Chapter One

Alexis's POV

-5:30 A.M.-

Oh my goodness I just want to sleep. My neighbors were up all night last night blasting music. I got up and took a nice hot shower, then dried off and put on some lotion. I went to my closet in my Victoria's Secret black laced bra and panties to look for an outfit. I put on a pair of black knee-high, boots, a beige skirt that stops right above my knees and hugs to my every curve, and a black V-neck sweater that clung to me. I do my eyeliner and mascara and put on some black eye shadow, then my lip gloss. I take down my ponytail and let my micro braids come down to the middle of my back. I grab my keys, cell phone and purse, then lock the door behind me. I walk out my apartment building, get in my car, and drove to Starbucks. I get my coffee then go to the office I work in. I work in a music studio, I book all the stars that need to record here, and I take care of the interviews, and concerts here in New York. I walk inside and go into the studio; another thing I get to do here is record my own music. I like to write songs and I can sing.

The door opens and my boss comes in.

Tony: Alexis, meet Tokio Hotel, they'll be recording the new album in the studio.

Alexis: Ok!

Tokio Hotel: what's up?

Alexis: Hey! All right follow me.

I began to walk swaying my hips with every step I took. I could feel their eyes all on me. I heard Tom say something in German with his deep, sexy voice. I showed them to the studio.

Tom: Thanks, so uh-

Alexis: Bye Tom!

I closed the door and sat down on the overstuffed couch outside the studio. I took out my phone and began to text my best friend, Olivia. She's goes to art school in Paris.

TO: OLIVIA

FROM: ALEXIS

HEY GURL! WUT UP?

ME NUTTIN MUCH, JUS CHILLIN AT THE STUDIO, WITH TOKIO HOTEL.

NE WAYS R U COMING TO THE NYC FOR UR BREAK?

I closed my phone and sat it down. I decided to go into the studio. I opened the door and sat down on the couch in there. I pressed the button so I could listen to them practice.

"We have to go a 1000 oceans wide-"

Alexis: hello?

???: Hey it's me!

Alexis: Hey Olivia! What's up?

Olivia: Nothing, I'm good. I'm glad you like your new job. Oh and yes I'm coming for my break, I already have my bags packed. Are you picking me up from the airport?

Alexis: Yes! I can't wait!

Olivia: Me neither, but I have to go, bye!

Alexis: Bye!

I closed my phone and listened to the guys.

I just got off of work. Tomorrow my best friend in the world, Olivia, is coming to New York and is staying with me during her break. I had just got in my car when someone knocked on my window.

Alexis: What do you want Tom?

Tom: I want to see you outside of work.

Alexis: Club 40/40 tomorrow at 10:30 look for me.

I started my car and drove off. I know all about Mr. Tom Kaulitz, the play boy guitarist of Tokio Hotel. Mr. One Night Stand. I am not going to fall for him, I refuse to be his one night stand. I pulled up to my studio apartment. I open the door and am greeted by my Persian cat Minx. She has gray fur, and blue eyes. I pour some milk into her dark blue porcelain bowl, then pour some cat food into her light blue porcelain bowl. I push the button on my answering machine.

"You have 2 new messages. Message one: 'Hey Alexis it's me, Mom. I just called to see how you are doing, call when you get this.' End of message. Message two: 'Hey Alexis it's me Olivia I'm about to board my plane I'll see you in the morning ok, my plane lands at 10 A.M.' end of message."

I deleted my messages, then opened my fridge. I took out a bottle of red wine and the left over Chinese from last night. I sat down on my couch, turned on my TV to MTV, and ate my food. Monsoon by Tokio Hotel came on. I watched the video and loved it. After eating I cleaned my dishes, and took a shower. I washed my hair then got out wrapping the fluffy blue towel around me. My whole house is blue, which is my favorite color, but my room is red. I stepped into my bedroom and put on my red Victoria's Secret panties and bra, then put on some red short shorts and a white baby t-shirt that shows all of my stomach. I grab my phone and talked to my mom for 2 hours then went to bed.

-8:30 A.M.-

I got up and brushed my teeth and washed my face. I looked at my reflection. I have a chocolate complexion so of course that would mean I'm black. I have dark brown eyes, and full pink lips. I go into the kitchen and fill Minx's bowls before making myself a cup of coffee. I got to my closet and put on a pair of gold metallic looking leggings, some dark blue jean shorts, a black Tokio Hotel band t, and my black high top converse. I left my braids down then did my make up. Black eyeliner, gold eye shadow, and lip gloss. I did the finishing touches to my outfit, a gold choker, a bunch of bracelets and some rings. I grabbed my purse, my keys and cell phone, then headed out to my car and drove to the air port. I spent an hour going through security and waiting for the plane to land.

Olivia: Alexis!

Alexis: Olivia!

We hugged and then she stepped back to look at me.

Olivia: I love your outfit!

Alexis: I love yours too.

She wore some black leggings, a blue jean mini-skirt, a Tokio Hotel band t, and some converse.

We got all of her bags, carried them to my car then went to the mall.

Alexis: What's up with all the bags?

Olivia: I graduated early, so I'm moving in with you, you did always complain about wanting a roommate.

Alexis: Yay!

We walked into the mall and went to Hot Topic.

Olivia: Hi I was wondering if you were hiring and if you are may I please have an application?

???: Sure! My name is Rayne, I'm the manager, and sure.

