It takes me a while to grasp this situation, I didn't know if I should've just got up and left or should say something to him. I finally make my mind up after a long awkward silence. I got up and started to apologise, I said "Alex, I'm so so very tired and drunk and I just need to rest. So very sorry, I really didn't see you there" he says back so sweetly "Lucy please don't worry about it, do you want me to take you home?" I nodded and he helped me walk out. We have been driving for what feels like 5 hours with this splitting headache. We finally come to a stop and Alex gets out of the car, I look out the car window and realise that this is not my house. Alex opens up my door and helps me out. I stop and say "Alex, this is not my house! Where are we?" He goes "Lucy I brought you to mine because you never answered me when I asked you for your address, and I didn't think you wanted your parents to find out you got this drunk." My head was killing me but I wasn't sure if he had asked me or if this is all a trick so he could take me to his. I'm scared to go inside. I'm sticking with my gut feeling and that's to not go inside. I pull out my phone and start calling Jaz. Alex stares at me and asks "Lucy who are you calling? Please just come inside, it's not like I'm a serial killer. Come on let's get in." I look at him blankly and say "Alex I don't want to offend you but I kinda don't trust this situation, I mean I just don't want to go inside your house. I just met you."
The awkward silence came up again so I decided to just go in his house, yes this may be the most stupid thing I have done my whole life but there is apart of me that does trust him. He holds out his hand and I grab it, we both walk into his house. It smells like scented candles, it was very strange. Our hands let go of each other and he walks to go and switch on the lights, the lights turn on and the house is huge! Not what i expected. His parents must be doing well in whatever business they own. I looked up at Alex and he looked down at me, our height difference was huge. I start walking around just to get a feel of this gorgeous house, as I'm walking around I keep looking at the house and then Alex to try and put them two together. He has such a wild personality and his house has like a rich stuck up boy vibe. He notices me looking at him and says "did you expect something different?" I said back "well.... I wasn't expecting your house to be so large" he goes "I'm not really into huge houses, my dads a doctor and my mum is a well known lawyer so that's where this all comes from". Holy shit, I didn't know what to say to that, I can't top it. My mum works as a dog groomer and my dad well he isn't in the picture. So I can defiantly not top his life.
He grabs me a glass of water and tells me to drink it all for my headache to go away. I scull it and put the glass on the table. We start talking about random stuff, pretty much just about school haha. I asked him if he could take me home and he did.

Back at school! Great Jaz is going to want to know why I called her and why I left her and Emily, they both came running straight to me, they skid to stop. I look at them in a way that is saying 'I don't want to talk about it' yet as all friends do they started talking anyway. I just started walking straight to hopefully get out of this, Jaz and Emily both stopped. Jaz then spoke nicely saying "what happened?" where do I even begin. "I got pretty drunk at the party and i bumped into Alex and he took me to his house to rest up" I said that so swiftly just to get it out of my system and hopefully they will be too shocked to ask any more questions, but that was not the case. Emily said "OMG!!! I can't believe you went home with alex! Why wouldn't you call me?" "look I wasn't in my right mind, but nothing happened I promise" I said with an annoyed tone. They both looked at me and finally both said at the same time "fine".
We started walking to our first period which was unfortunately history, i really couldn't be bothered with Alex right now, I don't want to remember the night I had with him (well not with him but you know what i mean). Jaz, Emily and I walk to the back of the class to sit down, after a few minutes Alex walks in with a huge smile on his face, he looks at me and our yes connect for a few seconds, then I look away. I start feeling this emotion I haven't felt in a while, when Alex sat down I started feeling all happy... what the hell is going on. Please don't tell me I've fallen for Alex.
