Love Doesn't Discriminate

Chapter 6

         Alexander walked into school. He was early, so John and Eliza weren't there yet. In fact, none of his friends were. The only person he saw who he knew well and liked was Maria. She winked at him as she walked past, and he smiled back. Damn, she's hot... thought Alex. No! He couldn't think like that! Alex had John and Eliza, and he loved them, and they loved him. They were perfect together. Still, that didn't change the fact that Maria Reynolds was smoking hot...

         "Hey Alex," said a familiar voice behind him. It was John. Alex spun around and removed all thoughts of Maria from his mind.

         "Hey," said Alex, putting his arms around John's neck and kissing him. See? John is enough. 

         "Hi guys," said Eliza's sweet, musical voice. She put one arm around Alex's waist and the other around John's shoulders.

         "Good morning 'Liza," said Alex softly, Alex and John each kissing her on the cheek. See? Eliza is enough.

         However, even as Alexander walked to class with the two people he loved most in the world, he couldn't shake the feeling that he still wasn't satisfied. 

================================================================================

         Maria walked out of her last class, happy to be done for the day. She spotted Alex and waved, him winking at her. Wow, he's pretty hot... No! Maria couldn't think that! She had a beautiful girlfriend! Peggy was amazing! Peggy was everything she could ever want, and Maria loved her. Still, there was something about Alexander's hair that made him incredibly desirable...

         "Hey Maria!" chimed Peggy's bright voice, clearing all thoughts of Alex from Maria's head. 

         Maria turned around to face her girlfriend, smiling brightly. "Hello love," she said sweetly, kissing Peggy on the cheek. See? Peggy is enough.

         Peggy blushed and grinned. "I have to go, my sisters are making me go to a concert or something, but I'll see you tomorrow, ok?" Maria nodded and kissed Peggy on the mouth. Peggy smiled even wider and bounced away down the hall.

         Still, even as Maria watched the most beautiful, amazing person she knew walk away, she couldn't help feeling like it wasn't enough. 

================================================================================

         "I have to go to something with my sisters, but I'll see you guys tomorrow, okay? Love you both," said Eliza, kissing each of her boyfriends and then walking off to meet her sisters.

         John turned to Alexander, smiling brightly like usual. "Laf and Herc want me to go to a movie with them, but I don't want to be a third wheel. Want to come along?"

         Alexander smiled sadly. "I'd love to, but I have a lot of work to do. See you tomorrow?"

         John pouted. "Okay, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then. I love you." He kissed Alex and ran off to find Laf and Herc. 

         Alexander turned around. I should probably head home and get started on my homework, he thought to himself. He started walking towards the door, when he suddenly collided with Maria Reynolds.

         "Oh my god, I'm so sorry! Let me help you!" he said, bending over to help Maria gather her books. Maria got on the floor too, both of them picking up books.

         Then, both of them looked up from the books and sat there for a second, staring into each other's eyes. They both leaned forward, their lips inches away from each other...

         Maria quickly pulled away and stood up. "I can't do this. Peggy..."

         Alexander stood up too. "Yeah, I'm sorry. John and Eliza..."

         And then, all at once, they were kissing passionately. They stumbled into an empty classroom, making out heatedly, and in that moment, neither of them were even thinking about Peggy, Eliza, or John.

Haha, nice fun chapter, ey? Actually I have a pretty good idea of the storyline for this, at least for a while, and let me just say, there will be worse... Anyway, thank you so much for reading, and there's like nearly 200 reads now?!?! For real, all of you who say you love this or that it's adorable... you're the reason I write. Seriously, you don't even know how happy you make me. Really, thank you.
