Alex's POV (point of view)
When I saw Shannon I knew something was different and I knew she noticed my sadness as I walked into the airport but she just blankly ignored it. I guess that's good. I was walking back with Shannon to the car and my dad told me he'd get a rental car and drive to our hotel and I nodded and waved goodbye to him. Ever since my mom and him divorced he hasn't been the same...he's been drunk alot and should I add beating me every now and then. As we were walking back to the car I smiled to Shannon's brother and he rolled his eyes. "Luv ya too dude" I snapped my fingers at him and laughed which caused Shannon to laugh.
*~*~*~*
When we got to Shannon's house I noticed her mom and she came and hugged me "it's so nice to see you alex, I'm glad you came to spend some friendly time with Shannon!" I smiled and hugged back even though I didn't really like hugs. "Nice to see you too!" I said cheerfully. Just as our happy moment was interrupted by Shannon's dad barging in the main room with a beer bottle in hand and a clenched fist occupied the other.
Before I could speak I was cut off by Shannon's yelling at me and her for 'not' telling him I was coming even though Shannon has told him plenty of times. But of course being Shannon's dad he assumed he was right and pushed past me while going into the kitchen probably to get more food for him to complain about not having even though he ate it all. I rolled my eyes and asked Shannon if she was ok. "Are you kidding me?!?! I'm super fucking exited I get to be with one of my best friends for like a whole week!!" She said with a smile. "3 weeks actually. My dad extended the time limit of me staying here!!" I said as we walked back outside to hang out by our favorite tree.
*~*~*~*
"REALLY?!?! I can't believe you did that" Shannon said cracking up. "I so did do that I mean it was a dare, I never give up on a dare. Besides it was with me and the guys and it was a long time ago." I protested with my arms crossed. "Yeah but still, you're just crazy!" She said through a smile "that is quite true but not as true as you being crazy." I said as I pulled out my phone which had been vibrating like crazy ever since I sat down next to the tree. "NU UHH!" She laughed. "Whatever" I said while rolling my eyes playfully.
"Whatcha dooooooooing??" She said as she leaned over my shoulder and watched who I was texting. "I'm just texting the guys. They're being annoying and stupid, see look." I handed my phone to her while she looked through the messages.
Ash: "hey dude ur flight almost landed?"
Alex: "ya I'm in the terminal right now actually"
Ash: "AWESOME THOSE ARE LIKE SECRET AIRPLANE TUNNELS!!"
Collin: "oh hush ash nobody likes your weird fetishes"
Ash: "pshhhhh whatever colli-poo"
Collin: "don't call me that Ashley"
Christian: "you guys are stupid, hope you have fun with Shannon dude ;)"
Alex: why the winking face?"
Evan: "you know whyyyyy!!"
Alex: "I actually dont eve-wevy"
Toby: "uuhhhhhh huh sure dude whatever helps ya sleep at night"
Alex: "whatever I got to go im almost about to see Shannon for the first time in so fucking long!!"
Ash: "hehe
Collin: "FINALLY ASH gets it!"
Ash: "sorry I'm stupid!"
Christian: "you should be""Ya the guys are quite weird at times" she said with a giggle. "But why is the chat about me all the sudden?" She tilted her head like a puppy. "I told them I was going to see you and stay here for a while until they started saying we'd be the perfect couple!" I said bluntly. "GROSS I only like you as a friend and besides I like somebody else!" She stuck her tongue out at me. I booked her nose and we both laughed.
*~*~*~*
After a while at Shannon's house I went back to the hotel we were staying in to find my dad drunk. "Great just my luck." I mumbled under my breathe so he wouldn't hear. "Well look who we have here, captain faggot" he said. "Yeah totally." I rolled my eyes and got out my phone and started checking tumblr. "Did I ever tell you how much of a mistake you were, nobody will ever like you alex. I hope you know that." My dad said with a chuckle. I rolled my eyes. "I'm going to go to the lobby." I said as a made a mental not to myself.
Never trust my dad....ever.
I said to myself as I walked out the door and went to the lobby.
