Sin

Chapter Twelve: Fundraiser

School...

Alex is putting stuff in her locker. Steph and Zack were by their lockers which was across from Alex's. She's crying

Zack: He's going to be alright Steph

Steph: He's in a fucking coma! Someone broke into our house and beat him with one of our statues!

She cries more. Alex couldn't help but smirk, still putting stuff away

Steph: We might have to pull the plug on him

Zack hugs her as she cries. Alex closes her locker. Dexter was standing next to her, making her jump

Alex: Oh shit! Dexter hi

Dexter: Didn't mean to scare you. Everything ok?

She smiles

Alex: Everything's great, never felt better

Dexter: That's good. I wanted to invite you to a party that we're throwing after the fundraiser tomorrow. Everyone at the club will be there

Alex thinks about the last party she went to

Alex: Oh umm I don't know

Dexter: Oh shit...I forgot I'm sorry. I totally wasn't thinking

Alex: I want to go with you

Dexter: Really?

Alex: If it's just them then yes

Dexter: Don't worry I'll make sure it doesn't get crazy for you to be uncomfortable with

She smiles. The bell rings

Dexter: Shall we then?

He sticks his hand out to her. She takes it

Alex: Yes we shall

The Next Day...

Everyone at the club meets up at the school and goes into a bus where it takes off to a park

Alex: Oh wow look at all those people

Ivan: I know, wait are we running?

Mr. Rivera: Yes we are

The guys cheer except Ivan

Ivan: Ughh

Alex looks behind her seat

Alex: Don't worry I got your back

He smiles. Mr. Rivera hands everyone a shirt with the club name. They all put it on. The bus stops as they all get out. The girls walk over to Alex

Sasha: Hey Alex

Alex: Yeah?

Sasha: A little birdie told me you and my brother hit it off a couple of days ago

Alex smiles

Alex: Yeah we did

Kim: Wow I did not see that coming

Roxy: It was obvious, the way you both looked at each other

Heather: Who kissed who first

Alex blushes

Alex: He did

They all get excited

Mr. Rivera: Ladies, we're waiting on you!

They all run over and get in position

Announcer: On your marks, get set, go!

They fire the gun as everyone starts running. The crowd starts throwing color powder at them. Everyone including Ivan was laughing and having a good time

Meanwhile...

Alex's dad is looking at motorcycles

Dealer: See anything you like?

Dad: No I'm just looking around, haven't ridden one in a long time

Dealer: Hey it's never too late to be free and ride

Dad: I know

He goes over to one and whistles

Dad: Wow

Dealer: She's a beauty isn't she?

Dad: You got that right. May I?

Dealer: Go ahead

He gets on the bike, getting the feel of it

Dad: She is gorgeous... I'll take her

At the park...

Everyone reaches the finish line. They're all covered in color powder. They all start giving each other high fives

Later that day...

Alex comes home

Alex: Dad are you home?

It's quiet

Alex: Guess not

She goes to her room, grabs clothes, and takes a shower. After she gets out she goes into the garage and sees her dad's car

Alex: Ok? Where the hell are you?

She looks and sees the motorcycle

Alex: The hell?

She turns around and he's standing right there. She jumps

Alex: Shit! Dad you scared me!

Dad: Jesus; why are you so jumpy?

Alex: I've been looking for you...not really just called you

Dad: I was in my room sleeping

Alex: Oh yeah I forgot you sleep in there

They laugh

Alex: Umm dad; what is that?

She points at the motorcycle

Dad: Yeah I bought that

He scratches his head. She looks at his arm

Alex: Is that a tattoo?

He looks at it

Dad: Yeah

Alex: Oh no... Are you going through a mid life crisis?

He laughs

Dad: Don't be ridiculous

Alex: Dad you have a tattoo on your arm and a motorcycle in the garage. A pretty bad ass one

Dad: I'm just experiencing that's all, doing worry about me

She hugs him

Alex: This is my fault

Dad: No Alex

Alex: I broke you

Dad: Oh stop it. Alex look at me

Alex looks

Dad: I'm fine sweetheart; ok?

Alex: Whatever makes you happy I guess

Dad: Good. Anyways how was that fundraiser?

Alex: It was really fun, we ran and got color powder thrown on us

Dad: Sounds like fun

Alex: I have to tell you something

Dad: What's up?
