Hiya, So here is the next chapter of Fighting For Alex. I think this is one of my longest stories and its the most fun to write because basically i am like imagining it happen to my friends. And i have so many idea's for stories and i'm thinking of making one that is all Nate's point of view. Personal Message me if you want to know who and what inspired it. Its a really good story. But i am feeling a little better and its not pnemonia. Thank you Jesus Christ my Lord And Savior. I didn't want it to be pnemonia because yeah that would be so horrible. I DON'T OWN ANYTHING.

Chapter 8:
Nate
So Oliver invited me to sit with him and all the other basketball players. I knew Shane and Alex would be there so I agreed. He said that Alex had to say if I could or not since she was the head cheerleader and all this other crap. So I was waiting for Oliver to come back. He went over to talk to Alex who just so happened to be sitting with Shane who was eating the ham sandwich that I was planning on stealing from the fridge last night. I just realized that Alex talks a lot. She has been talking to him non stop for the last like five minutes then she turned to Shane. I'm guessing its not really up to Alex or Oliver would have already came back. Shane is now talking to him and I'm guessing he said I could because Alex is in shock.

"ARE YOU HIGH OR SOMETHING!(a/n: I love that line from the last chapter.)" I heard Alex yell before I started cracking up. Ha, he really did say yes. Is he high? Because I know for a fact that he hates me. I thought. Oh well. More time for me to flirt with Alex.

"Okay, so Shane said you can sit with us but you have to stay away from Alex. She doesn't want you there and will probably claw your eyes out if you try anything." Oliver said to me as we got in line to get our lunches.

"Okay, I won't try anything. So why did she yell. 'Are you high or something?'" I asked just trying to get the back story so I can make fun of her when she tutors me tomorrow.(a/n: Bet you forgot about her tutoring him. Cause I did)

"Good. And she was just surprised that he actually said yes. You know your cousin hates you right?" Oliver asked as he picked up a piece of pizza that looked moldy and then put it back down . "You know if you actually eat this crap you will get food poisoning."

"Yeah, the orange salad kinda gave that all away." I said getting ready to throw up at the sight of the sandwiches moving around. "Next time I'm brown bagging it."

"Yeah that's a good idea. Or just call your aunt and tell her to bring you something. People do that all the time because yeah that food never gets better just worse. Its like they have been using the same stuff since like 1980." Oliver said grabbing a bottle of sprite.

"Yeah, or maybe 1930. Oh, stay away from that pudding. It has eyes." I said moving as far away as possible while in a line.

"Yeah, lets go before some of this food eats us." Oliver said as me a fast walk for it. I'm pretty sure that I heard the tuna salad growl at me.

"Has the food always been this nasty?" I asked not used to inedible food at school. My old school got fast food delivered to the school so it was edible and we didn't die from it. Or got ate by it.

"Yeah pretty much, I think some freshman got bit by it about a month ago. It was bad. And very nasty. Who has ever heard of food eating you. Only at this school would you see that." Oliver said as he went over to Lilly and sat down next to her. I sat across from him beside Troy and Chad Dylan Cooper. Is it just me or does that guy have a very long name.

I didn't really want to sit by them. I mean they are cool and all but I would really rather sit with like Alex, Shane, and whoever those girls that they are always with whose names I don't really know. Personally I think that they are so wrong for each other. But yeah, she doesn't care what I think.

Alex:
Lunch was very quiet after my little outburst. Me and Shane talked about it and he wasn't worried anymore but I knew that all I had said was a lie. Nate had the power to do anything he wanted to. Pretty soon Shane would lose a lot of things that he would have never lost if Nate would have never came to live with him. But I won't be one of those things because I'm a person not a thing.

"So Shane, do you think you can take me to my voice lesson, my brother Justin has to drive Max to the sub shop so I don't really have a ride and Pastor Vanmassdam gets mad when you don't show up." I said while I was leaning my head on his shoulder trying to look cute so that he would do this one thing for me.

"Sure, do you have a pair of jeans and a t-shirt with you so that you can just stop by my house and change and then we could hang out together the rest of the day?" Shane asked looking at her.

"Yeah, I always do because I never know if Justin is going to take me or not. He isn't very reliable, okay he is but not when it comes to things that I need done." I said lifting my head and looked around the cafeteria. "When does the bell ring, cause this lunch is very boring."

"Soon hopefully. This has been the most boring in the history of lunches." Shane said while laying his head down on the table.

I looked at the clock in the cafeteria and it said we still had a good twenty minutes. "Oh. My. God. We still have twenty minutes left in lunch." I said not really that happy with having to sit in their for a billion more minutes.

"That sucks, I'm going to go take a nap now. I'll be right here." Shane said putting his backpack on the table as a pillow. "That god I don't have any books in here or this would really hurt my head."

I rolled my eyes at him. "Wow, Shane, wow. You would rather sleep that talk to me and everyone else."

"Yeah, I will be putting my hoodie on and putting my ear phones in. So wake me up with the bell rings cause you know that I won't hear it." Shane said while starting to do every thing he said he was.

"Yes I know Shane, you are going to put your ear phones in because you know that you won't wake up in time and that you have an excuse for one of us to wake you up.

"Exactly. Night babe." Shane said before putting his hood up and started blaring his ipod in his ears.

"One day he is going to go deaf." Hannah told me and we all laughed. It was true.

"I know. I tell him not to but he still does anyways." I said and then I saw something very suspicious. I saw Tess look at the rest of the table to make sure they weren't listening to us.

"Okay, since no one is listening and since Shane is out cold and listening to the gayest music in the world. What do you think of Nate? Do you like him? Do you think he is cute? We haven't gotten to talk about this yet." Tess said shocking me with all of these questions I mean really I'm dating Nate's cousin and I'm happy with him.

"I think Nate is a jerk and that he should lay off cause this is Shane's school. I don't like him. And yeah he is kinda cute but not nearly as cute as Shane." I said lying on the whole I don't like him part and they could tell. I mean really they have only been my best friends since like the first grade and all.

".GOD! YOU SO LIKE HIM!" Hannah squeeled out loud so that the whole table heard her and they all looked at me and then both Nate and Shane.

"WELL DUH I LIKE SHANE! I MEAN WE ARE ONLY DATING AND STUFF WHY WOULDN'T I LIKE MY OWN BOYFRIEND." I said, then people went back to their own conversations. "Hannah if you ever yell stuff like that anymore I will so cut off all your hair when you are sleeping. And not let you buy a wig to cover your head."

She looked at me in horror and grasped her hair, "Got, it just please do not cut off all my hair I love my hair."

"I won't just please stop saying stuff out loud especially if it is about Nate." I said and then I heard a very familiar, cocky voice say, "What about Nate?"

Please Review and leave me any ideas about if you want something to happen in the story. Please tell me if this part was a little bit boring because i'm planning on alot to happen in the next few chapters.
