Chapter 2
Justin's POV
I gave Alex one of my old phones so when she needs me she can call me. It's her 19th today and I said I'd take her for something to eat apparently Logan (or as I like to call him the jerk) disappeared a few days ago she told me he does that quite a lot, so on top of abusing her mentally and physically he abandons her probably dealing and hooking up with all the girls…quite a catch huh? My phone started to ring it was Alex "Hey" "Hi I'll be over in 5" "I'm ready so that's fine" "Awesome".
The door knocked exactly 5 minutes after she called talk about great timing. I check myself in the mirror, grabbed my keys, picked up the gift I got her and headed to the door. I opened the door and she gave me that cute smile. "Happy Birthday you look great" I could see a slight blush when I said that "Thanks you don't look so bad yourself" I just laughed. She grabbed my arm and I locked the door. "You know Justin you didn't have to do this" she said to me while we walked to my car "It's fine no biggie it's you birthday and you've been studying hard" I said she just smiled and said "Thanks".
I made reservations for this little Italian restaurant down town I remembered Alex told me she loved Italian food. Everyone in town goes there its quiet the decoration is lovely and the atmosphere is peaceful and quiet its wonderful for a night out "This place is…. Amazing how did you swing this at such short notice" "Let's just say I know the owner" Yeah Kelbo Russo the owner is my uncle and here he is coming towards us right now "Hey Justin and this must be Alex" "Hey" "Hi" Alex said I could tell she was a little shy "A nice girlfriend you've got there Justin" I can't believe he just said that "Uncle I told you she's my friend" he didn't reply he just lead us to are table as soon as we sat down in a small quiet booth and he walked off giving us are menus I spoke up "I'm so sorry about that my Uncle seems to think that every girl I take out is my girlfriend" "So you take girls out a lot" she said while raising her eyebrow, what did I just say "Well no.." "Relax I'm just messing with you a bit your face hilarious" she laughed I just laughed with her I have to admit she got me good.
Alex's POV
"Have you seen anything on the menu you like" he asked me, there was so much and I didn't want to get something that was majorly expensive that would be pushing it to say the least "I honestly have no idea what about you?" "I was thinking the chicken parmesan" I looked back at the menu the calamari looked nice and it was too bad "I think I'll get the calamari".
We've been talking and eating and drinking for the hour and it's been great. Justin has been telling me about all the times in high school when he got in trouble and I'm surprised I thought he was a goody two shoes at school all the time but boy was I wrong we were currently talking about first kisses "Mine was the worst we knocked heads at least three times before I actually got it right" he said "Bet mine was worse it was in the school playground under a tree and Jack had cheese breath" I laughed "Ok, ok you win oh before I forget here's your gift and don't even say you didn't have to I wanted to" he's honestly the best he pulled out a little birthday bag and handed it to me, I looked at him curiously "Open it I want to see if you like it" so I did inside the bag was a long tiffany's box… oh my gosh he didn't my eyes were wide and my mouth was wide open I took the box out the bag and opened it was a diamond encrusted bracelet "Justin.." I didn't know what to say I was lost for words "Do you like it" he asked "I...I love it I can't believe you got me this thank you" I leaned over and gave him the biggest bone crushing hug ever "Your welcome I'm glad you like it" "This is the best birthday ever". We pulled apart "Shall I put it on you?" "That would be great" and he did the happiness was cut short because when I looked up I saw Logan with a girl and a couple of his mates "Oh my goodness that's Logan" I said to him in a frantic voice "What the one with his arm around that girl who's wearing way to much make up" "Yeah that's him we have to get out of here if he sees me he'll kill me" "You know I won't let that happen but we should leave" he called the waiter over and he gave us the bill he paid the waiter came back and took the money and with that he took my hand and we ran out. "That was so close" I sighed. "Well what should we do now do you want to come over" "Yeah I guess Logan won't be home till tonight if he shows up" I said while rolling my eyes.
We were in his living room just talking "So Justin why doesn't a great guy like you not have a girlfriend?" "I did a few months ago but it didn't work out we wanted different things you know" I nodded "So if you don't mind me asking how did you meet Logan" "We went high school together and I youst to have a thing for bad boys the ones who got in trouble I had a crush on him and he found out and asked me on a date and I said yes he's the first and only boyfriend what a mistake" I admitted "Don't beat yourself up about it you were young" I just smiled at him "I just wish I had listened to my parents" "Maybe I could take you to see them I'm sure there looking for you Alex they must be pretty worried" That was a sweet idea but Logan would find out and what would my parents do if they saw me again "I don't know maybe…" he nodded. "So what do you want to do birthday girl". For the rest of the evening we watched films talked some more drank and then at about 1 he walked me home "Night Alex" he said and kissed me on the cheek and waved "Bye Justin" I was sad that he was gone I missed him already what was wrong with me. I need to go to bed my heads all over the place at the moment.
At about 4 I heard Logan and a few others come in, there was a lot of screaming and shouting and I'm sure I heard a few things smash. I'm probably going to have to clean that up later all of a sudden I heard the stereo on full blast. I need some rest and I'm a really light sleeper him and his mates are such jerks err.
