But It's a Guy Shirt

Chapter 19: A Pretty Decent Apology

     "My head fucking hurts," I groan loudly, as I rest my hand on the top of my head in pain.

     "I know that," my brother says, as he walks into the room with a bottle of aspirin.

     I stare up at the ceiling. "And I'm really tired."

     Theo lets out a chuckle. "Like always."

     I hear someone else walk into the room.

     "Delilah," I call out, shutting my eyes dramatically. "If that's you, please take my hand. I'm in pain."

     Instead of my sister's soft skin, a larger hand takes it's place in my grasp, and I quickly flinch away. "Who the hell are you?"

     "Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, my dear," Alex's voice responds.

I open my eyes, seeing that the devil himself is standing in my room, looking down at me with amusement. "Why are you here?" I ask tiredly.

     "I just dropped by to see how you're holding up," he replies, his eyes observing my face. "And by the looks of it, you're not doing so well."

     "Wow," I state flatly. "You want a prize with that?"

     He leans down closer, causing my eyes to widen slightly. "Actually, now that you've mentioned it, a prize would likely be appreciated."

     I reach out and push his face away. "I hope you know that I'm broke."

His lips form a mischievous smirk. "A kiss was actually on my mind, beautiful."

Oh, fuck.

I instantly look away, hoping he can't see my face turning red.

"Yo, stop flirting with my sister," Theo says jokingly, reminding us that he's in the same room as us. "It's disturbing."

I roll my eyes and sit up. "Just hand me the aspirin, Theo."

My brother hands me a glass of water and an aspirin tablet. "Here you go."

The boys silently watch as I throw the tablet into my mouth and quickly drink down the water. "Jesus Christ, I don't even remember what happened last night," I mumble.

"You had your first kiss," Alex says with a shrug. "Congrats."

I widen my eyes in shock. "I did?!"

Alex nods his head.

Oh my god.

"Do I- do I know him or something?" I ask sheepishly.

Alex nods his head again. "Yes, you know her."

And that's when a few vivid memories came back.

"Oh shit, it was Paris," I mumble, mostly to myself.

"Okay, while you guys chat, I'm gonna be eating breakfast," my brother says, heading out the door, leaving me alone with Alex.

I run my fingers through my hair and stare up at him. "Did I say anything stupid?"

He silently thinks before providing an answer. "I remember you saying that your stomach was flatter than some girl's chest."

"Wow," I say, letting out a sigh. "Did you drive me home?"

"Yea," he replies, scratching the back of his head.

     "Well, thanks," I tell him with a weak smile.

     Silence occupies the room for a short amount of time before Alex speaks up. "Do you wanna head to my place?"
