A/N - HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Alexander's POV

"Hey, John!" I smiled, he jumped and caught the book that fell out of his locker.
"H-hey, Alex." He stammered, John has the locker right next to mine and I know he likes me. I like him too and today I'm determined to ask him out.
"So...what are you doing after school?"
"I have football practice."
"And after that?"
"Nothing. Why?"
"I was thinking we could go out. Maybe get some dinner. If you're interested?" I smiled.
"S-sure."
"Cool, it's a date." John blushed and I smiled. I turned to leave but John grabbed my arm. He pulled a pen out of his locker and pushed up my left sleeve. He turned over my wrist and I winced. He started at the cuts for a moment before scribbling something down, he kissed my cuts and he was gone. I stared down at my wrist and then at the numbers scribbled on my forearm. I quickly pulled out my John and made John a contact.

AAAAAAAALEX!!!

John's POV

I pulled up to the address Alex gave me and huffed. I tightened my ponytail and knocked on the door. After a couple moments it swung opened and Alex grinned up at me.
   "Ready?"
   "Yeah." He locked the door and I opened the truck door for him. He climbed in and I slid into the driver's seat. We decided on a nice little diner and Alex had trouble opening the door. That was my fault. My truck is really old and that door takes a special amount for of strength that I realized Alex didn't have. I opened the door for him and offer my hand to help him out. He was obviously embarrassed and took my hand, stumbling out. He fell against me and quickly regained his balanced. "S-sorry." He stammered.
   "Nah, you're good." I smiled and held his hand, leading him to the door. I opened it and let him inside first. We sat across from each other at a both and a waitress took our order. Alex ordered a chocolate milkshake and I smirked at him.
   "What! I have a sweet tooth! Bite me!"
   "Ok." Alex blushed and I chuckled.
   "Ok what?"
   "Ok, I'll bite you." I winked, he blushed harder and kicked my shin. I laughed and he pouted. "Aw, c'mon! Do you really hate me now?"
   "Yes." Alex grinned, I giggled and shook my head.
   "I should go." I started getting up and Alex giggled. I sat back down and we chatted a little bit. "So...your parents are actually cool with me?" I asked after awhile, Alex looked at me for a moment and but his lip.
   "I live alone. I don't have parents?"
   "What? How? Why not?"
   "Well my dad walked out of our family and my mom died when I was twelve. My brother died in a hurricane two years ago. If you're sixteen you can legally live on your own." He shrugged.
   "I'm sorry."
   "Nah, it's fine." He smiled. "I have an entire two story house to myself." He grinned mischievously and I chuckled.
   "You're insane."
   "I know. What about you?"
   "What about me?" I frowned.
   "What's your family life like?"
   "Not much. I have two brothers and two sisters. My mom died of breast cancer when we were younger so-..." I shrugged and Alex smiled sympathetically.
   "I'm sorry."
   "It was a long time ago. Sometimes it still hurts."
   "I get that." He smiled, he placed his on mine and I blushed.
   "Here's your food." We pulled our hands away and I glared at the waitress. She passed out our food and Alex took a long sip of his shake. I watched him with a smirk and he glared at me.
   "Ay, what that mouth do?" He blushed and glared. He started to seductively drink the shake and I laughed. "Stop it, dork." He giggled and stop sucking the straw, letting a string of saliva draw out before breaking. That was sexy. My cheeks got hot and I shifted. The rest of the date went smoothly and I drove him home. I walked him to the door and watched him unlock it.
   "I had fun tonight."
   "Yeah. I did too." I chuckled nervously.
   "We should do this again." He smiled, turning to go inside. I grabbed his arm and put my hand on the back of his head, kissing him gently. He blushed and wrapped his arms around my neck. When I pulled away I smiled down at him and he fumbled with the door knob. "We-we should definitely d-do this again. Night, John."
   "Night, Lex." I smiled, I slipped off the porch and back into my car.
