Alexander (CENTURIES series: Book #1)

13

The rest of the weekend passed by pretty quickly. We explored the best beaches and pretty much just relaxed, but then it became time to go home. Me and Alex didn't have sex, even if we came pretty close a few times. But it just never seemed like the right moment or the right time.

So we were back home and everything was back to normal. I was supposed to meet up with Alex, Miles and Jagger, but I had been forced to text Alex and cancel when a certain someone decided to stop by and say hello; Auntie Floe.

"Mooom! Where are the tampons?!" I shouted from the bathroom where I was having a serious emergency. "Mooom!"

There came no reply.

"MOM! I'M KINDA HAVING A CRISIS HERE!"

"Your mom left two minutes ago," I suddenly heard an amused voice say. "She let me in just before she had to go to the store."

"What are you doing here?!" I screeched, suddenly feeling very embarrassed. I was sitting on the toilet with my ass bleeding while I was desperately searching for a tampon – and my boyfriend was right outside. "Go away, Alex!"

"I have tampons, Soph."

"I don't have time for—wait, what?" I snapped and glared at the door. "You got tampons?"

"And cookies too, like always. Open the door."

My eyes widened. "Hell no! I'm not letting you in here!"

"Just open it a crack so I give you the damn tampons," He replied, chuckling shortly. "Come on Soph, you're desperate."

I considered my options and had to come to terms with this being my only one. I therefore awkwardly waddled to the door, quickly unlocked it and then opened it a few inches. Alex stuck his hand inside, holding the box of tampons out to me. He couldn't see me and I couldn't see him, all I could see was his floating hand. I quickly snatched the pack and closed the door, almost before he had a chance to retrieve his hand. "Thanks! My hero!"

He chuckled on the other side again. "You're welcome, my damsel. I'll just go lay on your bed then and await my princess's kiss."

"You wish," I mumbled as I heard him walk into my bedroom. I finished up in the bathroom, now finally happy to have my tampons. I walked into my bedroom and found Alex exactly where he said he'd be; Plonked down on my bed with my pillows behind his head with my TV turned on. He smiled at me when I came up to him.

"Hey, beautiful."

"Hi," I mumbled and crawled down next to him, under the covers. He curled up to me and wrapped an arm around me, spooning me.

"How are you feeling?" He murmured, pressing a sweet, tentative kiss to the spot below my ear.

"My stomach hurts," I mumbled back, yawning a little while looking at the TV. "Distract me. Tell me what you did today."

He chuckled silently, then sighed compliantly. "Well; I woke up, took a shower, thought of you, got a boner, masturbated—"

"Okay leave out the details, just be diplomatic."

His chest vibrated again as he laughed, kissing my neck. "Alright. I got dressed, ate breakfast, went to school, then went to Miles' place and met up with Jagger on the bus. Then we begun planning next week's prank when I got your text, saying you wouldn't be coming because you got your period. So I left, went the store and bought you a pack of tampons because I read somewhere that's what boyfriends do, and then I also bought you the usual pack of cookies, then I came here—"
