It's February, me and Alex went on a few more dates. I'm cleaning my apartment. Trying to get rid of some things. I'm singing along to "I miss the misery" by Halestorm. Frank and his son Brandon decided to visit and help. They were getting lunch at a nearby restaurant. I didn't realize that Sammy and Alex walked in.
"I miss the bad things. The way you hate me," I sang, "I miss the screaming. The way that you blame me."
"Is Laci okay?" Asked Alex
"Miss the phone calls. When it's your fault," I sang, "I miss the late nights. Don't miss you at all."
"No, she needs a stable relationship," says Sammy, "she needs you, Alex."
"Sammy isn't wrong, Alex." Says Frank
"Laci," says Brandon, "we brought you something to eat."
"Thanks, Brandon." I said
Brandon sat down next to me. Alex, Frank, and Sammy sat down on my couch while they were still talking about something. Brandon and I are talking about me joining Sabaton as a drummer. I told him that I'm thinking about it. Brandon asked if I'm ready for the new Lamb of God tour with Five finger death punch and Black label society. I looked at Alex and then at the food that Brandon and Frank brought me.
"Laci, are you okay?" Asked Brandon
"I will be." I mumbled
"You still like him, don't you." Says Brandon
"I'm in love with him," I said, "I don't know if he feels the same."
"What are you two talking about?" Asked Frank
"Oh, me being in love with Alex." I said
"You two went on how many dates?" Asked Frank
"Four since Christmas Eve, right?" Said Brandon
"Brandon is right." I mumbled
"I think he has a thing for you, Laci." Says Alex
"He what?" I said Loudly
Both Alex and Sammy looked over at us. I started to have a panic attack. Brandon helped me to my bedroom and stayed with me. We sat on the edge of my bed. Alex walks in and sits down on the opposite side of me. Brandon tells me that he will get water for me. Alex places a hand on my lap.
"Laci, I should come out with my feelings." Said Alex
"Alex?" I said
"I loved you when I first met you back in November." Said Alex
"Really?" I asked
"Yes." Said Alex
"Alex, I had the biggest crush on you when I started to listen to Testament," I said, "I.... Um.... I love you too."
"Laci." Says Frank
"Yes, Frankie." I said
"What would you like to do with your Ex's things?" Asked Frank
"Chuck them or give them to goodwill." I said
Frank left us alone in my bedroom. Sammy tells us that she is helping Frank and Brandon carry boxes of my ex's things to goodwill. They eventually left Alex and I alone in my apartment. Alex pulls my body closer to his. He kissed my forehead. I put my hand on his chest. Alex pulls me into a kiss. When we stopped kissing, he rested his forehead on my forehead.
"Laci, will you be my girlfriend?" Asked Alex
"Yes, Alex," I said, "I would love to."
"About time." Said Sammy
