All morning I was waiting for Alexander’s call. Finally at 12.53pm he called me and told me to look out of the window. I walked over to the window and opened it. I looked around till I spotted Alexander waving his hands down on the ground. He looked adorable in his skinny jeans, loose striped shirt and a bowler hat.
“Come down.” He said thru the phone. I rushed down as quickly as possible.
“Hey.” Alexander said, hugging me.
“So what’s the plan?” I asked.
“Well… there’s this party or more like a little get-together later at the abandoned ice-factory, and I thought we could go.”
“Sounds good, but I can’t go to a party looking like this.” I said, giving him the puppy eyes.
He smirked and said, “Well maybe we need to go look a new outfit for you.” I took his hand and led him to the hotel.
“Fancy much?” Alexander questioned.
“Yeah, my parents only travel in style.”
“Now let’s go choose something fabulous for you.”
We went through almost every piece of clothing I had brought with me until we found the one. Surprisingly it was the outfit we bought few days ago. Black jeans and a short sleeved button up shirt.
The party started at 6, so we had few hours to kill.
When we arrived to the party a little pass 6 it was full on. It was mainly at the roof of the building. People everywhere, a lot of alcohol and music blasting loudly. I had been to a few house parties back in San Fran but nothing like this.
“Let me introduce you to my friends.” Alexander said, pulling me with him.
“This is Samantha, Sam for short, Max and Gustav. And this is the famous Jamie from the land of America.”
“It’s great to finally meet you Jamie, Alexander won’t shut you about you.” Sam said. I saw Alexander blush from the corner of my eye. “Oh and I’m Alex’s best friend, not these two dumbasses.” She continued.
“Rude.” Gustav said, pushing Sam aside. “No, I am the important one.”
Alexander laughed and walked over to Max, “Oh come on guys, you know I love you all.”
Sam and Gustav stood next to me, “Bullshit.” They said the same time. After talking and getting to know Alexander’s friends better, him and I went to get drinks.
“Your friends seem great.” I said, taking to the drink Alexander handed to me.
“Yeah they are, just a bit weird sometimes.” He laughed. As we were talking, a guy who looked slightly older started to walk over to us. He was wearing all black and a leather jacket to top it all off. He had dark hair that was styled to a quiff.
“Was ist los Alex?” (What’s up Alex?) He said, giving Alexander a half hug.
“Nicht viel. Haben Sie nicht in eine Weile gesehen.” (Nothing much. I haven’t seen you in awhile.) Alexander said, smiling. I was a little confused, mostly cause I had no clue what they were talking about.
“Ich habe gerade aus London zurückgekommen.” (I just came back from London.) the guy said.
“Oh ja, das ist Jamie. Er ist aus Amerika.” (Oh yeah, This is Jamie. He’s from America.) Alexander said, pointing at me. Was he introducing me? I wondered.
The guy looked straight at me and said in his thick accent, “Wie liebenswert (How adorable), I’m Ulrich and you’re cute. Let’s hook up, shall we?” I almost choked on my drink when he said the last part.
“Ulrich! Er ist mein, also nicht.” (Ulrich! He’s mine, so don’t.) Alexander said, hitting Ulrich softly. Still no clue what he said. I should probably learn German already.
“Sorry.” Ulrich said, smirking. Alexander wrapped his arm around me and whispered in my ear, asking if I wanted to dance. I nodded in response. He said something to Ulrich before leaving, but in German again so I didn’t understand.
“Who was that guy?” I asked.
“Just an old friend.” He said shortly. I don’t think he was telling me everything but I decided to let it go. I did want to know more about this mysterious guy named Ulrich.
As the night went on, I got to know more about Alexander friends. I was looking over where Alexander was talking to Ulrich. They seemed very close. I wondered did Sam or Gustav know anything about Ulrich. It couldn’t hurt to ask, right?
“What’s the deal between those two?” I asked pointing at Alexander and Ulrich.
“They have been friends for ages and he was Alex’s first boyfriend.” Sam said. “Oh and before you ask, yes he is older. He’s 22.” She continued. They dated? Oh…
“Don’t look so worried. There’s nothing going on anymore. They are over and done with.” Gustav said. But I still couldn’t help but be a little jealous.
Alexander started to walk towards up. “The sun is about to go down, you want to join me?” He asked me. Obviously I agreed. We we’re all snuggled up ready to watch the sunset. It was nice and I didn’t want that moment to end. I looked at Alexander and beautiful features. I was really starting to like this guy a lot and I wanted to show it to him. I kissed his cheek, making him look at me.
“What was that for?” He asked, smiling.
“Just a little kiss for a friend...” I responded, giving him a small wink.
“Well then I can give a little kiss for a friend, can’t I?” Alexander’s lips touched mine and he started to kiss me passionately. I could feel the butterflies in my stomach making flips. It was perfect.
Our passionate kiss must have gone on for awhile cause by the time our lips parted the sun had gone down and the darkness was surrounding us.
“We probably should go join the others.” I said.
“Maybe soon.” Alexander said, snuggling closer to me and leaning his head to my shoulder. These were the little moments I wish never ended.
The party went on for hours and it felt like it was never going to end. I don’t know was it the fact that I was a little drunk but I was getting tired. I asked Alexander if we could go and he agreed. Alexander insisted on walking me back to the hotel, he was sure I would have gotten lost.
“You wanna stay over? I’m sure my parents won’t mind or even notice.” I mumbled. Alexander thought about it awhile but said yes. We quietly snuck into the hotel room and soon fell asleep in my bed all cuddled up.
