. He just looked so cute, in his hoodie with messy hair, and comfortable on the couch.
My mom walked in and looked at me in disgust, and pressed the back of her hand to my forehead.

“Oh, you have a fever. You can’t go to class like this, just stay in bed. I have to go to work, so just eat the leftovers that are in the fridge.” my Mom told me, I nodded even though I really needed to go to school.
I had to hand in my paper for history, return homework in Advanced Calc, and I had to see Jack.

My throat felt dry and sore, my nose was filled, my eyes were watering. Literally all of the symptoms Jack was feeling yesterday. I’m such an idiot.

I picked my phone and decided to text Jack, to warn him that I wasn’t going to be coming in today. Hopefully he’s already in school, and he’s not driving to school. He thinks texting and driving is okay, and it certainly isn’t.

To Jack:
You were right
Im sick and i can’t go to school :(

To Alex:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

To Jack:
I’m sorry babe :’(

To Alex:
But Rian’s party is tonight!!
You have to go!!!

To Jack:
I am too sick,
Theres no way my parents would let me out of the house like this

To Alex:
BUT ALEX :(

To Jack:
I’m sorry, i love youuu

To Alex:
I’m skipping that damn party, i would so much rather be taking care of you

To Jack:
you can’t! It’s Rian’s birthday party, and it’s at your house, he would be devastated if his best friend didn’t show up

To Alex:
But you're my best friend :(

To Jack:
But your rians
Im going back to bed, and you better not cut classes to come here

To Alex:
Dammit, you read my mind

To Jack:
I will try to sneak out tomorrow to see you

To Alex:
Don’t worry about that now, just feel better baby
I love you so much

To Jack:
I love you too :)

To Alex:
I wish I could kiss you right now

To Jack:
Me too


Jack

This party could’ve have been worse. Okay, yeah, it probably could’ve. There could’ve been like a fire, or someone died or something, that would’ve been terrible, but it still sucked.

I used have so much fun at parties before I even met Alex, I was the fucking life of the party. I was the beer pong champion, I made out and grinded with tons of really hot chicks, and usually always ended up getting laid.

I just miss Alex. Cass already caught me trying to sneak out and go to his house, so my plan was a bust. Life just isn’t fun in general when he’s not by my side, everything is boring and dull.
At least Rian was having a good time, which was all that really matters today.
He got a cake smashed in his face, and someone got a pinata which was really funny seeing him so wasted and crying to hit a colorful donkey filled with candy, hanging from the ceiling.

I didn’t want to be a buzzkill by just standing around and watching everyone dance, I can’t dance with anyone anyway because I’m spoken for.
I should’ve let Alex kiss me yesterday, I should’ve known better. Nobody’s immune system is that high, by having a sick person making out and breathing all over them, and not get just as sick.
I’m so stupid.
I could’ve had Alex here but it’s my fault.

“Jack!!!” Zack wobbled over to me, he looked drunk off his ass.
Looks like I will be driving him home.

“Hey man!” I exclaimed.

“Where’s your Alex?” he slurred, leaning up against me.

“He’s at home sick,” I sighed, and he nodded.

“Where’s your Tay?” I mocked his drunk tone. I forgot that I promised Tay I was going to talk to her here.

“Well, she just broke up with me, because she has feelings for someone else.” he mumbled.

Oh no.

I thought that she got over that guy that she was in love with, and moved on to date Zack. Why would anyone break up with Zack? I mean, he is the total package. Great looking, nice body with huge muscles, and a sweetheart for the people he cares about.

I remember I used to have a crush on him, until I realized he was straight and I had no chance.
Plus, he’s not really my type. I’m more into shorter boys with tousled brown hair, doe eyes and dimples.
Too bad he’s not here right now.

“That really sucks man, did she tell you who it was?” I asked him, and he sighed loudly.

“Yeah, it’s just some asshole that she doesn’t have a chance with…” he slurred, and I frowned.

He really seems heartbroken over this, I feel bad for the both of them.
I guess Tay really can’t shake her feelings for this one dude, I wish I knew who it was, I’m pretty good at setting people up together.

“I’m sorry Zack, i know how much you liked her.”

“I got over it, and today’s about Rian! Lets DRINK!!!” Zack yelled.

I realized drinking was really going to help me with my missing Alex situation. Me and Zack took a few shots, and I started shotgunning beers with Rian until we were so wasted we could barely walk.

I’m pretty sure that I broke a lamp, danced on the kitchen counter, serenaded Rian with the karaoke machine. This was probably the best birthday he’s ever had
It was all amazing until everything started to die down.

Rian and Cass went off to some guest room to fuck, and Hayley and Brendon did the same thing. Zack was passed out on the ground with his shirt off, basically the last of the people were just guys trying to drag drunk girls upstairs to take advantage of them.

I should probably go to bed now before anyone starts having sex in my room.
Maybe I will call Alex.
He always cracks up when i drunk dial him, but he’d probably be asleep…

I watched a girl, with shoulder length choppy brown hair, in a tight black dress wobble over to me. I blinked my eyes a few times and realized it was Tay.

“Hey Jaaaaack” Tay slurred, limping over to me with one heel on.

“Hey Tayyy,” I answered, sounding just as intoxicated as her.

“Have I ever told you… how sexy you are…. In skinny jeans?” she asked me, burping twice in the middle of her sentence.
Yeah, that’s sexy. I wish we talked earlier, because I knew she wanted to get something off her chest, but I was way too wasted to have a serious conversation now.

“Ya know... just pants.” I answered, barely making sense anymore.

“You know what would be even sexier?” she asked.

“Wha?”

“You… with no pants.” she reached down and started unbuttoning my jeans.

“Nu… I have Alex.” I slurred, shaking my head and pushing her away from me. This isn’t right.

“Alex isn’t here *hiccup*... I want you… feel how wet,” she grabbed my hand and snaked it up her dress herself, I was surprised when I felt her drenched panties.

Fuck… I haven’t slept with a girl in so long, the truth is I kind of missed it. I was just so used to sleeping with boys and girls all the time a few months ago, just sleeping with Alex was having me miss out on a whole other experience I loved.

Tay was really really sexy, especially in that tight ass dress that had her boobs practically popping out of. She wanted me, and I’ve been told that I’m a horny drunk from many people.
Manyyyyy peoplee.

But, I’m not going to cheat on him, I love him, he doesn’t deserve that. He’s the very very best.

“Uhhh....” I answered awkwardly.

“Alex will never find out… nobody will...can be our little secret. You’re even hard already.” she whispered, grazing her hand against my hard on.

Oh, didn’t notice that. I guess I’m more turned on then I thought.

Tay wrapped her hands around my neck, and pulled me down to her height to kiss her, and I really did kiss her. It was so different from kissing Alex, not good different, just different.

. She was right, nobody would know.

I was so ready to get some tonight with Alex, but since he cancelled, I can still have sex.

That’s fair, right?

I picked Tay up and wrapped her legs around my waist, and kissed her as I slammed the door of my bedroom shut
