AN: Set after Mini's episode PS, I do not own any Skins characters, despite wishing.

Mini's view on Alo is slowly changing, and she doesn't like it one bit.

POV - Narrator

Mini walked swiftly down the corridor. College was quieter when lessons were in session. She stopped outside the classroom door and took a deep breath.

"Be brave. You're being stupid" she quietly muttered to herself.

With a last small sigh she grasped the door handle and quietly made her way to her seat with her head down; for fear of catching Nick's gaze.

The class seemed to be in mid-discussion, with Grace rambling on as usual about something or other.

"I think it's lovely, the way we can all share our experiences; don't you think Rich?" Grace turned to Rich expectedly.

"Err, I suppose." He returned as they all exited the classroom.

"What about you Mini?" she asked

"What?" Mini wasn't really paying attention. All she was focusing on was Nick and Liv playfully touching each other as they walked down the hall.

Grace sighed.

Alo slung his arm over Grace's shoulder. "No worries Grace. I completely agree" he beamed.

"Urm, excuse me; get your own girlfriend" Rich forcefully removed Alo's arm from Grace's shoulder.

"I'll have you know there are plenty of women out there would love a piece of this" Alo gestured to his body.

Franky couldn't help snorting in amusement. "Whatever you say Alo" she said, a smile still playing on her lips.

"Fucking hell. Am I that unattractive?"

"Yes, now shut the fuck up and let's go" Rich replied and he retreated towards the exit.

He was soon stopped by Grace.

"Are you alright Mini?" Grace worried expression made the others turn to face her.

She could feel the warm, salty tears trickling down her face as she watched a now embracing Nick and Liv, locked in a passionate kiss.

"I- I'm fine. I h-have to go" she turned a sped past the gang, too upset, and too damn blurry eyed to see where she was going.

Mini

Why would she do this to me?

Is this really what friends end up doing to each other?

Fighting? Stealing each other's boyfriends?

I wandered down the street. My mind swimming with thoughts of Liv and Nick.

Well, that was until I felt a presence of someone beside me.

Or rather something.

A large blue van cruised slowly to match my pace.

"Minerva McGuiness!"

I recognized the voice straight away.

"What'd you want farm boy?"

"Now that's just plain rude. True. But rude nonetheless"

I stopped as the van ground to a halt. "I'm serious. What is it that your here for?"

"Grace sent me. Wanted to see if you were alright" He popped his head out of the window, whilst resting his arms on the frame.

"Why couldn't she do it herself?"

"Because I offered. It's not exactly like I've got anything better to do. Besides, cheering up fair maidens has never been one of my strong points, so I thought now would be a good time to learn"

I had no idea what this boy was on. He continued talking even after I didn't reply.

"So, d'you want a lift then?"

"Where?"

"Wherever the lady wants," he grinned,

I didn't really want to go home, my mother was probably having sex with some new man she met somewhere.

He must have sensed the distress on my face and came out with,

"There's this party. Not too flashy, quite chilled. Maybe you want to go? C'mon, I'll even let you smoke some of my best weed"

I couldn't help but smile a little. "Where is it?"

"Over at Nicks,"

My face dropped. For a second there I forgot all about Nick... and Liv.

"Actually I have to go home" I turned and quickly started walking.

"Wait!"

I didn't. That didn't stop him following me up the street.

"You're an annoying little bastard, you know that?"

"I'll take that as a compliment" he chuckled,

All I could do was groan under my breath.

"Look, if you don't want to come to the party, fair enough. But fuck it, I've got a bottle of vodka, a shitload of Bristols finest green, and no one to enjoy it with,"

Vodka sounded good right now. I gazed at his pleading face.

He leaned his head closer toward me.

"Live a little" he whispered,

I didn't want to give in. I didn't even like him or his weirdo emo friend. But right now, we had something in common. And he had something I required.

I sighed.

He grinned yet again, this time in triumph before climbing out of the van. "What are you doing?"

Before I knew it, he had walked around the other side of the van, and now held the door open for me.

"Your carriage awaits mi'lady" he chuckled again,

It was all I could do to keep from smiling.

My eyes fluttered open. I was in an unfamiliar room, which stank of cheap alcohol, and another unfamiliar stench.

My eyes drifted to a close again. I could feel someone beside me; something was poking into my back...

I leapt up.

There lieing with his face in a pillow, was Farm boy.

It was now that I made a shocking revelation.

I was naked.

What do you guys think? It's my first story on Mini/Alo so lemme know! Thanks!
