Alex sighed as he dialed ten digits on his phone. He nervously pressed the phone to the side of his head and bit his lip. He'd been debating weather or not to do this all morning, after spending the evening with Jack yesterday.
---
Jack answered his phone to an unknown number, and smiled the second he recognized the voice.
"Hey Jack. It's me... Alex. I uh... wanted to know what you were doing t-tonight."
"Nothing important, why?" Jack answered slowly.
"Well, I was hoping I could take you out... like, on a date. That is only if you're interested because I'm sure you have better ways to spend your Monday nights like feeding your fish, mowing your lawn, grocery shopping, jerking off.... playing Jenga-" Alex got cut off by Jack chuckling fondly at the boy's rant.
"Yeah, yeah. No, I'd love to go with you, what time?" Jack said while checking his watch to see that it was 4pm.
"I'll pick you up about 7. Don't eat." The older boy could stop smiling.
"Can't wait, see you at 7." Jack was beaming.
"Bye Jack." Alex said, his voice a bit softer. Jack laughed inwardly.
"Bye Alex." Jack repeated, waiting a few seconds before he hung up. Jack hadn't been on a date in what felt like forever, even if it was only a couple months. The only difference was Alex was taking him out. And Jack had never been taken out before. Needless to say, the younger boy was pretty excited.
----
The older boy sat on his bed after hanging up the phone.
Alex couldn't stop thinking about who he's become. Alex knew he had a reputation at school that he had to keep, and stick with the status quo. Alex was known for sleeping with girls, being a dick, and trying to pick up young teachers. All of Alex's friends knew it wasn't really him, but he didn't let anyone else in on his front.
Alex was full on gay, he never really liked girls after he kissed one in seventh grade- which he thought was disgusting and straight up told the girl. He didn't really sleep with girls all the time, but he sure did play them. He knew what to say and do to make a girl swoon, and he got a little carried away to keep his straight cover after the years.
Also, Alex wasn't a dick. Alex was sweet and would show it sometimes. People knew if some kid was being picked on and Alex was in the hallway, he's run right over to break it up. Alex started getting the douche appeal when he punched a kid for calling another kid a "faggot", a few other impulsive moves regarding similar cases. He'd rather have people think false accusations of him than have non-popular kids have a horrible high school experience. Alex knew he was lucky to be a part of the popular crowd, because no one hardly ever gave him trouble. He's unfortunate enough to go to a school where everyone is a homophobic asshole.
And picking up on young teachers? He liked to consider it a smooth way to kiss ass. The teachers would always blush and let him out of assignments just from a false compliment coming from Alex Gaskarth.
Alex knew why he was popular. His friends. Zack and Rian played football, Matt was the really smooth guy that had a way with people. All three were attractive guys. Kyle was the only openly bisexual in the group. He wasn't really in their group, Kyle was funny, well-rounded guy who got along with everyone, so he was always in between Brendon/ Ryan's group, and theirs, mostly in Ryden's because they were open about their relationship and Kyle could be openly gay around them.
Alex didn't know why girls liked him. He wasn't very attractive, to say so himself. He didn't think he was ugly, but not a bombshell like Jack. Jack, who would be the sexy, charming, sweet, funny, total-package in their group.
Jack, oh Jack, what would he say if he knew the other side of Alex? The side only his classmates brought out. Also, what would he say once he found out about the older boy's reputation? And surely he'll hear rumors… maybe Alex will jot down exactly what he's thinking now and just have a talk with Jack, saying that it's all show.
Speaking of Jack, how could he have this effect on Alex?
Alex plans on having a relationship with Jack if this date goes well. If they do become boyfriends, he doesn't even know if he wants to have sex with Jack. Of course Alex has thought about it, Jack is the hottest thing on the east cost as far as Alex is concerned. Alex probably could be considered a whore when it comes to sex, but he's not a whore in general. He's sept with a few girls before, but he only did while drunk at parties. Mainly girls made up rumors that they gave Alex a blowjob or something to look hot or cool or whatever the fuck they're aiming for, and Alex doesn't bother denying it. Alex Gaskarth is at the head of Dulaney High, and mysterious is never a bad look.
