Chapter Thirty-
_Alex's POV_
11:45am
After we all went our separate ways, agreeing to meet up for dinner tonight, Jack dragged me out of the hotel and back into my car. I pouted at him."Why can't I drive?" I asked him, "It is my car," I pointed out to him, but he only grinned shaking his head. Instead of arguing any further, I just sank back into my seat, knowing that Jack was not going to give in.
I heard him chuckle, and instead of saying anything to me, he just reached his hand over and grasped mine, intertwining our fingers together. Despite my efforts, a smile appeared on my face as I looked over at my best friend and my boyfriend, who was giving me a goofy smile, before he turned his attention back to the road, keeping his hand in mine. I smiled, before looking down at our hands.
I grinned, thinking about how this was my life. Ignoring the drama I had to deal with, I had a kick ass life. I had the perfect boyfriend, friends, somewhat loving parents, and add to that the always present high school drama. I know that it's incredibly cheesy, but it was perfect to me. I had everything I've always wanted and so much more, all thanks to Jack and my friends. Looking down at our hands made me realize we had been together for almost 4 years, all through high school, and we only had one major fight, but I preferred not to think about that fight, all I'll say is that it happened at the beginning soft more year and it was the worst year of my life.
I sighed, almost dreamily, as I looked over at Jack, who was glancing back and forth between me and the road. I grinned at him, pulling his hand up to my lips and kissing the back of his hand. Jack looked over at me, his eyes starring back at mine for what felt like forever, before he turned back to the road. "So, Jacky, where are we going?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. Jack grinned, shaking his head and keeping his eyes on the road.
"Nope. That my dear Lexi, is a surprise." He told me, quickly leaning over and pressing a quick kiss on my nose at a red light. I rolled my eyes at him, repressing a smile. This was what my life always was. Jack was constantly doing things like this, cheesy and romantic stuff that made me hate and love him. Being cheesy was part of his charm after all, and I loved him for that.
"Give me a hint?" I asked him, pouting when he looked at me. I saw the look on contemplation cross his face, and with a groan he gave into my pleading.
"Okay, okay. Just one," He said, grinning at me when he looked at me, "You'll love it." He told me, smirking as he turned back to the road. This time, I groaned, shrinking back further into my seat. Damn it, Jack. I shook my head at him, sticking my tongue out at him the next time he looked at me. He squeezed my hand, laughing. "Don't worry babe, I swear you will love it." He told me, grinning at me. I sighed, nodding my head and sitting up a little, squeezing his hand back.
After that, we were both somewhat quiet, me playing with Jack's fingers occasionally when he'd give me his hand, and him driving. Eventually, the silence got to me and I grabbed a CD that was laying randomly in his car, grinning when I saw that it was Blink 182, Take Off Your Pants And Jacket. (A/N- It's my favorite Blink album, sue me.) I wouldn't say that was my favorite album by them, that was saved for Enema of the State, but it was an amazing album, so, shrugging I put it in.
Almost immediately, it started blaring Anthem Part Two. I grinned, turning it up a little, which made Jack chuckle beside me. I rolled my eyes at him, humming along and singing along to the words.
By the time Jack parked where ever the hell it was we were going, both Jack and I were singing along fully, and laughing every now and then. We hadn't even gotten to our date yet, and so far, everything was perfect.
I groaned when Jack turned off the car, stopping the music in the middle of a song. Jack just chuckled, grinning innocently at me, even though we both knew he was anything but innocent. Moments later we were both getting out of my car, him tossing me the keys. I raised an eyebrow at him as we walked away from the car, him leading.
Jack shrugged, "I thought it was always fair since it is your car." He told me, shrugging his shoulders as we both walked to wherever we were going. I nodded, smiling a little. "So, since we're almost there, I'll tell you where we are going." Jack said, wrapping an arm around my waist as we walked. I was highly aware of the stares we got from those around us, both accepting and disgust, but none of that seemed to bother Jack. He never really cared what people thought about our relationship, and that was one of the reasons I had fallen so hard for him. "We, my Lexi, are going to a beach." He told me. And just like that, my eyes must have lit up. I don't really know why, but Jack and I have always had a thing for hanging out at beaches. It was just kind of our thing.
_Jack's POV_
I grinned, watching as Alex's whole face lit up when I mentioned going to beaches. I'll never understand why we always go to beaches on our dates, but I know that I don't want that to change. It was one of the things I loved about our relationship.
I laughed when Alex pulled me along with him, going in the direction of the beach. I'll never know he knew where to go, but he led us in the right direction and soon enough, we were pulling off our shoes and walking in the sand. Just like whenever we were walking here, people gave us looks, most of them grossed out and outraged, but I didn't even look at them. It didn't matter what anyone thought about Alex and I. We were in love and just because a couple of homophobic dicks didn't like it, didn't mean we were going to stop dating and change who we were. We were gay, and hell I was definitely proud to be. Alex, on the other hand, was as open about our relationship. He wouldn't ever let go my hand whenever people starred at them, and he didn't ever deny it when people asked if we were dating. But I had always been gay, and Alex, well, let's just say I may have been the one who changed him.
When we walked up to the edge of the water, Alex pulled me closer to him. I raised an eyebrow, but didn't move away. Like I said early, Alex was shy about our relationship, so we hardly ever kissed in public, just occasionally whenever I was trying to piss of some homophobic people. Alex smiled at my confused look, placing his hand on my cheek. I grinned at him, leaning my cheek against his hand and looking into his eyes. He sighed, looking back in my own eyes, before he leaned in, closing the small distance between the two of us quickly.
I was surprised by the sudden act of PDA, but I didn't fight it. I let him pull his hand away, and wrap his arm around my neck, his hand resting on the back of my neck, keeping me there. I moved my arms around his waist quickly, deepening our kiss. Like I said, PDA was very rare with us outside of our school and in public places, so I was going to enjoy one of these rare moments.
Alex sighed in the kiss, pressing himself closer to me, if that was even possible. I grinned when we pulled away for a quick breath, before pressing my lips against his, letting myself get lost in him. We stood there, getting lost in each other until we heard someone mutter fags, bumping Alex's shoulder hard whenever they walked by. I pulled away from our kiss immediately, prepared to yell at the asshole, but Alex put his hand on my shoulder, making me look at him.
He shook his head, sighing a little. "Forget about it." He told me, smiling a little and grabbing my hand. I smiled at him a little, squeezing his hand, and still trying to calm myself down, both sexually (A/N- .... No Jack. No.) and mentally. I was still beyond pissed at that guy, but I was still thinking about our sudden kiss a few minutes ago, apparently, Alex had the same thought as I did.
"How about we head back to hotel for a while, you know, before we have to out with everyone else?" He suggested, grinning. Quickly, I nodded, pulling him back to his car, him laughing at me slightly while we walked. This was the perfect life.
