"do me a favour and ask if you need some help"
-the following week went great for me after i had a breakdown in alex's arms and cried myself to sleep. and before we knew it, it was Christmas Eve. i had already bought alex and the rest of the boys their gifts. it was around 10 am when i finished making breakfast for me and alex and decided to go to his room to wake him up. i had my record player on and "Out Of Time" by R.E.M was playing. god did i love that album and that band. i cracked open Alex's door and walked to his bed, got ready to jump on top of him. i counted til three internally and jumped on top of the sleeping guy
-Fuck!
-Morning sleepyhead
-What a nice way to wake your best friend up
the way he called me "best friend" made me feel something i couldn't put into worlds. i wasn't sad but i wasn't pleased with it either. did i want something more? i was trying to convince myself i didn't until alex started to tickle me and snap me out of my thoughts
-Alex stop!
-Not until you apologize
-You would do that to me all the time!
-But i would apologize afterwards
-Okay okay, I'm sorry I scared you
as soon as he heard my apology, he let go of me and started to get up
-Breakfast is in the kitchen table
-Okay love, sorry i couldn't be with you while you were preparing
-It's all good Alex
he blew me a kiss and went to the kitchen. after i used the bathroom i went inside to see him pouring himself a cup of coffee and sitting down
-How is the album coming along?
-Almost done. We even have a name for it now
-Really?! well tell me about it then!
-It's called "Suck It And See". and that's the title track. can't wait for you to hear it all
-I can't wait either. it will be flawless i have no doubts on that
-Thanks lola. thanks for being there for me through the entire process
-It's the least I could do alex. seriously. your work will never fail to amaze me and everyone else that listens to it
-I miss when we were on tour like crazy
-fucking same. that was the best time of my life
-let's go through the pictures and videos from tour after we finish eating
-I'd love to
after we got done and cleaned up, we sat by Alex'a computer and went through all the silly pictures and videos from tour. we looked so different back then even though it's been only 2 years since. it was nice to cherish the simpler times
-i miss it
-as long as we release this album we're going on tour again. at least i hope so
-i would love that. i miss the chaotic energy so much. it's so calm now it's like there's almost nothing to do
-exactly. but it's only the begging of our career. we have a long way to go.
-i will never forget Glastonbury 2007. that show was crazy
-one of the bests we've ever played i remember it just like yesterday
-i remember you telling me how nervous you were backstage but y'all went out there and destroyed that stage and I will always be your #1 fan
-you're too nice
-it's no problem, thanks for taking care of me the other day, i was seriously losing it. thank you for putting up with me. i really don't know how you do it
-being there for you is something I promised you and myself i would do until the day I die. and I'm serious. i will be there for you til my last breath
-thanks so much alex. i dont know what I'd do without you
-me too love
i just smiled at him and went to my room to change into daily clothes, my phone started ringing
-Hello?
-Hey Lolita, it's me
-Mom?
