2024-10-29 19:42:56Alice hadn’t stopped thinking about Adam all day. Part of her felt stupid—for being so rubbish in bed and failing at the most basic of sexual positions. Yet, there was a part of her that was excited to try again. That initial feeling of him entering her was something she craved. Every time she thought about it, the craving deepened, leaving her sitting in class while uncomfortably wet. If she got any hornier, she ran the risk of ending up like the creepy kid who’d been caught masturbating in the toilets.
After lunch, Alice met Ed and Joseph in Art class. Ed was giving details about his date, who was apparently the only woman in existence who lived for Warhammer and LARPing. She was hot, too, Ed explained, which was always a plus.

A blast of cold air wafted into the kitchen as Jamie opened the front door. He had this terrible habit of leaving the door open as he took his shoes and jacket off, going back to close it as an afterthought while the rest of the house shivered.“You’re letting all the heat out,” Mum shouted from the living room. This was one of Mum’s favourite sayings.“Sorry,” Jamie shouted back. He rolled his eyes as he joined Alice at the kitchen table. Spotting her cup of tea, he hinted, “Have you just boiled the kettle.”This, in her house, was code for, “Make me a drink

‘Another Friday night alone,’ Alice sighed to herself. It wasn’t unusual. Ed was always dating, and Joseph had to work. Ed had invited Alice along on his night out with Carla—now his official girlfriend—but Alice didn’t want to feel like a third wheel.It was pointless to go in and pester Joseph at work on a Friday too, he was always run off his feet. She would be left sitting at the bar like a sad, lonely singleton, waiting for some man to come and sweep her away. The only men that ever approached her were too old, too drunk or just too gross.‘I have to have some standards,’ Alice thought. ‘Veeery basic standards.’

“A’ight?” Mike greeted the couple. He didn’t seem surprised to see Alice.It was weird, but Alice was starting to feel at home in Adam’s house. His family—the dog and the brother—both appeared to have accepted her.“What are you watching?” Adam asked him as he sat on the sofa and pulled Alice down to join him.“Some shit about revising sentences for violent offenders,” Mike explained. “This one guy, right, he used to be some proper gangster. Got nicked for stabbing someone to death and now he’s out and reformed.”

Alice woke up from a nightmare in the early hours of the morning. For a brief moment, she had zero recollection of her whereabouts and panicked as she looked about the strange, dimly lit room.Hearing a soft snore, she reached down to feel Adam, who mumbled something in his sleep and rolled over. Alice immediately felt better. The monster from her dream-world suddenly seemed a lot less scary with Adam by her side.It was always weird waking up to a foreign room, especially one so dark. The only light came from the streetlamp outside, filtering through a tiny gap beneath the blackout blind.Though she wouldn&rsqu

Alice jumped to the floor, doing a front flip with barrel roll before diving under the bed. She froze in position just as the door opened and the room filled with the sound of overlapping conversations. She could hear a female and male voice arguing—probably Zoe and Reece, as well as her brother giving a monologue about a guy called Zeke. Apparently, Zeke was overrated and not as ‘woke’ as he made out.“Maybe… you know… knock next time,” Adam scolded them. “I could have been doing anything in here.”“Oh, like what?” Reece joked. “Having another imaginary threesome with Freya and Andrea?”&nb

Alice stared out of the window, mesmerised by the raindrops that made their way down the glass. Two drops would veer into each other, become one giant blob before splashing to the floor.‘Sort of like people,’ Alice thought. Adam had been on her mind since the incident in his front yard. Seeing him fight—or rather—beat someone up had been eye-opening to say the least. She could tell herself it didn’t matter how he treated other people over and over, but somewhere deep inside herself, Alice knew it mattered.“Wake up,” Joseph said, poking her in the rips. “You need to get that beauty finished today, remember?”

Sitting in an English lesson, Alice pulled her art notes from her bag. She jotted away, pretending to be taking notes from the lecturer, hoping to finish at least the written portion of her art project by today—the deadline. Well… technically the deadline had been this morning.“Alice?” Miss Henbury interrupted Alice’s furious scribbling.“Yes?” Alice asked, hoping she wasn’t about to be scolded for working on her art project during an English lesson.“Mr Yates wants to see you,” Miss Henbury revealed. “He’s in room 23a.”

