Book 1 - Slit My Wrist, Hope to Die

Chapter 4 - Alex

Alex

The rain was pouring down on the neat outfit worn today. They held each other, embraced in their warmth and comfort. Neither wanted to let go and they didn't. The fact that it was raining made the chance even more better and perfect than planned. They pulled back as if they already knew what was going to happen. They slowly closed in on each other and let their warm lips touch and from that moment, they swear their souls were intertwined with each other. They pushed closer and held each other tighter. Alex was finally happy.

"Where is you?" Alex texted Tate and sat on her bed. She looked around her room and admired the posters all around her like a crowd in the city. She loved them all too much: Pierce The Veil, Sleeping With Sirens, One Direction, Twilight, Harry Potter and so on. She even had up one of the posters that Tate given her which was a game poster of Assassin's Creed. She finally turned to see pictures of her and Tate on her wall with tape. 

Tate took the time to upload pictures of them from his phone to his computer and print them out on gloss paper for her. He wrote a little letter on all of them and thus asking her to put it on the wall using tape. They were in all different effects and she would look at them when she was sad or mad. Today was because she was happy. This is their two month anniversary together and it was Saturday which was perfect; no school. Her phone buzzed.

"I'm coming around. Let me ring the bell and you let me in :3" Tate repiled.

"Alright, hun c:" Alex put her phone in her pocket and gathered her things: lipgloss, her little hispanic bag and the money she stole from her Aunt. "180.." she whispered to herself as she counted. "Hot Topic it is. Oh, he's going to love this."

BEEEEP. BEE. BEEEEP.

Alex pressed the receiver and let Tate in. She heard the door open and close from the hall in her apartment. She wanted a few seconds before walking to her door and unlocking it. When she went outside she saw Tate wearing his skinny black jeans, his v-neck black shirt, dark blue and red converse and a grey beanie. "Oh shit," she thought. "He looks hot."

"Hey," Tate said in his low husky voice. "I missed you." He smiled.

"It's been a day." Alex said.

"So what? I'm trying to be cute here." His voice went to a higher pitch a little. "Hmph."

"I'm jokinggg!" she dragged it out. "I changed my mind. I don't want to go get yogurt," she dug in her pocket and pulled out a stack of cash. "Let's go to Hot Topic."

Tate eyes opened and his jaw dropped with a smile. "You're shitting me. You didn't!"

Alex chuckled in her cute little voice to Tate. "What?" she smiled to him.

"Nothing, nothing." He walked up to her and grabbed the money and counted it. "Oh my fucking god." He shook his head and put it in his checker wallet. "Let's just go." He grabbed her hand and she followed him out the door.

"Do you have Hot Cash on you?" Alex asked.

"Yeah," Tate repiled. "It was suppose to be a surprise."

"Sorry," Alex hugged and kissed Tate. "So, how much Hot Cash do we have with all this money I'm bringing in?"

"At least over one hundred dollars" Tate repiled.

"Oh, well," Alex faked coughed. "Awesome." They entered the mall.

They mall had three floors and were fulled with at least ten or more stores on each one. Hot topic was placed on the third floor with Spencers and Pacsun. The Hot Topic store looked like an old style brick oven you used to cook pizza with but once you enter, you are greeted with loud music and workers that have piercings and tattoos. Alex loved it because she felt like it was her second home.
