Alex lay on the couch in her apartment, plucking her bass' strings randomly. Ellie sat at her feet, reading a magazine. Jay, Sean, Nick (Alex's apartment mate), and Amber (Alex's other apartment mate) sat around playing euchre.

I can't remember why we fell apart
From something that was so meant to be, yeah
Forever was the promise in our hearts
Now, more and more I wonder where you are

"Hey guys!" said Brie, Alex's girlfriend.

"Hey!" said the others. Alex was the only one who didn't respond. She just kept playing her bass.

"Lexi, are you OK?"

"Huh?" Alex stopped playing and came out of her thoughts.

"I was just wondering if you were OK."

"Oh, I'm fine. Just thinking. Why?"

"It's just you've been distant a lot lately.

"I'm fine." Alex insisted.

"OK. Well, I'm gonna change." Brie said. She still was curious.

"OK." Brie walked over to Alex and kissed her. She then walked into Alex's room. Alex sighed.

"Paige again?" Ellie asked.

"What?" Alex asked. She feigned confusion.

"Paige? Are you thinking about her?" Sean asked. Alex scoffed.

"Are you kidding me? Please. I'm so not thinking about her."

Chorus
Do I ever cross your mind, anytime
Do you ever wake up reaching out for me
Do I ever cross your mind anytime
I miss you

"Really? Because you always get distant and zone out during the holidays." Nick said.

"No I don't."

"Yeah, you do." Amber said. Alex, Jay, and Sean had met Amber and Nick at a street race one night over the summer and had been friends ever since.

"Yeah, you even zoned on St. Patrick's Day. I doubt they let her out of school that day." Jay said.

"I'm sure she's here for spring break." Ellie said.

"Why do you guys think I'm hung up on her? I have a girlfriend." Alex said.

"Oh, please. That proves nothing." Amber said.

"The way you guys describe this chick she must be hot." Nick said.

Still have your picture in a frame
Hear your footsteps down the hall
I swear I hear your voice, driving me insane
How I wish that you would call
To say

Chorus
Do I ever cross your mind, anytime
Do you ever wake up reaching out for me
Do I ever cross your mind anytime
I miss you

"Ask Lex." Sean said, looking at his cards.

"Well is she?" Alex didn't answer.

"Hot enough to make Lexi go lez." Jay said. Nick and Amber's eyes widened.

"Alex, Paige was your first girlfriend?" Amber asked. Alex nodded slightly. Nick chuckled.

"I gotta meet her now." Nick said.

(No more) loneliness and heartache
(No more) crying myself to sleep
(Don't want more) wondering about tomorrow
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me, oh

Chorus
Do I ever cross your mind, anytime
Do you ever wake up reaching out for me
Do I ever cross your mind anytime
I miss you

"You know what? I'm hungry. I'm going to The Dot. Anyone else want something?" Alex said, putting away her bass and putting on her blue and white Adidas. No one could deny she had the best shoe collection ever.

"Uh, I'll take a coffee. You know how I like it." Ellie said, going back to her magazine.

"Black like your soul." Alex chuckled. That's what Paige said, Ellie thought.

"I'll take a slice of triple fudge cake." Nick said.

"You know what? Just buy a whole one." Amber said, pulling money out of her pocket.

"No, my treat." Alex said.

"Great. I want a cheeseburger and a chocolate bar." Jay said.

"Eww." everyone said.

"I'm not gonna eat 'em together."

"Well, I'm gonna have chili cheese fries." Sean said.

"OK. I'll be back." Alex said, grabbing her jacket and wallet.

Chorus
Do I ever cross your mind, anytime
Do you ever wake up reaching out for me
Do I ever cross your mind anytime
I miss you
