5 - A Confession and a Mess

Alex's POV

Three hours into the party, Kian was already drunk. And when I mean drunk I mean completely drunk. I, on the other hand, only had a sip of Kian's beer before I decided I was done.

"Hey Al. Where's my dance?" Kian slurred.

"You're too drunk to dance, another time," I smiled.

"No."

Kian took my hand and drug me out into living room, where the main source of music was coming from. Kian took my hand and we both started to dorkily dance because neither of us know how to dance.

"I really like you Al," Kian smiled.

"You have a girlfriend Lawley. Oh, you're also drunk!" I laughed.

"I speak the truth when I'm drunk. Andrea's a bitch. You're cool!"

"I think we need to take you ho-"

I was abruptly interrupted when Kian decided to grab my face. Slowly he pulled himself closer to me before our faces were inches apart. His breath smelt of beer, which just from the scent could've intoxicated me, and a mix of mint gum.

"Kian, you have a girlfriend," I whispered, trying to pull away.

"Not for long Alex," Kian winked, closing the gap between our faces.

I'm not going to lie, I honestly really enjoyed the kiss, but the fact that he was drunk and had a girlfriend made me believe he didn't want it. I was just one of his friends who happened to be a girl, nothing meaningful.

"I love you Al," Kian smiled, finally pulling away.

"I love you too Kian," I said, figuring I might as well admit my feelings while he was drunk.

(School Monday)

I walked into the lunch room feeling amazing. The moment I had with Kian was still in my mind and every time I thought about it, I felt butterflies in my stomach.

I saw Troye and I immediately ran over to him. He was sitting next to Connor with a big smile on his face.

"Hey Troye! Have you seen Kian?" I smiled sitting next to Lia.

"He's with Andrea. Should be over here soon," Troye smiled back, obviously in the same mood I was in.

I spotted Kian walking over with his hands intertwined with Andrea's. I found it really funny that they both acted like they liked each other, when obviously Andrea was the only one who really enjoyed the relationship.

"Hey Kian," I smiled.

"Alex, how nice to see you," Andrea smirked.

"Nice to see you too!" I said, trying not to sound annoyed while I talked to her.

"You like blue raspberry slushies right?" She smiled.

"Uhh..ye-"

That's when I felt it. A very cold, blue liquid trailed in front of my eyes and then I felt a big pile of it on my head. It ran down my back and all over my body, drenching my clothes.

I looked up to see both Andrea and Kian with big smile on their face. That's when I figured out that it was a game and I was just one of Kian's pawns.

I quickly grabbed my stuff and ran out of the lunch rooms, hearing all sorts of yelling coming from behind me.

My first instinct was to run into the bathroom, find the biggest stall, and slump on the ground. Tears flooded my eyes, blurring my vision.
