So, Alex just got a new ride. Figured it'd be something loud and powerful. Tsk, tsk, probably just let him do with the Ducati. But at least you guys are enjoying this, right? (Please be enjoying this)
Chapter Seven – The Hell...?
On any other day, Alex would've picked a great day to bust out his new ride. But then disaster struck.
"Hey, Lexi, ever get the feeling you're being watched." That said disaster came in the annoying voice of Elise Abigail McMillan.
He growled in annoyance, but suppose he should look on the bright side. There is no bright side to this.
Alex picked up his radio and hollered back at her. "Yeah, and now I can expect that. Seeing as you know where I live now." He heard the collective laughter of her and her friends and made him groan.
As they rode to God knows where Elise is taking them, Elise and the others took it upon themselves to start a talking session that made Alex want to rip his head off.
'Yeah, that could work.' He would do it too unless they stopped their ass mouths from flapping.
"You know, Jack, you're never gonna win that girl over." The voice of Sabrina said over the radio that made Alex slightly interested.
"Oh, I gotta hear this." He chuckled to himself and raised the volume as they roared through the English Countryside.
"Shut up, Brina." Jack snarled and she giggled.
"Like you got a chance. She's married and you're still after her." That was when Alex decided to butt in.
"Hold up, you're after some cougar?" He asked, with disbelief and mischief in his voice.
The way he said it made everyone burst out in laughter.
"WHAT THE HELL, MAN?!" Jack fumed and that made Alex laugh too.
"Hey, everyone has their tastes, kid. You, however, seem to like the vintage stuff." Alex said, barely trying to comprehend it all.
Jack was after some damn cougar. And he was sure Elise and the others were just loving this.
"It's not like that. Alex." The way he said it was dripping with venom and sarcasm.
"Oh, care to clarify?" Elise giggled. She knew bringing Alex along was a good idea. Just look at Jack. The more time she spends with Alex, the more she admires him.
"Yes she's married." Alex tried another comment but Jack beat him to it. "And before you ask, you ding nut, she's not a cougar. She's twenty-three."
Alex chuckled. "And how old are you, then?"
"Twenty-five." Jack said and Alex shrugged.
"Maybe, just maybe, you still have some hope." Everyone chuckled and let Jack continue his story as they passed the oceans.
"She was forced into that marriage by her overly conceited parents. And while she was in a relationship with me." Jack murmured.
Everyone stayed quiet. Even Alex. That must be tough on Jack.
"I tried to convince her to go with me but she was stubborn. And that's why I love her still." He chuckled sadly as their vehicles stopped.
"I hope I can get her back. Her husband's shit ass treatment of her is enough for me to go ballistic." Jack growled
"Yeah, don't worry buddy. We'll help ya'" Alex said wrapping his arms around Jack's shoulders.
"You will?" Jack asked them and they nodded.
"For sure, man. We hate to see you even more pathetic." Gary chuckled and Jack glared at him.
"One day, I'll shove my foot up your ass, Gary." Jack snarled and Elise came between them.
"Alright, break it up you two." She said, prying the two apart and looked at Alex "And how do you suppose to help him?"
"I survived a military occupation and the outbreak, I can totally help you wimps." Alex noogied Elise and ran off.
Elise didn't appreciate that Alex ruined her hair and ran after him. "Alex, when I get my hands on your ass, I'll-"
"Please, Elise. We've only known each other for a few months and now you want me in bed. Slow down, girl."
Alex and Elise chased each other for a good half hour while the others got the gear out.
"Man, those two are nuts." Rebecca said as Elise jumped on Alex but he got away again.
"No arguments here, they're perfect for each other." Sabrina chuckled and the rest agreed. Alex was just as nuts as Elise was.
It didn't take long but Alex came back with Elise thrashing on his shoulders. "Woo, damn girl. You sure like it rough."
"Only if you like it too." Elise growled and Alex set her down. She did at least caused a scratch on his cheek.
"Well, looks like you two lovebirds are done, let's go." Rebecca chuckled which earned a grave look from both Alex and Elise.
"The hell you say?" They growled menacingly with their arms crossed and Rebecca gulped. Elise was bad enough, now they had to worry about Alex too.
