Okay So I really wasn't planning on continuing this, but people asked me to, so I figured why not. (that's also why it's so short)
Sorry for all the confusing "he"s and "his"s. Pronouns are the bane of my existence.
Actually must of English spelling and grammar is, so I apologize for that too.
Last quick thing I am going to do a sequel to the one about skinny jeans. Wasn't planning on that either, much like this one it was written as a one-shot, but enough people *cough* demanded *cough* requested a sequel to that as well so it will happen some day, just not today.
When Alex awoke the bed next to him was empty and barely warm. He threw back the covers and opened to door to his bedroom. The door to the bathroom was cracked open and through it came the sound of running shower. Alex held the door with one hand and knocked loudly with the other.
"Hey, Charlie, you okay?" he half shouted over the noise. The dull thunk of something hitting the floor was the only response. He pushed open the door and ran to the shower.
In the corner sat Charlie, still wearing his jeans. He looked up at Alex and shrugged.
"I got hot so I went to take a cool shower, but I was tired so I sat down. Then when I tried to get back up to turn off the water I slipped and fell"
Alex couldn't help but help but laugh in both relief and at the silliness of the situation. He extended his arm to the sitting boy. Charlie's arm rasped his, and he helped to pull him up. He slipped on the wet floor and set his head on Alex's chest to balance.
Alex's heart picked up, and he was sure Charlie noticed. Sure enough he could hear the smile in Charlie's voice as he said "Though overall I feel a lot better. Just tired really." Alex pulled Charlie's head off his chest and placed a hand on his forehead.
"I think your fever broke". Charlie grinned.
"Oh good. Now I won't get you sick." Alex barely had time to raise an eyebrow before Charlie pressed his lips to Alex's . Just before Alex could lean in he pulled back just as quickly.
"I just wanted to say thanks for helping me
So that's that, and frankly I know it's kinda crap
