Plasters And Bandages (COMPLETED ✔️)

Chapter One

Alex's POV

*BEEP BEEP BEEP *

5:00 AM

Probably should get ready for college, and then for the Halloween party afterwards.

So I dragged myself out of bed, showered and got dressed. I took one glance at my house and walked out.
School was boring and the day flew by. Soon it was time for the party.
Ari was coming over. I heard her knock on the door and I stumbled over, I so couldn't be asked for this party but I was doing it for Ari, she's a party animal.

Ari squealed silently and entered my apartment. She pulled out a little black sultry dress, and cat ears. I rolled my eyes.

"What?" She had a quizzical look painted on her face.

"What the fuck is this? Mean girls?"

"Shut up I don't want to go home alone tonight"

"Well you better take cab fare, I'm not driving you and your new man home and your not doing it under my roof"

"Boo! You whore"

"Again, not mean girls"

We looked at each other before bursting into cries of laughter.

I was going to be a princess, but unlike Ari I WAS going home alone tonight and the party was across the street, it was a house party, so i didn't need to drive.

I pulled out a stunning red dress, it matched my fair skin, black hair and blue eyes. I wasn't the prettiest but I'd say I was average.
I put my makeup on, caking on more than usual. I put on my tiara and slipped on my beautiful black heals and we walked out the door.

When we got there the party had already started and we were too late to be 'fashionably late'

"I'm gonna go get a drink" Ari shouted, trying to be louder than the music, and failing.

"Okay, I'll be fine all alone thanks" I replied sarcastically but she was gone.

I went to get a drink and to find Ari but she was no where to be seen.

A few drinks later I was starting to relax, I was a bit tipsy but I felt better.

As I was wondering around this guy bumped into me, I lost my balance and fell to the floor, twisting my ankle. I cried out in pain.

"I'm so sorry, are you ok"

His voice was deep and he had meaningful green eyes, as if they told a story and I wanted to know more, forgetting the pain in my ankle. He had a beautiful chiselled face and pink soft-looking lips. As he was looking down at me his golden brown hair fell in his face, making him smile and he raked it back with his hand.

Fuck

"Let me help you"

"It's ok I'm fine"

But as I stood up I realised I couldn't walk and was about to fall again but he caught me and my stomach fluttered. I was holding on to both his shoulders, and our eyes locked for a second before I snapped back to reality.

"Would you like me to call you a cab"

"No it's ok, I live across the street"

"Oh ok let me walk you"

"No honestly it's ok"

I stepped down on my foot and winced out in pain,
And with that he scooped me up and walked me out of the house.

"You can put me down, you don't need to do this"

"No, but I want to" He grinned at me and his eyes glistened.

"Here we are" I said as we reached my house.

He put me down and adjusted my tiara.

I opened the door and just before I closed the door I said

"I didn't catch your name"

"I'm Beck, Beck Adams and you?"

"I'm Alex, Jones" I breathed.

I realised I had seen him around college.

"I've seen you around campus, I will see you on Monday I guess" He grinned at me again.

"Bye princess" He bowed and with that he was gone.

Why did he call me princess, then it dawned on me, my costume.

Shit, I left Ari I remembered. I heard a knock and let her in, she was so drunk she walked to my spare bedroom, closed the door and I didn't hear anything afterwards.

I flopped down on my sofa and sighed, just before I fell asleep.
