Chapter 4

Alex was drunk; he wasn't sure how many drinks he had consumed at Bobby's party. But his hazy mind rely didn't care at the moment. The teen fumbled with his house keys as he tried unsuccessfully to unlock the door, cursing under his breath incoherently about 'Jack never turning on the porch light'.

Alex had spent the majority of the night drinking and wondering the streets of London with Tom and David. Throughout the night they had started at BobbyWalters's house, thoroughly enjoying themselves despite the fact that most of the people there didn't like Alex, which most importantly including the host. Finally after a few ugly glares and comments and some nasty incident with some piss head spiting in David's drink the trio finally took the hint and left the party. Seeing that the mass majority of the party goer's negative vibes were bringing down the three happy time.

So throughout the rest of the night the three boys spent their time roaming down town drinking and for the most part acting like complete teenagers. If Alex hadn't been so drunk he would have realized the actual danger in walking the dark streets of London completely unprotected, and that it was a totally bad idea that a spy (let alone this spy) to allowed himself to become so intoxicated. But then again he was under a bit of stress and hadn't been thinking straight as he allowed David to put the first, seconded third… and so on bottle bear into his hand.

now that night was finally coming to a closes Alex was trying to get into the house silently without falling over his feet in the process which seemed a bit of a test. The sound of laughter filled the night air as Alex hit his head agents the door knob as he tried to put the key into the keyhole.

"ah, shit" he hissed in pain falling to his knees as a wave of dizziness over took him. Finally giving up on trying opening the door Alex sled off of his knees resting his back agents the door his eyes closed as he fought his dizziness.

"Alex, I think David's dead" came Tom's slurred voice.

Alex opened his eyes to look at his friends, shore enough there was David spiraled out in the grass looking all but dead. Tom stood kneeling over the red head swaying slightly as he tried to keep his balance.

" k-kick him" Alex suggested, he watched as the raven headed boy stud slowly paused to make shore he was balanced and lifted his foot to hick the unconscious boy in the grass only to lost his balance and stubble backwards landing hard on his back side.

Alex erupted into a laughing fit as Tom lay dazed on the ground beside there seemingly dead friend.

His laughter was soon cut off as he screamed in shock as the front door he was leaning against opened making him fall backwards hitting his head on the hallway floor.

"Alex were have you been" Jack screeched as she stud over him her hands on her hips.

Alex stared up at the housekeeper from his spot on the ground, groaning in pain as his head began to pounding at the sound of her voice.

"god is he drunk" came another female voice from inside the house as he tried to sit up but was stopped by another wave of dizziness.

"no… I'm not d-drunk" Alex slurred as he laid back down into the floor resting his face onto the cool tile floor at Jack's feet.

"yes you are I can smell you from here" Jack barked as he leaned over to help the blond boy to his feet.

"I'm not" Alex insisted

"god… your heavy Alex" Jack hissed as she helped him into the living room.

"uh…Jack there's two more out there" Alana called form the front door. Jack groaned as she dropped Alex onto the couch to hurry to the others.

After helping the two boys to the living room the two woman stud over the three drunken boys a identical look of displeasure on there faces. But Alex was the only one to notice it, for David and Tom were both passed out on the living room floor.

"Since when did you start drinking" Jack hissed as she glared at the blond boy

"I don't know…"

"I'm going to get him something to drink, to sober him up" Alana said as she hurried into the kitchen. A few minutes latter she came back with a stemming cup of goo that Alex couldn't identify.

What is that? Alex asked horrified as the girl placed the cup into his hand, looking down into it he felt his stomach flip in protest at the thought of digesting it.

"its just something I use to wipe up for Antonio when he would come to my place drunk, it always seem to work."

"I-I'm not drinking that" Alex slurred as he pushed the cup back into Alana's hands.

"yes you will, come on it'll take the edge off and you'll be thank nig me in the morning" Alana insisted as trusted the cup back into Alex's hand

"I said no-uh SHIT" Alex scrammed in pain as the cup fell into his lap, stemming hot gooey liquid seeped into the croch of his pants burning his sensitive aria.

"look what you did" Alex screeched as he jumped to his feet anger and pain clouding his mind as he threw the cup across the room, not even processing that as he did to his hand collided with something solid. Too engrossed in his own pain to realizes that he had just caused someone else pain too.

"Alex…" a small voce called, the sound of his name being called so quietly made Alex turn. What he saw confused him, he could feel is brows creasing as he looked down at Alana.

Why is she on the floor? What happened to her face?

It wasn't until is mind registered the throbbing if his hand that he began to realized what had happened.

Oh my god! Did I hit her?
