Alec gripped Ethan's hand as he stared up at the house they were about to enter. One of the friends he had met that one time at the beach... Heather.... Holly... he couldn't for the life of him remember the correct name. "Do any of them know about us? Or am I going to have to pretend I don't sneak into your room every night and ravish you."
Ethan rolled his eyes with a laugh. "They don't know about us. I don't want one of them accidentally telling me dad when they come over. Luke can't keep a secret to save his life."
Although Alec was a little upset and annoyed he would have to keep it a secret, he understood. Some people just had big mouths they didn't know how to keep shut. "Alrighty than."
The door opened and the girl smiled brightly, grabbing Ethan's hand and pulling him into a hug. "I feel like I haven't seen you in forever!" She exclaimed
Ethan laughed lightly, patting her back before pushing her off of him. "It hasn't been that long Haley. You're just obsessed with me."
"Actually it's your friend I'm obsessed with." She ran her eyes up and down Alec's body, biting her lips appreciatively. "But you've been hogging him all to yourself."
"I don't like to share." Ethan said, giving her a warning look.
She rolled her eyes but backed off, holding up her hands. "Fine, fine. I'll try to keep my hands to myself." She stepped back and held out her arms. "Get your asses in here. The pizza just arrived but you know Luke, if you don't get to it now, you won't get any."
Alec made sure to keep his distance from Ethan as they walked in. He didn't want to accidentally catch himself trying to touch him. He shoved his hands in his jacket pockets and followed the other two to the living room.
"The final two have arrived." Haley announced and took her seat back on the couch.
Alec scanned his eyes over the people, recognising all of them from the beach. Especially Ethan's ex boyfriend Jace, who was looking at him with a glare. He simply ignored him and took a seat next to Ethan on the ground in front of the pizza.
"Bro, where have you been? Jace has been acting more annoying than usual." Luke blurted out, stuffing his face with pizza.
"I have not!" Jace said. "I've been worried. He's living with a guy we barely know. He could be a murderer."
"I can confirm I am not a murderer. If I was, Ethan would already be dead." Alec said.
"Whatever." Jace mumbled.
Ethan cleared his throat, trying to clear the awkward air. "Sorry I haven't been around much. I've just been busy. Has anything interesting happened?"
"Actually, Jen tried to ask out Josh the other day." Haley smirked, wrapping an arm around the now blushing girl.
