Summary: Jack was so young, yet already broken.
Alex's lungs were running out of air. His lungs burning. He was gasping for air as he sprinted down the hill and through the trees, heading to the back building.
He reached the bottom of the hill. He heard snickering, it sounded like Caleb. He turned the corner and there they were. The three bastards leaning over Jack's small delicate frame. Jack's eyes grew wide as he spotted Alex. He was afraid he was going to join in on the pain and torture.
Instead Alex started yelling at Caleb. "Caleb what the fuck, Get off him."
Kyle had let go of Jack and pounced on Alex sending him straight to the ground. Alex struggled under his touch. Kyle threw a punch at Alex's face successfully hitting the boy in the cheek. Jack screamed. "Don't touch him"
Alex grabbed his cheek. Jonathan kept a strong grip on Jack's shoulders making sure he wasn't going anywhere til Caleb was done with his fun.
Alex shoved Kyle off him and punched him straight in the nose. Kyle grabbed his face and began to whine. Alex jumped up and sprinted towards Caleb. Successfully knocking him off Jack and sending both boys tumbling down the hill. Caleb had dropped the cigarette and Kyle quickly put it out. Jonathan kept a firm grasp on Jack as he was jolting against it.
Alex and Caleb rolled down the hill, they hit the bottom and Alex was on the bottom. Caleb hovering over his body. Both boys panting hard. "Get off me" Alex snapped. In return Caleb sent a hard punch in the blonde boys stomach cause a loud groan to erupt from his mouth.
"You ruined my fun Gaskarth" Caleb said rolling off him. Alex rolled over, grabbing his side. He still had enough in him to bring his left foot up and kick Caleb in the back of the knee, sending him to the ground. Alex stood up and kicked him in the stomach. "Leave Jack alone. Don't ever touch him again or i'll kill your sorry ass." Alex kicked Caleb once more before turning around.
Alex walked back up the hill while holding his side. Both Kyle and Jonathan waiting orders. "Get away. LEAVE." Alex screamed and the two boys stumbled off top find Caleb.
Alex looked down at Jack. The two bleeding, circular marks on his cheek. Jack brought his hand up to touch the marks on his skin. Gasping as he came in contact with the wounds. "Don't touch it, you'll make it worse." Alex informed him.
Jack struggled to get up into a sitting position. Alex leaned in to help. "get off" Jack spoke sharply.
He got up and grabbed his hoodie, throwing it over his body quickly to cover up the ugly scars on his arms. Alex looked at his once perfect, best friend. "Jack, let me help you" Jack shoved Alex away and started to stand up only to find his knees were weak. He almost fell back to the ground but Alex caught him. "Jack, please. I only want to help you"
Jack shoved Alex off and started walking back up the hill towards the building.
He called back at Alex. "You can help me by not talking to me." That dug right into Alex's heart, ripping it out and throwing it a thousand miles away.
The day went on and Alex and Jack had just about every class together. Which made Jack so angry. They even had lunch together. Jack hated seeing Alex sitting at the same table as that whore. Gosh she's gross. Her tongue is always down his throat. You'd thing he would get sick of it. Gross. Jack wouldn't stay in the cafe. He would stay in the bathroom, til the bell rang. He would sob uncontrollably until his eyes would feel like they were bleeding. The thought of the friendship he and Alex once shared. The sting in his eyes remained there. He would sometimes even cut at school. Leaving blood stains on the cool tiles.

It was late at night and Jack was left all alone at his home, watching cheap shows on the tv. He had the sudden urge to talk to Alex, but could bring himself to the phone.
The door flew open and his angry father came stomping through the room.
It was too late to ask Alex for help now.
His father came into the room quickly and grabbed his son by his hair and dragging him out into the lawn. "I had a bad day today, don't make things worse"
He started throwing punches, and kicks, and more punches. Jack's slender frame taking in every punch and kick his father gave him.
After it was over his father walked back into the house and locked the door. He yelled back out "You're sleeping out there tonight" Jack's tears started falling faster. He slowly got up from the ground and limped to Alex's house. It was the first place he could think of. He had no where else to go, and it was cold out.
He reached the back gate and climbed through the whole just like old times. He climbed up the same tree as always and Alex's window was already open. He knocked on it softly before entering.
The blonde boy looked up from the computer and stumbled over to the window to help Jack in. Jack didn't say a word as Alex helped him to the bed. Alex sprang out the door and downstairs to get the first aid kit. When he arrived back to his room Jack was crying.
Alex slowly sat next to him. "W-what happened Jack?"
"M-my dad. H-he b-beat me." Jack gulped and Alex started to dab the blood off of the younger boys head. "I'm so sorry Jack, you need to get away from him" Alex continued to clean up the young boy. "He's not doing anything to help the problems you are going through."
Jack stood up. "yeah well neither are you" He yelled. Alex looked at him wide eyed. "I'm sorry Jack, please just give me a chance" Jack took a deep breath and sat back down next to Alex.
"You have one more chance. Don't fuck it up." Jack said.
Alex face lit up. A huge grin spreading across his face. "I miss you Jack"
"I miss you too Alex"
Jack broke down and began to cry. Alex pulled him into a hug. Alex let him get it all out before tucking him in to the bed. Jack was tucked tightly underneath the warm covers of Alex's bed. Alex crawled in after turning off the lights.
"C-can we cuddle?" Alex asked.
Just like old times. Jack turned around and dug his face in Alex's chest. Alex wrapped his arms around jack and pulled him close. "You smell nice" Jack added. Alex giggled. "Jack?"
"yeah?"
"Do you remember the first time you spent the night? In first grade?"
"of course"
Alex took a deep breath.
"We kissed." Jack licked his lips.
"Yeah. I remember." Jack said.
"You want to try it again?" Alex asked. Jack pulled away.
"You have a girlfriend Alex."
"Yeah so? She doesn't have to know."
Jack leaned back down on his side. Alex scooted in closer. Both boys only inches apart. Alex brought his hand up to cup Jack's cheek. Jack's heart was racing. His mind wandering. His lips aching to taste the older boy again.
Jack brought his hand up to cup Alex's cheek. Alex leaned in and placed his lips on Jack's. Their lips were made for each other. Alex pressed harder, deepening the kiss. Jack pulled away the slightest before pushing back against Alex's lips, adding more passion. Things got heated quickly. Alex swiped his tongue against Jack's lower lip, and he opened his mouth to allow the older boy in.
Their tongues fighting for dominance only before Alex gave in to Jack's. Jack leaned over to begin hovering over the older boy. Alex pulled Jack on top up him, remaining in the kiss. He brought his hands down to rest on the dip in Jacks back. Jacks' fingers intertwined with Alex's' blonde locks. He pulled on Alex's head pushing their lips together harder. Alex's hands were rested on Jack's hips, pulling him closer to his body.
The passion in the kisses couldn't be broken.
Jack pulled away and fell beside Alex. Both boys panting. Their minds racing and thinking and trying to take in what just happened.
"Woah" Alex said first then Jack.
"Woah"
