Since I couldn't go online, and I was totally bored and on a Palex high, I decided to write this that was in my head. I think it's cute!

Enjoy the Palex good-ness!

Edit: Since there's hype to turn this into a chapter story, that's just what i'll do! I just have to find time in between school to get writing. So stay tuned! P.s. Yes the title is a song from The Darkness. Hehe.

I Believe In A Thing Called Love

Chapter One: Presents In The Bathroom

"For your assignments, you are to include particular representations of the relationships and identities of individuals, groups, times and places suggested to you by your reading of the poem and the life and times of the poet. Everyone got that? Paige?" Mr. Williams looked directly at Paige Michalchuk, who was currently staring off into space in a daydream.

"Earth to Paige." He waved his hand before slamming his book down on her desk, which made her jump. "Would be nice if you could pay attention in my class."

"Umm…right, sorry Mr. Williams." She shook her head and cursed mentally, trying desperately to concentrate on the poetry book but failing miserably. A certain raven-haired beauty was currently stuck in her head and was unable to leave. Not that Paige wanted her to leave.

It was Alex and Paige's one-month anniversary, and Paige couldn't get her girlfriend out of her mind. It didn't help that the previous night, Alex had paid her an extra special visit at two in the morning, sneaking through Paige's window and greeting her with a passionate kiss on the lips.

And while that was all well and good, her parents almost caught the two when Alex fell asleep in Paige's arms and woke up just as Mrs. Michalchuk announced breakfast. Alex had snuck out the window once again, and Paige tiptoed downstairs extremely cheery and pleased with herself, which of course made Dylan, her brother, shower her with questions.

Paige came out to him and confessed she had been dating Alex for the past month. He was shocked at first, because he couldn't quite picture his sister well…dating a girl. He quickly got over it, and the two conversed happily over breakfast.

As Paige kept staring off into space, reminiscing about the previous night, Hazel noticed her friend's behaviour and tapped her on the shoulder.

"What is up with you?" She whispered, "It's not like you to not pay attention in English."

"Hun, I…" Paige didn't get to finish the sentence due to her cell phone vibrating in her pocket. "I'm fine." She turned back around and pulled it out, concealing it in front of the stack of poetry books from Mr. Williams.

She opened the text message. Naturally, it was from Alex.

Bathroom. 10 minutes. Have a special present for you.

Love Alex xox

Paige couldn't cover up the huge grin that currently cracked onto her face. She promptly shoved her cell back in her pocket and tried to concentrate on her work, but failed yet again. Finally giving up, she raised her hand, waving it in the air so Mr. Williams would notice.

"Sir! Sir! Can I please use the bathroom?"

"Paige, you haven't been paying attention this whole lesson, you really think I'm going to let…"

"Sir! Unless you want to see my lunch all over the floor, I suggest you let me go." She covered her mouth with her hand and Mr. Williams groaned before finally letting her go.

Paige got up and bolted out of the room with her hand over her mouth, running until she was out of sight and around the corner. She then slowed down to a brisk walk, making her way to the bathroom, smiling with anticipation.

She couldn't wait to see Alex. It hadn't even been an hour since they said goodbye at the end of lunch, but Paige was impatient.

She pushed the door open and entered the bathroom, gritting her teeth as she spotted another girl applying lip-gloss at the mirror. Hurry up and get lost you dirty little tramp…oh god, that was so mean. Argh! She forced a smile at the girl, who looked at her through the mirror before finishing up and leaving Paige alone in the bathroom. She walked up to the sink and washed her hands. Why? She didn't know. Possibly something to do while waiting for Alex.

She was staring off into space again and didn't notice the door opening and Alex walk in.

"Baby, you really shouldn't stare at yourself in the mirror all the time. It's not very flattering." Alex joked, making Paige jump with fright.

"Oh god, you scared the shit out of me." She clutched at her chest, which made Alex laugh.

"I didn't know you've taken up cursing."

Paige rolled her eyes and stepped closer to her girlfriend. "You know I've learned from the best. Now come on, where's my present?"

