Double Date (BEING RE-WRITTEN) Lams-Destiel

Chapter 5

The next morning...

"Hey, Alex, could you come help me out here?" 

He walked over to John's desk. "Sure, what do you need?"

"You're a better writer than me."

"Okay?"

"I need to write this essay for History, but-"

"Essay? History?" He pushed John out the way, his wheeled chair carrying him across the room. "My specialties, don't worry, I'll get you a perfect grade in no time!"

"Alex, you really don't need to write the whole thing, I just needed some pointers."

"Relax Turtles, I'm only making minor adjustments."

John blushed. "What did you call me?"

"Oh, sorry. That just slipped out."

"It's cute, say it again." He teased.

"Well, now I'm never calling you that again!" Alex smiled and turned his head to the right, not expecting John's face to be there.

 They looked into each other's eyes. Alex's gaze moved down to John's lips - 'his perfect lips'- and travelled his eyes back up to John's. Which were now looking at his. John put his hand against his face and pulled him closer. Just as their lips met, someone knocked at their door.

 They reluctantly pulled apart. "What?" Alex called.

"Just let me in!" Peggy's voice came back. She sounded stressed.

 John got up and opened the door, and Peggy rushed in.

 "Have you seen Angelica?!"

 He had never heard Peggy's voice like this: so full of panic. Eliza was just stood in the doorway, taking quick, shallow breaths something was seriously wrong.

 "What the hell happened?"

"Just answer the question. Have you seen her?!" She yelled.

"No, not since yesterday."

She paced around the room, muttering rapidly to herself. The only thing he could understand was when her voice got gradually louder. 

"This is all my fault. This is all my fault! THIS IS ALL MY FAULT!" She screamed, clutching her head in her hands.

 John sat her down on the edge of his bed, and put an arm around her. "What happened?"

"Angie told us what happened during the missing year. We told her she could tell us anything, and we're here for her. But I was too hurt she wouldn't tell us sooner. I lost it and got really mad at her. Now she's gone again, and it's all my fault!" She sobbed into his shoulder.

 John hugged her; she was one of his best friends and he hated seeing her like this. He lifted her head up to face him. "We'll find her, okay? I promise." 

She nodded and wiped the tears from her face. John tried to think what they could do. 

"Umm... have you tried calling her?" 

Peggy looked at him like he was stupid. "No, my sister disappeared after an argument and my first thought wasn't to pick up the phone and call her." Her slightly shaky voice thick with sarcasm "Of course I tried calling her! Called her about 20 times, keeps going to voicemail."

Alex threw John's jacket at him. "Let's go."

"What? Where?"

"We're gonna wake Dean and Cas, then Gabe, and Herc and Laf. Because we are going to find Angelica."

Peggy gave him a grateful smile. The four of them headed down the hall toward Dean and Cas's dorm. Eliza still hadn't said anything, but Alex was helping her control her breathing to stop hyperventilating.
