Alex’s POV
We got home and mum wasn’t home which was bonus and we went inside.
I turned around and looked at Jack who was looking around the house with his eyes as Rowe and Nala ran upstairs to get changed so they could then go to work.
“What you thinking about?” I asked as I walked over to Jack who looked at me.
“How nice your house is.” Jack said quietly and I smiled at him.
“It’s just a roof over my head. Mum works hard so we can live here.” I said and Jack looked at me and smiled.
“Follow me and I’ll get you a drink.” I said and I walked off and Jack followed me to the kitchen.
“What do you want, we have tea, coffee, squash and even some weird shit my mum enjoys drinking.” I said as I looked through the drinks and looked at Jack.
“I’m alright at the moment thanks.” Jack said and I smiled at him.
Rowe and Nala came into the kitchen.
“You two be good and no trouble, mum said she would be back at like 7 with food and Rowe mentioned Jack being round as well.” Nala said quickly as she grabbed herself and Rowe a drink.
“Cool.” I said as I got myself a drink and I looked at Jack.
“Follow me.” I said as we walked to the sitting room and I put my drink down on the table and threw myself onto the beanbag and Jack chuckled as he sat on the sofa.
“So what’s it like living with 3 women then?” Jack asked as he stood up and looked around the sitting room.
“It’s nothing but tits, vaginas and periods oh and the hormones which fly around the house trust me it’s hell but I love them.” I said and Jack smiled.
“Your brother isn’t the bad looking.” I said and Jack looked at me with a frown.
“Eric, you wouldn’t be able to cope with my brother.” Jack said and I raised a eyebrow at him.
“I like a challenge.” I said and Jack chuckled.
“Well to start off with Eric is a shit, wherever trouble is sure enough Eric is involved. You couldn’t cope with Eric because it appears that nobody can cope with him. Well there was someone but something happened and hey I have a out of control brother. Also before you go chasing after my brother 1 thing you must know. My brother is likely to eye up Nala and Rowe more than you so just don’t bother.” Jack said and I nodded.
“What about you then?” I asked and Jacks defence went straight back up.
“What about me?” Jack asked confused as he sat on the arm of a chair.
“Well you said your brother was the shit, so what does that make you?” I said and Jack rolled his eyes.
“What makes you think that I’m not a shit.” Jack said and I chuckled.
“Your eyes.” I said which made Jack frown as I stood up and walked over to Jack.
“What about them?” Jack asked as he looked up at me.
“Their kind looking eyes.” I said as I ran my finger along Jacks cheek bone.
“You know, if you want to get into my pants all you have to do is say because to be honest my ass hasn’t gotten any dick for fucking ages.” Jack said bluntly which made me chuckle as I pulled Jack up on his feet.
“Well I can fix that if you want me to fix it.” I said as I ran my hand down his arm.
“Just take me to your room and just do me please.” Jack said more bluntly so I grabbed his hand and dragged him to my room.
I was looking at Jack who had fallen asleep and I smiled softly to myself as I moved some hair from his face which made Jack sigh loudly as he opened his eyes and smiled at me as he went back to sleep again.
“Hey, wake up. I don’t exactly keep my sex life a secret but I don’t really want mum to think I’m that much of a slut.” I said and Jack chuckled as he rolled onto his back and put his arm behind his head and opened his eyes.
I looked at Jacks chest and saw a tattoo.
“Never put you as a tattoo person.” I said and Jack looked at me.
“Full of surprises.” Jack said and I smiled at him.
“Okay, so this weekend someone is having a massive party and I was wondering if you wanted to come to this party with me?” I said and Jack smiled as he moved and sat up in bed.
“Yeah, don’t see why not.” Jack said as he got out of the bed and out his pants on and climb back into bed and I sat up.
“Awesome.” I said as I heard the front door open and shut.
“Alex you home!” Mum said up the stairs.
“Yeah, I have some company we’ll be down in a minute.” I said loudly and hoped mum heard me.
“I think your mum knows what you’ve been up too.” Jack said and he playfully slapped my face and got out of the bed again and got dressed.
“She’s doesn’t really care as long as the sex happens in my room and nowhere else in the house.” I said as I got out of bed and just pulled some sweats on and I turned round and looked at Jack.
“Yeah, you might want to hide the hickey I gave you if you don’t want your mother to find out what you’ve been doing.” Jack said as he walked round my bed and picked up one of my hoodies and put it on.
“You can have mine if you want, but I need to go home.” Jack said and he put one of my hoodies on.
“Is this you saying there’s going to be a next time?” I said and Jack shrugged his shoulders and walked over to me and kissed me which I returned.
“Maybe.” Jack said as he turned round and walked out my room and saying hello and goodbye to mum before I heard the door open and shut.
I looked down and smiled to myself as I pulled Jacks hoodie on and went downstairs.