Few Weeks Later
The exams today I've studied my hardest I hope it just pays off "It will be fine just go in there thinking positive you'll do great" he said reassuring me. I was doing the exam in the local library and Justin was going to pick me up in a few hours. He gave me a hug and I walked in taking a deep this was it. I logged on and started the exam…
Justin's POV
I'm waiting outside the library she'll be down any minute now I really hope she does well she's been working really hard. Oh she's coming right now I can't tell by her face how it went but I'm hoping great. She suddenly runs up to me "I passed I can't believe I did it" she squealed I'm ,I'm so proud of her right now "I knew you could do it" "Justin thank you so much you're the best If It wasn't for you I wouldn't be feeling like this right now" she hugged me I loved to see her happy we pulled apart and she looked at me and did the unthinkable… she kissed me and I didn't stop her I actually responded and it was nice… really nice she pulled away after 2 minutes "I'm sorry" "Don't be" I said honestly she just smiled we stood there it was and awkward silence which I decided to break "Well let's celebrate I'll take you out tonight" "Where to" she asked "Anything you want it's your day" she smiled "To be honest I'd rather just stay and yours and have a takeaway if you don't mind" "That actually sounds great what do you want Chinese or Indian?" "Surprise me".
That kiss was unexpected to say the least she was probably just really excited that she passed right? Yeah that's right were just friends and she's in a relationship at the moment we'll kind of. Ok the foods on the table and she texted me saying she was on her way so now I just have to wait.
Alex's POV
I'm walking to Justin's house. Alex what were you thinking kissing him earlier he's not interested you're a 19 year old teenager and he's a 25 year old he probably thinks I'm crazy although he said it was fine he's nice he wouldn't say it wasn't he probably won't call me again after tonight and that would be a shame cause I really like him and maybe more ok I have a crush ok who can blame me he's amazing and he treats me like how a boyfriend should treat a girlfriend. What if he likes me too I'm not going to straight up say to him I like you do you like me or he really won't call me again. What about Logan well that feeling for him went away a while ago what would he do if he found out about what I've been doing the past couples months worse than beat me up I'm guessing. I knocked on Justin's door. "Hey genius" he said I could tell he was really proud and happy for me I walked inside "Well its cause of you" he led me into the kitchen "Foods here" I sat down and he did too.
He poured some wine in both of are glasses "Let's do a toast to you Alex for passing your GED" I pulled my glass up and so did he and we lightly knocked them on each other.
"Justin I'm sorry about you know earlier and the whole kiss I don't want things to be awkward" I said "Honestly Alex I don't mind you were happy it was an in the moment thing" No I wanted to kiss you it wasn't an accident believe me but I can't tell him that. "Ok there is officially nothing on T.V" I grabbed the remote off him "There must be something on you've like got more than 100 channels" I said while surfing through them what I didn't realise is that my other arm was rubbing his leg once I realised I stopped…obviously the thing is he didn't say anything so either he liked it, he didn't realise or it wasn't a big deal. I decided to scoot a bit closer to him to see if he moved and guess what he didn't. Did he like it was he into me oh my gosh what if he was ok I can't take this I want to know if he likes me I'm not a patient person to say the least, so I'm taking the flirting up a notch I took his hand he didn't even pull away in fact in just started rubbing it ok I'm talking now "Justin" "Yeah" he replied really casually "You know we've um got close and everything" I said "Yeah It's been great getting to know you better" he said "Yeah it's been amazing and I'm really started to like you" "Same here" he said I don't think he knows what I mean "No I mean like you like you" now he got it "Oh well I guess I like you too not guess I do like you "he admitted "Really" I said "Yeah really what's not to like" I just smiled at him "I really love your smile". I leaned my head on his shoulder and we just played with each other's hands. I lifted my head up and kissed him and he responded literally straight away.
We've been making out on his couch for about 30 minutes now and there comes a point when your hands start roaming to other places and once I started pulling on the buttons off his shirt he pulled away "What's wrong" I asked him "It's just that your 19 and I'm 25 and I don't want you to feel like you have to do this I don't want to take advantage of you I want to respect you, you know" I nodded "Age isn't anything but a number and I came on to you so you're not taking advantage so don't worry we care about each other don't we?" he nodded "Well then lets show each other that" I smiled and so did he it was sweet how he wanted to make sure I was sure I wanted to do this no one's done that before it made me feel kind of special I guess. "Maybe we should go to my room" he suggested "Lead the way" I said and followed him.
"Before we start I want to be open with you you're the third girl I'll be doing this with" I nodded "And you'll probably be the only person that means something to me that I'm doing this with" We both leaned into each other and started kissing each other it was just magical every kiss got better than the last it was amazing I felt like I was on cloud 9 he was so gentle not rough at all. I removed his shirt and got a glimpse of his abs for the first time I must say I'm impressed he obviously works out.
Justin's POV
She's amazing and I can't believe were doing this I'm really nervous I don't want her to be disappointed I want to please her, for some reason she's not like the other girls there something about her that makes me want to go the extra mile. Ok so everything's officially gone and I'm just admiring her "Your beautiful Alex" I whispered "You're not so bad yourself" she laughed.
It was amazing and I wouldn't take it back if I could we just fit with each other perfectly she was by far the best. "No one's ever made me feel like that Justin" she said "I, I think I love you" and I think I loved her to as far as I was concerned she was flawless "I love you too" and for the rest of the night we just lay in each other's arms.
The last couple weeks have been amazing with her and I get upset when she has to leave but we text in the night. I feel like a love struck teenager it's bizarre I never knew I could feel like this. I think she's the one.
