Say You'll Mean It - Jalex Fanfic

Chapter One

Jack's P.O.V

I sighed as I walked through the gates of Dulaney High, dreading every class I had to sit through, listening to the teachers ramble on about things that don't even matter, dreading most of the bullshit i'll most likley have to put up with from other students, basically dreading everything, except seeing Alex of course. Seeing him was probably the best part of everyday. Who wouldn't be excited to see thier best friend? Especially a friend like Alex. He's funny, he's supportive and caring, that boy will always find a way to make me smile. He's also really sweet, and cute. He has a perfeect smile, perfect eyes, and damn..he's got a perfect body...

Wait, what the hell am I saying? I don't think of him..THAT way. He's just a decent looking, decent hearted guy.

I mentally slapped myself, taking a heavy breath continuing to walk to my locker. I looked around at all the students, the 'popular' guys giving eachother high-fives and whatever cool handshakes they do, snickering and laughing at me as I walked past. I just shook my head and continued walking. The 'goody goody's' grabbing their books and walking to their first class ten minutes early. I honestly don't get the point of that, but whatever. I walked past the group of 'popular' girls, most of them giving me weird looks as if im some rodent, some of them winking at me and saying hello, I just waved at the girls who said hello and ignored the others.

I arrived at my locker and saw Alex standing there waiting for me. I smiled and admired the way he was standing, headphones in, just leaning up against the lockers next to mine, with his arms crossed, bobbing his head to whatever song he was listeing too. He smiled when he saw me and took his headphones out.

"Hey, man." he said when I was within earshot. 

"Hey, whatcha listening to?" I asked unlocking my locker.

"Blink." He simply replied as he stood closer to me trying to look in my locker.

"What's with you and looking in my locker?" I asked chuckling slightly. He just smiled and shurgged. I grabbed my books and started walking a few steps to reach his locker. He followed and started to open his locker, but failed. He tried again, and failed again. He groaned and turned to me.

"Jaaaaaaaack, open it." He looked at me with puppy dog eyes. I laughed and walked up to his locker and unlocked it succesfully. He smiled and thanked me grabbing his books and locking it again. 

"Wait," Alex said staring into space trying to think. "We both have English first yeah?" I nodded and started walking to homeroom. He followed, since we have homeroom together. He was standing so close to me, I could smell his musky scent, I loved it, it making me feel fluttery inside for some reason.

We walked past a group of guys who tend to pick on me alot. They were friends with Alex, but he didn't tend to acknowledge them that much when he was around me though. He also didn't know that they bully me either. They wouldn't hurt me infront of Alex, but I still tried to avoid eye contact with them, and avoid them in general. They were pretty horrible to me..

"Oi, Barakat!" one of them shouted. I took a shaky breath and continued walking. Attempting to get away from them. But apparently today was not my day, becasue one of them grabbed my shirt from behind and punched me. 

"Hey!" Alex shouted pinning whoever it was up against the wall. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" the guy just laughed and pushed Alex off him. Alex glared at him and began to walk to my side. Before he could make it, another one of them kicked me in the stomach.

"Why are you friends with this faggot, dude?" one of them laughed.

"What they fuck did you just say?" Alex growled. They kept on saying insulting things about me, calling me fat, ugly, faggot and a bunch of other things. Alex kept on trying to defend me, threatning them, and coming close to hitting them too.

"He's not a faggot, now leave him alone!" he shouted one more time at them.

"Oh please, have you not seen the way he stares at you? All lovingly and shit. Looking up and down at you, practically drooling. He's a fucking gay ass pussy." one of them said before laughing loudly. Alex cracked it and punched him in the face, I assume he knocked him out becuase he wasn't moving. 

Alex looked at me with hurt and confusion in his eyes. I looked back, ashamed of myself, because all of what they said was true.
