 I had gotten a text from him today, six days after our phone call that today was the day it’s all going down and fuck was I nervous. I have to have Alex out at dinner with me, as well as the rest of All Time Low around two in the evening. I have about an hour and a half to get my part of this into action.

“I’m going to shower.” I tell Alex and kiss him quickly before heading off to grab some clothes and heading to the bathroom. In the shower, I take a bit longer than I should, getting lost in my own thoughts. This plan, it’s starting to scare me, the whole idea. I know it has to happen. If it doesn’t I’ll never have Alex truly to myself. Something would always be in the way, that’s what he convinced me.

I don’t trust him very much though. He scares me. I know what he does, and the kind of things he has a reputation for. Everyone who knew him in school knew his reputation after graduation happened. He’d always seemed like such a nice guy, so trustworthy. When really, he’s manipulative. He’s very charismatic. He’s even deadly, and I know that from experience. He’d punched me once when I’d messed up while doing this plan.

Shaking the thought from my mind, I get out of the hot shower and throw on my yellow sundress. I have forty five minutes left once I’m totally ready. Shit. Trying to look like I’m not rushing, I slip my shoes on and sit with all of the guys talking for a few minutes before finally bringing up the idea of going out for dinner, on me.

“Where to?” Rian asks. The guys have warmed up to the idea of Alex and I being together a bit. I understand why they don’t like the idea very well. I never treated him very well when we dated before. I admit, I played him more than I ever should have. He’s a gem. And then I know I fucked up when I did what I did to Riley in school. That was what had finally ended whatever we had or whatever was possible. Sometimes I think if I didn’t do that, we could have been together normally, and not like this.

But here we are, this is the situation I am in, and I have to accept that and try not to think about it. “I don’t know. Anywhere, you guys can pick.” I say finally and try to fixate a smile onto my face.

Jack shrugs. “I’m down.”

We decide to go to a buffet that’s about a fifteen minute drive, leaving me with twenty minutes before all of the shit goes down. This took a lot of scheduling on his part, and I pray nothing happens to me. As I hand the cashier the money for all of us, Alex looks at me with an unsure expression, I smile at him and continue to pay. I slip my hand inside of his, letting the electricity through me as we find our seats.

“Are you sure you want to pay?” Alex finally asks.

I playfully nudge him. “Babe, I already paid. I got it, trust me.” I kiss his cheek gently before grabbing his hand and leading him to the buffet. I end up getting a good amount of shrimp with a salad and head back to the table, earning looks from Rian and Jack.

Jack got three legs of chicken and mac and cheese with a big clump of cake beside all of that. With a full mouth, he says, “A buffet full of heaven and you get a salad?”

I chuckle. “Hey! I like salads. I have shrimp too, you know.” Zack comes back with a plateful of spaghetti and garlic bread.

“Hell, Zack got more than you. He’s a fitness freak, too.” Rian jokes as he shoves a forkful of green beans into his mouth.
