Gothinblack: For those who may be wondering if Yogi is still going to come in the story then yes he will. I'm just trying to get a perfect point to add him in once this Alex and Gareki thing is over.

This book IS slow paced and I think it's going to be a lot of chapters but it's an exciting book so thanks for those who stick with it till the very end. I greatly appreciate it.

I heaved over once more my stomache feeling like it was all going to come out of my mouth as I threw up in the toilet. Crouching down on my knees bent over. I breathed in and out slowly afraid if I took to much of a big breath then I would heave over again.

I weakly grabbed at the sink counter pulling myself back up finally done with my regurgitation- for now at least, it had been going on for hours, in my disbelief. How much exactly had I drunk last night?

I didn't know nor did I want to think about it, the thought made my stomach twist. Lifting myself from the floor, wobbling on my feet I slowly made my way in the view of the mirror having to support myself against the sink , trying not to fall like I had done like the first time.

My head ached. I was still dealing with the hang over and I didn't like it, one bit. Reaching a hand for ward I turned on the sink, washing my hands and splattering cold water on my face to wake myself up or to at least try and make my hot face feel better.

I turned the faucet off and rested my hands on either side of the sink looking up at my nauseated features. I looked and felt impaired. But this was not compared to what I looked like yesterday before all of this had happened. I looked like...someone else as scary as it sounded, it was true.

I looked away from the mirror and picked up a towel on the floor.

I had long since decided to skip school today mainly because of the situation with Alex and because I wasn't feeling all that great at the moment.

I cleaned up and went back to my bed room and dropped myself down on the bed carelessly face first.

My eyes were heavy for sleep but I couldn't close them, not yet at least. "I had way to much on my mind. Was what Alex said true?" That Stormy forced herself onto him."

I had been to shocked and heartbroken to think about the explanation he had told me. All in all he said them with truth in his eyes and face as if he wasn't lying but my mind was mixed up and I still had the unwanted memory of the two of them kissing last night which made it hard for me to believe him.

For once I actually thought the alcohol had taken a toll on me and made me see something different then what I let on, just like Alex had said but I know what I saw and it didn't look like he made a move to stop her from kissing him. "Or at least...that's what I thought."

Maybe he had tried to push her away but my mind had stayed frozen from the alcohol which made me picture them both kissing longer then what it actually led on to be.

I shook my head and covered my eyes with my hand after closing both of my eyelids. Even if what he said was true he still wasn't fond of me anymore. Hell, I had sex with a guy I just met last night without any memory of it, there were only slight flash backs to the scenes of him touching and kissing me as I laid down on some hard surface. Plus the message he sent me had enough proof that we had done what I suspected, but how was I to be sure?"

I mean, I had been drunk but there were other sexual things he and I could have done that didn't involve him going inside...me. I paused my thoughts for a second. My face grew hot at the thought I had just had. I shook my head getting the unwanted image out of my brain before it got stuck.

We couldn't of had sex, my ass didn't hurt or feel like anything... Like nothing happened. But I did feel a little odd as if I could still feel the lingering touches from Lock. I sighed and turned over on my side staring at the wall where the guitar that Alex had given me sat propped against the wall.

I blinked a couple times at it, my mind becoming blank. I pursed my lips together bitterly and turned away from the instrument I was now facing the other wall, finding it to hard to stare at something he had given me because he had cared. I knew he wouldn't have that same feeling for me anymore.

He helped me, he was different from the rest and yet he never gave up on me so was it right for me to give up on him? Despite the kiss that had hurt me more then my father beating me. I thought Alex was the only person that could ever understand but was I wrong?

He was genuinely hurt by what I said and all we ever did was fight at times but he was there for me.

I closed my eyes. What ever. I said weakly sounding distasteful with a sad tone in my voice. I said what I said... and so did he. We're threw and we've parted ways. even I knew that something like this wouldn't last. I should have never let him into my world and from this day for ward I won't let him in again. No matter...how much it hurts.

But deep down I knew I'd break this rule some day...

My mom looked up with Jared sitting at the table for breakfast.

She smiled slightly, being in her work suit possible about to hitch another ride with her new boyfriend. Feeling better? She asked me concerned and chipper all at once.

When I came home last week she noticed my pale face and once I had thrown up in the nearest bathroom she knew I was sick or had eaten something not right. Of course I lied and said all that, No way would I tell her I had been drinking all night with a bunch of people I didn't know and she never noticed or knew about what I had done.

Within those four days I skipped school for the entire week preparing myself to get over my sulking mood of what I had seen my ex boyfriend do and get over my drunken sickness. And now next week which was now had started up. "Today being a Monday was distasteful for me but how else was I going to get threw the rest of the week?" I couldn't skip any more days. But was I prepared to step foot back in school. I didn't know.

I nodded answering her question, not feeling like talking at the moment. I looked towards Jared. I had forgotten all about him since everything in my life had taken over my thoughts.