Also, Alex never did cutesey things for people. Like go for coffee and try to make other people blush. And Alex Gaskath did not do cheek kisses. Usually Alex would have made a few dick jokes towards the younger boy, and make a few sexual comments. He never had deep conversations, the raven haired boy was just…. different. Alex realized, that he was a tool, and Jack was a toolshed, hiding his inner tool. Alex also realized that he should never try to make analogies.
The brunette realized he had to be at Jack's in an hour and hopped in the shower.
---
At 6:59 Jack was sitting in front of his front door like lost puppy. Thousands of thoughts swarmed his head about him being stood up or Alex hadn't been serious, but he was interrupted when the doorbell rang. Jack jumped to his feet and straightened his clothes out. He wore a red button down and a black tie to match his black pants. He opened the door to reveal Alex looking like a sexy mother fucker. Jacks mind was running so fast he almost forgot to greet the boy.
"Hey!" Jack said, standing by the door. He checked out Alex who was wearing black jeans, a white button up with the sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and a grey beanie to match his dark grey tie. "You look good. Come on in."
Alex followed him into the house and closed the door behind him. Alex took note of everything in Jack's house. It was modern and fancy, he came to the conclusion the older boy's family was rich. Jack promised to be right back and ran upstairs and checked every room to find his parents to tell them he was heading out. He stopped in front of his room and picked up a piece of parchment that was on the floor, it was a note from his patents that read:
'Dear Jack, your father and I have left on an urgent business meeting in New York. I wanted to tell you in person but you were showering. I've left you enough money in your bank account to last the week. Please walk to school on Wednesday since we won't be returning until later that evening. Stay away from drugs and alcohol. Xox, mom.'
Jack almost forgot Alex was there as his eyes started to get hot. It was Alex's cough that turned his attention away from the note and had him blinking back tears. Alex cocked his head to the side and approached Jack slowly. He wrapped his arms around the younger boys 's frame and took the note from Jack with one hand. He hooked his chin over Jacks shoulder, reading the message when he felt Jack return the hug, griping to Alex as if his life depended on it. The shorter of the two then pulled away slightly from the hug and put two fingers under Jack's chin.
"Hey, hey look at me. Jack." Jack's eyes slowly trailed back up to meet Alex's gaze.
"It's okay." Alex continued. "Shit happens. But let's not let that effect tonight, okay? Because tonight is just you and me- and nothing's going to ruin our first date, alright?"
Jack tightened his grip back on Alex again before replying. "I barley know you, but I wish you had come into my life sooner." Alex barley heard, since Jack's face was pressed into Alex's hair, but that didn't stop the smile from growing on to his face. He pressed his nose into Jacks shoulder before breaking the hug once again.
"C'mon, I planned the corniest night for us. Let's go." Alex said giving Jack a small smile before heading for the door.
"You got everything?" Jack simply nodded before locking the door behind him and following Alex into his car.
The drive to the restaurant was quiet at first. Jack noticed Alex kept awkwardly looking at the radio. Finally, Alex bit his lip urned up the music and First Date by Blink 182 was playing. Alex caught the younger boy's smile when he heard the song playing softly in the car.
They arrived at a classy restaurant not too long after the song had ended. Alex held Jack's hand while maneuvering through the crowd of people and stopped in front of a podium. A college woman with a blonde ponytail turned around to greet the two.
"Table for two?" She asked, followed with a smile, aimed at the raven haired boy. "Better be" Jack mumbled quietly to his insecure self, but Alex chuckled a little to himself and nodded at the waitress. "Yeah, it'll be just us." he said, before turning to wink at Jack. Thank God Jack's blush died down by the time they reached their table.
The waitress handed both boys menus before walking away. Alex thought she seemed like a nice girl, until he saw the flirty looks she was giving Jack. Jeez, can't this bitch see that he's gay? What a total skank. Thankfully Jack wasn't returning the flirtatious looks, but Alex was still on guard. That was until Jack reached across the table to place his hand on top of Alex's soothingly. Alex averted his eyes up and Jack smiled shyly back at him.
"Everything okay?" Jack said, tilting his head slightly to the side. He started rubbing comforting circles on Alex's hand with his thumb.
"Did you see the way the waitress was looking at you? It's like your a piece of meat! She's looked at you like four times since she's left our table. I bet her other job is prostitutio-"
"Alex." Jack's laughing made him almost incoherent. "Stop worrying. I'm here with you because I like you, not to bring a waitress home." The younger boys laughter and had down, and he gave Alex's hand a reassuring squeeze.
