Should I choose?

Chapter Nineteen

Hello guys 👋...what's popping?

Mike's POV

We were now on our way home. Alex offered to give me a ride since he didn't think we should do the talking at Ann's. The ride was awkward, Alex didn't say anything and I didn't know what to say because I didn't know why he was acting strangely.

"You have been avoiding me the entire day today." I stated staring above Alex's head. He pretended he did not get what I said so I repeated.

"I have done no such thing." He said focusing on the road intently shifting on his seat.

"You didn't give me a hug today, we didn't do our handshake, we weren't sitting on the same sofa at Ann's, you didn't bring my favorite chocolate, you didn't call me bean, you didn't pinch my cheeks today, and more and more. Why so?" I listed.

"You don't remember what happened at the party, do you?" He asked briefly eyeing me.

"I don't, what happened. Did I do something wrong?" I asked feeling my heart beating faster than normal. I was going to lose Alex, I did something stupid at the party and now he is mad at me. Jesus, son of Mary. Please help me here!

"You really don't remember?" He asked this time meeting my gaze. I averted mine, my cheeks burning with embarrassment. What did I do at that damn party anyways!?

"Am sorry if I did something wrong, I'll do anything to earn your forgiveness really. Please don't get mad at me. Please." I pleaded on the verge of breaking apart. Losing Alex was a nightmare more than Ben and his misery that I didn't want to happen.

Alex sighed, he brushed off the fallen hair on his forehead and then smiled. "You didn't do anything Mike, you just fucking exhausted me and I was mad. Not anymore though." He said with a small smile and I felt myself relax though my being was reacting to his smile.

"So, Armored core VI: Fires of Rubicon at yours. How does that sound?" I asked excited about it. Alex and I played video games often and even though he always ends up winning I like challenging him.

"You got it." He said with a smile before increasing the speed of his car.

😉😉😉😉

"Meanie" I whined.

We have been playing for hours and every time I lost. He wasn't giving me a chance, yet he calls himself my friend pfft. I gave up. I spread myself on his bed his scent enveloping me. Alex went to take a shower.

My heart pounded as Alex stepped out of the bathroom, his hair still damp and messy. He had a towel wrapped around his waist, his chest bare flexing his abs and muscles. I knew I shouldn't be staring but I couldn't stop. I have never seen Alex half naked before and I didn't know why he chose it today.

The scent of Alex’s body wash lingered in the air, mixing with the humidity from the shower. Alex’s damp hair clung to his forehead, his eyes flicking to my face for a split second longer than usual. I could feel the weight of unspoken words and the tension hanging thick between us. It was the kind of tension where every movement seemed louder, every breath deeper, as if we were both waiting for something to happen but unsure if we should act on it.

" I forgot to take my clothes with me." He said his voice low and his eyes staring at nothing in  particular.

"It's okay" I tried and failed to keep my voice steady. My breath had quicken and my palms had become sweaty. I shouldn't have come here.

Alex turned and I thought he was going to change in the bathroom but then he stopped and asked. "You don't mind me changing here...do you?"

The truth is, I did mind. I could feel my member twitch but instead.

"No, it's your room. Feel free." I offered. Alex dropped his towel giving me a perfect view of his well crafted ass. That's when I felt dizziness and enveloped with desire. It’s both overwhelming and exhilarating, like being on the edge of something powerful yet tender, unable to resist but not wanting to. My thoughts wondered to dirty roads and before I knew it, I was standing before Alex who had only his briefs on.

I was so overwhelmed with whatever it was that I was feeling that I didn't think twice before closing the distance. Our lips meeting in a hesitant but electric kiss. The moment of the kiss felt like time slowed down. Alex was so close I could feel the warmth of his skin, a spark ran through me, overwhelming every thought in my head. The kiss deepened, becoming urgent, as if we’d both been waiting for this, unsure where it would lead, but not wanting to stop.

My hands shot up to Alex's chest exploring his divine abs. Alex moaned in the kiss wrapping a hand around my waist and one in my hair. Alex broke the kiss and immediately attacked my neck kissing and sucking the soft and sensitive part making me arch my back and bit back a moan. Instinctively my fingers reached for his nipple, caressing and pinching the hard bead. Alex groaned and the voice made me tremble. My knees felt so weak I thought I would fall if it weren't for his tight grip.

Alex squeeze my waist pulling me ever closer to him. I felt his stiff member brushing my inner thigh. He tilted my head to kiss me again and just like the first one, butterflies won't stop dancing in my stomach. I was out of control and started grinding myself against Alex. He too seemed to enjoy it and I was tempted. I gripped his hard on but just then, Alex pulled away like he was on fire. His eyes were wide and his face flushed, his hair was messy and he was panting breathlessly.

"Mike… you need to go." He said his voice quieter than usual avoiding eye contact.

I swallowed. “Hey....” I started but didn't know what to say.

“Mike… we can’t. You need to leave.”he said. Realization hitting in hard. I had kissed my friend and now everything was over. He will avoid me like a disease and I'll forever regret doing what I did today.

I blinked. “Alex, I—”

“Please,” Alex whispered, his voice shaky. “Just go.”

😉😉😉😉

And that's why ladies and gents, never fall in love with you best friend unless you are a character in a novel.
Anyways, it happened, Mike got the honours of kissing Alex *clapping excitedly*

Let's just hope things dont get shitty from here everyone.