I walked to the door ignoring Jared like I had done to him for days now ever since him being here. I still hadn't introduced myself to him and he didn't either. My guess would be he was keeping his distance from me knowing what I had been threw three weeks ago with my dad.

Opening the door I stepped out into another rainy day. It had been doing this for a couple days now, I didn't mind much but it gave the atmosphere a melancholy feel. I pulled up my hood and stuffed my hands into my pockets.

Prepared to take the bus, I made my way down the driveway with my head down looking at the pavement until I heard a honk.

I looked up to see Nai in the street with his black car. I blinked in surprise other than that my face stayed blank.

What are yo-

Come on! He yelled out his window waving me over.

My shoulders sunk and I walked over to his car getting into the passenger seat after setting my guitar case down in the back seat where I unexpectedly saw D.C sitting.

She waved at me after a few seconds of staring.

Hey. I said flatly before closing the door.

I leaned my chin on my hand before looking at Nai. What are you doing here? And how did you know where I lived.

Your mom told me. He said with a smile before driving forward.

I blinked at him my face staying deadpanned." When" I ordered.

In the hospital that time. We got to talking...and stuff. He shrugged. By the way I'm going to be picking you up from now on.

My eyebrows creased together. Um, okay. I shook my head slightly before looking ahead." Why though?"

Lets just say we've heard about your little dispute between Alex last week. The whole schools talking about it by the way. Answered D.C as if nothing wrong had happened.

You really slapped him good too. She added.

I made note that it was bot Nai and her fault that me and Alex were broken up. Nai for bringing us to the party in the first place and D.C for having so much alcohol for me to unknowingly drink. But I didn't say anything about it, figuring I should just let it go.

I sighed. Great so the school knows.

So~ are you guys okay? Nai asked.

...We've broken up. I said plainly continuing to stare strait ahead.

Both of them looked at me surprised.

"You what?" D.C questioned in disbelief.

We're not together any more. I sighed having to repeat myself. I didn't want to go threw the fact yet again that me and Alex no longer were together, I didn't want to relieve the hurt from it all.

Shit, that's all bad. Nai said apologetically turning a corner leading us closer to school. I knew you guys were fighting and all that so I took the nerve to drive you to school from now on. Oh yeah and telling by the way Alex has been holding up in school he seems pretty bothered whenever me or D.C mention you. it's weird. He wants to stay away from you.

I shrugged. I couldn't let this get to me, we parted ways for a reason.

Where were you last weak? D.C asked. Deciding to change the subject.

I hesitated to answer but I got the words threw my lips some how. Getting over it all, what had happened that is. I said pained.

D.C sat back in her seat and stared out the window not wanting to ask further about it. Sorry.

I moved a hand threw my hair not saying any words of reinsurance. What all are they saying about me and Alex at school.

Nai pulled into the student parking lot and parked his car before turning off the engine. They're saying a lot. That you had sex with some random dude in a bathroom at the party, that you acted wild that night and that you were the main reason why every one was so pumped on the dance floor. That you lit a fire right inside the house, that you kissed Alex right in the middle of the dance floor. It's a lot more said then just that, but some of it is ridiculous and not even true.

I believed the part that me and Alex had kissed in front od=f all those people that had been one of my flashing memories form that night. I still couldn't remember every last bit yet but I didn't know if I wanted to or not.

And as for you and Alex, well people are saying that the two of you got in a fist fight and recked D.C's house. Others are saying that you guys were definitely gay for each other so if you two were keeping it a secret then everyone knows now. Nai added on.

Shit. I muttered to myself. I hadn't wanted everyone in the school to know about that, reasons being because of all the attention I was going to get just for liking the same sex. Things had taken a completely different turn, now people were hearing rumors about me which made the whole gay thing seem nothing compared to the other shit louds of crap they were lying about me to everyone.

Nai continued to speak all the rumors that had been said about me since I had been gone all last week.

I wanted to crawl in an abyss and die. For Christ sake! People just wouldn't shut up. The rumors were more then I could handle but what other choice did I have?

Nai finally stopped his marathon of rumors and sat back in his seat taking in a breath.

I swallowed hard and clenched at my seat belt before roughly taking it off and slammed my hand onto the door handle to get out of the car.

But Nai stopped me or tried to but I opened the door grabbing my things before bursting out and briskly walking.

"Wait! there's one more thing!"

My hood was over my head as the rain continued to poor down. Students running to the entrance door after being dropped off by there buses.

I wasn't paying attention to many over whelming thoughts crossing my mind. Before I bumped into some one hard. knocking me to the soaking ground.

I sat up annoyed about to yell at the person. I looked up and saw a familiar boy with black hair sticking out at the ends with medium long strands hanging in his eyes but my view could see them. They were a turquoise. He had the same attractive features that I knew to well from that night.

