Remembering Sunday: All Time Low

That Little Kiss

Remembering Sunday - Chapter Nighteen - That Little Kiss

"Wake up sleeping beauty, it's time for you to go to school," My mom says, sitting on the end of my bed.

"Mom, I don't want to go to bed," I mumble into my pillow

"You only have two weeks left, you can do it. Plus, you have to go figure out what that whole kiss thing was with Alex," she says laughing, and pulling the blanket off my bed.

"You're the worst!" I yell jokingly at her as I get off the once warm, comfy bed.

I quickly get ready for school while jamming out to some Blink, pretty much what I do every morning. Its a quite nice way to begin your day, you get me?

Running down the stairs, I say goodbye to my mom before grabbing a banana off the counter before heading out of the door. I peel the banana, and throw the peel into the trash can at the end of the driveway. I quickly make my way over to Alex's, urgent to see what he has to say about the kiss.

I don't know how I feel about it quite yet, and I'm actually quite nervous about what he has to say. Like what if he says I'm a terrible kisser. I mean, I've only ever kissed one other person, Jake.

I quickly walk up to the door of the Gaskarth residence, and knock on the door. Not long afterwards, Isobel  comes to the door, a smile on her face.

"Hey, Luna. What's up?"

"Is Alex ready yet?" I ask her, sorta confused why Alex didn't come to the door. He always comes to the door.

"Oh, honey, he left already. He seemed a bit in a rush, maybe he had to get to school early for a project," she says, a small smile on her face.

"Oh thanks, I'll see you later then," I say before turning my back to her, my mind racing.

Was he avoiding me? We always walk to school together, and even when he doesn't come to school, Isobel always calls over to let me know.

Oh my god. It's because of the kiss. He didn't like it.

Fuck.

What was so bad about it? What did I do wrong? Does he hate me know? Am I a terrible kisser?

Tears begin brimming my eyes, and I quickly close my eyes, blocking them back. I continue making my way back to the school, kicking a rock down the street in the process. The school soon comes into view, and I take a deep breathe, exhaling it with a sigh.

The game plan is to walk into the school, and go to the auditorium to where all of us meet every morning.

Berfore I know it, I'm right in front of the main doors of the school, and I swing it open. I walk straight to the auditorium. I see all the guys standing there, laughing and talking.

"Luna!"  Rian calls as all the guys look in my direction with smiles on their faces.

Everybody but Alex, anyhow.

I run up to the group, and get in the circle, putting my hands on my hips, and a smile on my face.

"I gotta get going," Alex says as he grabs his bag quickly, and exits the auditoruim.

"What's up with him?" I ask, alightly scoffing.

"I have no clue, why didn't you come to school with him?" Jack asks

"He left before I got to his house. He didn't even call to say he was going to leave early," I say sadly.

"Did something happen over the weekend?" Rian asks, curiously.

"No we didn't even hang out this weekened. The last time I saw him was after prom, and he kissed me!" I blurt out.

They stare back at me, their mouths wide.

"He just kissed me, and it went on for a little. Then he just said sorry, and left."

"He kissed you, and now it's awkward for him. That's why he's ignoring you," Rians says, taking a deep sigh as the bell rings.

"Well I guess i'll see you guys later,"  I say as I make my way to my homeroom.

What am I going to do?

** Two days Later **

Alex hasn't said a word to me since Friday night, and is constantly ignoring me. I don't know what is going on with him, but I am sure as hell going to find out. I throw my things onto my bed, and open my window so I can climb down the tree.

I quickly climb down the tree because why the hell not? I need a change in my life, and some upper body strength.

After I reach the ground, I slowly walk next door to Alex's house, and walk up the porch, and let myself in. I walk up the stairs to where his bedroom is, and I open the door to see him laying down on his bed, playing a song on his guitar.

I walk over to his bed, and lay down next to him. We lay there in a comfortable silence for a little while before I brealk the silence.

"Why have you been ignoring me?" I ask, sighing.

We lay there for another minute before Alex finally decided to say something.

"I don't know," he says almost emotionless.

"Bullshit, there has to be some reason. Is it because of that kiss after prom?" I glance over at him, as he nods his head, "Why?"

"I don't want to ruin our friendship," he mumbles.

"Nothing can come between our friendship, Alex. Not even a simple kiss."

"I'm sorry, Luna."

"It's okay," I say, slight disapointment dripping from my words.

I'd be lying if what he said didn't hurt a little.

"I'm going to get going, I have homework to do," I say, sitting up and running a hand through my messy hair.

Alex also sits up, quietly saying my name..

"yeah?"

"Lisa and I are together again."

"That's cool," I say, exiting the room.

Real fucking cool.

** Author's Note **

Lol, okay so I know you're all groaning in disappointment. It will come at some point, I promise. (& I Hope you all know what I meant by that!)
