(Jessica's pov)
I awoke to an ed sheran song. thinking out loud. I stretched and looked around me. Alex was right next to me. he looked really cute asleep. I laid back down a and looked at Alex as he slept. he was too cute when he slept. I've only seen him slept two times. but he was still adorable when he slept. After a few more minutes of staring, Alex slowly awoke. he sits up and wipes his eyes, then looks at me as I sit up.
"Good morning." said Alex in a raspy voice
"Good morning." I said and sighed
"What time is it?" asked Alex
"I don't know, let me check..." my voice led off as I looked for my phone, then it hit me like a ton of bricks," Shit." I swore under my breath," What?" asked Alex," I don't even have my phone." I said causing him to chuckle," Yeah, it's literally with the fishes now." Said Alex making me giggle," Yeah." I said then ran my fingers through my hair and remembering that awesome feeling of relief," Wait what's today?" I asked," Monday." said Alex smiling," Wait- what?" I asked shocked and completely freaking out," Don't worry, we've worked hard and haven't even missed that many days, so we can just take a ditch day today." said Alex making my calm down," Okay, so what shall we do for our ditch day?" I asked," I don't know, how about go see a movie." suggested Alex," That sounds awesome, can we invite Abby and Matt? I haven't seen them in so long." I said," Yeah, that would be awesome." said Alex then we stretch," But first, where do you wanna go for breakfast?" asked Alex," How about Mc Donalds." I suggested," Sounds awesome." said Alex then got up," No, please don't make me get up." I begged being lazy," C'mon I'm hungry." begged Alex," Fine." I said as Alex grabbed both of my hands in his and pulled me up," Thank you." said Alex then kisses me softly on my lips," You're welcome." I said then we got off of the truck and went down to the passengers side. Alex got into the drivers seat and turned on the car and the radio. Lazy song by Bruno Mars was lightly playing in the back round. I look out the window and look at the road underneath us as we drove down the street now leaving the beach.
I look ahead of me and is puzzled to see Police cars parked by the bridge. There was yellow police tape reading crime scene. I tried to look at what was happening but I couldn't see anything over the police and curious crowd of teens and adults. I laid back in my seat and tried to brush the image out of my head," Wow, what do you think happened?" asked Alex Looking over at me then back at the road," I don't know...but I wonder what did happen." I said then looked back outside and stared at the road as we drove.
We got to Mc Donalds and stopped in the parking lot. Alex looks over at me,"Do you wanna eat inside or just wanna take it somewhere and eat there?" Asked Alex,"Yeah, let's go inside." I said,"Okay, here we go." Said Alex as we both get up and out of our seats. We intertwine our hands and walk into Mc Donalds. We both order ourselves breakfast sandwitches and coffee and make small talk.
"So how's you mom?" I asked
"Please come for a visit son, i miss you so much." Said Alex mocking his mom,"Does she still hate me?" I asked,"Um...I don't know." Said Alex. She did. He ran his hands through his hair and looked around trying to not keep eye contact with me. I sip on my coffee and dug my hands into my sweater pockets to try to get my phone, which i didn't have. It was much of a habit to me to get bored or in an awkward postion i would just check out twitter or facebook. But in this case i just sipped on my coffee," So whatcha wanna do today since we're skipping?" I asked,"Well i don't know, what do you think we should do?" Asked Alex,"hm...how about we go to the mall so i can buy myself a new phone since my other one is now literally sleeping with the fishes." I said mocking Alex which causes Alex to chuckle,"Okay." Said Alex geting up, grabbing our trash, throwing it away and then we both go to the car to head to the mall.
