Manage Me, I'm a Mess
The thing I think I love, will surely bring me pain
(next day)
-Alex's POV-
I smile when I wake up next to a sleeping Jack, he looks so damn peaceful.
Suddenly Jacks body starts shaking and a scream escapes his lips,
'Jack, Jack baby, wake up.' I whisper, squeezing him tightly, he jolts awake and starts breathing heavily,
'Sorry.' he mumbles,
'Its alright baby boy, wanna talk?' i ask and he shakes his head, nuzzling into my neck,
'Hold me really, really tight.' he whispers and I wrap my arms right around him and hold him tightly,
'Okay?' I ask and he nods, breathing against my skin, 'I love you my darling, so, so damn much, you're not alone, you can talk to me.' I whisper and he nods again, breathing a 'thank you, I love you.' against my neck.
(a month later)
'Alex, Jack, can you come down here please?' Joyce calls and Jack sighs and pulls away from my lips and climbs off my lap, I groan when I notice the bulge in my pants,
'Are you okay going downstairs?' he laughs and I nod, adjusting my pants so it's barely noticeable, 'You're fine, if I cant see it, mum won't see it.' he grins and helps me up, pecking my lips softly, 'She may notice how red your lips are though.' he smile and I blush, 'She doesn't give a shit, we're dating, we're young, we're gonna wanna make out.' he winks and takes my hand, pulling me out our room.
'Boys sit down.' Bassam sighs and my chest instantly goes tight,
'Hey, babe, it's okay.' jack whispers and helps me sit down, he wraps his arms around me and kisses my temple, 'Whats up?' he asks his parents and Joyce looks at us sadly,
'Boys, a letter turned up this morning... And well... Alex, what do you remember of your dad?' she asks,
'Not much. He left when I was 3, I was too small to remember anything.' I shrug,
'Have you seen him since he left?' Bassam asks,
'No. Not even heard from him.' I say, confused and jack squeezes me tightly,
'Alex, this letter is from the court. Your father is going to hold a trial to try and get custody of you.' Joyce says sadly,
'WHAT?!' me and jack shout at the same time,
'NO! No he can't take my Alex!' Jack cries, holding me tightly,
'Jack, calm down.' I whisper, stroking his hair as tears fill my eyes,
'He can't take me, can he Joyce? I whisper,
'We're gonna fight our hardest for you Lexy. But he's your father and you're still under 18.' Bassam sighs and a sob escapes my lips,
'They can't let him take me! He's horrible!' I cry,
'Sh darling, it's gonna be okay.' Joyce whispers and rushes over, hugging me and jack tightly.
(later on)
'I can't lose you.' Jack whispers, running his fingers up and down my bare chest,
'You won't Jack. It's gonna be okay.' I whisper, putting my hand over his and squeezing it,
'I love you.' he croaks,
'I love you more sweetie.' I smile softly,
'Hell no.' he smirks,
'I do. Because of you, I'm alive.' I whisper,
'Because of you, I feel alive.' he says softly, blushing,
'Come here.' I whisper and bring his lips to mine and kiss him softly.
