ONSDAG.

three days have passed since chris was at alex's house and they haven't spoken about it since. yesterday they acted as if nothing happened and just blanked each other out.

'hey alex.' says a voice, she turns around and there's a smiling isak standing there.

'hi isak, how are you?'

'i'm good, jonas wants to talk to you. he's waiting by the lockers.'

'oh okay.' she replies simply.

alex was nervous about what jonas wanted to talk to her about. she thought it might be about the other day, she fears he found out about her and chris. she walks down the hallway to see the family head of curls wearing a beanie on his head.

'hey jonas.' she says awkwardly.

'alex! i'm glad you decided to come and talk to me after what happened the other day. look, i don't know what got over me. i got a little over protective to find out you're spending time with penetrator chris when it's not up to me to decide who you can can't talk to. i'm sorry how i reacted and that i kissed you.' he says looking at her then sighs.

'the truth is, i like you alex. i like you more than just a friend. when i found out you were on a so called date with chris i overreacted. i'm sorry for my actions, i have no excuse for the way i reacted. and i shouldn't have kissed you, well without your consent.' says jonas.

alex just looks at him, without saying a word before wrapping her arms around him and pulling him close.

'it's okay jonas, i forgive you.' she says in his ear.

'you do?' he asks happily.

'yes, i understand why you got mad. you just wanted to protect me, it's fine. honestly.'

jonas smile gets even wider, just before bell rings.

'i have history now, see you later.' she says smiling before walking away.

chris is stood with a few of the other penetrators watching jonas and alex, his jaw suddenly clenching.

'chris, you okay?' asks william then looking over at where chris is looking at to see jonas and alex hugging.

'someone is jealous.'

'shut up, i'm not jealous.' he says angrily, lying through his teeth.

'stop lying man, we all know you like her.' says william laughing.

'no i don't fucking liking her.' says chris in disgust.

'yeah you do, and it's kinda obvious the way you nearly drool over her and the way you just looked at her and jonas. if looks could kill, that would be the one.'

'i don't like her.' spits chris.

'alright chris, calm down.' says william raising his eyebrows while the bell rings.

alexpennigton : you may say i'm a dreamer, but i'm not the only one. i hope someday you'll join us. and the world will live as one.

alex posts the photo then puts her phone down, concentrating on her norwegian homework.

her phone vibrates making her roll her eyes before picking it up.

chris : looking good in your latest ig post baby

alex : shut up.

chris : damn, why so pressed?

alex : because you're talking to me.

chris : what is your problem? you've been ignoring me non stop since i slept over at your house

alex : look chris, i'm not interested in whatever you want with me. i'm not interested in you. yes you're attractive, but i don't like you.

chris : seriously? you're just going to lead me on like that?

alex : lead you on? what the actual fuck chris?

chris : you let me open myself up to you and then you just ignore me, that's low alex

alex : i haven't lead you on, you're not making any sense, get over yourself chris.

chris : get over myself? why don't you get over yourself for leading me on

alex : go fuck yourself chris.

alex rolls her eyes and blocks chris's number, she was tired of his attention and him not making any sense. she scrolls through her contacts and finds the person she wants to call.

'come on pick up.' she says groaning.

'halla!' says the familiar voice.

'hey jonas.' says alex with a smile.

'how are you?'

'i'm good. i was wondering if you could come over i need help with my norwegian homework?' she asks hopefully.

'uh yeah sure! i'll be around in twenty minutes, do you want anything?'

'do you want to watch a movie or something afterwards?' she asks biting her lip.

'i'd love to! i'll buy some snacks and i'll be right over.' he says happily before hanging up.

'can they stop kissing every five minutes.' says jonas rolling his eyes as they watch romeo and juliet.

'stop complaining.' says alex laughing and throwing a popcorn piece at jonas.

'you're just jealous.' she says sitting next to him and looking at him.

'i would rather spend two hours looking at you then watch this boring ass film.' he says then realises what he just said.

'jonas, that's really sweet.' whispers alex.

'well you are incredibly beautiful to look at.' he says looking into her eyes then looking down at her lips.

'just kiss me already.' she says before he quickly puts his lips on hers.

he kissed her and the world fell away. it was slow and soft, comforting in ways that words would never be. his hand rested below her ear, his thumb caressing her cheek as their breaths mingled.

'that was really nice.' she says shyly once he pulls away.

'then let's do it again.' he says before kissing her again, this time alex can feel his smile against her lips making her smile.

alex and jonas just spent the afternoon, kissing and running their hands through each others hair. smiling at each other, telling stories to each other.

alex was starting to like jonas, but she didn't want to admit it as jonas is still eva's ex. and eva still had feelings for jonas.

that might be a problem.
