That night Alex was standing in Sadie's bedroom while Jude and Sadie looked her up and down. She had on a strapless, teal dress. It hugged her body to her hips before flaring out loosely until it ended just above her knees. The bottom part was full of layers of that flowed every time he moved. She also had on three inch sliver heels. Her red hair was loosely curled and her make up was dramatic but gorgeous. With thick eyeliner and mascara, silver eye shadow, and light pink lip gloss. She had on diamond studded white gold hoops and a matching choker. By the way, the only thing she owned was the dress.
Sadie: You look gorgeous
Jude: Totally
Alex: Thanks guys
Jude: Where's Spied taking you?
Alex: I have no idea
Jude: (laughing) Sounds like Spied
Sadie: If your only pretend dating, why do you have to go out together?
Alex: Because if we aren't seen together, no one will believe were together. And even though the only person who we really need to make believe us is Tyler, if were only a couple around him people will know something's up
Sadie: Very true
They doorbell rang and Sadie went to answer it. Alex grabbed her over night bag and her and Jude followed Sadie down the hall. Spied was standing downstairs in a white button down with black jeans and black and white Etnies. His hair was perfect and he had pink roses in his hand. Alex smiled at him and put her bag at the bottom of the stairs before reaching for the roses.
Alex: They smell and look great-
Jude: But what up with the flowers?
Spied: (laughing) Isn't that normal on a date?
Jude: Not a fake one
Spied: (fake scoffing) Does this look fake?
Jude: Yes
Spied: Don't listen to her Alex, she's just jealous
Alex: Oh I know. She can be such a pain sometimes
Spied smiled at the three sisters before picking up Alex's bag and opening the door. Sadie took the flowers to get a vase filled with water and Alex said good bye to her and Jude before following Spied to his car. She bust out laughing as Spied backed out of the driveway.
Alex: If the rock star thing doesn't work out, you should try acting
Spied: Thanks. This is actually pretty fun
Alex: What is?
Spied: The "dating". Its all one big game, and your pretty good at it
Alex: (shrugs her shoulders) I think of it as a game, something to do for fun. I make a game of trying to get people to believe me. Besides, messing with the junior and senior girls is always fun
Spied: (laughing) You definitely look like you enjoy it
Alex: Oh, I do … so, where are we going?
Spied: Infinity
Alex: The new club-ish place?
Spied: Yep. Half of it is a dance club and the other half a restaurant with great food
Alex: Wow. Thanks
Spied: What for? I'm gonna have fun too
Alex: (laughing) I hope so
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When they got there they walked in with Spieds arm around her shoulders (the senior girls waiting in the line to get in were shooting her daggers) and followed the hostess to a table on the right side of the dance floor. Once the hostess left Alex looked around in awe.
Alex: How did you get us a place here?
Spied: Shay apparently doesn't hate me and T-Bone has a hook up
Alex: Right
Spied: (rolls his eyes) Jude asked him to do it
Alex: (laughing) That sounds better
Spied: Ha-ha
Half an hour later Spied turned to her with a mischievous smile before pulling her onto the dance floor. He walked through the couples dancing until he found a spot and turned to Alex, smiling playfully
Alex: What's going on Vinny?
But before Spied could answer Shay appeared on stage, Alex bust out laughing.
Shay: How's it going Toronto?! (applause) Well hey everyone. As you all know, I'm Shay. Now, before I start this new song I want to introduce you to some friends of mine. Give it up for Spiederman and Alex Harrison!
The spotlight hit them and her and Spied couldn't help laughing.
Alex: Long time no see Shay-Shay!
Shay: You know it! Last time I saw you, you were a big fan!
Alex: Yeah right. That's as likely as Spied here being friends with Tommy
Spied: Not gonna happen!
Shay: That hurts Shorty
Alex: I thought that was Jude, and I never said we weren't friends
Shay: (smiling) Well, this first song is dedicated to them
Shay started the song and the spotlight was turned back to the stage. Alex turned to Spied.
Alex: So that's why he got us a spot, having friends in the crowd who are normal people makes him look better
Spied: Yep. But we got in for free, so why fight it?
Alex: True
At first, the dancing was kind of awkward, but by the time Shay started his second song they had both relaxed and were flowing with the music. Alex turned and started grinding on Spied and he leaned down to whisper in her ear,
Spied: For a frosh, your good at this
Alex: Why thank you Spiedy, your pretty good yourself
Spied stood up straight again and Alex kept up the motion and looked up, immediately seeing Tyler and Gabi across the dance floor, doing the same thing. The exception being Gabi shooting daggers at her while Tyler glared at Spied. Alex turned to grind on the front and rested her hands on Spieds chest. That got his attention and he looked down at her.
Spied: What?
Alex: Their here, watching us
Spied: What?
He looked up and turned his head to look at Shay, who shot Alex a smile, but they watched Tyler and Gabi out of the corner of their eyes, still staring at them. Spied smirked as he looked back at her.
Spied: Wanna have some fun?
Alex: What do you have in mind?
Spieds hands slowly moved down her body while she kept up the grinding motion. They hit her hips, then her waist, then rested on her butt and pulled her closer, she looked down to keep from busting out laughing as she flowed closer to him. She looked up with a fake glare.
Alex: Your evil
Spied: Take a look
She once again watched Tyler and Gabi from the corner of her eye, and Tylers face was bright red as he glared at Spied, who Alex knew was smirking and forcing himself not to look at Tyler. Gabi was also bright red and shooting her daggers.