"You... You like me?" Alex asked disbelievingly, giving a crooked smile. Jack rolled his eyes at how oblivious his date was.
"Of course I do. I'm here, aren't I?" Jack leaned back I'm his chair and winked at the older boy. Alex sat dumbfounded, not being able to comprehend how someone as great as Jack was interested in someone average and boring like he was.
The two spent the evening finding out more about each other. Alex was impressed with Rian's pick, because Jack shared almost all the same interests as he did. Plus, Jack had the most amazing sense of humor and had the cutest laugh.
They're sharing champagne and Alex is waiting for the check. Jack and him spent seven minutes arguing on who should pay and why, but Alex placed his hand in top of Jack's, making the younger boy shut up and agreed to paying next time. Alex smiled hearing that Jack was expecting a 'next time'.
The waitress gave Jack a piece of paper with ten digits scribbled on it and put the check on the table. Alex quickly swiped the paper from the younger boy and tore it in half, keeping eye contact the entire time with the waitress- who scurried off for the rest of the night. Jack erupted in laughter once she was out of earshot and shook his head at the older boy in disbelief at the jealous action. Jack's pretty sure his date was the most adorable thing to walk the planet. Alex was really, really hot when he was jealous.
The drive home wasn't bad, but much more silent than what would have been appreciated. It was fairly quiet, because both boys were too nervous to talk. The only verbal words exchanged were small talk, and Alex offering Jack gum. Jack accepted, not knowing what was coming up once they approached his doorstep.
Their minds were racing as they neared Jack's house. Neither one knew if they were going to kiss at his doorstep, or hug, or hell- shake hands. They kissed once, so they should kiss again, right?
Alex parked his car in front of Jack's house. Jack took a deep breath before Alex opened the door for him, and he exited the vehicle giving the older boy a small smile.
"I had a really nice time tonight, thank you for taking me out." Jack said, scratching the back of his neck.
"I did too, thanks for, you know, agreeing to come with me." Alex said, still not meeting Jack's gaze. Jack put his hand under Alex's chin and lifted his face up to meet him, his eyes going back and forth from Alex's eyes to his mouth.
Jack finally grew a pair and he closed the gap between them, pulling on Alex's tie since he was slightly too far away. After a few seconds Alex was kissing back, and he put his other hand behind Alex's neck- keeping one on the tie because he was hoping Alex found that hot and Jack's seen it in movies. Soon enough Alex's hands were at Jack's waist and he was putting more pressure into the kiss, deepening it and moulding their mouths together. Alex opened his mouth a little to breathe, so Jack took the opportunity to pushed his tongue into Alex's mouth. He tasted like heaven and mint while they battled tongues and Jack never wanted to break away.
The next thing he knew, the older boy was walking him backwards until Jack's back was against the wall. Jack tried his best to bring Alex even closer by moving his hand from the tie to his hair and bringing him forward, because the kiss was hot and minty and perfect. Alex had one foot stepping on one of Jack's to push himself against jack as hard as he could, because the space between them was killing both boys. Neither of them wanted to break the kiss. That is, until Jack's pants started getting tight.
Jack finally retreated his tongue back into his own mouth and starred into Alex's eyes, the older boy's face being no more than a few inches away. Jack moved the hand he had in Alex's hair to stroke lightly at the brunette locks.
"You know, I really like you too." Alex mumbled, bringing one hand to cup the side of Jack's face. He planted one more slow kiss to Jack's lips and he stepped away. He winked before turning around and walking back to his Prius, wondering if what just happened was real or not.
Jack walked inside his house and went straight to his room. He was really, really thankful for Alex's gum suggestion. He kept dancing his fingers over his mouth as he played the kiss over and over in his head. God damn Alex was a good kisser. Jack managed to get off his shirt and pants and fell asleep immediately, still tasting him on his tongue, just wishing it was tomorrow already just so he could hear the sweet melody of Alex's voice when he called.
--
"Okay Alex, I've given you enough time to sit in your room being the loser that you are, now open the door and tell me about your date." Zack demanded while pounding on Alex's door.
