"Alex!!!" Vhairi yelled, shutting her eyes tightly and freezing in her spot. Alex stood in front of her, wincing.
"I am so sorry..." he said. She opened her eyes and glared at him.
"You will be." She said deeply.
"Vhairi, let's not do something rash, it was an accident." Jack said, trying to back his friend up. They went to the park, Alex ordered a hot dog from a stand, loaded with ketchup, mustard, relish, and chili, and had just accidentally spilled it on Vhairi's white shirt by tripping over a stick.
"I can't walk around all day like this." Vhairi said angrily.
"Then just go to Alex's place and change. We'll wait here." Jack said, pointing across the street to where Alex lived.
Vhairi sighed.
"Fine. But I'm still pissed off." She said, holding her hand out for the keys. Alex fumbled around, searching his pockets for them and finally pulled them from out of his hoodie.
"You go with her." Jack said. Alex's eyes widened.
"What? I mean...she probably wants privacy." He said.
"Just go with her. I didn't say watch her change. Then we can go see the movie."
As many girlfriends as Alex had, you would think he'd have no problem walking her into his apartment. Especially since he'd known this one for years now.
He unlocked the door and Vhairi rushed past him and into his room to throw on one of his shirts. He looked around and balanced on his heels awkwardly before deciding to sit down.
Ten minutes later, he furrowed his eyebrows, confused as to why she'd be taking so long. He went to his bedroom door and put his hand up to knock on it, but was beat to the punch when it opened and he was face to face with Vhairi.
"Finally." He said, folding his arms. She rolled her eyes.
"I wasn't sure which shirt to wear." She said, shrugging. "Now out of my way, peasant."
He laughed and shook his head.
"I'm sorry? Was that a no?" she asked smirking. He nodded. "Move."
"I don't think so," he said, stretching his arms and putting each hand on both sides of the door.
"Why not?" she asked, pouting. The others knew they were probably taking so long because they were playing around again.
"Because I don't feel like it." Then she poked him in the stomach. He fought the urge to hunch over laughing, for it was his ticklish spot. He poked her in the stomach and she let out a Pillsbury Dough Boy laugh, which caused him to snicker.
She huffed and poked him again, only resulting in him doing the same. This went on for many seconds after until, laughing so hard, happy, and just plain caught up in the moment, Alex grabbed her hands, held them up, and kissed her.
Vhairi lowered her fingers, which had been raised with intentions to poke him again, and kissed back. Still gripping her hands, he wrapped them around his waist and held her face.
And that couple seconds of bliss ended with the annoying default ring tone on Alex's phone. He pulled away quickly and answered it.
"Oh...hi." He winced and held the phone away from him at Jack yelling, asking why the hell they were taking so long.
"We're coming now," he said, finally talking into the phone again. Then he hung it up and looked at Vhairi.
"Well...we should get going I guess." He said, trying to sound normal. He didn't know how well he was doing.
She just nodded, not knowing how else to respond.
She followed him out the door and down the stairs. When the got outside in front of the apartment on the steps, he turned to her.
"Just so you know, I'm not gonna pretend like that didn't happen." He said. She smiled slightly. "I just, you know, figured we sure hurry up and get out here. But we're getting together later right? Just the two of us?"
Vhairi's smile turned into a full out grin and she hugged him. When she pulled away his look was serious.
"That's a yes?" She rolled her eyes.
"Yes, you dumb fuck." With that, she started back across the street to the park. Alex turned around and ran after her.
"Hey!"
