chapter xii | you give me a rush

ELIZABETHS POV

I felt someone on my lips and smiled realizing it was Alex. He was kissing me.

"Good morning beautiful." he said against my lips, only causing me to smile like crazy.

"Good morning." I mumbled, leaning up and kissing him again.

"Mm, don't tease me." he pouted.

"I'm not a tease." I smirked lightly and kissed him again, sitting up more this time. He grabbed my waist and quickly turned me over now that I was up and awake.

The kiss went from innocent to heated in 0.5 seconds as Alex's hand roamed all over me and my fingers tugged on his hair. He groaned slightly.

"You're teasing me." he said as I bit his neck.

I leaned up against his ear, "Teasing is when you won't get anything." He growled slightly and flipped me over so he was on top of me, kissing me quickly and pulled my crew neck off.

"Liz, Liz, wake up." I heard Alex's voice and my eyes opened.

Did I really have another steamy dream about Alex? Seriously what is going on with me.

He was leaning over the bed, fully clothed, and I felt myself feel colder without him there.

"Why are you up?" I whined.

"It's noon, Jack's still asleep, but I have to go. I wasn't even supposed to stay the night. I think Jack wanted me out." he admitted, looking down at his feet.

"Alright, why'd you wake me up then?" I groaned and little and laid back down.

"To tell you a proper goodbye." he smiled and kissed my cheek before hurrying out of the room.

I knew I was blushing and I couldn't help but bite my lip. 

Then I remembered Jack. I had fought with him and I needed to apologize and make it up to him. I didn't want my best friend hating me.

I switched my shorts for sweatpants before hurrying downstairs and into the kitchen.

JACK'S POV

I opened my eyes and smelt food. Who was cooking? 

I stood up and threw on pajama pants and walked downstairs tiredly to find Liz in the kitchen cussing about burnt pancakes.

I watched for a moment, she ran a hand through her hair, clearly frustrated and dumped the two pancakes into the trash before pouring more batter in the pan.

"Having trouble?" I chuckled. She jumped and turned around quickly.

"Shit, I didn't know it was you. Don't scare me like that." she said quickly.

I just laughed and walked over to the bacon that was on a plate and stole a piece, "Why're you cooking all this anyway?" 

She bit her lip and turned to face me, "It's kind of like a 'I'm sorry for being such a bitch last night' meal. I have a speech too." she said awkwardly.

I chuckled and wrapped my arm around her, "It was smart to go with the food first, you know how to win me over." she smiled quickly and hugged me back.

"I really am sorry though." she whispered.

"It's okay, really. I should have made sure you were okay with going over there." I sat down at the table and watched as she flipped over a pancake.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" I asked cautiously.

She shook her head no and I dropped it. "So what are we doing today?" I changed the subject.

"I don't know, something fun! With the guys! Since I only have today and tomorrow."

I frowned- I didn't want her to leave. I wished she could stay forever and we could continue being best friends and cooking breakfast and doing dumb things.

"Let's go to the mall." she turned to me and smiled.

"The mall? Really?" I groaned. She shook her head and smiled.

"Please Jacky, please." she begged, pouting her lip out.

I sighed, "Fine, but you have to call the guys." 

"Will do!" she smiled. "Oh and we'll get you a new phone while we're out."

"Yes, then I can talk to you everyday when you leave me again." I pouted jokingly.

"Everyday? I don't know if I can handle that much Jack!" she said as she sat in my lap.

I faked hurt, "Wow, I see how it is." 

"I'm just kidding, you know I love you Jacky." she kissed my cheek and handed me the plate that was in her hands. 

"Eat up because we're going shopping loser." she quoted some of Mean Girls and I couldn't help but chuckle. Today would be interesting.

ALEX'S POV

I didn't surprise me that we were all invited to go the mall with them. I knew I'd be going back over to Jack's like I hadn't spent the night anyway and that's why I snuck out so early. I knew Jack would have a fit if he found out I stayed in the same bed as Liz, especially sense he had already told us all she was off limits and not to make moves.

I showed up late, as usual, with them all waiting outside for me. We piled in a car and Liz and Jack took front seats as Rian, Zack, and I squished in the back.

"I still can't believe you're making us go shopping." Rian groaned.

"It'll be fun, trust me." Liz smiled at Rian as we pulled out of Jack's driveway and made our way to the mall.

I think she pulled us into every girly store she could. It was so weird, just standing there as she decided whether or not to buy something. Don't get me wrong, it was fun. We all cracked jokes and I loved spending time with her, but it was still awkward.

As we came to the last couple stores I saw her grin widely, "I need to got to Victoria Secret!" she exclaimed, grabbing Jack and I's hand and pulling us in the store. 

"I'm okay with this if you try stuff on." Zack joked. 

"Cute Zack." she smiled as she ran off through the store and picked out random things.

"This is so weird dude." I mumbled to Jack. "Yeah but look at all the hot chick posters." he smirked.

"I think Zack and I are going to wait outside." Rian said, laughing, knowing Jack and I wouldn't leave. 

They walked out of the store and Jack wandered off leaving me alone.

"Lex, I need your opinion." Liz came up behind me and I turned around.

"On?" I scrunched my eyebrows together. She held up two lace, small, sets of lingerie and I suddenly felt a little weak to my knees.

Picturing her in that was hard to push away and it didn't push away. That was the problem. But I'm a guy, why would she do this to me!

I pointed to the black one because honestly, it would look smoking hot on her, but the only thing I wanted to do was take it off her.

"Alright, thanks." she smiled and hurried off to buy it as I sat there trying push thoughts out of my head so nothing 'popped up' if you know what I mean.

Damn it, what was this girl doing to me?