“So that boy seemed like a nice lad.” Mum said as she turned round and looked at me and I sat on the sofa next to her.
“Yeah he is really nice.” I said quietly.
“Is he going to be a fling or something more serious because you seriously need to get into a relationship.” Mum said and I chuckled quietly.
“At the moment I think it’s a fling.” I said being honest with mum.
“As long as your being careful and you’re not fucking on the kitchen table then I don’t mind.” Mum said and I just rolled my eyes.
“So tell me about this lad then, he literally just said hi and bye and was gone.” Mum said and I chuckled and I got myself comfy on the sofa and picked the remote up and flicked through the channels until I found a decent music channel.
“Yeah he’s a nice lad and everything but wether he can put up with everything.” I said and mum frowned at me.
“From what I saw of him, he seems like the sort of lad who can cope with you.” Mum said and I looked at her.
“He’s got baggage and I have baggage even if something was to happen between us the baggage between us alone would just fuck us over so it better to stay away.” I said and mum chuckled softly and patted my leg.
“You just carry on with what your doing and you’ll end up with nobody.” Mum said and I just sighed loudly and got off the sofa and went upstairs to my room and changed my sheet and just watched films.
I have no idea what the time was since I’ve been up in my room all evening and I wasn’t hungry so for all I know it was the middle of the night.
It was short lived by someone knocking on my door and I looked up and saw Rowe.
“May I come in?” Rowe asked and I nodded and Rowe came in and lead on the bed next to me.
“Mum is worried, you didn’t come down for dinner.” Rowe said and I looked at her.
“She shouldn’t worry, I’m fine just wasn’t hungry that’s all.” I said quietly.
“Too busy thinking about Jack?” Rowe asked and I frowned at her.
“I don’t even like him in that way.” I said and Rowe raised her eyebrow at me.
“Really that’s why you have a hoodie which isn’t yours on. The fact you invited him over, somewhere you do like him maybe you just need to do a bit more bonding with him.” Rowe said and I shook my head.
“It’s just sex Rowe, that’s all it is.” I said and Rowe chuckled.
“Just because it’s sex doesn’t mean feelings don’t get involved. Just look at Nala and asshole. That started off with just sex and now their together.” Rowe said and I frowned at her.
“Just let your wall down a little. You never know maybe you’ll like Jack and hey you could be couple goals but for the gays.” Rowe said and I smiled.
“If it makes you feel a little better, me and Nala like him a lot and he doesn’t seem to take much shit but he’ll stand up to people.” Rowe said and I smiled at her.
“Go for it.” Rowe whispered and patted my leg and rolled off my bed and walked out my room when Nala walked in and just collapsed on my bed.
“Hard day at work?” I asked and Nala nodded.
“I fucked Jack.” I said and Nala looked at me.
“Well that was definitely on your brain when you invited him over.” Nala said and I rolled over to face her.
“After talking to Rowe and thinking about it, I think I do like him Nala. Maybe there might be something between us, but I don’t know.” I said quietly and Nala sighed.
“Look I’m too tired to be dealing with your boy problems right now.” Nala said as she sat up.
“But I haven’t got boy problems though.” I said confused and Nala rolled her eyes at me and got off the bed.
“If you like him then ask him out on a date or whatever you gays do.” Nala said as she walked out the room and I think she crashed in her room and I went outside.
———————————————————————————————————————
It was the night of the party and I was looking at myself in the mirror.
“Damn somebody looks hot tonight, you are definitely wanting in someone’s pants.” Rowe said as she and Nala lent against my door.
“No I’m not.” I said as I walked over to my bed and put my shoes on.
“Yeah you are, anyway if it’s for Jack then go for because he seems like a nice guy and I think he likes you too.” Nala said and I just rolled my eyes as I walked over to my bed and sat down.
“I highly doubt he even likes me, just wanting sex.” I said and someone moved and sat next to me on the bed.
“Well you never know unless you get out there and stop being a little slut.” Rowe said and I just rolled my eyes.
“I’m not a slut.” I said and both Nala and Rowe chuckled.
“Well that is bullshit considering you go and fuck dudes in the toilets or wherever you go at school.” Nala said and again I just rolled my eyes as I put my shoes on.
“I’m not even talking about this now.” I said as I stood up and pulled a jacket on and walked out my room and went to meet Jack.
“Damn someone looks hot tonight.” Jack said as I walked up to him as he lent against this fence where I was meeting him and he handed me a beer which I took and started to drink it.
“Can say exactly the same.” I said and Jack smiled and we walked to this party.
“So you a straight edge?” I asked and Jack looked at me with a frown.
“If I was a straight edge then why would I go to a party where there is alcohol?” Jack asked and I smiled slightly.
“That is true but I was just making sure of these things.” I said and Jack chuckled.
“I was known at my old school as the alcoholic kid who enjoyed partying to much and would sneak out of school to go to a party.” Jack said and I looked at him.
