Chapter 4: Moments Worth A Million Words :)
When I woke up the next morning I had three missed texts from Alex. Two from last night and one this morning. The two from last night said "Hey beautiful" and the second one said "I hope you enjoyed the show and I hope to see you soon. Goodnight, sweet dreams." The one for today said: "Wanna hang out?" I quickly replied with a yes "When&Where" Followed by a reply. We were going to hang out at his house, and Matt was going to be there. We were to be there in twenty minutes so I told Amy it was time to get up and get ready. I threw on my All Time Low shirt that I had purchased at their acoustic set, and my new ripped skinnies. I also put on my black low tops, and threw my hair into a bun. I did my make up after letting Amy help here and there, and then we left. We were there within minutes and may I say Alex looked amazing. He had on his Nike shoes, and his black skinny jeans with a white V-neck, and his beanie. Matt stood there, being himself. I walked up to Alex and he pulled me into him with an unexpected hug. I wrapped my arms around him and whispered what came to mind, "You smell good." I whispered. He giggled, and we went inside and watched the movie the "Fifth Element" I sat on the love seat with Alex where he had his jacket draped over me because I was cold.
And Matt and Amy had a chair where they were making out at. Alex asked me then wanna go somewhere more private? I replied with a yes and he led me upstairs to his room. His room had some posters of Jimmy Eat World and Blink-182 And posters oh his band of course. His comforter was a light blue, and so where his sheets. His wardrobe consists of a lot of v-necks and skinnies, I thought. And I love it. I went over and sat on his bed while he got us drinks. When I requested a drink I thought he was getting like water, but he walked up with champagne. I drank 2 glasses, as he did, making me feel fresh. Wow, I thought. I didn't know this was the affect of champagne! we talked and then I felt completely weightless. Then I asked if I could do something I wanted to ever since he got us drinks. He replied with a sure and a cocky grin, and I was surprised at what I did next. I jumped up, threw my arms out, and sang "You've got me poppin' champagne!" Wow, he said. I was smiling stupidly and he said you really are a good singer. Even when you're half way to being drunk, he laughed. I walked over to him at that moment, and I kissed him. Never had I frenched, but I knew at this moment I was going to. He kissed me back with the same enthusiasm I had been longing for.
I wanted Alex so bad, and it hurt. I slowly pushed him toward the bed and he went along willingly. We laid down and made out for several minutes. I let my hair out to try and be sexy and it must have worked because Alex slowly made his way on top of me and started kissing my neck. I slowly unbuttoned his shirt, and then he stopped. "We don't have to if you don't want to." he said out of breath barely above a whisper. "I want to..." I replied, and we resumed. I breathed hard, and I knew I was in this. It was already 9 O' Clock when Amy came up and knocked on the door. "Can we just crash here?" Amy asked. "Yes," I replied. She left after saying to text her if she needed anything. When I woke up the next morning I was no longer a virgin. Wow. Was all I could think. I loved this new me. I felt 'weightless' using All Time Low terminology. I was still in Alex's embrace. He must have felt me stir because he removed the strand of hair from my face and said, "Morning beautiful." I replied with a kiss on the cheek and a "Good morning Gaskarth. I said winking my left eye. He must of liked it because he kissed me softly on the lips. I looked into his soft and understanding eyes and I never wanted to let go of him. "You look amazing" I said. "You don't look too bad yourself," he replied. Then I looked at the time. IT was 9:38, and All Time Low had an acoustic set in an hour. I think we should get dressed so you won't be late." I said slowly getting up.
"What do you mean I?" He asked. "Well I only had enough money to get tickets for yesterday." I explained. "I guess you'll be going in this time All Time Low style. Did I forget to mention you're singing Damned If I Do Ya with me today?" Alex asked. "Uhm you sorta forgot, but I'll live I know every word to every song and well now I'm rambling aren't I? I tend to ramble when I get nervous." I explained. "Then don't be nervous. you have me. We'll do this right, okay?" HE asked. He threw me a pair of his skinnies so I didn't have to wear my dirty pair. Then he threw me one of his V-necks and an All Time Low Hoodie. My typical wear, I thought. Other than the skinnies. Especially the skinnies being Alex's. We got to the show and it was amazing. I sang my heart out in damned if I do ya and Alex could tell. I did something unexpected then. I picked up his guitar and said, I'm going to play a song, will you sing it if I play?" I asked. He smiled and replied with a "Sure." I started playing "Remembering Sunday" and he sang. I sand Juliet's part, and then he asked where did you learn to play like that?" He asked genuinely curious. I watched a lot of your acoustic video's on YouTube and watched where your fingers were. I absolutely was in love with this song and still am." I replied.
"Wow," he said and he giggled. Jack came over for the acoustic set and all the screaming girls were looking at us all. "Well, Beth," Jack asked. "Want to sing an All Time Low song by yourself?"Jack asked. "Alex, should I?" I asked. "It was my idea..." HE replied and blushed. Could we do let it roll?" I asked. "Sure" they replied in unison and I sung my heart out during the chorus. I got a huge round of applause and whispered to Alex. "never make me do that again. And by the way, I thought about you the whole time singing, and I can't get your scent away, I can't stop feeling the burning sensation of your lips. All I want to do is be wrapped around you." He replied, "Same, but you're musically inclined. I can't help that I like that in you." I giggled. My dream was coming true. After the acoustic set we went to his house and I helped him pack to get ready on tour. We went out to the tour bus and packed everything and it was ready to go. They get three days at home and now it was a day before they had to leave. I wanted to cry in his arms, because it seemed like him leaving would tear me to pieces.
But I wouldn't show him that. After packing we sat down on the couch and talked for hours. I told him about how my parents didn't know I was here and how I used to be. But I didn't include the fact that I was always good. But ya never know, maybe he sensed that in me.