Alice sat at the bar, nursing her second pint. She tipped the glass, poured the last few sips of warm, flat beer down her throat and asked for another.“Are you sure?” Joseph frowned at her. “What’s up with you today?”“I feel like drowning my sorrows,” she said, giving him a weak smile.“Oh, babes, maybe it’s a good thing he found someone else. You said yourself he was violent—”“But he was nice to me,” Alice whined.

The old park was on the outskirts of town, roughly an equal distance between his location and Jamie’s. Still, he ran the entire distance, not wanting Jamie to get there first and be forced to wait around, having no clue as to what was going on. Ste leaned on the old goalpost as he caught his breath. His lungs were on fire, probably because of the smoking, but all that realisation did was make him crave a cigarette. ‘I need one to calm my nerves,’ Ste told himself. With a shaking hand, Ste dropped the pack of cigarettes as he went to retrieve one. A couple fell into a puddle and weren’t rescuable, but he scooped up the dry ones and poked them back into the packet, popping one between his lips. The cigarette made him feel lightheaded but slightly less panicked as he awaited Jamie’s arrival. He saw Jamie in the distance, walking at a slow pace toward him. He looked so small and innocent, hugging his oversized hoodie around himself and wrapped in a pink scarf. Ste wanted to hug him, m

“I need you to do something for me,” Jamie said, staring into Ste’s eyes with an intensity he’d never seen before. “And I'm afraid you aren’t going to like it.”“What is it?” Ste asked, dreading to think what Jamie might ask of him.“I planted a little seed in Adam’s mind. He thinks he’s so smart but he’s as easy to manipulate as anyone else. You remember when I mentioned that teen gangster who let all of his mates shag his girlfriend?” Jamie said.‘No… he wouldn’t want that to happen to his own sister. Sur

Alice smiled at Joseph, trying to focus on what he was telling her.She couldn’t.All she could think about was Adam. He never replied to her message about meeting Dave. This was either because he didn’t care, or he was annoyed about it.‘Or seething with rage about it,’ Alice thought with a shiver of dread.“So… should I say yes?” Joseph asked.

Seeing them there, holding hands and staring deeply into each other’s eyes, Adam almost couldn’t believe it.It had to be a mistake.Surely.Adam realised he’s stopped walking only when Ste walked into him and almost tripped over.“Sorry,” Ste uttered in a panicked voice, even though they both knew the collision had been Adam’s fault.Realising he had no choi

Alice smiled to herself as put her phone down and got ready for school. She was still smiling as she brushed her hair and applied her lip gloss, happy with how she looked today.After practically floating down the stairs, Alice greeted her family in the kitchen.“Yay, panda-cakes,” Alice cried, seeing the pancakes. “Thanks, mum.”Alice poured syrup and blueberries onto her stack, then tried to eat the pile of food without messing up her makeup.“You’re cheerful this m

Adam held his phone, thumbs hovering over the screen.‘Should I message her?’ he wondered. Would it be weird? Or would she be happy to hear from him?Adam shrugged to himself.

Ste sat at the table, pretending he didn’t hear Alice pleading with her brother on his behalf.‘You can be the better person’… those words stung. He knew what she meant; that Jamie didn’t have to stoop to Ste’s level. Still… she was trying to do him a favour. He must really look pathetic.His reflection in the window confirmed this. He looked life ‘death warmed up’ as his granny would say.Ste still felt awkward enough as it was, being at Jamie’s house. Even dressed up in Jamie’s designer clothes—like a living Ken doll as Jamie pu

When Alice arrived at Adam’s gate, she almost turned around and walked away. He hadn’t invited her. He despised her, it seemed. Would he be angry about her showing up unannounced?She was mulling it over when she overheard a voice.“Please Adam, you have got to stop skipping classes. You know the soc’ is on my back. You managed to clean up the house for Christ’s sake… why can’t you just behave in school?”It was Mike.The smell of smoke wafted over the fe

Jamie plonked the shirt on the counter and coolly told the cashier he wanted to return it.The girl looked at him, swallowed, and muttered, “Erm, you can’t return it if you’ve worn it—”“The stitching is coming undone. I’ve worn it once. It’s shoddy,” Jamie told her. In truth, there was nothing wrong with the stitching aside from the portion he’d unpicked by hand. It hadn’t been easy either; the quality of the garment was, in fact, annoyingly high.The truth was, Jamie had spent the last of his allowance on clothes and left himself short. Now he c