Alex opened the door to face the most hopeful looking boy he's ever seen.
"I've been in here for no more than two minutes. And it went fine Zack." Alex smiled as he realized fine probably the understatement of the year.
"Tell me! C'mon SexiLexi, details!" squealed Zack, who was taking note on how Alex's bottom lip was still a bit swollen and more red than usual.
"It went fine. We had a good time." Alex tried to keep a blank expression while remembering the night's previous events.
"Did you guys smoochy smooch?" Zack said, raising and eyebrow as Alex blushed.
"No, we did none of that. We kissed. Because we're not five and say 'smoochy smooch'." Alex seriously wondered about this boy sometimes.
"RI-RI! THEY KISSED! ALEX GOT SOME TONGUE ACTION! WOOOHOO! Come look, his lip is red and swollen!" Zack screamed to Rian while shaking his hips and holding his hands in the air. Rian walked out from the living room and joined them at the end of the hall.
"I knew you'd put out." Zack said with a wink.
"Nice going bro, what base did you get to?" Rian said, putting his hand on Zack's shoulder.
"Actually, Jack initiated the kiss thank you very much. And there were no bases. We made out and then I went home." Alex said matter of faculty crossing his arms.
"Alex, your rep at school is built off you getting into everyone's pants. Why should we believe nothing else happened." Rian said with a smirk, in attempt to get Alex to spill.
"Because, he's relationship material and relationships aren't based off of sex. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to go jack off to the thought of his hard on against my hip and his tongue tasting mine. Goodnight." Alex shut the door in front of his friends faces.
"What the hell has gotten into him?" Alex heard Rian say as he heard the mentioned man's footsteps fading.
"Need some tissues?" Came a quit voice from the other side of the door a few seconds later.
"No, Zack, I'm fine." Alex sighed and face palmed himself.
"Are you sure Lexy? Because I have some really nice scented ones that-" Zack got cut off by Alex snorting.
"Dude, I'll be fine." he said as he walked towards his bed.
Once Alex sat down he began to wonder why he had been so prude compared to his usual self. He didn't even try to kiss the younger boy's neck, or palm him through his jeans, or even say something seductive. Normally he would have tried all three. Hell, he even knew Jack's house would be empty. Alex pushed the thoughts away and got down to business, picturing it as Jack's hand instead of his own.

"Well, I was hoping I could take you out... like, on a date.

"Yeah, yeah. No, I'd love to go with you, what time?" Jack said while checking his watch to see that it was 4pm.

"No, we did none of that. We kissed. Because we're not five and say 'smoochy smooch'." Alex seriously wondered about this boy sometimes.
"RI-RI! THEY KISSED! ALEX GOT SOME TONGUE ACTION! WOOOHOO! Come look, his lip is red and swollen!" Zack screamed to Rian while shaking his hips and holding his hands in the air. Rian walked out from the living room and joined them at the end of the hall.
"I knew you'd put out." Zack said with a wink.
"Nice going bro, what base did you get to?" Rian said, putting his hand on Zack's shoulder.
"Actually, Jack initiated the kiss thank you very much. And there were no bases. We made out and then I went home." Alex said matter of faculty crossing his arms.
"Alex, your rep at school is built off you getting into everyone's pants. Why should we believe nothing else happened." Rian said with a smirk, in attempt to get Alex to spill.
"Because, he's relationship material and relationships aren't based off of sex. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to go jack off to the thought of his hard on against my hip and his tongue tasting mine. Goodnight." Alex shut the door in front of his friends faces.
"What the hell has gotten into him?" Alex heard Rian say as he heard the mentioned man's footsteps fading.
"Need some tissues?" Came a quit voice from the other side of the door a few seconds later.
"No, Zack, I'm fine." Alex sighed and face palmed himself.
"Are you sure Lexy? Because I have some really nice scented ones that-" Zack got cut off by Alex snorting.
"Dude, I'll be fine." he said as he walked towards his bed.
Once Alex sat down he began to wonder why he had been so prude compared to his usual self. He didn't even try to kiss the younger boy's neck, or palm him through his jeans, or even say something seductive. Normally he would have tried all three. Hell, he even knew Jack's house would be empty. Alex pushed the thoughts away and got down to business, picturing it as Jack's hand instead of his own.
