Jude brushes his teeth and Connor kisses his neck. Jude spits the paste out of his mouth and rinses then kisses Connor.

"You taste good" Connor smiled. "So now that my divorce is official maybe we should tell people were engaged."

"People still hate that were together especially your ex husband" Jude said.

"Well forget them" Connor said with a smile. "This isn't about them this is about us."

They kiss again.

"Let's just keep it quiet for a little longer" Jude told Connor.

Connor nodded.


Alex stood in his bathroom. He poured some vodka on his toothbrush and brushes his teeth. He walks into the living room and answers his phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey its Jonas" Jonas said. "I'm coming into town and I want to hang with you. So you in?"

"Yeah" Alex said. "As long as there's alcohol I'm good."

Jonas laughed.

"There will be more than that" Jonas said.


At Anchor Beach, Jude entered the school with a smile on his face he seen Alex.

"Good morning Alex" Jude greeted.

"Go to hell" Alex said.

Jude was shocked Alex said that at work. Jude followed Alex into Alex's classroom.

"Okay" Jude said. "What is your problem?"

Alex rolled his eyes and sat at his desk.

"Your a pain in my ass" Alex said. "That's what the problem is. Now will you leave?"

Jude was beyond pissed. He did nothing wrong. Sure he stole Connor back but he had too.

"Well" Jude snapped. "I'm about to make that pain for you a lot worse."

Alex rolled his eyes.

"What are you going on about?" Alex asked in a bitchy tone.

"Me and Connor are engaged" Jude smirked.

"I don't believe you" Alex replied.

"Yes you do" Jude said in a bitchy tone with a smile. "And it's true. I'm the reason he left you. He never loved you. I mean who could love you? Your unable to be loved, Alex. Jake didn't love you. Noah didn't. And Connor didn't. Don't you see? The only love you can get comes from a bottle. Shows you how pathetic you are."

Jude smiled and walked out. Alex quickly wipes away his tears and pulls out a bottle of vodka from his desk and takes a big gulp.


Alex later wrote 'Mr. Harper' on the board.

"So I'm assuming some of you have heard" Alex said. "Me and Coach Stevens got a divorce. So that's how I spent my summer class."

"Why did you two get a divorce?" A student named Mary asked. "I thought you two loved each other."

"He did something bad" Alex said. "I wanted to move past it but he just didn't love me anymore class. You can't keep being married to someone who doesn't love you."

"Did it make you cry?" Another student named Niall asked.

"Yeah" Alex said. "Look kids I just wanted to talk about it today with you. Things are much easier at your age but when your adult it gets harder. So please after today don't bring up the divorce. I don't like talking about it much. Okay?"