"You are the demanding one, aren't you?" Alex closed the space between them and put a hand on Paige's hip. "Very high maintenance. Don't know why I keep you around."

"Because you love me, that's why." Paige batted her eyelashes briefly before Alex rolled her eyes.

"Okay, okay, enough of that crap. You're going to make me barf. Right, you want your present?"

Paige nodded.

"Okay, here you go." She leaned forwards and gently captured Paige's lips, making her squeak slightly with surprise and delight. It didn't take her long to sink into the kiss, her hands cupping both of Alex's cheeks affectionately.

Alex pulled her closer, wrapping her arms around her waist securely. Eventually, Paige pulled away for air. "I think I need another present." She murmured.

Alex laughed and pushed her backwards to the far wall. She pressed her body up against Paige, whose eyes were wide.

"As you wish." She whispered huskily before she began kissing a path up her trembling girlfriend's neck. The atmosphere, and the prospect of the two getting caught at anytime thrilled Alex to no end. She attacked Paige's mouth again, sucking on her bottom lip before sliding her tongue inside and exploring her mouth. Paige unconsciously started rocking her hips, groaning into Alex's mouth fiercely as she cupped the back of her head.

Alex was suddenly aware of their surroundings and pushed away from Paige's body, though her lips still ravished hers with force. She knew they couldn't get too carried away. Not yet. It was far too soon.

Suddenly, the door opened and Marco's voice sounded. "Paige, Paige are you in here?" He poked his head through and gasped at the two girls pressed up against the wall, "Oh my god!"

They had finally stopped sucking faces and now stared dumbstruck at their friend in the doorway. Alex smirked and leaned casually against the wall beside Paige. "She had, like, something stuck in her teeth and I was helping her get it out."

Marco shook his head. "You guys are an item? Whoa…oh my god I knew it! Whoa! Whoa whoa whoa! Hang on, why didn't you tell me?"

"Marco, we wanted to tell you, but we were going to wait until things seemed more official. Which…they are, now. So we were going to tell you after school." Paige rubbed the bridge of her nose.

"So when did all this happen? You gotta fill me in on everything." He walked into the bathroom and stood in front of the couple.

"Umm…you remember the after party at the premier?" Alex asked, tousling her hair to try and get it back to a respectable state. She noticed a piece of hair over Paige's eye and brushed it aside. Paige smiled gratefully and then looked back to Marco.

"Yeah…wait, you guys hooked up then?"

"Well…kind of. See, we started dancing and things just sorta happened. I took Paige back to my place but then I got into a fight with my mom's boyfriend. So then we ran off to her place and then…"

Paige grinned. "And then Alex confessed her undying love for me."

Alex rolled her eyes good-naturedly. "I thought I was telling the story?"

"I'm sorry, go on."

"Anyways, we ran off to her place and Paige and I were talking in her room. I don't really know what made me do it…but I kissed her. I'm so glad I did, though, even though things were a bit rocky at first." She looked at Paige and she smiled and kissed her cheek.

"Wow…so you guys have been going out ever since? How could I have been so blind…" He shook his head in disbelief that he didn't pick up on it sooner.

"We just didn't want anyone to know until we figured a few things out. We wanted to see if things turned serious…and they have." Paige looked at her girlfriend lovingly.

"Yeah, I can't keep this girl away from me." She sighed over-dramatically and Paige playfully smacked her arm. "Oh yeah, right, that isn't what you said last night, miss 'I've missed you so much, I can't stand to be apart from you any longer!'."

Marco snorted. "Sorry to burst this love bubble, but Mr. Williams sent me to see if you were okay Paige. So you better come back with me. And Alex, you better get back to class."

"Right." Alex rolled her eyes and turned back to Paige. "I'll see you after school, 'kay baby?"

Paige nodded and pulled her in for a hug before she joined Marco and walked to the door, Alex following behind them, holding tightly onto to Paige's hand until they were out of the bathroom.

"By the way guys, I'm really, really happy for you both." Marco touched both of their shoulders warmly.

"Thanks, Marco." The girls lunged at him and pulled him into a big group hug.

Soooo what did you think?
