Chapter Three:
The next morning, Alex texted him back. Blurry eyed, John checked his phone.
New Message From: Alex❤
Alex❤: Heyo
Me?: No, no, no. It's heyA
Alex❤: If you say so. So, what's up?
Me?: Nothing much, just figured I'd say hi.
Alex❤: Fair. This essay's killing me! ?
Me?: Aww... Want help?
Alex❤: I think i've got it, but still. Just a lot of work, you feel me?
Me?: Oh I *feel* you! ?
Alex❤: Hey, don't make me block you! ?
Alex❤: I'll have you know I'm a classy man who requires you to buy me dinner first.
Me?: Dinner, huh? That could be arranged.
Alex❤: I wish I could, but I've got to finish this essay. I'll beat myself up if I don't, you know?
Me?: Yeah, I get it. Well, sometime I should introduce you to Herc and I's other friends. That is, if you're not opposed.
Alex❤: Nope, that sounds good. We should certainly hang out outside of class one of these days!
John smiled, switching off his phone. He'd gotten a response, which was more than he was expecting to get, in all honesty. Maybe Alex could like him, although John doubted it. Most people were straight, right? Why should Alex be any different?
Hey guys, another chapter up! This one is extra short, but I think that it kind of works here, considering that it's a text conversation. Let me know if you guys like this style, and if I should continue to add phone conversations. Thanks!