Alex: Okay, you're an evil genius
She smiled up at Spied and when the song ended they made their way to the table hand in hand. They sat down and joked and laughed and five minutes later looked up to see Tyler and Gabi standing there.
Alex: Hi Gabi
Spied: Hey Ty
Tyler: Spied
Gabi: Hi Alex
Tyler: Spied, can I talk to you?
Spied: Sure dude. I'll be back in a few Alex
Alex: Don't take too long, I want to dance again
Spied: Of course
He winked at her and Tyler and Gabi's expressions darkened. Spied got up and followed Tyler across the club to a dark corner no one was standing in. When they were out of the way and no one could hear them, Tyler wheeled.
Tyler: Dude! You know that's my Alex!
Spied: Well, no, no she isn't
Tyler: … what?!
Spied: You choose Gabi over her, that's means she's free for anyone, including me, to date
Tyler: What?!
Spied: You cant like her that much if you choose someone over her. And by dating someone else, you made her free territory. So now I'm dating her
Tyler; But you're a senior-
Spied: Dating a freshman … and?
Tyler: How could you?!
Spied: Easy. She's hot, and a good kisser
He smirked at his brother and Tyler looked ready to explode
Tyler: Fine, whatever
Spied: Thanks so much for your blessing
He rolled his eyes and turned his head to watch Alex across the club, talking to Gabi. He could tell Gabi was throwing digs at her and Alex was trying very hard to brush them away.
Spied: Can I go now? I came here to spend time with my girlfriend, not get yelled at by my brother
Tyler: Of course
He forced a smiled and Spied, smirking, followed his brother back across the club.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At eleven o'clock Spied walked out of the club with Alex. She was pushing her school night curfew since she was planning on sneaking in Sam's window anyway. Nana went asleep soon enough not to know she had snuck in so late. She got in the car with Spied and Spied turned on the radio and pulled out onto the road.
Alex: That, was the best night ever
They had danced for hours, the food was delicious, the music was great, Shay had bought her on stage and danced with her while Spied ordered them dessert, Tyler and Gabi glared at them the entire time, and Spied had kept her laughing.
Alex: Who would have thought I'd end up being such good friends with my sisters best friend?
Spied: Not me
Alex: Thanks though. I think tonight really got to him
Spied: Oh it did, believe me
Alex: What'd he say when he dragged you to that corner?
Spied: He yelled at me for being there with you
Alex: Jealous yelling?
Spied: Oh yeah
Alex: YES!
Spied: Happy much?
Alex: Of course, your plans working
Speid: (laughing) Happy to help
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When they got to Sams house Alex said good night, kissed his cheek, then grabbed her bag and slipped out of the car. She snuck into the backyard of the Andrews house and changed into a tank top and shorts in the shadows, put her dress in the garment bag Sadie had given her, hung it on a tree branch, pushed the bag onto said tree branch, then climbed into the tree. When she reached Sam's bedroom window Sam slid it open and helped her friend climb through. Once through they fell to the floor laughing, and telling the other to shut up so they didn't wake up Jamie or Nana.
After getting her stuff through the window and Alex telling Sam every detail of the night, they finally got to sleep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After school the next day Alex, Sam, Jude, and SME were hanging out in the senior parking lot waiting for Tyler. Jude and SME talked about asking Darius for another tour, and Alex asked if Darius had mentioned her demo. Jude said she had seem him listen to it the day before, but before Alex could press it any farther, Tyler walked up. Spied, smirking at his brother, pulled Alex closer and she leaned up to kiss him softly. Wally snorted back a laugh, Kyle ducked his head to hide his, Jude covered her mouth with her hand, and Sam(who was sitting on the hood of the car) bent her head and rested it on top of her knees.
Tyler: Um, hey guys
Wally and Kyle: Hey dude
Jude: Hi Tyler
Sam: Hey Tyler
Spied: What up little bro?
Tyler: Um, can I talk to Alex in private?
Alex: Can you give me a ride home afterwards?
Tyler: Sure?
Sam: Jude, can I hang at your house till she gets home?
Jude: Duh
Alex: Then fine
Spied tightened his grip on her and pulled her into a hug.
Spied: See you tomorrow
Alex: (with a pouty face) You aren't gonna call me tonight?
Spied: (trying not to laugh) Of course I am
Alex: Then see you tomorrow
She kissed his cheek then waved good bye to everyone before following Tyler back across the parking lot, towards the school, while they headed the other way in Spieds car, towards the exit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When they reached a bench on the path to the soccer field they sat down and Alex sighed.
Alex: What'd you want to talk to me about?
Tyler: So, seemed like you and Spied had fun last night
Alex: Um, yeah
Not a lie. We were two friends hanging out and we did have fun
Tyler: Right (sighs) You seem to make him happy
Alex: Uh, thanks? Seemed like you and Gabi had fun
Tyler: I guess. But I think I'm gonna break up with her
Alex: … why?
Tyler: I think I found someone else I like more
He looked over at her and stared into her eyes, Alex tore her gaze away.
Alex: That's, nice
Tyler: But she's making it hard
Alex: She's dating your brother
Tyler: She doesn't have to be
Alex: What?!
Tyler: I can tell she's not serious about him. She should just dump him
Alex: Tyler!
Tyler: What?
Alex: Your being a jerk!
Tyler: By asking out the girl I like?!
Alex: By telling her to break up with her boyfriend! Your brother!
Tyler: I just-
Alex: Don't! … I think I'll call Sadie for a ride
She jumped off the bench and ran around the school, dialing Sadie's number.
Tyler: (sighs) Damn, that didn't work like I thought it would
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
