Chapter Text
" i'm headed straight for the floor
the alcohol's served it's tour
and it's headed straight for my skin
leaving me daft and dim "
Alex's smile nearly toppled George off his chair, he'd seen Alex smile so much.
So why did he always get flustered?
Interrupting his thoughts, Lando's voice rang out,
"Georgeeeee, Aleeeeex!"
Oscar sighed, appearing behind him,
"I told you to control the alcohol, Lan."
"Oscahhhhh!"
Alex laughed, the disco lights reflecting on his glass onto his face.
"Have fun with hung over Lando tommorrow, then."
Oscar rolled his eyes and dragged Lando home.
George tried to muster a laugh, but his eyes fixed on Alex.
Dammit, why did he look extra hot today, his shirt was unbuttoned to his chest. The white of his shirt contrasted his olive skin.
As his best friend, George knew it was very un - Alex to dress that way.
"How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?"

Days flew by, Alex never realized.
And it hurt.
Like he wrapped thorns around George's heart.
" I'll love you 'til the day that I die
'Til the day that I die
'Til the light leaves my eyes
'Til the day that I die "
His eyes filled with tears as he wrote his final letter.
He wouldn't let them out, no, he wouldn't.
But they did.
Like a dam breaking, so did he.
Tears fell one after another.
How could Alex not realize even after more than a decade?
His hopes shattered as he grabbed his duvet and hung it on the windowsill.
His voice came out hoarsely,
" i love you alex, i love you, i love you, i love you "
He repeated those words like a chant as if alex would appear out of the air.
He breathed his final breath.
With Alex in his mind.
"This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know? "
