You've always had a crush on Alex. He's amazing at tennis, funny, cute... he's perfect.
The only problem?
Is that he's straight.
You sigh as you walk into your chemistry class and notice Alex sitting at the desk next to yours. Huh? you think. Why is Alex sitting next to me?
As you sit back down in your seat, Alex takes a quick glance at you, then looks away. You're genuinely confused because he's never even looked your way before. You're not weirded out by this, you're just happy he's acknowledged your existence.(ok so now i'm gonna explain how you're gonna look in this lol for a visual ig, and ofc you can mentally come up with an outfit and stuff i just don't want to be cringy and put in an ugly tumblr outfit from 2016)
(also you wear a lot of rings bc you're seggsy or whateva)
From the perspective of people from your school, they think you're just some "soft boy 🥺" who says "girls never like nice guys 🥺" and use the "🥺" emoji in every sentence. In reality, you just think it's cringe. You just like the style.
And oh, you're the complete opposite of a virgin.
You decide to start conversation because it was getting awkward between you two.
"Umm..." you begin.
"Yes?" Alex quickly turns to face you.
"How has your day been?" You have absolutely no idea how to start conversation besides that. Sad. It's 7:46 am, the day has barely begun.
"It's been going decent so far." He looks down at his desk instead of making eye contact with you. Strange. Usually whenever he's talking to someone he's able to maintain eye contact the entire time.
"Well, y/n.. how about you?"
You are shocked to realize that he even knew your name. You sit there speechless as he calls your name again, trying to get your attention.
"Oh, I'm sorry," you force a laugh. "I was just thinking about something. My day has been good... so far." I make eye contact with him, but he quickly looks away.
"Um... well... I was wondering, do you have Snapchat or anything like that? I just want to keep in contact with you. Not in a weird way, of course." be stutters nervously throughout his sentence.
You end up giving him your snap, which username you created in 5th grade, so it was embarrassing to tell Alex your snap was "wolfmoon671". You still hate yourself for that wolf phase you had.~
At lunch, as usual, you sit by yourself. You've never really had that many friends, but surprisingly you're decent at talking to people. Maybe it's because of talking to other people you were talking to yourself. Another embarrassing thing about yourself. As you're eating your lunch, from the corner of your eye you could see Alex moving towards you.
Why is Alex talking to me now? you ask yourself. He's never talked to me before.
You're not complaining, though. You're just glad he knows you exist.
"Hey y/n!" he smiles at you as he takes a seat next to you. God, you're so in love with him.
Instead of starting a simple conversation, you ask him a question. "Do you have a partner for the project in chemistry?"
"Oh, I don't," he laughs. "My friends are partnered up with each other so I don't have anyone to be with." Strange. He's friends with everyone in this class but doesn't have a partner.
"Well, do you want to be partners?" you ask him.
He agrees and you smile.
As lunch progresses and you and Alex's friendship becomes closer, as Alex is showing you a tiktok from his phone, your thighs touch as you lean to look at his phone. In the middle of it, you catch Alex looking at you and he quickly turns away.
What an idiot. You smile. You both choose to ignore the event and continue on with your lives.~
It's the next day now. Already? It seems like yesterday went by so fast. You wish it could've went by slower, so you could savor your time with Alex.
(LMAOOOO SORRY I JUST DONT KNOW WHAT TO PUT LOL)
As you sit down in your seat, you hear Alex calling your name as he entered the classroom. You turn around to face him and you see a bright smile on his face. Your body warms in infatuation. His smile is adorable, you think to yourself.
"So..?" Alex starts.
"Hm?"
"The project! What are we doing?"
You sigh. "We're choosing chemical compounds, writing them down, and adding a picture of a common example of it. Just like everyone else."
"Oh! Sorry, my bad. I forgot." You both laugh.
As you suffer through your chemistry class, to cure your boredom you decide to send a note to Alex. Why not? It's not like the teacher would care, anyway.
In the note you write:
yhu find as he'll i won't you ❤️
You wonder if he's going to take it seriously. I mean, it wouldn't be so bad if he didn't, you're in love with him anyway.
You pass the note over to him, and you see the corners of his mouth turn up. He flips over the piece of paper, scribbles something, and passes it to you.You let out a small laugh, and respond with on the same sheet of paper-
"What are you two doing?" a annoyed feminine voice spoke as the note was ripped out of your hand.
Well, you definitely weren't expecting the teacher to notice.
"You find as he'll, I won't you? Ayo, why are my legs spreading?" She gasped. "Pins against wall attractively?! I expected better out of you two. Detention in my room after school. Get a room next time."
You glance at Alex, and you both hold in your laugh.
You couldn't help but feel bad for Alex though. You might've just ruined his reputation from that note.
But who cares, it was funny.~
In detention, you and Alex sit next to each other quietly, giving each other the occasional awkward glance.
"You guys have another 30 minutes. I have to go now, you guys stay here until 6:30. Don't do anything funny." The teacher glared at us, then left the room. You and Alex waited a few seconds, then got up and went towards the door.
"Thank God, this has been torture. Wanna go to 7/11 with me?" you sighed.
Alex smiled. "Of course man. You driving?"
"Yeah."
As you and Alex go to grab the door handle, you accidentally grab Alex's hand instead. You whisper a soft "sorry" and you both ignore the incident.
I mean, at least you didn't.
The lights in the 7/11 glowed brightly and your eyes hurt as they adjusted to the brightness.
You grabbed a red Monster from the fridge and a pack of watermelon sour patch kids, while Alex got a BODYARMOR and a snickers bar.
"Hey, I'll pay, it's fine." you offered as you two got to the register.
"Nah, I'll pay, you already drove us here."
"That's fair."
You and Alex drive to an empty parking lot and sit down in your trunk. You and Alex sit in silence, you drinking your monster and alex eating his snickers bar.
"Hey Alex?" you finally spoke.
"Yeah?"
"Have you had your first kiss?" you asked out of curiosity.
"No. It's kind of embarassing."
You both laugh.
Once again you both sit in silence.
"Hey Alex, can I do something?"
"Sure-"
You interrupt him mid-sentence with a passionate kiss on the lips. You grab his face, pulling him in closer. You hoped this would last forever. You'd never think you'd be able to kiss him, ever, let alone be his first kiss. Out of breath, you move away from his lips. "I'm sorry, I-"
"No, it's fine, y/n," Alex said. "Better than I would expect for my first kiss."