"Nothing, nothing, let's just go." Paul sighed and grabbed his gear.
Alex and Elise huffed before she nudged him to her car. "Okay, I give up. What are you up to?" Alex asked as she grabbed her gear,
"What? I thought you like dangerous stuff?" She handed him two wing suits and a couple of parachutes. "Besides, this is only part one." She giggled and grabbed one of the wing suits.
"Now turn around and don't peep." Alex raised an eyebrow and smirked. Elise glared at him and grabbed his shoulders and turned him around herself. "That's better." She chirped.
Alex still had that smirk on while he listened to the distinctive fall of clothing and was half-tempted to look. But hey who can blame the virus? The woman behind him was smokin' hot!
'You hound dog.' Alex heard his sister's voice and rolled his eyes.
'Shut up, Dana.'
"Okay, now turn around." He heard her say and could've sworn there was mischief in that devious voice of hers.
When he turned around, all he could think was, 'Damn.' Well, she does have one sick-ass ass. Not that big like those skanks in them videos but one of those schoolgirl types.
Wait, what?
Elise had her hair in a ponytail and her hands on her hips with a very sexy pose. For a crazy bitch. A very sexy bitch.
Alex smirked and raised an eyebrow. "Who you tryin' to impress?"
Elise stuck her tongue out and went up to him. "Fuck. You." She said in a sweet voice that Alex knew meant 'go to hell and get fucked by everything until you get ripped in two'.
She handed him his wing suit and turned around. Bitch.
Now, she was just playing with him. He didn't need no damn wing suit. Hell, he glided through NYZ and fell out of a helicopter. The fuck how many times was that.
Being near indestructible does that to a guy...virus...thing.
Giving out a huff he removed his clothes, Alex couldn't risk blowing his cover now, and put on the damn wing suit. Why does he need this, anyway?
He glided all the roof tops of Manhattan, crashed choppers to scrap metal, get blasted by a tank round. At point blank range. At the FACE!
He turned around to Elise and crossed his arms. "Hey short stuff, you can turn around now."
Elise did and was amazed that Alex and the wing suit fit so sexy together. His was messily slicked but his sunglasses were off revealing his electric blue eyes.
She didn't realize her mouth was hanging open until Alex closed it for her. "Might catch flies, now com one and let's go." He started walking off in the direction of the others and Elise chased after him.
When they reached their friends, there was a helicopter waiting for them.
"Hey, there you two are. Whatdya do, fuck in the bushes?" Paul snickered, and Alex and Elise went towards him.
"Paul, is it?" Alex draped his arms around Paul.
"Yeah, that's me." He said merrily while Alex just smirked.
"Wanna jump outta that thing without a chute?" Elise asked sweetly while pursing her lips. Paul chuckled nervously and looked over at Alex who had a sinister grin on.
"No, that's too sudden. Why don't we just tie him to the tree and let the wolves eat him." Alex snickered and Paul began to sweat.
Elise nodded. "Not a bad idea, but I was thinking something more...memorable."
Alex smirked inwardly, her sadistic side was something he liked about her. "Oh, do tell."
She held a very shaking Paul tighter so there was no escape while the others were beginning to think that the two were very much alike.
Raving assholes with mental disorders.
"We strip him naked, tie him to a boulder ass side up, cut out his tongue, and then." She leaned closer to Alex who was actually putting it into detail already. "We get the biggest baddest horniest bear around here and see if they make babies."
Everyone was a little disgusted by that. Paul was near to fainting when he heard that. Alex, who was known to be a little over the top sometimes, was grinning like evil.
'Now, where to find a nice bear.'
Then Elise turned to Paul. "But we're not doin' that."
'We're not?'
"We just messin' with ya'!" Elise laughed while the others laughed, nervously but laughed anyway. Best to keep her and the other mental health patient calm.
Elise, Rebecca, Sabrina, Lynn, Jack, Gary, Paul, and Alex boarded the helicopter to...
"So, we're going up to 20,000 feet!" Alex shrugged inwardly. He's fallen from higher. "Then the party begins!"
"Yeah, what's the party again cuz' you lost me there." Alex said and Elise rolled her eyes.
