**Jessicas POV**
Alex follows me back to my house in his car.
The party is in a couple of hours at Danny's Workshop so i should probably get orginised. Alex waits in his car while i quickly run up the flights of stairs to our apartment. As fast as i can a put on the outfit that i picked out this morning and fix my hair. Im wearing ripped skinny jeans and a lace tank top. My hair is wavy from the braids i slept in so i just twist the front peices and pin them back.
Within 5 minutes im ready and i rush back to Alex. When i get in the car Alex looks at me with his amazing eyes. I could seriously look in to them forever. They are mostly green with yellow and blue flecks but it looks like a million colours.
"Stay off the weed this time." he says snapping me back to reality.
"How do you know about that!?" i could feel myself going horribly red with embarrassment.
"Eleanor told me." He replies with a dazzling smile. I roll my eyes playfully.
"Of course she did!"
<><><><><><><><><>
When we arrive the place is already pumping.
Luckily, the street the workshop is on, is pretty deserted, so we probably won't get complaints about noise.
Luke and Eleanor are having a violently making out outside the building. I got to admit; its gross and cringy seeing your best friends like that.
There are more people than i expected and i immediately feel a little claustrophobic. The place is full of strangers! im guessing Eleanor invited them; she the only really social one in our band. Travis-the yellow pants guy-is standing in the corner with his hippie friends. He waves at me and gestures for me to go over there. Im about to go when Alex grabs my hand.
"No more weed for you" he says, looking genuinely concerned.
"Im just going to say hi" i smile, before freeing myself from his strong grip.
<><><><><><><><><>
A couple of hours into the party, i start to get bored. i haven't drunk any alcohol or had any drugs, but thats what makes things fun. I go to reach for a can of beer when someone taps my shoulder. Terry.
"Uh do you wanna go see Alex. Hes had a bit too much to drink." I sigh and follow Terry as he shows me to where Alex is.
Alex is standing on a couch with a can in his hand. His hair is all messy and his words slurred. I think hes trying to do some really bad stand up comedy. Mostly just awful puns. I sigh and go stand up on the couch next to him.
"Do you wanna go for a walk Alex?" i ask him gently. He violently nods his head like a little kid. I take his hand and lead him down the little hallway.
The hallway is dark and musty and only leads to an office. On the ceiling is a little trap door with a string. I pull the string down revealing a stair case going up to the attic. The attic is much like the hallway except alot more dusty and quiet. All that there is up here is many boxes full of records or instruments or old equipment. To the right it a little that opens out into a tiny balcony. I lead Alex there.
Together we sit on the balcony hand in hand. I have to say, its really nice. He just talks to me in his drunken manner; cracking jokes and spilling his feelings. All his emotions are heightened and its quite funny. After a while he falls asleep with his head on my shoulder. I eventually fall asleep as well.
<><><><><><><><><>
The sun peaks over the buildings and skyscrapers, casting the golden light upon us. My eyes peel open to the blinding light. My back hurts and i have a splitting head ache, despite the fact i didnt have any alcohol last night. Alex stirs next to me. I gently nudge him to wake up. He groans loudly and covers his eyes.
"Come on its nearly mid day." i say to him softly. I help him up and together we slowly make our way back to the Workshop.
Everyone has already left except for Eleanor, Luke, Terry and Regan. They are groggily tidying up.
"Hey is it okay if i go? Alex is uh quite hungover. So im gonna drive him home." I ask the others.
"Yeah sure. Cya later!" Eleanor says.
We are in the car blasting 5SOS, which Alex happens to actually like. We sing every word at the top of our lungs even though Alex is still hungover.
"Hey! Lets start the Plan now!" i suggest.
"Yes!" I take out my phone and set it on the dash board. I look at Alex and he nods. I press record and we start singing 'Jet Black Heart'. Alex takes my hand thats not on the steering wheel and waves it in the air as we sing. I burst out laughing and stop the recording.
<><><><><><><><><>
"Where are you taking me Jess?" Alex asks when i take a different turn at the traffic lights.
"My apartment." i reply.
"Oh." I watch as the buildings pass by and the people walk the busy streets. I can barely see the sky the buildings are so tall.
I lead sleepy Alex up to my apartment, when we get inside, he collapses onto my couch.
"Today's Friday, we are supposed to be at school. What do you wanna do?" i ask Alex.
"Sleep" he mumbles. I laugh and sit on the couch next to him.
"Lets just watch a movie, you can fall asleep if you want to." Alex agrees. After much debating we finally choose to watch '10 Things I Hate about You'. (My favourite movie)
Tommorrow the Plan will officially start. Im actually kind of excited about it!!
