Spin the bottle

            Floor 19 is crazy. From food fights to cussing wars, we got it all. But I never really realized how insane we were until we played Spin the Bottle.

It was a boring afternoon, half-born was pooping, and Mallory and T.J. were watching "Voltron" to which I objected. Who wants to watch a bunch of teens fighting a hot guy with silky white long hair- never mind. Jack was getting cleaned "in order to look more polished and refined for my beautiful Riptide!" I don't understand how that's gonna work but anyways, I was looking for Alex. No reason. Just looking for Alex in order to aah. Fine. I love Alex, okay maybe not "love" yet but I really like them. I swear, my stomach is already in butterflies. Go ahead, cut it open. You'll be surprised. I honestly like everything about Alex, their different color eyes, as if they have different personalities, their freckles that are demanding me to touch them, the way Alex dresses- god even Alex's eyebrows wonder me! They're so perfectly shaped and sexy-

"Hey, Maggie!"

I nearly broke my neck when I heard Alex's voice right behind me, scaring the butterflies out of me.

"Hey! A-Alex? How are ya?" I asked rather, suavely.

"I'm feeling very male at the moment, thanks for asking. Say, wanna do something together?"

Yes. yes. YES!

"Um, that would be cool."

"Maybe we should invite the whole floor?"
No. no. NO!

"Uh yeah, that would be cool." I mentally slapped myself for repeating the same thing again.

"Great! So uh- I'll meet you in two songs at my place?"

"Two songs."
"Three songs."

"FINE," Alex smirked at me, my butterflies can reproduce at a startling rate. Alex started walking away, but all I thought was "I'm not gonna be alone with Alex for a while TAKE ADVANTAGE!"

"Hey, Alex!" I called out

He flipped around, facing me as his hair sexily fell over his eyes, which he patted away, not that I noticed.

"Yeah?" He looked annoyingly cute.

"I-I like your new boots!"

Alex looked surprised. He glanced down at his boots and then turned to look at me. For a second our eyes locked for a second.

"Thanks, Maggie, I didn't think anyone would notice."

I noticed. I always noticed.

"Well, I just wanted to let you know..."

His boots were laced up above his ankle with pink laces. The rest were nice lime green. Only Alex can pull off wearing these.

"Well," Alex began, " I think you look adorable with that shirt on." It was a camp-half blood shirt. It only began to process in my mind that he said "adorable" when he was already walking away.

"Adorable?" I tried to sound like a cute-failed attempt.

Alex twirled around and smirked at me. Then he slipped into T.J.'s room. What the heck just happened? A shower and a song later, I went to Alex's room just like asked. I knocked once and walked into... a room with the entire floor nineteen in a circle with a Coors bottle in the middle. Oh hell no.

"Welcome Magnus!" Mallory sounded scarily happy, "We were waiting for you!"

Is half-born okay?

"Come sit next to me Magnus!" T.J. is just too sweet... a little TOO sweet.
