A Certain Romance

Facebook Comments

A/N: I feel the need to apologize for the comments I chose.

I woke up to the feeling of some one shaking me.
"Huh," I murmur.
"Love we've landed, it's time to get off," Alex informs me.
I stretch before standing up to let him pass. Alex grabs our bags and we both exit the plane thanking the pilot when we get off. We go to pick up our luggage and we make it past customs fairly quickly. Once we step outisde I ask Alex,
"So where are we going to be staying, and how are we getting there?"
"I've left my car in the garage, we'll be heading over to my place and staying there," he tells me.
We make our way into the parking garage and go find his car. Once we find it Alex throws our luggage into the trunk and drives us to his house. "It's so weird sitting on the drivers side," I tell him.
"Your cars are the ones that are weird, and what is it with your measuring system?" He replies.
We continue chatting until we finally arrive at an apartment complex.
"I thought you had a house, not an apartment," I tell him confused.
"Well the entire fourth floor is my flat, so it's kind of a house," he explains.
We grab our luggage and walk to the elevator, Alex greeting the front desk lady as we pass her. Once we reach the third floor I'm in awe.
"This entire floor is really yours?" I ask again.
"Yup, it's a decent space I think," Alex laughs.
He shows me around the floor and leaves his bedroom for last.
"This here's my bedroom, you can stay here or in the guest room if that's more comfortable," he informs me.
"Thanks, I'll stay with you so we can keep eachother company," I say shyly.
Alex laughs and tells me "you can leave unpacking for tomorrow love, you look tired you should rest."
"Alright but what are you going to do while I sleep?" I ask him.
"The lads already informed me we're celebrating being home so I'll be busy with that."
"Just be safe," I tell him.
"I promise love," he says before kissing my forehead and turning off the lights. Once he leaves sleep quickly envelops me.
Alex POV
I already knew that the band only wanted to celebrate by getting piss drunk, but I didn't want to worry y/n so I left that part out when she asked me my plan. I let my mates know I was heading over and I started walking to the pub. It wasn't a far off walk and I arrived in 10 minutes flat. I walked in and saw that everyone already had a half empty drink.
"What took you so long Turner, busy shagging?" Jamie pipes up.
"Sod off," I reply as I hear them all laugh.
"Are you miserable lot gonna laugh at me all night or is someone gonna get me a pint?" I ask them.
"Relax Alex we've already ordered you two," Nick says still laughing.
I take my seat and grab at the first of two pints Matt shoves my way. Soon enough we're all hammered beyond belief and we start to lose control over what we're doing. Jamie and I are the only ones left at the table as Nick and Matt were off dancing with random birds they picked up.
"So, how's your bird doing Mr. Turner," Jamie says taking the piss.
I get flustered at his words as I begin thinking about y/n. I realized I had never asked about her about having a facebook so I decided to look her up on my phone.
Bloody. Fucking. Hell. I thought. I couldn't tell if it was my natural reaction or the alcohol in my system but I was compelled to tell y/n just how I felt about her. I began commenting on every one of her pictures before my phone died. Looking up I noticed Jamie and I were the only ones left in the pub so we decided to call it a night. He caught a cab and I walked back to my flat. Once inside I didn't even make it into my room before passing out cold on the sofa.
Normal POV
When I woke up I was confused about where I was until I remembered everything that had happened up to this point. I wondered if Alex got home safe and went to check my phone in case he sent me a message. When I saw my screen however I noticed that I had about 50 notifications for facebook. I freaked out thinking something tragic happened and went to open facebook. What I saw however was that all of the notifications were from from Alex, and they were all comments on my pictures. I clicked the first notification and read,
"*takes one look at you*
My jaw drops to the floor, my eyes extend at a velocity never before seen, I take out a boxing glove and hit myself with it 17 times, pant like a dog, and yell AOOOGA AOOOGA then turn to the audience and say in 1930's New York accent 'HOT MAMA, now that's a dame!'"
What the fuck. I exit and click on another comment.
"hey, sorry I saw your profile and I just thought you looked cute in your picture, I really wanted to tell you that)) It's really rare to see girls playing video games haha! I don't know why its a guy thing honestly im like really against misogyny and like ill be the one in the kitchen making sandwiches. We should really play l4d2 sometime its a really cool zombie game with a lot of scary moments, but don't worry ill be there to protect you ;) sorry that wasnt flirting I swear Im just trying to be friendly I really like your profile picture sorry was that too far? Really sorry i'm really shy I don't go out much haha add me we should talk more you look really nice and fun xxx"
I couldn't believe what I was reading. Was this really the guy I chose to date? There was no way Alex was serious writing all of this he had to have been drunk. I get up and go search around to see if he's made it home. Once I walk into the living room I see Alex sprawled on the couch. I slam a pillow into his face.
"WHAT THE FUCK," he yells out scrambling to get up. Once he realizes what happened he turns to me and softens his anger.
"Love you scared me half to death, what on earth was that for?" He asks.
"Oh you know, for filling up my comment section with all this shit? What was going on Alex were you drunk or something?" I say baffled.
"Oh that... yeah we might've had one pint to many. But I still got home safe," he adds.
I shake my head and turn to go get ready for the day but before I can leave the room I feel Alex hugging me from behind.
"Don't be cross with me love, I just couldn't contain myself seeing all of your pictures. You're incredibly pretty you know," he mumbles.
"You think I'm pretty?" I ask hesitantly.
"Of course I do, I mean we are dating aren't we," he smiles.
Alex kisses me on the cheek and finally lets me go.  I rush to go get ready and hope he doesn't notice how much I'm blushing.