"This is part one, which means the entrance."
"And where is this party you so desperately want me to go?" Alex get that she was a thrill seeker but where is that damn party.
"My house." Elise said sweetly and Alex just shut up. Her old man'll have one hell of a heart attack once he sees him.
'Yeah, might not be boring after all.'
Lynn tapped on his shoulders and turned to her. "You scared?"
"Nah, just wondering how the hell did I get talked into this shit." He grumbled and Lynn giggled.
"It's because she asked you nicely." Gary laughed along with everyone else.
"Trust me, Lexi, you're gonna have a good time." Elise said, somewhat patting his shoulder.
"Yeah? We'll see."
Everyone just enjoyed the ride and one thought hit Alex, what about our rides? "Hey, what about our cars?"
"Don't worry about it. I got guys to get them back to your ridiculous manor." Sabrina said reassuringly. Well, at least his ride won't get lost, stolen, blown up, thrown to a helicopter, get squashed - you get the idea.
They were in the city at the jump altitude and Alex just looked out the window. 'Woah, hope the chute holds my weight.'
20,000 feet plus almost a ton of compressed biomass equals one big ass crater.
"Okay, you guys ready?!" Elise said and opened the door.
"Oh yeah!" Sabrina fist pumped.
"Let's do this!"
"I'm comin' food!"
"Amy, here I come!"
"Eh." Guess who that was.
They jumped out of the helicopter. Alex was the last because he wants to show off. When the time came, he back flipped out and did acrobatic maneuvers he learned - taken in NYZ.
Elise and the others did the same with their own flavors. Alex and Elise were chaotic in it. Unpredictable moves to match their almost unstable minds.
Kinda like ballet for the slightly insane.
When her house came into view, everyone opened the chute except for Alex who dived bombed to the front yard. He loved the air zipping past him.
'You're supposed to blend in, not get caught dumbass.' Alex heard the scolding voice of Dana and rolled his eyes.
"Gimme a break, it's not like I'm gonna blow my cover here."
Elise was a little worried, he was still dive bombing and made no move for the cord. 'Either he's more insane than I am, or he's committing suicide.'
Alex was still falling and Elise was getting scared, he wouldn't dare do this to her. Not under her watch, not while she invited him to her party, not while he was so much fun.
Alex just enjoyed the whistle of the wind and grinned gleefully, it's been so long since he did this.
No regard for any limbs or lives.
"I could do this all day." He was only a thousand feet from the ground and pulled the cord. "But sadly, all good things must come to an abrupt end."
As he descended, he cast a look to Elise and the others who were below him, having landed already. They had a look of relief on their faces and Alex laughed.
'Awww, didn't know the bitch cared.'
When he touched down, Elise walked up slowly to him with a smile. And when she was in front of him...
SLAP!
He expected that much.
"Are you fuckin' crazy?!" Elise shouted in his face.
He just gave her a look that says, 'Is that a trick question?' and she sighed.
"Don't do that ever again, no need to have a splat on my lawn." She walked off and Alex had a smirk on his face.
'Oh, there'll be more than a splat on your lawn, Elise.' He chuckled to himself and followed her in.
He had to admit, her house was almost as big as his. Too bad her old man was here.
When they entered, it was a full-blown rave. Music playing, food everywhere, and bunch of kids dancing around like total fuckheads.
"Wooo, now it's a party!" Elise, Sabrina, Lynn, and pretty much the rest yelled and went off to her room. She had to drag Alex along.
When they changed and gone down, they all go their party selves. Lynn, Sabrina, and Rebecca were flirting with boys left and right, Gary was gorging himself with food, Paul was with some girl, and Jack was dancing his ass off.
As for Alex and Elise? Well...
"For the last time, Elise, I am not dancing." Alex walked - more like limped to the door. Elise was kinda hanging on to his left leg.
"Alex, you gotta loosen up. It's not like you got anything better to do." Elise chuckled, still clinging to his leg.
'Wow, she's nuts.' Dana's voice echoed in his head, which made Alex even more annoyed.
"As a matter of fact, I do." He smirked down at her and she let go of his leg.
"Oh yeah?" She crossed her arms and got into his face.
