In It Together→Book Two (SEQUEL)

Part One→Chapter Two

In the morning, Alex woke up with a faint groan. He realized it was now Monday, and he and Kaiden had school. He sat up a bit, careful not to hurt or bother Kaiden. Kaiden's still asleep, his body facing Alex. He doesn't realize it's the morning so he's still asleep.

Alex checked the time then swore lightly, looking at Kaiden. "Hey, Kaid-" He said, shaking the other softly. "We kinda got to go to school,"

Kaiden sighs lightly, opening his eyes softly. "What time is it?" he mutters quietly.

"Eight- school starts in ten minutes-" Alex said, getting out of bed.

"I don't feel like going." Kaiden sighs, sitting up. "Can you drive...?"

Alex nodded. "Yeah, I can drive." He said, looking at Kaiden.

"Alright," Kaiden nods. He gets out of bed heads over to his closet and grabs some clothes. He slides his shirt off and sets it in the dirty clothes. He slides a clean shirt on.

Alex didn't care about what he was wearing. He looked away, tapping his foot a bit. On the other side of the room, Kaiden changes his pants and puts a pair of shoes on. Alex waited until the other was done before he looked back. "Can we go now?" He asked.

"Yeah we can," Kaiden agrees, walking over to Alex.

Alex smiled a bit, kissing the other's head softly. "Alright then, come on then."

Kaiden follows Alex. "Sounds good. I'm so tired," he huffs slightly.

"You did wake up not even 3 minutes ago-" Alex commented. "Makes sense."

"That's true," he agrees. He looks ahead of them. "Let's go then."

Alex smiled and nodded, walking out the door and holding it with his foot for Kaiden. Kaiden nods in appreciation, then walks out of the door. He heads to Alex's car. Alex followed before he reached into his pocket, took out his keys, and unlocked the car.

Kaiden hops into the passenger seat. Alex walked around and got into the driver's seat, turning the car on. Kaiden buckles himself in. Alex checked the road before he pulled out of the driveway, turning towards the direction of their school. Kaiden watches him drive, not saying much. He yawns, still trying to wake up.

Alex hummed gently, making a few turns. He yawned gently, looking along the road as he drove. Kaiden glanced outside of the car, then pulled out his phone. He checks some texts and stuff while he has the time

After a bit, Alex pulled into the school driveway and parked his car. Kaiden gets out of the car and then closes the door behind himself. He walks over to the hood of the car and waits for Alex.

Alex reached back to the seat behind him, grabbing his bag from the back seat. He got out of the car before he shut the door, locking it. Kaiden waits for a bit longer then starts to head towards the school. Alex followed after him, sighing. "I honestly don't wanna be here either-"

"Me either. I'm excited to leave it," he says, sighing heavily.

Alex nodded. "Only a few short days." He sighed as well.

"I might skip tomorrow. Nothing's happening that I need to see."

Alex shrugged. "I'll happily join you." He said with a laugh.

"I'd love that, " he responds. "Skipping is great."

Alex nodded, smiling a bit as he walked into the school. "Well, I probably can't skip this class. So I'll see you later?"
