First week of school's over, second week gone, third week disappeared, and fourth week is here. Nothing big has really happened so far. Well beside little Jimmy becoming a part of our tiny group, Chloe got the courage to make a move. It was probably a bit too big of a move, I wouldn't really suggest having sex when you're sixteen, but you know that was Chloe's choice. Now they're all gross and lovey dovey, so I've been ignoring them slightly.
"You know you guys don't need to be making out all the time. It's slightly disturbing, not in public," Alec said one day, a grin at the corner of his mouth. Chloe let's her lips slip from his about a minute after he said it.
"Oh shut it you," Chloe snapped, but nonetheless she left Jimmy instead grabbing his hand.
"You two are too...eek," Eliza decided. It was then that I realised; it isn't only me who was becoming slightly agitated, everyone else was as well, but maybe if Alec and I were together we'd be the same, well we'll never know.
"S-s-sorry," little Jimmy apologised slowly.
"Babe, don't apologise to them." Chloe demanded.
"Thank you Jimmy," I say smiling at him.
"W-W-What?" he asks, I ignore it and look at Alec.
"Be nice Al."
"Thanks Gene, at least someone's nice!" Chloe says, glaring at Eliza and Alec.
"I don't plan on being nice any time soon, being nice is bland," Eliza states, then gets up. "I have some studying to do, bye!"
"Bye El." we all say in unison, well other than Jimmy who is watching Chloe closely.
"Oh stop eye balling her Jim Jim Jimmy booooooy," Alec says.
"Alec!" I screech at him.
"Yes?" he replies in a singsong voice.
"Get up, come on," I stand up and pull him up. "Seeya Chloe-"
"Seeya Jimmy!" he interrupts.
"Come on Sherlock," I say rolling my eyes.
"If I'm Sherlock, then you're Watson!"
"Oh sweetie," I pat his chest. "I called you Sherlock, because your last name's Holmes, genius."
"I knew that!"
"Sure you did," I say in a demeaning tone.
"That's it! You now owe me a ride home my noble stead!" he demands jumping on my back. But he jumped to strong and I topple over.
"Ugh," I roll over, looking up at him. "My turn, horsey!" I push him up. "Get up!"
"I'm doing it, I'm doing it!' he scrambles up and off of me. I jump up quickly and then on to his back.
"Giddy up, horsey!" I grin widely, my arms resting on his chest. He gallops off.
"Where to?" he asks in a husky voice.
"Hmm, your place my stead!" I pat his chest as he gallops off.
Now I should probably explain about Alec's family. Well, when Alec was born his father left him and went to America. He came back three years later, but he wasn't exactly the best father at all. He went and saw Alec once a month and gave him a toy occasionally, ignoring his mother the whole time and he never gave Child Support to her, he never really cared about her in the first place. The only reason she allowed him to see Alec, was for Alec's sake, she thought it would be better for her son if he knew his father, she was wrong, well I think so at least, I think he's a jerk. He was around until around the time Alec was seven. He went back to America. All that time Alec was deprived of his father (I think it was good for him to tell the truth, not so much his mum though). In that time his father had become father to a little girl Elizabeth, who he was no better a father to, probably worse, especially once he found out she had autism. A little after Alec turned thirteen his father came back. He came and saw Alec once. His mother was still working at a little shoe store, she didn't get much pay and had just found someone. She was happy finally, well until Alec's father's little visit. He didn't intend to pay Child Support or even be nice to any of them, well other than Alec, he got Alec's hopes up though. That was his last time though, he never came back. In a year's time Alec's mum's boyfriend had proposed. They're getting married late this year. Oh and she just had a baby, a little girl, her name is Isabelle. So yeah, that's about it.
"Hurry up!" I say as he gallops around the corner. He gallops faster then slows down when he gets to the gate of their front garden. Leanne (his mum), Christopher (her boyfriend) and Isabelle are sitting in grass, trying to get Isabelle to walk. Alec opens the gate and trots in. I jump off his back and run over to Isabelle picking her up and holding her up above me. She giggles like she always does.
"How are you beautiful girl? Huh?" I say, trying not to use a baby voice. She babbles happily in response. "Hey guys."