An urge of anger went threw me as I stood up and stared Lock in the face. Why was he here?

He stared down at me being an inch taller then myself. Oh, hey Gareki. He said slowly as if we were friends.

The hell are you doing here. Don't tell me that you go here now? I glared a deathly look at him. He had caused so much to happen between me and Alex.

I do go here, I'm not new. He stated as if it was obvious.

That only made me glare at him harder. What are you?

He raised a black eyebrow. Senior. You?

Junior. I said plainly.

Hmm~. He hummed while crossing his arms in a cocky sort of way. You must be younger then me then, at the party I didn't really get your age. How old are you. He asked me slowly mocking me with a squint of his eyes.

Cut the crap! You don't need to know my age. I need to ask you something.

What ever. he shrugged looking up at the sky. But we're not talking out here. Follow me. he grabbed my wrist and started walking quickly.

The hell? I said annoyed as we both stepped into the building. I felt eyes all on me as we- or should I saw he dragged me to hall A-1 where his locker supposedly was.

Finally he let me go. I pulled my hood on tighter trying to conceal myself form the public eye as I heard the rumors come to life from those who had seen me.

I was in a living hell. I turned back to Lock as he did the combo to his locker.

Can't you do that any faster! I said annoyed and angry all at once.

Chill, what the heck's your problem. He said with a roll of his eyes. Shouldn't you be telling me what you wanted to ask of me?

It was my turn to roll my eyes. Not here! I hissed in a whisper- shout.

He sighed. Okay fine, just let me open my locker first. It would do you some good to stop being so angry ya know.

I crossed my arms and leaned against the lockers beside his and waited for what seemed like forever he finally opened his locker and grabbed the books that were needed.

After he closed his locker, I told him to follow me.

He questioned why but I just told him to hurry up ignoring his question.

Coming to the hallway that was needed I scanned it for anyone lurking and to my luck no one was but still I could still be careful.

"Come on."I said walking to a brown door with him following behind casually with his hands in his pockets as the book rested between his ribs and arm.

What is this about? He rose an eyebrow at me again as I opened the janitors closet and stepped inside my heart beating afraid some one might see us.

I was met by the same sour smell of cleaning supplies giving me deja vu' of the time Alex pulled me into a janitors closet.

Just come on. I held the door open.

"Hm. Oh I get it, you want to have sex with me don't you?"

I had to slap him. I just... had to.

Idiot! I grabbed his wrist and pulled him in shutting the door behind him. I sighed at the darkness surrounding us and pulled out my phone and turned on it's flash light. Darting the brightness in his face in which he turned away from me with a slight groan.

I could see the red hand markings from the hard slap I had just given him on the side of his cheek as he turned away.

Way to bright-

To bad! I interrupted. Now tell me something...

He turned back to me expectedly. "What?"

I need to know, did we have sex at the party last week. I asked in all seriousness.

"Of course we didn't." Why, did you hear it from all these rumors saying we did? He said in disbelief.

I frowned I guess he had heard the rumors to, it didn't surprise me but what di was what he had just said." What?!"

?We didn't do anything. "Maybe just kissed and touched a little but that was it. "Did you think I'd take advantage of you just because you were drunk?"

No! I said offended. I was drunk and I thought we had had sex, and that's what Alex thinks what we did.

"Wait, a minute...whose Alex? He cocked his head."

I sighed and shook my head." An ex boyfriend of mine. "But I still don't get it, what the hell was up with that text you sent me?"

He shrugged. I guarantee to you all we did was kiss and I touched you on your chest and you touched me on mine we didn't have sex. That text was nothing it was just an invite for us to be friends with benefits and me bragging on how good you felt last night.

I gaped at him not believing what I was hearing." Are you kidding?"

"I'm dead serious." He said honestly.

I sighed turning my eyes away from his only to turn them back after another question crossed my mind.

"Did you make me cum?" I said hesitantly noting the words he had said in the text about making me feel good.

"No, like I said, I only touched you on your chest and kissed you. You only moaned because you were under the influence of alcohol."

I ran a hand threw my hair in amazement. We hadn't had sex. So me and Alex had been wrong but then again there was the problem with Stormy. I still didn't want to face him after what I saw. So this was a fleeting spark of hope for us to get back together as if nothing happened.

"I made up my mind. We parted ways for a reason."

I looked towards Lock and asked with out thinking." You want to know how we broke up?"

He remained silent for a few seconds before nodding.

"It's a new girl named Stormy- she kissed him at the party or at least that's what Alex told me."

I looked up at him to see his reaction. I didn't know why I had expected him to have one but I just did.

He smirked which was odd. "Looks like my sister has your ex wrapped around her finger."

My eyes widened." What?"

But that was when the janitor door burst open with a bunch of teenagers on the other side with there phones raised up high.

And without warning flashes sparked in me and Locks surprised faces as the crowd took lasting photos of us. This wasn't going to end well.
