Ch.9 - The Beginning Of Two Tales

"So, are you happy or are you happy?" Alex asked me, the date is going amazing, and he asks me this?

"I'm happy" I said in the best poker face I could do, I failed horribly

We both laughed it off.
After we were done with our pizza, Alex, invited me to a cafė not too far from the pizza place, we drinked some coffe of course, and talked a bit of our future, or at least what we thought would happen in our future

"Hey, you know what I see in my future?"

"A dick?"

I tried to not laugh and so did Alex but I failed horribly, Alex only chuckled, how? How can he not burst out laughing at my amazing jokes?

"Try to be serious, you 12 year old, you really don't act 21 and I've just noticed that" He said, chuckling once more

"And you don't really act 22" I said, he actually acts like a 15 year old

He chuckled, and sighed

"Look, Matt"

"Yeah, I'm looking"

He rolled his eyes but he looked like he wasn't annoyed with me which was amazing

"I know this has only been our first date but I want there to be more than just this one, so will you, um. . . be my. . . um. . . boyfriend?"

I was surprised and nervous, I love this kid but am I really ready for a relationship? I do know though, that I was ready to try something new

"Yes, Alex, I'll be your boyfriend. . . you awkward human bean" I answered his awkward question

"REALLY?!?" He yelled, and thus, making everyone look at us with wide eyes, as if they've never seen two guys hugging, which, to answer your question, yes, we are hugging

"Yes, now chill, everyone here is looking" I whispered to him, to which he answered with a smirk

"Does it look like I fucking care, Matt?" Shitshitshitshit he's about to do something

"No, but I do so plea- Mph" He kissed me to shut me up, and it worked

What felt like forever, actually only lasted for a couple of minutes, once we seperated I finally gasped for air, I'm very sorry if I am putting too much detail into this but that kiss was very amazing, aaaaannnndddd my first

"So? How was it?" He asked, very confident

"I-it w-was o-ok" I stuttered, I was a blushing mess, I'm pretty sure I looked like a tomato

"Ok? Are you sure?"

"N-n-no. . . It w-was amazing. . . p-pretty a-amazing f-for m-my. . . f-first"  I stuttered out, this guy is probably going to make fun of me

"W-What?" He asked wide eyed

"What you heard, bastard. . . It was my first" He was looking very happy

"OhMyGodOhMyGodOhMyGod. . . I stole my queens first kiss" He was practically bouncing

"And I'm about to steal your first slap"

"Okokok I get it. . . It's just that I'm so happy about it!" By now everyone was looking and awing and I think I saw an old couple just stare at us with awe. . . Jesus, they need to stop being creepy

"Fine" we both laughed for no reason

We exited the cafė, got inside Alexs' and I of course turned on the radio, there wasn't anything that we both liked so I decided to put some music from my phone. . . I don't know if Alex likes the same music I do. . but he has to now

"When the girls
When the girls talk
When the girls talk boys!
Oh when the girls
When the girls talk
When the girls talk boys!
Hey!"

"Matt. . . not them again"

"Alex. . . them again"

By them he means this band that I like, and it truly doesn't go any further than like, I'm not obsessesed over them but going to a concert would be nice, aaannnnddd I may have not paid for this song like I was supposed to. . but hey. . . everyone does that, right? right!

"When you're talking to your girls
Do you talk about me?
Do you say that I'm a sweetheart?
Do you say that I'm a freak?
Do you tell them white lies?
Do you tell em the truth?
Do you tell them that you love me the way that I've been lovin' you?"

"Ohmylord jesus christ. . that was beautiful" I heard Alex whisper, a very loud whisper by the way

"Eargasm?" I'm just asking him because damn, he nearly moaned, and he need to save that lil noise for way later. . or like in 10 years

"Yep" He whispered back, very embarrased. . he should be honestly

"'Cause every night you and I find ourselves
Kissing and touching like no one else
Falling and falling until I fell
For you"

"Awe" Alex looked at me and winked, well damn is this boy thirsty. . he need some gatorade

"'Cause I been talking to my friends
The way you take away my breath
It's something bigger than myself
It's something I don't understand
No, no
I know we're young and people change
And we may never feel the same
So baby tell me what you say"

"Fucking kill me if that isn't us" I kind of scared Alex since I hadn't talked for a couple of minutes, but it was funny to see him jump

"Hey!
When the girls
When the girls talk
When the girls talk boys!
Oh, when the girls talk boys"

"(I can hear 'em talking!)" Alex was singing along with the song now. . I told you everyone hears music without paying most times. .

"Oh, when the girls
(When the girls!)
When the girls talk
When the girls talk boys!
Hey!
When you're talking to your girls
Do you talk about me?
Do you tell that I'm your lover?
That I'm all that you need?
Do you tell 'em white lies?
Do you tell 'em the truth?
Do you tell 'em that you love me
The way that I've been loving you?"

"Ohmylord jesus fucking christ. . . that was amazing" Alex whispered very loudly. . . again

"You need to calm your tits ok? You thirsty hoe" Alex laughed at what I had said and shook his head

"'Cause every night you and I find ourselves
Kissin' and touchin' like no one else
Fallin' and falling until I fell
For you
'Cause I've been talkin' to my friends
The way you take away my breath
It's something bigger than myself
It's something I don't understand no, no"

"That's called love" I heard Alex say

"Yup. ."