She handed Olivia an application, Olivia put it her in her bag, and we looked around the store. We bought some band t-shirts , some jeans, skirts, and shorts, and some accessories. I went to the back of the store and looked through their posters. I found one of Tokio Hotel! Yay! I grabbed all the posters of Tokio Hotel that they had then went over to the CD rack. I grabbed their Scream CD then went to pay for all of my stuff. After shopping we went to the Gloria Jean's and got some iced coffees.

Tom: Well hallo there!

I'd know that voice from anywhere. I turned around and looked up into Tom' s beautiful light brown eyes.

Alexis: Hi Tom.

Tom: Playing hard to get? I like it!

Alexis: I'm sure you do.

I looked over to see Olivia talking to Bill. Lucky her, she likes the guy who doesn't have a reputation for being a man whore, but me no, I do!

Alexis: Look I have to go, like I said if you want to see me try looking for me at club 40/40 tonight at 10:30. Bye!

I grabbed Olivia's hand and we walked out to my car. I put in the Tokio Hotel CD and blasted it all the way to my apartment. We took everything inside. I showed Olivia to the guest room which would now be her room. It was the only room besides my bedroom that wasn't blue. It was purple and black. I helped her unpack.

Alexis: OK well get ready we're going clubbing ok?

Olivia: OK!

I left her room and went tom y bathroom. I took all the makeup off my face then redid it. More eyeliner, lip gloss, and this I had black eye shadow. I went into my room and sprayed my body down with some perfume from Victoria's Secret. I put on a little dress that was very short and clung to my every curve. I added a black belt, black leggings, and black high heels. I pulled my hair up into a bun and left a couple of braids down for tendrils. I put some money and my driver's license in my bra along with my lip gloss and cell phone.

I walked put of my room to see Olivia wearing some blue jean shorts, red leggings, a gold tube top, and gold high heels. Her hair was straight. We got into my car and drove around town before finally stopping at the club. We went inside and went up to the bar.

Alexis: Two red headed sluts!

The bartender made our drinks and I slipped him a ten dollar bill. I took a sip from my drink then turned around only to face Tom.

Tom: Hallo Alexis.

Alexis: Hello Tom.

Tom: do you want to dance?

Alexis: Sure.

I finished my drink then followed him to the dance floor.

Closer by Ne-Yo comes on so I start to grind on Tom. I turned to face him. He wraps his arms around my waist then slides them down to my butt. We kept dancing then he tried to kiss me. I moved my head. He then whispered in my ear.

Tom: Let's leave and go back to my hotel room, so I can show you some things.

I pushed him off me.

Alexis: I know all about you Mr. One Night Stand Kaulitz! And I am not going to be another one of your one-night stand whores. I walked away from him and went over to the bar. Olivia and Bill were dancing.

Alexis: can I get a red headed slut, an ultimate Hawaiian volcano, and a Lynchburg lemonade?

The bartender made my drinks then handed them to me. I went to pull out $15 but Tom came up and handed him a 20.

Tom: Keep the change.

I looked at him, rolled my eyes, and began to drink.

Tom: Look I'm sorry-

Alexis: Sure you are!

Tom: Look I'm trying to apologize!

Alexis: Well don't! I've been hurt too much by people like you, so you're just wasting your time.

Tom: People like me?

Alexis: Yes people like you, guys who sleep with girls and then leave after they get what they want! I'm sick of it and I'm not falling for it!

I got up leaving my drinks behind and walked out to the dance floor.

Alexis: Olivia, I'm going home ok?

Olivia: Do you want me to come with you?

Alexis: No you have fun ok. Do you have money for a cab?

Bill: I'll make sure she gets home.

Alexis: Thanks Bill.

I gave Olivia a hug then went out to my car. I drove home crying. I really like Tom, but I've been hurt too much by guys just like him, it's better if I do this. Don't let them get close and they can't hurt you. I park in front of my apartment building then get out. I walk inside, refill Minx's bowls then change into my red short shorts and white baby t. I take off my makeup then go into my kitchen. I grab a bottle of red wine and a red wine glass then go to my living room. I light the fire place the got to my stereo and turn it on. I put it an oldies CD and At Last by Etta James comes on. I hear a knock at my door. I set down my wine glass and answer the door. There stood Tom, drunk as all get out. He stumbles forward. I hold to him so he doesn't fall. I bring him inside and sit him down on the couch. I go into the kitchen and get a glass of water and some aspirin.

Alexis: Here.

Tom takes the water and the aspirin.

Alexis: What are you doing here?

Tom: I came to talk to you.

Alexis: Tom-

Tom: Let me finish. I'm sorry I was jerk to you at the club. But why did you push me away even when I tried to just talk to you at the bar?

Alexis: Like I said I have been hurt too many times by guys who were players. They slept with me and left me, or they would abuse me until I left them. So I pushed you away because you were a player. If I don't let them get close then they can't hurt me.

Tom: You don't believe that do you?

Alexis: I live by that.

Tom: That's stupid, because you're still getting hurt only by yourself.

Tom was right I was hurting my self.

Tom: Look I can't believe I'm saying this but let's get to know each other, take it slow?

Alexis: I'd like that.

He smiled then took my glass of wine and drank it.

Tom: I am so tired, I think I should go.

He tried to get up but ended up crashing back down onto the couch.

Alexis: How about you just stay here on my couch?

Tom: OK.

I turned off the stereo and took the wine and the glass to the kitchen. I got a blanket from the closet and covered him up. I turned out the lights and went to my room.
