CHAPTER THREE: Relief Next To Me
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Degrassi.
Jay lay on his back with the covers only covering his bottom half. He was panting in an attempt to steady his breath. A child-like smile fell right into place on his smile and Alex could tell, it would take some severe damage to make it vanish.
She didn't understand. The two of them used to have mind blowing sex that included scratching, screaming, pushing, pulling, swearing, and sometimes bleeding. That's how they liked it and that's what made both of them so passionately raw for one another. It made no sense. They were still Jay and Alex. How come no fireworks lit off? She was bored. She found herself missing Paige's little butterfly kisses the entire eleven minutes and six seconds.
Jay on the other hand was pleased as punch with himself and to have Alex back. In his life, the sun was shining bright.
"That was awesome." He let out stupidly and then followed it with a, "Whoo!"
"Yeah, whatever." Alex sat up and grabbed her underpants from the end of the bed and became to step into them, foot by foot. "Let's watch the game. We missed the first five minutes." She groaned, carelessly.
"Whoa," He reached his arm around her stomach and tried pulling her back, but she never budged. He finally sat up and spoke to the back of her. "What's going on? Was it bad for you?"
"No," She shrugged her shoulders and lied. Alex then stood up and jumped into her pants while doing up the top button. "Well, it was kind of boring."
"Boring?" Jay was insulted. "No way. It must be you." He scoffed.
"Thanks." She rolled her eyes knowing he didn't mean that at all. She looked around the room for her top and bra on the floor.
"Well, come on, what would make it better?" Jay watched her and thought about it. "Oh, is this because of your lesbian stint?" He said very patronizingly. Alex couldn't believe he called it a stint. She felt so degraded. "Why don't you invite one of your friends tomorrow?"
"If you think you're getting anything tomorrow after today, you're high."
"What?!" Jay didn't follow.
"Don't call it a stint, Jay, okay?" She shouted, finally finding her bra by his door. "It is - It was…I don't know, just, shut up, okay?"
"Is this about Paige?" Jay frowned his eyes while grabbing his shirt from over his lap, without any idea how it wound up there, and he rolled it up to pull it over his head.
"No!" Alex didn't want to be reminded of the girl she was crazy for. She especially didn't want to hear Jay say Paige's name. "It's not. I'm over her. I hate her."
She sharply stated. It came out of her mouth so easily, but she felt it pull at her insides to day that.
"Are you sure about that, Lexi?" He asked while finishing putting his jeans on and then cornering his topless girlfriend against his bedroom door.
"Yes." She said rudely and then pulled his head down by the neck and kissed him like she used to when she wanted to make the rest of the room jealous or get him erect.
"Now, let's watch the game." She let him go quickly, making him shake on his feet.
Then, she slid out of his room while putting her top on and wandered into his family room where a family never actually sat.
Jay went to get the chips Alex had brought over from his kitchen. He had earlier thought that he heard Alex murmur Paige's name while having sex, but that assumption was erased easily after the kiss she'd just given him. He heard Alex's phone on his kitchen table next to the grocery bags beeping.
"You got low battery, Lex." He shouted at her in the other room.
"Meh, I'll charge it later." She didn't care. What was she going to do about it at his house?
Jay slyly opened up the phone and went through her call history. He was happy to see Paige was only at the bottom as a received call. The only thing that bothered him was Alex had put her name as: Paige M. 3
Jay knew he was getting played and as much as that hurt, he decided to leave things the way they are. He had Alex, at least somebody was pretending to care about him and that was better than usual.