"I know we're young and people change
And we may never feel the same
So, baby tell me what you say"

"Yeah, Matt! Tell me what you say!"

"I say that you're a dick"

"When the girls
When the girls talk
When the girls talk boys"

"(I can hear 'em talking)" Alex was singing along again. . . so why shouldn't I?

"(Chicha ch ch cha)
Oh, when the girls
When the girls talk
When the girls talk boys"

"(Ba ba ba)" Man I love to sing that part, it's very fun, it's pretty much the bass playing, and  it's fun to make believe that I'm playing the bass guitar

"(When the girls talk boys!)
Talk talk talk talk
(When the girls talk boys!)
(When the girls!)
Talk talk talk talk
Talk talk talk talk"

"Hey!" We yelled the last word of the song and calmed down from that very fun, very tiny party, we still had 12 minutes until we arrived to my apartment, and 3 minutes wasted on that song are not regretable

"That was fun"

"Muy fun, very party"

Alex laughed at my comment, he gets wierd when he hears a song, well, he gets thristy as fuck, and really awkward. . . or is that only with me?

"Did you pay for that song-"

"Nope, I found it in a music app" I interrupted

"Thought so"

"So. . . Another song?" I asked, eager for the next song

"Yeah"

"Alright!-"

"But, I pick the next song. . which is going to be a legal one. . not one that is supposed to be bought"

"Hey! I couldn't wait any longer and it's not like I searched through some private information to get it. . I was just lucky to find it in a music app. ."

"Fine. . just don't tell everyone you've heard the song before it was supposed to be released. ."

"Okokokokokok"

Alex chuckled and messed with my hair with one hand

"Ok so this next one is one of my most liked ones, not yet a favorite, but I don't hate it"

"Play it already"

Alex looked offended but I knew he was playing

"I was walking down the street
When out the corner of my eye
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me"

"Damn damn damn, he got a hooker" Of course I couldn't keep my mouth shut

"She said I never seen a man
Who looks so all alone
Could you use a little company?
If you pay the right price
Your evening will be nice"

"Oh Damn!! He got some!" Yup, my mouth will not keep shut

"Leave the damn man alone, Matty" Alex tried not to laugh while saying that

"And you can go send me on my way"
I said "You're such a sweet young thing
Why'd you do this to yourself?"
She looked at me and this is what she said:
"Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothin' in this world for free
I know I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know I wish I could
Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
Till' we close our eyes for good"

"My lord that is too real. . it hurts my heart" I have never heard of keep your comments to yourself

"Not even fifteen minutes later
After walking down the street
When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
And then he swept up from behind
He put a gun up to my head
He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight
He said "Give me all you've got
I want you money not your life
But if  you try to make a move I won't think twice"

"Oh if anyone does that to me I'll take out my wings and destroy their sorry ass"

"I told him "You can have my cash
But first you know I've got to ask
What made you want to live this kind of life?"

"Or do that"

"He said "There ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I know I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know I wish I could
Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Till' we close our eyes for good"
Now a couple hours pass
And I was sitting in my house
The day was winding down and coming to an end
So I turned on the tv
And flipped it over to the news
And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend
I saw a preacher man in cuffs taking money from the church
He stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
But even still I can't say much cause I know we're all the same
Oh yes
We all seek out to satisfy those thrills"

"And we do that by robbing, of course"

"You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
We got bills to pay
We got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
And we can't slow down
We can't hold back
Though you know we wished we could
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good"

Damn, that was a good song, and a very realistic one too

"Hey! We're here. . . just incase you didn't realize"

"Oh. . ah, yeah. . . well, bye babe"

"You know. . .I think I deserve a lil kiss"

"And you'll get one"

I leaned over to kiss him but realized that Marshall was looking out the window of our apartment and would kill me if he saw that happen, so I just gave Alex a peck on the cheek

"Awe. . that's not fair"

"It isn't but neither would it be if Marshall saw us and killed us"

"True"

I was getting out the car, when I heard Marshall scream

"Ok Alex! You can give me my brother back now!"

Both of us chuckled

"Fine!"

I waved Alex goodbye and watched until the lights of his car mixed in with the rest

I ran back up to my apartment because I was scared of the dark, so I ran like sonic

I rang the bell that was outside the entrance door to my apartment, and Marshall opened the door, he looked more worried than when I heard him yell

"We have visitors" I noticed Marshall mouth

I was confused, who? Who could possibly be visiting at this time?

"Matthew! Long time no seen!" That was a voice all too familiar

Vanessa Maslow

"It's us! The Maslow family!"

Fuckfuckfuck. . . This girl. . . Vanessa, I dated her a couple years ago, when I turned 15 up until I entered the Angel School. . And let me tell you that this bitch is an obssesive girl. . she texted me for like 5 months straight until I got a new phone. . . She's probably going to kill me

"So how has your life been? Matty-Matt?" I flinched at the name, she isn't what she looks like. . she is the devil, I worry for everyone she has dated, they are all probably paranoid she'll be back. . yeah, she's that bad
