What's Happening to Me (boy x boy)

What's Happening to me (boy x boy) ch.7

  Jess's POV

I was sitting in the front row like I always do for all classes, in my social studies class. It has been a week and a half since I have moved to New York and I am surprised on how different I am treated here than I was treated in London.

   First of all a lot of girls have crushes on me, even though that makes a lot of guys get mad at me…especially the ones with girlfriends obsessing over me. Second, I have made a lot of friends. Sam and Dylan have gotten more distant but I have mad three new friends, Adam, Farley, and Robin, who are my best friends. There is also Alex’s friends who I often see a lot as well. Third, I actually have a social life now. Sure I don’t have as much time to study since I am constantly being asked out or going somewhere with my friends.

   My birthday is in five months, sure that’s kind of a long time but I am excited for it. Alex already got me a gift apparently, he is psyched for my birthday to come up. Adam, one of my new friends, said he is going to throw a party for me. I have never actually had a real birthday party before. Since my family is poor I was lucky to get four cheap gifts and a birthday breakfast. 

   I was pulled away from my thoughts once the bell rang to dismiss us for lunch. Lunch and gym were there only times of a school day when I could see Alex. So I walked to the lunchroom being careful not to be trampled over all of the hungry teenagers. Sadly, being so clumsy I was the one who ran into an empty trashcan and fell into it, damn…

   I felt hands grab me by the hips and pull me out, I looked over to thank them and I saw that it was Alex.

“Falling into trashcans, aye? That’s a new one” he laughed.

I frowned at him, “I didn’t fall into it…I just thought the garbage bag needed a hug.”

“lucky garbage bag” he winked at me and of course I blushed. You would think of a week and a half of him saying flirtatious things I would be used to it by now, but I’m not, they seem to make my blush more and more each day.

   Only a couple other freshmen ate at this lunch. Most of the people here were Seniors and Juniors. I always sat with Alex, Lexy, Max, Derrick, and Caleb…then two other girls picked at random, just because they wanted to flirt with the “bad boys”.

   I sat down at the usually lunch table were Derrick and Caleb were already sitting, they were basically inseparable. Like usually, Caleb had is nosed buried in some huge book that seemed to be different each day. All I could see was his dark blue hair with black streaks in it. 

   Derricks eyes lit up when he finally noticed Alex and I.

“hi guys! I’m sorry I didn’t know you were there.” he paused and looked around, “Do you know if Lexy is here today? I really need to talk to her.”

Alec spoke up, “ I don’t know she isn’t in any of my morning classes.” he started looking around for the brown haired girl, she honestly scared me…a lot.

   I set my head on the table facing away from everyone else. I could feel Alex’s eyes on me.

“What’s wrong Jesse Bear?” Alex asked concerned

“Will stop calling me that! That is the fifth time in three days!” I shouted back at him.

“okay, Jesse” he said calmly with a warm smile on his face, which kind of made me feel bad I was so harsh and yelled at him.

“Sorry for being so mean, I’m just in a bad mood today, I guess”

“You wanna talk about it?” his voice was so amazing, and his New York accent really topped it off.
