My life, Her life, Their lives.

Chpt 24: DUDE GOT LAID! (Pov Ana)

I looked at my passenger mirror and smiled, sprawled across the back seat was Alex. Hung over and ocassionaly groaning lightly. I opened my door and walked out moving to the backseat i closed the door and placed his head on my lap rubbing his back. "Shhh" I whisper "Its okay Alex." Ive known alex almost as long as i've known Taylor, he really got on my nerves and god was he annoying but no matter what i loved him, i loved him so much and i didnt really understand why. I lightly slap his head "Ow" "You worried us sick you poop ." I say continuing to stroking his back. " im.. im sorry " i say trying not to laugh at his reaction to the light tap in his head. He groaned smiling lightly "Thanks ana.." he mumbled Taylor walked up tp the car and knocked on the window "Taylor! UGHHH" he groaned covering his ears the noise rang in his ears, to mine and Taylors amusement. I rolled down the window and smiled,

"Hey linda." She smiled back and looked down to Alex. "Hey there Cactus boy" Cactus boy and Hairy Inky Cookie were Alex's two main nicknames. Cactus boy because when we were younger he had hugged a cactus and gotten absoultuly covered in spines, and Hairy inky cookie because though he was our best friend he wasnt enough to be a cookie, yet not so little to be just a friend so we called him hairy inky cookie. Hairy inky was the nickname he gave girls privates when he was little and he had always hated girls or human conntact in general so the nicknames were born. "oh god, did hairy inky cookie see a hairy inky cookie" Taylor laughed at her joke with Sam laughing hystarically along side her. Alex groaned and burried his face in my lap As the rest of us continued to laugh. I was the most nurturing out of us all, i spent most of my free time babysitting my cousins and family friends kids. I would go night or day and care for girls or boys sick or healthy at whatever age. I loved kids, I always wanted to be a mother And after countless times of taking care of cam I learned a few things about hangovers. Combined i was perfect in these situations.Yet I liked being sarcastic and making fun of Alex was my favorite thing to do with him. so joking around right now wasnt bad at all. I laughed and stroked his back. "Looks like you won't die a virgin after all huh" "You guys can.. suck a cactus"

Alex tried to joke still hungover resulting in a groan and him clentching to his stomach. "looks like you already did !!" i say laughing as sam high fived me. I stepped out the car placing his head on the seat. "Shh Alex sleep." I stroked his hair back he smiled at me and closed his eyes. I closed the door quietly and walked to Taylor "Let's get this dumb one a coffee" Taylor noded and walked along side me with sam trailing behind "I really want to see the broad he hooked up with " she laughed as we make our way to a coffee shop "Sam next time you watch him don't bloody lose him " Taylor giggled turning around handing Sam the keys after he ordered. Taylor was half british so in certain moments you could hear her lovely british accent but after living in NewYork for a while the accent faded a bit; I gave Sam my keys as well so he could get alex out of the car. As me and Taylor waited for our coffee i continued "Haha she wasn't pretty" Taylor smiled at me and respnoed "Well duh! How pretty can cactus boy even shoot for, hes lucky he got someone." We laughed thanking the baristas for our coffees and walking out to the cars. "She was skinny everywhere expect her face It was huge! And her hair was red but had streaks of white, She was short but had the longest arms I had ever seen But her legs were like little stumps" I described the best i could. I had only seen this girl for a few seconds. "He must've been wasted!!" we laugh in unison. "but in all seriousness" taylor says holding her breath "he must of seen something in her" she said bursting out in laughter i couldnt help but laugh along, her laugh was contagious. She alwyas seemed to smile about anything. Thats one of the reasons i loved her. She was so sweet and smiley and so shy and reserved at the same time. She kept me sane, or at least grounded. "Do you think he...you know.....frikle frackled ?" She nudged my arm, Frickle Frackled... this girl was engaged and she couldnt say the word sex. I couldn't help but laughed "I know he did I had to go inside to that place and get his stuff, He couldn't stand up by himself" Taylor scrunched her face in disgust "ewww!"

Engaged... engaged.... but then again. It was alex. I was a little disgusted too. "That reminds me where did you find him anyways" she asked "I was driving around and he was sitting on some steps outside an apartment...classic" i say giggling with her as we reached her car "Who knew he would do that ...who knew anyone would do that with HIM" I joked half serious. "Do you think he got that far though ?" She stopped and took a sip of her coffee looking at me seriously. "i mean he could of just got a..." She coughed taking another sip "No ..." I laughed at her awkwardness " I'm sure he went all the way. I'm sure of it." we continued walking until we reached my car. "I'm worried he wasn't safe...." She suddenly got very serious. I looked at her with a raised eyebrow. She needed to relax. "Should we get him tested?" she asked me. "we should get him fixed!" I laugh and open the car door "Hey can you two hurry up , he's starting to drool !" Sam says pushing Alexs sleeping head from him. "Ew! My car!!" I ran and lift his head "Hey! Hey Alex." I tapped his head trying to wake him. "Sam pass me your sweater." I say gesturing him to give it to me. "Dont get it dirty " he whined taking it off and slowly passed it to me unsure. No one loved their clothes more than sam. "Gimme! You lost him anyway!" I reached for it. "Dirty? Sam you're the one to talk, you smell like vodka and barf" Taylor giggled taking the sweater from his hand and handing it to me. "Shut it Taylor." he snaped "I'll take him to my place " he offerd looking to me holding Alex's head "But come with me , i have a hangover and i dont want to take care of this ... alex by myself"

I lift Alex's head resting it on my chest and tried giving him coffee from the styrofoam tray." This ones for you Sam." I say handing him a coffee with my free hand. "Of course You're staying with us no way you're driving. Taylor do you have anywhere to go??" I asked looking up to her. "well.." she looked unsure as if to speak. "I need to go talk to shawn and Cam" She sighs. "About that" i hand Alex over to Sam along with his coffee and walk up to her "Come here quick" I say and take her around the corner. "Yes?" she looked at me confused "What is it Cookie?" "Taylor, when you go talk to them tell Shawn my plan." She was about to say yes when i interupted. "But when you tell Cam pretend you came up with it." i explained "Don't mention me." she nodded smiling sympatheticlly. "If he knows I came up with it he won't go." "Your right." she agreed

she gave me a hug and we walked back around the corner to the open car door where alex was throwing up on the street leaning across a disgusted Sam. i looked back to taylor as we reached the car and Alex layed back down. "Let Shawn tell him.. act like you two came up with it." i reminded her. "I promise cookie dont worry." she smiled "well see you doofus" she waved to alex "Call me when you can please." I ask and get in the car Sam sat next to me and Alex layed in the back "sam, be careful with him" Taylor warns "No problems" he smiles "Later!" i rolled down alexs windows and looked at sam. "Ready?" "Ready." he answered smiling. i waved to Taylor in her car and drove away
