Unexpected (Ace Frehley)

fuck

I wake up to find him peacefully sleeping next to me. I carefully climb over him and look at the clock. It's already 10 am. Shit. I have a dentist appointment at 10:30. I rush to get dressed and make my way out of the appartment.

It's a cold morning, but the sun still shines gold in the morning. I take a cab and a moment to think about what happened. Fuck, what have i gotten myself into. I don't even know if i really like him. Probaply, but i don't know and now i have to live with it. What even are we now, we fucked but nothing more, right?

I finished my apointment at the doctor and went straight over to Alex her house.

I bang on the door. "Alexa open the fuck up, i fucked up". The door opens and there stands Steven. Uh that was not expected. When i realise i have been staring stupidly. "Looks like you guys also did some shit". He looks at me and after i realise i said what i said. "Also?"
My eyes widen. "Bye Steven". I practically kick him out. He was probaply already ready to leave. "Jesus christ". "Alex i have a problem". She looks at me worried, "Oh god". "I fucked him". A huge grin appeared on her face, she's defenitly interested in this. "So what's the problem". "That, everything". Well it may be a little dramatic. "I don't even know what we are". She gives me a cup of water. "Listen i can't give you advice on that, i haven't experienced that". "But you fucked Steven last night". She giggled, "okay, but i don't live with him. Have you talked to him this morning?" I trie to remember but i don't even think i woke him. "No, i don't think so". She sits down across from me. "Well i think you have two options. Either talk to him or.. pretend it didn't happen". I stop to think about it. If i talk to him and he doesn't want a relationship than it's just akward living with him for i don't know how long, but if i just pretend it didn't happen, it won't be that different and if he wants to talk to me he'll come to me right? "Okay, okay". She jokingly mokks me with her hands "wauw Alex your so heplfull, thank you so much, i will now think about what i do." I roll my eyes but can't help to laugh. "Your humor is dead". "Says you". I stand up and walk to the door. "I'll see you tonight, thank you". She smiles warmly. "See ya tonight". "I love you". I walk out the door and dread to return home.

I open the door and notice he's not here. Thank god. I put on a record and enjoy the music, clearing my head. There's this gut feeling inside of me telling me there is something wrong and it will affect me but i can't figger out what it is.

I take a shower and go to work hoping when i come back, Ace is not there. I'm just scared he will reject me or say something bad about last night, it's not that i don't want to be with him, well not yet, i think.

"Hey Sav". Alexa says. "Hey". "Already talked to Ace?" "No he wasn't there when i came back". She stoppes to think for a second. "Oh, maybe he's thinking about what happened too". "Hmm, is that really something he would do". "Just saying, i don't really know him". I smirk saying, "but you know Steven". She knows what i mean by it and i can't help but giggle a little. "Oh you fucker". She says thro gritted teeth. "Just kidding, don't kill me haha".

I look around seeing a fimiliar face walk in. The guy who gave me the 100 dollar bill. I go over to take his order. "Hello, can i get you something to drink". I ask him to take a better look at his face confirming it's really him. "A beer please". "Ofcourse, i want to thank you for the money from last time, i appriciate it". A small smile forms on his face. "I really enjoyed talking to you so". "I also enjoyed it".
I make him the beer and return to give it to him. "Would you mind having another confersation?" I look around seeing nobody needs any help at the moment and i sit down. "So you have you been Mr..?" "Call me Jonathan, i've been good and you". "I'm glad, i don't really know actually". "What's the matter?" I question wether i should tell it or not, but it's sometimes easier to talk to a stranger than just a person you will see again. I take a deep breath. "Well i have a roommate and i don't know if i like him or not and yesterday we ended up having.. you know and now i still haven't talked to him and i don't know if i really want to".
I don't mind talking about relationships with him because he told me about his last time so it's nice to get this of my chest, altough Alexa really helps, it's nice to have two different opinions. "Well, i can't do much for you but let me tell you. If he's sure about what he wants he will do something, look at yourself. You don't know if you want to talk to him or not so you don't do it, but if you do want to talk to him you will. Maybe he also thinks about it that way and he isn't sure yet. The time will come someday". It makes sense what he says. "But what if he really doesn't want to talk to me, just not at all". "Then you will notice how he behaves, if you don't see him at all he won't even be there when you wake up, if you do see him and you just don't talk than you can assume it's not that bad". He's probaply right. I'll see how tommorow goes. "Thank you really".

Shift ends and Ace sits at the bar waiting for me to drive us home. I don't think it's that bad when he still comes to pick me up.

We step in the car, neither of us saying something and drive home. I guess what happened last night was pure lust, i did want to do it with him but did he really want to do it with me. Maybe he's only here so he won't feel bad about what happens if he doesn't come to pick me up.

We arrive at the appartment still saying nothing and both go to bed.
