The Lion and The Lamb

Alex's POV

"Do you think I should go?" I asked dad as we sat down and had dinner.
"If you want to go then you can go, I'm not going to stop you." Dad said and I smiled.
"You don't have to ask for my permission, your old enough to do what you want to do. I would just like to know where you are going and that you have your phone on you." Dad said and I nodded.
I finished dinner and went upstairs to have a shower and get dressed.
I walked downstairs and dad was just walking to the sitting room.
"Damn boy you hoping to get laid?" Dad asked.
"Might be, but knowing my luck anxiety will kick in and I'll pass out from a panic attack. But who knows maybe the alcohol will make me forget how much of a freak I am." I said and looked down.
"Lex, your not a freak. All I can say is be safe and wear protection." Dad said and I looked at him.
"Have fun." Dad said and I smiled and walked out the house.

I was stood in the kitchen, feeling drunk and feeling awkward and wondering why the fuck I was here.
"Hey cutie. Wanna go upstairs?" Some drunk girl asked.
"I'm gay so no I'm not going upstairs with you." I said and walked past her and went outside.
I looked in my pockets and found the weed I had hidden and rolled myself a joint and started to smoke it while drinking.

"Golden boy isn't so golden after all." I heard someone say and I turned round and saw some people who I didn't know.
"Never said I was golden." I said and smoked my joint.
"Sharing is caring, so give us some." The boy said.
"Why would I waste my weed on people like you. Just fuck off yeah." I said and one of the boys walked over and invaded my personal space.
"Give me the joint." The boy said seriously.
"And I believe he told you to fuck off." I heard Jack said from behind me.
"Fuck off faggot, sure golden boy can look after himself." The boy said.
"Don't call him that." I said and the boy scoffed.
"What you going to do about it? Call daddy and tell him that the mean boys are beating you up." The boy said and a couple of other boys chuckled behind him.
I turned round and looked at Jack.
"Hold my joint and my drink. You can have some of the joint if you want it." I said and Jack took my drink and joint off me and he started to smoke it.
I turned back round and punched the boy hard around the face which actually really hurt.
"Don't come near me again." I growled and walked back over to Jack taking my drink and walked off.

"Alex wait up." I heard Jack say and I turned round and I saw Jack jogging towards me.
When Jack caught up with me he panted for a few seconds and I handed him some of my drink which he took and had a mouthful and handed it back to me.
"I take my comment back from being a golden boy." I said and I chuckled.
"Weed and drink, makes me look and feel normal for once." I said and Jack smiled.
"You are normal. You just a twist to you." Jack said.
"This you hitting on me? Because if you are then it's probably a good time to do where my awkwardness and stutter won't get in the way and hey, I can actually say what I want to say." I said and Jack chuckled.
"Damn you ratted me out." Jack said and I smiled.
I walked over and stood really close to him.
"So I have this feeling we should hook up." I said and Jack hummed from the back of his throat.
"I have that feeling as well, but I am going to break my rule and not hook up with you." Jack said and I looked at him.
"Well damn that's like a stab in the chest, thought the rumors of Jack Barakat were just fake, maybe it's true that they are fake." I said suddenly feeling the weed and alcohol hitting me hard.
"Trust me the rumors aren't fake. I dunno, there's something different about you. It's like your innocent." Jack said and I snorted and laughed.
"There is fucking nothing innocent about me. Might be a 'golden boy' as you say, but I'm no where near golden." I said.
"Really?" Jack scoffed and rolled his eyes.
"I was 14 when I first had sex with someone. 12 when I had my first kiss. 13 when I first drank alcohol and smoked weed. Not so innocent am I?" I said and turned round and walked away, well it was more like walking in a zig zag.
"Need me to walk you home?" Jack asked.
"I'm good." I said and felt myself trip over my feet and landed on the floor.
"Well, you obviously not good since your a heap of limbs in the floor." Jack said and I felt him pick me up.
"Let's get you home." Jack said and I felt him walk but I just passed out.