"Yeah." They were only centimeters apart, neither backing down.
Here these two are, one is a living weapon of mass destruction, the other is a bat shit insane bitch with a deathwish. Bet that's everyday normal.
Giving out a sly smile, "Okay, give me one good reason. If it's good, then I'll kiss ya', if it's not, then you'll dance with me."
Did she actually meant that?
"Kiss me? Man, you got balls." Alex chuckled and the two failed to realize that everyone was watching them from the sidelines.
Too much fun. And craziness.
"Well, um, I got some paperwork to do." Alex said, half true. He did have some paperwork to do. Due in about a year.
"Yeah right, not good enough." Elise chuckled.
"My car needs work."
"Last time I checked, it was runnin' fine." Alex frowned.
"I have to buy groceries."
Elise shook her head. "Your refrigerator is loaded with food, jackass."
Alex growled, this was heading nowhere. "I have to buy some underwear."
'Underwear? That the best you could think of?' Alex could see Dana smacking his head for that.
Elise stifled a laugh, his excuses were just plain lame. "No way."
"You're pullin' my leg here. Okay, I gotta go water the...flowers?" What a lame ass excuse.
Elise finally laughed at him. "Bullshit! Hahahah, Alex you have no reason, do you?"
Alex was totally out of excuses because there was no reason for him to do anything at home. Well, maybe listen to the damn voices again. 'Goddammit.'
He raked his hand over his face. "Fine, fine, you win you demented being, I'll dance with ya'." He grumbled and heard her giggle.
"About fuckin' time. Oh and one more thing." She grabbed him by his collar and pulled him into a very VERY rough kiss.
The only thing that Alex had in his mind was, "What the fucking fuck was going on!" Elise, the craziest bitch he knew, was kissing him!
When she finally let go of his lips, the only thing he could think of was, "Am I in hell or something?" He must be because not even her was that crazy to kiss HIM!
Elise walked off with a faint blush, leaving Alex totally frozen. Even the voices stopped. All was black in his vision and his mouth was slightly gaping.
Visions of a girl kissing him replayed in his head. That was just...undoubtedly, unquestionably, 100% WHAT THE FUCK moment right there!
'Ooohh, Lexi and Lisi sitting on a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G.' Dana sang in his head, making him, for the first time in a long time, blush.
Grumbling in annoyance, he followed her to the danced floor. How dare she kissed him! No one, and ZUES means, NO THE FUCKING ONE does that to him!
'Elise just kissed me? Kissed me!' He fumed over this but strangely felt a little tingly. 'Huh, kissed me,'
There they stood, Elise had her arms crossed and a smile on and Alex just scowled. That little stunt was too daring that he almost felt respect for her. Almost.
"Okay, okay, let's get this over with." Alex smirked as did Elise.
She went up to him and they began to dance.
(Sorry, I don't get that much dance scenes but if you want some reference go check out step up 4 dance on the beach.)
"Goddamn, Alex, never knew you had those moves." Elise snickered once they were at the bar.
"Eh, had some help." Alex said plainly and sat down. Some of those Blackwatch goons were pretty good dancers. Hell, a few of them were contestants of some bullshit dance competition.
"Yeah, we both do." They laughed at that. They do need special help.
"Say, where the hell are your parents?" Alex looked around, surely they would've heard some of this racket and he would be damned if they didn't.
Elise giggled and handed him a beer. "Sent them on a week to Cairo."
Alex shrugged, if those fuckheads weren't here then blow him.
"Eh." They toasted and drank from the beer. "Do you always start parties like this?"
Elise just smirked. "Only when my over bearing parents are out of sight. I swear, they just butt in to every goddamn thing I do."
"True that." He snickered and they gulped down their beers in one swing. "Anyway, how's the life of a student doctor, bub?"
"Not that easy, but it'll pay off."
"Eventually." Elise smacked his shoulder and laughed. Alex laughed too.
"Hey, you're such a downer, you know."She huffed and stuck her tongue out at him.
Alex just gave her a deadpan look. "What gave me away?" Elise just sweat dropped and face palmed.
"Buddy, you're worse than Jack."
He just gave her a smirk. "You have no idea."
