Take a Chance

Chapter 27 (Zack's POV)

Oh shit what time is it? I have an exam today.

I open my eyes and I see Alex's sleeping face right next to mine. It would be nice if I could see this every morning when i wake up.

Oh yeah right the exam. I need to check the time. Its just 10.

I need to get ready and revise.

I stayed with Alex for another 5min and I just looked at her.

What is she dreaming about? I wonder.

Before leaving I gave her a kiss on her cheek. They're so soft and pink. Just can't help it.

I need to eat, take a shower and revise.

Its business exam today.

Im going to take a shower first. I went in the shower and I started thinking about the exam and what I need to remember.

I need to remember what NLP stand for. What accounting acronym FIFO mean? And who wrote the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People?

I feel like eating cereal today.

I got out of shower and I didn't put any clothes on and just wrapped a towel around my waist.

I don't think that Alex will wake up any time soon so it should be fine.

If she sees me like this she would blush a lot and scold me. I actually wouldn't mind that right now. That would cheer me up a bit. Just seeing her face would be enought.

I should sneeck into her room before leaving and receive a good luck charm from her.

I made some coffee and cereal. As I was making breakfast Nick came out from our room and sat down with me.

"G-morning, you look like shit" I said and laughed a little teasing him. I placed a cup of coffee right in front of him.

"Morning, yeah I know couldn't sleep last night" Nick replied as he took the cup of coffee.

"Cuz of the exam?" I asked as I sat down.

"No, its something else, something that has nothing to do with the exams, something personal" Nick said

"Haha" I started laughing at him.

"What is it? something to do with that special girl of yours?" I asked after I finished laughing.

"What? How'd you guess?" Nick said surprised.

"You said 'something' three times in one sentance, that's not something people do often. So I just guessed" I said calmly.

"Yeah, I plan on confessing, but don't know how or where or when" Nick said everything really fast.

"Look at you, all grown up thinking about how to ask a girl out. I thought I would never live to this day" I said teasing him some more.

"Look who's talking. Aren't you going to confess?" Nick asked me.

After we moved to live with Alex we changed a lot. Nick became more confident and can interact with people better, he fell for someone as well. After Mom died I tried really hard to make him act like he does now, but I couldn't make it happen and Alex did it so easily. She's like our present from the god. Hah, something like that, I guess. And even me, I changed a lot. I stopped flirting and sleeping with any chick that I find attractive. Maybe Cuz I fell for someone as well! But I don't know if I should confess. She doesn't even react when I touch her or when we're close she acts normal. If she'd like me then she would have a different reaction. She doesnt even mind sleeping in the same bed with me. I think that even other girls would feel nervous being in the same bed with a guy.