"Hey beautiful," Leanne says smiling at me. Alec runs over and takes Isabelle out of my arms.
"Yoink!" he exclaims as he takes her from me.
"Oi!" I laugh, then walk over to them, looking over Alec's shoulder, I stroke her cheek with the back of my index finger. I then look over at Leanne. "She has your green eyes Lee, and your blonde hair Chris." They look at one another, and grin, then they kiss quickly. I'm glad Lee's finally happy, it's about time.
"Not you guys as well, ugh!" Alec grunts.
"What?" Chris asks looking over at us.
"Chloe and Jimmy, have been all over each other lately, ugh," I answer before Alec has the chance.
"Oh, when did this happen?" Chris asks, he's been trying to take an interest in Alec, ever since they got engaged.
We talk for quite a bit, then it starts to get dark so we go inside, Alec and I bathe Isabelle, then read her a story and take her to bed. We sit and watch her sleep for a while.
"What's the time?" I whisper looking over at Alec.
"Don't know, why?" he replies just as quietly.
"Wondering whether I should get home soon..."
"You can stay if you like..?"
"Yeah, okay," I shrug. He get's up and pats my thigh walking to the door.
"Come on."
"I'm coming," I sigh getting up, I look at Isabelle one more time, before walking through the door. We walk into the lounge room.
"Gene's staying the night," he explains walking through the room and into the kitchen. I roll my eyes and sit down on the couch.
"So Gene any boys you like? Hmm?" Leanne asks grinning as she rests her head on Chris' chest.
"Uh, no..." I say, the blood rushing to my cheeks.
"Oh come on, there's gotta be someone."
"Nah there isn't..." I meet her gaze for a second then look over to the door which leads to the kitchen. Leanne looks up at Chris and whispers something then they grin.
"You guys want ice-cream?" Alec calls from the kitchen.
"Ya," I reply.
"No thanks sweetie," Leanne says.
"Yes please!" Chris calls. Alec comes back in a couple minutes with three bowls of ice-cream. One bigger than the others. He passes a smaller bowl to Chris then sits down beside me passing me a small one also. He keeps the big one for himself.
We sit there eating for a bit, chatting as well. Once much later Isabelle starts crying, so I go and check on her, and rock her back to sleep. When I go back into the living room Leanne is yawning and getting up, so is Chris.
"We're going to bed, don't stay up long," Leanne says with a yawn, and they leave. I sit back down and look up at Alec.
"You know, how I'm extremely annoyed by Chloe and Jimmy being all over each other?" he asks.
"Yeah..?"
"Well, I don't think I can really judge, I mean I've never had my first kiss, or had sex, or anything like that..."
"And what you're trying to say is..?"
"I don't really know...but if I had maybe I wouldn't judge them as much..."
"Get to the point!"
"Well, I think I want to..."
"Want to have sex?" when I said that I didn't realise at first that it could have sounded like me asking him if he wanted to have sex with me, blood rushes to my cheeks when I realise.
"Yeah...or at least have my first kiss, I mean seriously, I'm 16 and I still haven't had my first kiss, it's a tad pathetic."
"Anyone in mind you want to shack it up with?" I raise my eyebrow smirking at him.
"No, not really. Hey Gene, you haven't had yours either have you?" he asks grinning at me.
"No I haven't...now can we drop the topic!"
"Buuuuut Gene!" he whines.
"Oh shut it."
"Just gimme a kiss Geeeene! Pleeeeease!"
"You're insane."
"I just want one! Then we're done forever, I promise! No strings attatched just one pretty little kiss!"
"No strings attatched?" I grin slightly. "Does that mean I never have to see you again? Oh pretty please say it does!"
"Yeah okay whatever."
"Sure you want to do this?"
"Yeah, I really am." he leans down, and is about to kiss me, when we both crack up laughing. "Okay, come on, for real now." he moves a hair out of my face. Then he brings his face to mine, he presses his lips against mine and I move my lips with his. He pulls off a minute later a smile pulling at the corner of his lips.
"Happy now?" I ask.
"Yeah" he grins at me. "But never again! Shall we kiss."
"Uh huh," I reply nodding slowly.
