Stale Smoke In A Running Circle4

He skips his bus stop surely, as we go past King’s Cross and Charring, as he just looks into the window and my mouth has a very foul taste which I can’t get rid off, he nervously suggests to get out and buy some chewing gum in a store, desperately trying to achieve time, but I don’t budge.

It’s my bus stop and as I stand up Alex grabs my hand and holds it, looking past me, but he’s not drunk, he’s drunk with his own thoughts, drowning, so I take him by the wrist and I pull him out along with me and the bus drives off, as we both go rather deep into the neighborhood, Alex following me silently, keeping his wrist at bay in case I want it and he’ll feel me again.

I stop and I quickly glance at him.

I walk in the door, as Alex waits outside and I see Jamie and I feel Alex behind me.

“Come in, Alex.” And I don’t say anything to Jamie, shuffling past him, grabbing Alex by that suggested wrist and we just head inside, the living room stares at us in awe and I just press my head against the old couch and Jamie says nothing neither does Alex.

“Alex is going to stay here for a while.” I say, looking up, wondering how much smoke as gathered here over the years. And Alex just looks around, most likely thinking if he’ll fit into my hoodies and I just look at Jamie with his glass of tap water, he drains it and leaves the apartment, maybe expects me to follow him but I don’t, instead I try savoring the taste in my mouth and I head into the kitchen opening the drawers and taking an apple and throwing half to Alex after I split it open with a knife.

I look at the floor and I start crying to which Alex hugs me, but doesn’t say anything, most likely just to hold me longer and I press my head against his shoulder, feeling the fabric and wanting to sleep so that when I wake up everything will be as granted with Jamie gone.
