Loose Knots

Alex's First Kiss

The Alarm buzzed, Alex's head shot up and instantly shot back down, as her forehead met with the underside of her sisters bunk. 

"Fucking shitty, ahhhh shit," she mumbled into her pillow. 

As she sat there rubbing the now throbbing lump appearing on her scalp , she heard Kelly voice from the bunk above.

"You ok," her sister chimed.

"Yeah fanfuckingtasic," she moaned 

Her sister giggled at the word, "bless her," thought Alex even though she was only two years older than her. 

It was the routine every morning; wake up slam face into the top bunk, roll out of bed and then check Facebook for anything remotely interesting; the usual bullshit, some dumb shit moaning about something or some one, then the collection of deep meaningful quotes. She read the first one "Know yourself for then you are truly beautiful." God. Then finally it was finally, images of cute animals doing slightly amusing things. 

She looked at the time in the corner of her desktop, 10:35 luckily though it was a Saturday, so there was no mom or dad losing there tits over whether or not she was going to be late for school: which contrary many peoples belief she did enjoy, she just didn't like most of those people. She continued to scroll through the drivel on her monitor. 

Bang! she heard her sisters feet landing on the hard, wooden floor as she threw herself from the top bunk. Alex knew her sisters morning ritual as well; Jump out of bed, straight into thirty press ups, then thirty sit ups, forty squats, then plank for two minutes and then finally get dressed.

"Seeing Kyle today, " Kelly asked between breaths.

"Might," Alex replied not taking her eyes away from the screen, "Depends."

"Why, what's happened. " her sister queried looking puzzled.

"Nothing really, just depends on whether I want to see him today or not," she answer coolly.

"You sure everything's fine," Kelly asked sounding concerned. 

"Yep," she replied.

She Swivelled round in her chair to look at her sister, Kelly had begun her squat's, she watched her sister bob up and down rhythmically, she sat there in perfect silence for a few moments, just staring at her sisters well-built body in a somewhat envious fashion.  

"What about you, you got anything planned," she asked breaking the silence.

"Naaaa" replied Kelly "Probably go climb or swim or something".

"Fair enough" Kelly said standing up picking up her towel up off the floor.

The water flowed over Alex's skinny naked body and she thought about what Kelly had said. She had lied to her sister nothing was fine between her and Kyle; nothing about them clicked every kiss, every hug felt forced. The sex was ok but nothing amazing. Worse part was she couldn't blame Kyle, He was a great boyfriend he was kind, sweet, funny and fucking hot. But it just didn't sit right with her, she just wasn't into him.

She climbed out the shower, not bothering to cover herself up she strolled back into her room, Kelly was gone.

"Probably off to the centre," she thought.

Her phone buzzed it was Kyle, she answered.

Putting the phone in loud speaker, "Hey" she said.

"You doing anything today?" he asked his voice filling the room.

"Nope, you wanna meet up?" She replied.

"Yeah, cool," Kyle answered.

"Awesome I'll be round soon," she hung up.
