alex's pov:
"are you upset with me?" it had been a quiet lunchtime - just me and jack - when i blurted out the question. it had been bothering me for days, maybe even a couple of weeks. there was no specific reason, i just felt like jack wanted to be around me less and less - and i couldn't stand it. i'd spoken to vic about how i felt, and he said that i was overthinking. we have finals soon - we've both been studying for them - our routine's out of sync. neither of us has loads of time at the moment, but that will change after all of the exams are over.
"no? why would i be?" jack replied, bewildered. i just shrugged. it was stupid. it was just a tiny thing and i couldn't bring myself to say it. what if he thought that he wasn't doing enough? what if he thought he wasn't making me happy? i didn't want him to think that. he's the best person i know, and he makes me so goddamn happy. i just wanted to know if he was getting bored of me or if he was super busy. i was pulled out of my thoughts by jack wrapping his hand around my shoulders. "alex, tell me."
"it's just... i feel like we've drifted a bit. not talking as much, stuff like that. i know that finals are a pain in the ass but i don't know if they're the reason we've not spoken as much recently or whether i've done something." i leaned into jack.
"alex, nothing's happened. all of my time is taken up with studying and i know yours is too. you've done nothing to upset me and i hope i haven't done anything to upset you. i know it's hard at the moment because we can't see each other as much or as often as we'd like but i'm really looking forward to the day when school doesn't matter as much because... well, every second i spend with you is when i'm happiest. god, that was cheesy." jack smiled down at me, and i just cuddled further into his side.
god, this boy meant so much to me. he's unreal. i'm so glad i found him.
"i love you," i whispered.
"i love you too, lex."
