Sky nodded at Alex's question. A faint smile curled at the corners of his lips. He wanted t hangout with him, even after all of that. It was surprising, but Skylar wasn't going to complain. "C'mon let's go back to my place. Fuck this shit hole." Skylar said as he got up. He swung his bag over his shoulder, grabbed his water bottle and tucked in his chair sloppily. He threw Alex a glance before walking towards the classroom door. He was excited to be leaving the school, especially with Alex. Opening his water bottle, he took another big sip before closing it again. Walking down the hall, he made his way to the front doors, glancing over his shoulder every now and then to make sure Alex was there.

Perhaps leaving wasn't the smartest idea, considering his parents were likely to find out... but then, if he kept his grades up, they probably wouldn't care too much if he skipped classes for a day, especially after last night. Or at least that's what he convinced himself as he watched Skylar stand and leave the room. He remained seated for only a moment longer before he laughed softly to himself and moved to get up from his desk. Grabbing his bag, he slipped it over his shoulder and quickly moved to slip out of the classroom. His eyes were quick to find Skylar heading down the hallway before he was jogging to catch up to him. Once at his side, he slowed to a walk and let out a soft sigh. "I don't think I've ever ditched a whole day of school before." He said as he looked over at Skylar, a soft laugh escaping him as he did so. (Sorry this is so short. >.>)

Sky smiled softly, glancing over at Alex. "Aw it's your first time." Sky playfully teased. He let out a soft chuckle as he smirked at Alex. Skylar only smiled even more. It was fun to tease Alex, Sky really enjoyed it. Sky continued to walk, absentmindedly going the way home. Despite Sky's rough night, and killer hangover, he still wanted to spend time with Alex. "I will warn you, I am very hungover." Skylar spoke after a long moment of silence. He kept his eyes forward as he spoke, only looking towards Alex once he finished. (AGH sorry it's so short)

Alex tossed Skylar a playful glare at that before smirking and shaking his head. "Yes, well... I find I've been experiencing a lot of firsts since we've met." He responded with a soft chuckle. And that was true. His first kiss with a guy, his first real relationship, and now his first time skipping school. When Sky said that he was very hungover, Alex hummed softly before giving a nod. "I kind of figured you would be... how much did you have to drink yesterday anyway?" He asked. He wasn't angry, or at least his tone didn't portray any irritation or anger, just genuine curiosity. As he continued walking alongside Sky, he looked forward when they reached the school doors and began making their way towards Skylar's place. Once on the sidewalk, he looked back at him. (It's okay. My post is short as well. Sorry... >.>)

Sky chuckled at Alex's response, but it also made him frown a bit. Did it mean that Sky was a bad influence on Alex, if many things they did together were his first. Most of the things were good in Sky's eyes, the night at the party and today were not. Sky shrugged his shoulders in response to Alex's question. "You don't wanna know." Sky said, frowning a bit. He felt bad, especially since he was drinking again. Clenching his jaw slightly, he kept his gaze forward. "It was a lot." Sky said quietly after a moment. (Sorry I'm on my phone)

Perhaps in the view of Alex's parents, Skylar was a bad influence. They'd think he was a terrible one, actually, corrupting him by having him do all these things that were typically so out of character for him. But as far as Alex was concerned... he was anything but. Sure, there were a few things that probably hadn't been the best, but there were others that he'd hold onto. For instance, his first real kiss, first real date, first real relationship, and Skylar had been the first guy to ever say he loved him. None of those things Alex would ever say had been based on bad choices and terrible influences. When he heard Skylar's answer, he hummed softly. He'd figured as much. He fell quiet then and looked down. "About last night..." He started after a long moment of silence. Shifting his bag on his shoulder, he drew in a breath and glanced toward him. "I'm sorry... You didn't deserve to hear what my father said... or to be kicked out like that..." He finished, his voice quiet. (No worries. ^^)

Skylar continued to stare ahead of him, seeing his house come into view. He slightly frowned. "Nah it's okay, lowkey deserved to be kicked out." Sky replied, shrugging it off. He was rude and disrespectful. It was wrong for his father to say what he did, but Sky didn't need to reply back in a rude way. He also didn't need to show up drunk. Walking up to the front door, he opened it. Walking in, he left the door open for Alex as he began to take off his shoes. Grabbing his water bottle from his bag, he dropped his bag at the door. Looking at Alex, he waited for a moment before going to his room.

Alex listened to the response that Skylar gave him and nodded faintly. A part of him wanted to disagree, but he didn't want to argue. Honestly, he wanted to forget yesterday had happened at all. So, he looked forward and toward Sky's house when it came into view. He didn't attempt to say anything more as he followed him to the front door and then inside the house. Slipping his shoes off at the door and then sliding his bag from his shoulder, he let out a soft sigh. It was strange, he thought as he looked up and watched Skylar head for his room, that he wasn't at all terrified about the repercussions of what he was doing. Shouldn't he be more concerned about what his parents might say or do after learning that he'd ditched an entire day of school? Yet he didn't feel anything but a numbness at the idea; maybe it was a result of the shock from last night? Regardless, he wasn't as fearful of their reactions as he might have been any other time. Realizing that he had been standing still in front of the doorway, he shook his head and then started making his way towards Skylar's room.

Once Skylar had made his way to his bedroom, he threw a glance towards his bathroom. Walking further into his room, he got a better look at the bathroom. He had to make sure it was clean, and it was. Letting out a sigh, he made his way to his bed. Sitting down, he looked towards his door, waiting to see Alex. He wasnt right behind him, but he'd appear in the door shortly. Unscrewing his water bottle cap, he took a small sip before chugging the rest of his concoction. He then screwed the cap back on before throwing it towards his garbage can. He missed, but he didn't care. He was already feeling the effects of the alcohol, but it'd take a bit for the last of it to hit. It wasn't nearly as much to get him wasted like last night, but it was enough to get him a bit drunk. Looking back towards the door, his eyes met with Alex's. He let out a small smile before leaning back on his hands.

Alex headed down the hallway and pushed Skylar's door open a little further when he reached it and stepped into the room. His blue gaze was quick to find Skylar sitting on the bed, and upon seeing the smile, he returned it with one of his own. Alex was still at the doorway for only a moment before he stepped into the room, and then, with the familiarity of someone who was familiar and comfortable with the room, he moved over to the bed. Sitting down on the edge of the bed with a soft sigh, he glanced over at Skylar before he moved to lie back. His eyes drifted toward the ceiling for a second before they returned to Skylar, watching him with a faint smile still on his lips. Already, the tension of the day was leaving him, and he was feeling far more comfortable and at ease than he had been since last night. He was certain that it was due to the fact that he felt safe here with Skylar and that he was away from the prying and scrutinizing eyes of his family and peers. "Is there anything you want to do?" He asked after a long moment of silence before he was moving to sit up, his gaze not leaving Skylars as he did so. ((Sorry this is so short. >.>)) Edited at July 28, 2025 11:39 PM by Outlander
