"No please, please don't shoot" Sonny begs, I take a deep breath and close my eyes, not wanting to even think about what I knew what was to come. I had to be strong, I had to save her. But I felt so hopeless.. I couldn't even wipe away her tears, the masked guy that held us from seeing his face, but I knew what it held, anger. I slowly opened my eyes and took in his appearance one last time. I knew those hands, those eyes, his built body. I knew him. " I Love you sonny" I say my voice straining to keep from sobbing.

"BANG! BANG! BANG!"

For a moment the world stopped as if it was giving a chance to enjoy this moment, to enjoy each other as if it was our last, and it was... because it was our new beginning


1 Year earlier

"Alexandra Margarita Russo, You get your butt up right now! You promised you would change your habits and we let you keep your magic, so unless-"

I jump out of bed and yell "I'm up relax yo'self woman!" I laugh and started getting ready, after a shower and I brushed my teeth I throw on a white V-neck shirt with my letterman jacket on and some skinny jeans. I descend downstairs.

"Mami, Where is my car keys I can't find it" I say as I look in the fridge to look for something to eat

"Alex, How about looking in the key tray instead of the fridge" I take a bite of a doughnut and smile with the doughnut in my mouth

" Right, Thanks mami adios" I kiss her cheek and head for the door

" And Alex " I turn toward her " Be good, I don't want no more heartbroken girls coming to my house and tearing down my door again" I smirked and nodded, then went on my way to school, as soon as I entered the doors I saw Justin talking to Juliet and I smacked his head making him hit it on his locker and winked at Juliet she bit her lip and twirled her hair as I walked pass, forgetting Justin and his bloody nose. It was always like this, me flirting with every girlfriend he had just to get under his skin. I walked to my locker and grabbed my backpack that I left in their since sophomore year.

"Yo, Alex!" My friend Nate greets me. I smile at him softly and give him our usual handshakes and turn to his girlfriend of a year, I smile lightly at her and she gives me a shy smile. I chuckle at her actions, you would think by now Miley would stop being her shy self after spending every moment at school with me, Nate and the rest of the football team. Yeah you heard right, the lazy Alex Russo is in football and I didn't even use magic to get on the team. Okay maybe a little, but hey it was for a good cause...maybe.

"So love birds what's the plans? Picking on the freshman? OH! even better how about we make Justin's life a living hell for his senior year?" I smirk as plans start to develop in my head. But then again my plans always get ruined so I'm just gonna go with the flow. I eye the two curiously and as soon as Nate opens his mouth..

"Alexandra Russo" I groan and put on a fake smile for even though we both know its fake.

"What are you doing here so early? its 9:30 in the morning class started an hour and thirty minutes ago and we both know u don't come to class till 1 in the afternoon" I laugh, and mentally pretend to wipe a tear from my eyes as if it was so funny how he knew me so much.

"Well if you must know, I decided to come to school early because 'I believe that children are our future, and we must teach them well to let them lead the way and show them all the beauty they possess inside', and what way to do that then to go to school" Nate and Miley laughing at my answer because I quoted the goddess herself Whitney Houston The Greatest Love of All. Then I heard a soft chuckle coming from behind my big buddy. I maneuver my way around him and look at the shorter girl, breathtaking.. She was wearing a yellow sundress with a half top leather jacket. I smile and stick out my hand.

"Alex Russo what's your name beautiful?" she smiled at me softly

"Sonny Monroe" She said and I smirked.

"Well Monroe I just gotta say-",

"Save it Romeo" Laritate says "She is way out of your league "I looked at him with a raised eyebrow and pull him to the other side of the lockers

", You be ruining my game, I'll be good I promise, I promised my parents I was gonna change, and what better way than to show a new student around? Here let me take that from you" I say grabbing the girls schedule from his hands

"Now you go on cowboy and I'll make sure she gets settled in" I smile at him and walk towards Sonny leaving a confused Laritate.

"So Sonny, How about I show you around instead of Yankee doodle over there?" I smile and grab my bag closing my locker and throwing my arm around her shoulder then waved at Miles and Nate I then take a look at her schedule and headed off to AP English- Whoa wait AP? All play English I think I need to change my classes to all AP like hers hell..

We make our way through the hall and till I find room A102, I hold the door open for her and she sends a shy smile my way before entering the door, as soon I enter the door I hear a bunch of "hey Alex" or "sup Alex"

"Well Miss. Russo, You are certainly not in this class, so what brings you here" Says the blonde teacher

"Hey Kathleen, What's up? How yah been?" I smile innocently at her

"Save the act Alex and its Mrs. Jacobs to you, Now how may I help you?" She says with a raised eyebrow

"I was just checking to see if Monroe over there got settled in fine, wouldn't want her to feel uncomfortable it being her first day and all" I smirk "Well then I better get going later Kathleen, See yah in P.E. Monroe" I wave at the teacher and wink at Sonny then head off to English. Walking down the hall I see a new kid.

"Hey yo, You! What's up? Need help?" I ask walking towards him

"Uh-uhm" He stutters and his eyes look me up and down

"Aye stutters my eyes are up here, Gosh losers.." I turn and leave him there heading to A106. As I reach the door I open it and take a seat in the way back putting my ear phones in my ear and hit play on my iPod.

Before the song hits the chorus someone plus the earphones out from my ear. "Hey what'd you do that for you Jackas- hey Mr. Laritate you teaching now?" I question hoping he didn't hear my outburst. Who am I kidding people from china heard that.

"Russo, I think you are the first person ever in history to get detention on the first day of school two years straight. Now sit back down, no music and you listen to me" I roll my eyes and sit down

"Psst Alex" I turn to my right where the voice came from and see Jake kicker on the football team.

"Sup Jake" I give him a lil hand-clap shake. (Yeah you know what I don't know what it's called, come at me bro!)

"Party this Friday, cute girls, alcohol. You in?" He questions with a hopeful look in his eyes

"You be kidding me? I'm always down, Count me in bro." I say and pull out a notebook from my bag and start doodling in it.
