Ximun + Alli [i want to, but i can't pretend...]

[shay]

" ...that i don't need to be by your side again."

Alex allowed herself to be tugged along. This way way too much. She took three long pulls from the flask, took a breath, then took another. Things were twisting and spinning, but Xi was there. His hand was steady, as always, and it was guiding her along. Not a little girl anymore? This was true.. But wouldn't he still take care of her? Yeah, of course. Of course Xi would. She smiled, as all the alcohol really began to hit her. He loved her? But.. This was like her best dream come true. He was the big brother she never had, without the creepy family part of things.
Alli actually lost track of where they were. Did they just go up a set of stairs? Oh well, who cared. At least these jeans looked good on her. But this sweater was warm, warm, warm!
He said he loved her. She knew she loved him. But what was going on? He loved Lily? Since when?
Everything spun.
He.. loved.. Potter. She could deal with him thinking he liked her, dating her even. But he loved her? That bitch didn't deserve him. Just because her family is famous, isn't it. She was so fucked. Young and fucked. She was not original and cute, like she thought she was. Hell no! She was annoying and stupid and immature and so did not deserve Xi. No one did. But if HE thought ALEX deserved him? She wouldn't inform him otherwise.
Where on earth were they going? She had no idea. [/center][/size]

We need a place to be alone.
The large mahogany doors appeared, and Ximun pushed them open. He dragged Alexis with him, and slammed the door shut. He held on to both of Alexis' hands and sighed. "Alli. I love you. Don't ever think that I don't love you, because I do. "He said looking into her eyes. "Lily is young, she's got potential to be a fine young woman, but that's the thing. She's a little girl." XImun told her.

"Listen, if you want to be with me, then I want to be with you. I don't want to pressure you into something that you don't want." He told her.

[shay]

He loves me... He loves me? He loves me!
Xi was so forward with everything, it was all hitting her so fast. His hands were big around hers, solid, sure. Exactly what she wanted to hear was coming from his mouth. And the best part was that this wasn't just another dream.
"You love me... But you always have. As.. your sister slash best friend. But you love me love me." It made sense to her drunken head. He loved her, not just loved her. Loved.
"Oh, but I do want that. Really bad." Through all the spinning and confusion, she could still look up and smile at him, and give his hand a squeeze before dropping it. She looped her arms around his neck, and pulled herself closer, still keeping eye contact.
"But you know this is what I want... You wouldn't have brought me here if you didn't know that." They were close now, bodies pressed against each other, faces getting closer every second. How long had she wanted this? So what if she was 'that girl' for Lily Potter. She would steal his boyfriend, and the little fame-whore would realize daddy's fame can't get her everything. Sometimes, the women who work the hardest are going to win.

"Yeah well that's what I've always told you, Allie.That's not what I've felt." Ximun said, his face a millimeter away from hers. "I love you Alexis."He said, his lips close to hers.

"You'll have to tell me what you want. I'm not telepathic you know." Ximun said smirking.

[shay]

Alexis smiled, watching his lips draw close to hers,
"I want to kiss you." And she did. She ran one hand through his hair, keeping the other on the back of his neck.
It was so sweet, tasting the forbidden fruit.
It all made sense. He was with Lily. He didn't want Lily. He wanted her. She wanted him. They were together, now, kinda. Kissing him felt so right, their bodies fit together perfectly, their lips brushed so softly, with emotion. It was all how it was supposed to be. Things would be like this forever... right?
Push the thought away, Alli.
And she did. Her drunk mind listened so much better than her sober one. She didn't think about the morning, she just thought about her and Xi, here and now. And how everything was supposed to be. Like this.

Ximun's lips touched Alexis', and he felt a surge of love run through him like an electrical current. He wrapped his arms around her, his hands rubbing her lower back.
Alexis' kiss tasted like the sweetest possible candy to him.
He could taste the firewhiskey that had soaked into her lips.
This is how he wanted it to be. Just the two of them, alone, and snogging the hell out of each other.

After a few extremely long minutes, Ximun finally pulled away from Alexis. "So, all you wanted to do in here was snog each other? We could have done that anywhere, love." Ximun said smirking at her.

[shay]

She smiled and shrugged,
"I don't want anyone mentioning this to Lily, before you guys.. You know." She kissed him again, lightly, and pulled back. Him holding her was so natural, why hadn't they figured this out before? Maybe the whole word should just always be drunk! She laughed out loud at this concept.
Okay, okay... Bad idea.

[Jarrod]

Ximun shrugged.
"As far as I'm concerned, the little fame whore is on her own from now on. I won't mention anything to her about us, I promise baby." He said. kissing her drunken lips again.
"And we, Alexis and Ximun Gates are together. For life." He said, pressing his lips to her forehead.

[shay]

Alexis couldn't help it. She absolutely melted in his arms. All these years, being his best friend. A few short months as his girlfriend. Now, again, he was back: In the way she wanted him to be. As hers.
Did he really mean it about Lily? It was music to Alex's ears. Here she was, the happiest girl on earth. With his soft kiss lingering on her forehead, she could have flown... Without a broom, even.

[Jarrod]

Ximun smiled and kissed Alex passionately again. He pulled away after a few minutes. "I love you. So damn much you don't even realize it..." He said smiling at her.

"So, it's been how long since we've done] anything?" He asked, not remembering the last time they did things together.

[shay]

All Alli could manage without bursting into tears of joy was smile and nod, as he told her he loved her. It was sincere. It was. It had to be. Xi wasn't a very good liar. Or perhaps he just wasn't very good at lying to her. Either way, Alexis was sure that what he was saying, he honestly believed.
"Last time we did anything? Before Lily." She shrugged. It was true. Attentionwhore/famerat/gloryskank stole him away from her. Lately, she had been measuring time based on the periods of their love lives. If that made sense anywhere but in her head.
Everything was spinning again and she stagger, noticeably.
"Uh, Xi? Can we like..." Wobble wobble. "... sit down or something? Or can you make everything stop spinning?"
