Sorry it's been so long since I've updated the story, been kept really busy recently but I'll do better to keep up
By later that evening Alix was packing a backpack with a few items of clothing. Jalil came by her room and looked over at her. "So, off to Kim's for the night or are you going to deny that even though we both know you're going there?" he asked teasingly. "Okay so you were right and I was crushing on him. But I still don't want to." She said looking at him. "Alix, what's wrong with having someone else in your life? Look how far dad has come in life with having someone." He said and she sat on the edge of her bed. "But she's gone now, Jalil."
Jalil smiled as he sat beside her. "But she was there for him when he needed her. And now we're here for him. You're already independent so you have nothing to worry about. Allow yourself some fun and let someone in your life." He said kissing her head. Alix smiled a little and gave him a hug. "Alright if you're sure."
She finished grabbing her things and put them into her bag before sipping it up, tossed it over her shoulder and headed out of the house. She crossed the street and headed off towards Kim's place.
She arrived at Kim's house and knocked at the door. A minute later Kim opened the door and flashed her a smile. "So you did come." He said letting her inside. "Well, why wouldn't I?" she questioned watching him close the door before he walked passed her and towards a staircase. "Cause you got cold feet and decided you couldn't face the challenge." He said.
Alix scoffed.
"As if I would do that." She muttered following him up the stairs. He walked into his bedroom leaning against the wall. She stood in the doorway as she quickly looked over his room. His bed was in the far corner of the room by a window, a desk sat opposite the bed where his laptop was. A walk in closet at the end of his bed which also had most of his sports stuff stored in it. A bookshelf was just near the door with a few video games, comics and sport magazines.
"So uh, where am I sleeping?" she questioned and he chuckled. "Wherever you want, I don't really care. You can sleep in here, the couch, we could set up a mattress." Alix looked at him as she put her bag down. "Well whatever works for me. After all, this was your idea." She said poking his chest. "Yeah well it's not my problem that you agreed to this." He said grabbing her hand. She stared up at him locking eyes with him.
Honestly she could get lost in his eyes forever. She wished she could refuse it but she couldn't. Something about them just kept drawing her in. By the time she actually managed to come back to her senses, she was mere millimetres from his lips which were in that usual smirk.
"If you wanted a kiss, you just had to ask." He muttered before he pecked her lips. Alix pulled him down a little so he was more at her level. "If I wanted one, I wouldn't ask you." She said quietly. "Oh like you'd want a kiss from anyone else." He said before he nuzzled her neck. Alix almost caved when he did. It was so much harder trying to resist him now. "You just want me. To make you forget everything you hate about me."
He then turned and walked out of the room. Alix leant on the wall watching him walk down the stairs.
"You're an asshole Kim!"
"Yes but I'm your asshole."
"Shut up!"
The two were soon down for dinner and the two were quite civilised during it. Once dinner was over and they had finished cleaning up, the two of them moved to the living room and Kim switched the tv on.
"I hope we're not going to be bothering your parents." She said sitting cross legged on the couch. "Nah they usually just hang upstairs when I've got friends over." He said and she nodded. He sat down beside her as he switched on the video game and handed her a controller.
They were about two hours into the game when Alix's phone rang.
"Keep going, I'll be back in a minute." she said getting up and Kim nodded. She got up and walked out of the room looking at the phone to see Alya's name on the screen. She swiped across and put the phone to her ear. "Alya? Is everything okay?" she asked. "No everything's not okay! You haven't updated us on what's going on!" she said and Alix sighed heavily. "Oh c'mon can't you just wait till, I dunno, tomorrow?!" she asked. "No we need details!" Alya said excitedly.
"Alya! Please don't tell me all the other girls are there too." She said softly. "Uh yeah they're here. We're all waiting." Alya said. "Nothing's happened here, we're just playing video games." Alix said hitting her head on the wall. "Now can you just give me some space?" "Wait so no snuggles or kisses for Kim then? Aw Alix you're depriving him." Alya teased giggling. "Oh shut up. He's the one taunting me."
Alya laughed softly. "Well, you should just go along. Soon enough he'll actually do it and stop taunting because he'll get tired of playing games." "You seem to know that for a fact." Alix muttered shaking her head. "Girl, just go and have some fun with him." Alya said and Alix frowned. ""I was until you rang me!" she snapped.
She was so busy trying to get her girlfriends to leave her alone she hadn't realised the shadow creeping up on her. Alix almost jumped out of her skin when a hand grabbed her waist. "Alix?! Are you okay?" Alya called over the phone. "Yeah I'm fine. Kim just scared me that's all." Alix hissed as Kim chuckled.
"I'm bored Alix. You said a minute." he muttered. Alix frowned a little at him. "Alya, I've got to go. We can talk tomorrow." She said. "Just tell her you're busy." He muttered kissing her neck. "K-Kim shut up!" she muttered back. "Alright Alix, just make sure to update us on everything!" Alya said firmly. "Yeah, yeah I will. Ah! Kim!"
Alya giggled to herself as she hung up turning to her girlfriends. "Well, what's going on?" Mylene asked. "Well, nothing was happening till just before I hung up." She said and Marinette looked at her. "Well, I'm glad you hung up because we don't need that much detail." She said softly. "I hope you didn't annoy her too much either." Alya shrugged a little. "Probably but she'll have forgiven me by tomorrow." She said sitting on Marinette's bed. "Can't wait to hear what she has to say tomorrow."
