It's been a week since we found out that Laura was pregnant. Apparently, they took it pretty well. Laura and Harvey decided to put it up for adoption. I never really thought Harvey would man up to such a responsibility. Still, I was glad they didn't consider aborting. I wouldn't have been able to live with them. I was a little proud of them. Even if I lived with a wreck and a whore, at least I didn't live with murderers. Anyway, it was the first day for Summer classes, so Alex and I had an early start of the day. Laura had a shift at 9 o'clock and Harvey at 10 o'clock, but Alex and I were up already at 7. I had just finished eating breakfast when I headed for the bathroom to brush my teeth. I barged right in when Alex was still taking a bath, but it was fine since it was a big bathroom, and it had a shower curtain. To be honest, I barged a lot while Laura or Harvey was taking a bath. I didn't care, but when it came to Alex, it was... I don't know, sexy.
"Oh my God!" I freaked as soon as I realized Alex was taking a bath inside. My stomach went warm, and I felt completely turned on. "I'm sorry. I should've knocked first."
"No, it's okay." Alex peeked out from the shower curtain. "You need anything?"
"I just..." I couldn't catch up to my breath. I could see the upper half of Alex's body, and somehow, I was trying to see the silhouette of his lower. "I was just going to brush my teeth."
"It's okay. I don't mind." Alex hid back behind the shower curtain.
I exhaled, trying to calm myself down. I went to the sink and started to brush my teeth. I looked to the mirror and kept telling myself I didn't care, but I repeatedly tried to peek into the curtain, and every single time I tried to stop myself, I couldn't. I really shouldn't be anywhere alone with Alex especially when it's a sexy moment. It took a while for me to finish brushing my teeth since I got too occupied with the whole peeking thing. Alex went out the shower with his towel wrapped around his under parts. I hadn't completely noticed he had already dried himself. Geez, I was so out of my head.
"Hey." He said. I tried my best not to look at his half-naked body since it'll drive my ovaries insane. "My car comes in tonight, so I hope you don't mind if I ride with you to school today."
"Yeah, sure." I finally faced him, and I tried to fight the urge to look down, but I repeatedly failed. Alex smiled at me again for a moment, and it was driving my lust to a whole new level.
"Thank you." He said as he was about to walk away.
"Hey." I called, and he stopped. I tried to breathe. "I made... I made some breakfast."
"Aw, thanks." He nodded and smiled. I clenched my hands, trying to stop myself from further thinking sexy things to do with Alex, but I stopped as soon as I realized I shouldn't since I was with Ken. Alex walked away, and I just stood there and closed my eyes, contemplating on the stuff I shouldn't be thinking about.
Anyway, I took a shower and drove with Alex to school, and it was just a regular day. We didn't have Sociology classes during Mondays, so I didn't get the chance to see Alex, not that I wanted to. It was a pretty boring day, you know, the usual orientation and shit. When our classes ended, I drove Alex back to the loft, and it was already 6 pm. Laura and Harvey had just arrived too. When we entered the apartment, they were talking on the living room couch.
"Good evening!" Alex greeted as we got into the loft.
"Hey." Laura greeted back.
"Sup guys?" Harvey said. Surprisingly, they were calm. I guess they were okay with living the whole baby thing. Hopefully, they didn't decide to abort it.