"I'll get you a blanket or something, you can sleep on the couch if ya want, or I will, I'm cool with the latter."
"You're an idiot, I'll sleep on the couch."
We get up early in the morning, and go to school, at the front gate there is a group of people in our year, talking about something. I spot Chloe Jimmy and Eliza in the group and walk around and over to them.
"What's going on?" I ask. Alec isn't paying attention to us, he's staring at the one girl in our school who unbuttons her shirt at the top so you can see her breasts, Milly Jackson. She's also the prettiest girl in our school, but that's only on the outside, she's a complete bitch on the inside. Oh and she's slept with half the boys in our year, but Alec's a guy and she has boobs that he can see, plus her skirt is extremely short, may as well be underwear, but I doubt she wears undies.
"Milly's having a party and she's invited half the school, you gonna go?" Chloe replies.
"I don't know. Oi Alec!" I call, he turns around looking at me.
"You know, I think I'd like every girl better if they dressed like Milly...or, or, if they didn't even wear clothes."
"Oh you man whore," I whack him hard in the gut. "You going to go to her party?"
"Hell yeah!"
"You realise, going doesn't guarantee you a spot in her almost none existent pants."
"Yeah...but it does..."
"If you're trying to say that she's a skank and she'll do you any way, then you are correct sir!"
"What have you got against her?"
"Look at her! Wait no don't, otherwise you'll never tear your eyes off her breasts."
"Buut Gene!"
"Oi, eyes over here, or I'll make you look over here and you know what I mean by that." he turns around and looks at me,
"I see no problems with the way she looks."
"That's because you're a guy, Chloe, Eliza, you guys with me on this one?"
"Uh huh, of course." Eliza replies looking at Milly.
"Yep," Chloe says.
"See?" I ask Alec.
"You guys just wish you could look that good in these rubbish uniforms."
"Sorry?" I cough. "All she's done is pull her skirt up really high and unbuttoned her top buttons."
"Sure..." I look and Eliza and Chloe pleadingly. So we all pull our skirts up really high, then unbutton our top buttons.
"Alec..." I say once we're done, he's been staring at Milly whilst we were doing that.
"Yeah?" he turns around and his eyes widen more, looking at Chloe and Eliza then at me, he grins. "All this for little old me?"
"It's not for you, it is to prove a point to you." I explain. "Also you can stop looking there, my eyes are up here. I'm sorry, I've always wanted to say that."
"Yeah of course you have..." he replies, whilst a wiggle my skirt back down, and do up a couple of my buttons.
"Hey guys," Milly says walking over to our little group. I roll my eyes and look and ChloeJensen and Eliza, Chloe hasn't fixed her uniform yet, but she is all over Jimmy, and Eliza has fixed her's.
"Hi," we all say in unison, well except Chloe and Jimmy they're a tad late.
"Did you guys like totally wanna come to like my party this Saturday, like it's going to be heaps of fun."
"Yeah I'll come!" Alec says eagerly, moving towards her slowly.
"I guess..." I say.
"Maybe..." the other three say.
"Awesome!" she exclaims.
"So how's your boyfriend Milly? Who is it this time?"
"Oh, no one, not at the moment at least, I'm as single as can be." she says with a smile.
"Come on? Really? Haven't been having sex with anyone at the moment?"
"Oh well I wouldn't say that exactly, I just don't have a boyfriend."
"Okay, oh and you might want to pull your skirt down a little, and re-button your top buttons, you appear a tad skankish to me."
"Thanks Geneveive." she changes it and looks at Alec. She appears a completely different person, and it's when she does that, that I realise that she really doesn't have a very pretty face.
"Bye!" Alec exclaims, she walks away, pulling her skirt up as she walks. "Okay now I see it."
"You're welcome."
"But I still wouldn't mind doing anything with her..." he smirks.
"You're unbelievable," I walk away.
"Gene!" he calls after me. I ignore it and continue forward.
I crawl into a supply closet, and sit by the door holding it closed. I put my head back grunting. I've realised now, that that kiss last night really didn't mean anything at all, it's still the same and nothing's going to change, with us, ever, so I should just stop crying, and stop these tears! But that doesn't seem to be happening, because sadly for me, I'm in love with him.