“Would never of put you as that sort of person.” I said as I watched Jack have some of his beer.
“What like how I’m also not the sort of person who would skip class to fuck someone in the toilets.” Jack said and I shook my head.
“Nope, would never of guessed.” I said and Jack smiled.
“Well you are just shit at ready people then.” Jack said and I playfully smacked his arm as Jack faked a hurt expression on his face which made us both laugh.
“Told you I was a shit, I just a different type of little shit.” Jack said and I smiled as I felt this feeling in my stomach.
We carried on talking until we got to this party.
“So I also have some pills on me if you want some pills.” Jack said and I looked at him shocked.
“I smoke a joint and the odd line of coke but I don’t do pills.” I said and Jack nodded respecting my wishes which took me by surprise since most people would push me to pop some pills it I could tell was different and I just watched him put a couple of pills in his mouth and washed them down with his beer and once we did that we went inside.
I was really drunk and Jack was beyond being drunk but he was having a good time. I was stood in the kitchen getting myself another drink and sorting myself a line of coke out since it was just left on the side when someone came over and stood next to me as they lent against the side to hold themselves up.
“Your friend is a fucking drunken mess.” The person said and I looked and saw Ollie.
“Well you’re a find one to talk on being a drunken mess.” I said as I snorted a line of coke and I stood up and looked at Ollie.
“Come back in and dance and keep an eye on the drunken mess.” Ollie said and I rolled my eyes.
“I’m a fucking mess as well so no I won’t keep an eye on him, but I will dance with him and probably end up sleeping with him.” I said as I grabbed my drink and went back to where the party was just as Jack was walking over.
“See you’re having a good time.” I said and Jack smiled as he took my drink and had some of it and pulled a face.
“What the fuck are you drinking?” Jack asked.
“Vodka. Take it you’re not a vodka fan?” I said and Jack grabbed hold of my hand and dragged me to the kitchen but not without me nearly falling over my feet.
“It’s all about the whiskey.” Jack said as he poured himself some whiskey.
“That stuff is nasty.” I said and Jack looked at me.
“Can say the same about vodka.” Jack said and I could chuckle.
This song came on which got Jacks full attention and I chuckled quietly as I caught hold of his hand and dragged him to the sitting room and we started to dance.
By the time everyone was kicked out me and Jack was really really drunk and it was to the point where neither of us could stand without support.
We was leaning on each other as we walked home which was a long walk so knowing our luck by the time we sober up we would be home and the hangover would be kicking in.
“Where you crashing tonight?” I asked as I tried to ignore the feeling of wanting to be sick while Jack was dancing to this music.
“I was going to go home but I don’t think I’m in a fit state to walk home by myself.” Jack said which made me laugh without meaning too.
“You can crash round mine if you want.” I said and Jack looked at me.
“You hinting about something?” Jack asked and smirked at him.
“I could be but you never know.” I said and Jack chuckled as this song came on and Jack started to dance but this time I was being included in the dancing not that I really cared because I was too drunk to care.
“We’ve got to be quiet.” I said quietly as we got to my house and I opened the door since the door always got left unlocked when one of us goes out because we was never able enough to unlock the door when we get back and would normally crash in the hammock if we was too drunk and was on the verge of passing out.
“But the night is still young.” Jack said and I rolled my eyes.
“It’s like 5 in the morning. My mother will not like us if we wake up on her only day off so you shut your trap.” I said as I looked at Jack who had this look on his face.
I turned round and pulled Jack towards me and I kissed him which Jack returned and soon it was getting heated.
“Lead the way to your room.” Jack said and I smiled as I caught hold of his hand and pulled him inside as I shut the door behind us and I took us upstairs when I noticed Nala’s light was still on which made me frown.
“The toilet is the last door on your right if you need it and my room is opposite the toilet and I’ll be with you in 5 minutes.” I said and Jack nodded and he went to walk off but I gently pulled him back towards me and I kissed him which Jack returned and I let him go and I watched him walk off and I knocked on Nala’s door and walked into her room and lent against the wall since I couldn’t stand still without my body moving even though I was standing still.
“Jesus Lex how fucked are you?” Nala asked from under the covers watching some serial killer documentary.
“Very fucked.” I said and Nala chuckled quietly.
“Is that Jack you brought back with you?” Nala asked.
“He’s fucked as well.” I said as I laughed.
“Seriously if you are going to fuck please keep the noise down. I do not want to hear you and this documentary is interesting.” Nala said and rolled myself round the wall and out of her room and tried to find the door handle but failed terribly so I just left it and I went to my room where Jack had just made himself at home under the covers.
“Make yourself at home why not.” I chuckled and Jack smiled as he lead down looking like he’s settling down for the night.
“You’re bed is comfy.” Jack mumbled which made me smile as I took my top and jeans off and just left my pants on as I climbed into bed.
