Life isn't a fashion statement.

Alex's POV

I got into work in time which was a first since I'm never on time since I struggle getting out of bed and the shower badly and then I have to go a get coffee which ends up with me chatting to Beth and then I'm late and get shouted at but I don't really care.

I walked to Jacks office and knocked on the door and waited for him to respond.
After a few minutes Jack responded and I went in and sat in this chair.
The chair was big and really comfy so I was in love with this chair and wanted to steal it from him.
"Surprised you made it here on time." Jack said as he turned round in his chair and looked at me.
"So am I to be honest." I said and Jack chuckled softly.
"So, today I just want to talk about your contract with me and then hopefully get to know you." Jack said and I smiled.
"Maybe you can even show me the good coffee shops round here as well." Jack said and I chuckled.
"Coffee addict as well I guess?" I asked and Jack smiled and nodded.
"What would happen to me if I didn't have coffee." Jack said.
"You'll be looking a whole 10 years older." I said and Jack chuckled and smiled.
"I guess your right, so your contract." Jack said and we talked about my contract for the next 2 hours.

I showed Jack where my favourite cafe was and went inside.
I only liked this cafe because Both worked here and she gave me a discount every time I ordered coffee.
"What can I get you guys?" Beth asked and looked at me with a smirk.
Jack ordered his coffee and I did the same.
"Do you want anything to eat with your coffee?" Both asked.
Jack ordered food but i didnt bother since i wasn't hungry.
"Take a seat and I'll bring it over for you." Beth said and I smiled at her and Jack followed me and we sat by the window where I normally sit to think.

"This cafe is nice. Where did you find it?" Jack asked and I looked at him.
"My friend works here. Hence why the coffee and food was cheap, I get a discount because my friend loves me." I said and Jack smiled.
"So, tell me a bit about yourself then?" Jack asked.
"Well my name is Alex, I'm 23, I live with lesbians who are engaged." I said and Jack looked at me.
"Lesbians, you poor bastard." Jack chuckled.
"But are you really living with them because the girl behind the counter looks really hot." Jack said.
"Well let's just say women aren't my type." I said and got my mug and lent back in my seat and got comfy and looked out the window while nursing my coffee.
"If it makes you feel any better women aren't my type either." Jack said and I looked at him and smiled.
"Well its nice to know I have one gay guy on the team." I said.

We left the coffee shop and walked round thus huge park.
"So, tell me about you then?" I said as I sat on the grass and Jack sat next to me.
"I'm Jack, I have the odd accent that stands out, I'm 26 and I'm very gay." Jack said and I smiled at him.
"At least you don't have the posh British accent." I said.
"Would rather have that then stand out in the crowd." Jack said.
I just rolled my eyes.
"I have to get going." I sajd and stood up.
"This is going to say really cheeky of me but feel free to tell me to fuck off, but do you mind if I have a coffee round yours." Back said and I looked at him.
"Might as well, it'll be nice to have a guy round and not be surrounded by women and women problems." I said and Jack chuckled and stood up.
We walked to my place and I just hoped Quinn and Beth had gone out on a date night or whatever.
