Chapter 2- And so it begins
Lexi's P.O.V
*Flash back Dream*
3...2...1. this was the moment I've been waiting for as I closed my eyes and started leaning towards James. This would be our first kiss as a couple, but just as we were about to kiss I got hit in the head by a Frisbee. Kendall and Jo ran over to where James and I were in Palm Woods Park. As Kendall retrieved his Frisbee I gave him my "you better get out of here before I get freight train after you" look and Kendall ran away as fast as he could. But lucky for him I don't bruise easily because then he would be really in trouble.
Later That same day James and I were alone in apartment 2J. I had just come back from my dance lesson with Mr.X. This defiantly had to be the right moment. I closed my eyes as James placed a piece of my hair behind my ear. But just as were about to try and kiss we heard two thuds and when we turned around Carlos and Logan were on the floor in front of the swirly slide. But they both got up really fast and ran out of the apartment. As soon as they left I got up from the orange couch and walked out of 2J. James quickly followed me to the door of my apartment. "You okay", James asked curiously. "I think so I'm just a little confused because I know the guys mean well and they didn't mean to interrupt us but I'm just a little worried that possibly maybe the guys don't want us together," I said quietly. Suddenly James pulled me into the supply closet. "I know this isn't as we both wanted but hey at least were alone finally," said James smiling. I nodded in agreement. Once more James pushed my hair behind my ear and he slowly leaned towards me. As I closed my eyes and leaned towards him our lips softly touched and we kissed. Finally we were officially together.
*End of Flash Back Dream*
After I woke up from my dream I turned on my phone to check if James had called because I was going to pick him up from the air port. The only messages I had were three texts from my mom and Kendall and Carlos wishing me a happy birthday. But I was still waiting for James's call. Suddenly the door bell rang. I called Loraine and Arianna to grab their stuff just in case their dad came early to pick them up and bring them back to his house in Ohio. But when I opened the door there was a huge teddy bear that had a happy birthday shirt on with someone holding it. Suddenly James appeared from behind the bear. "Happy Birthday babe", he said kissing my cheek. I smacked him on his arm playfully. "You know you were supposed to call me when your plane landed," I said trying to laugh. "Yeah but if I called you then I couldn't surprise you on your birthday," he said in a cute little boys voice. When James entered the apartment Loraine went to her room and slammed the door shut. When I went to Loraine's room I knocked on her door because I was concerned because she never acted like this when James was around. She slowly opened her door and invited me into her room. "Loraine are you ok honey," I asked as I sat down on her bed. "I'm fine Mom I am honestly," Loraine said as she sat down next to me on her bed. I knew she was fine but something was defiantly bothering her. "Loraine you remind me of someone I know that always hides her feelings and is very stubborn," I replied. That made Loraine smile because ever since she was little everyone in my family had always told her that she reminded them of me when I was little because if Loraine didn't get her way she either through a fit or she would be too stubborn to admit she was wrong about anything. "I don't want James to replace my dad," Loraine said sadly. I knew the divorce was a lot harder on her than it had been on Arianna. I hugged my daughter softly trying to comfort her. "Honey I promise you that James will never ever replace your Dad. James just wants to be your friend and he and I will always going to be here for you and your sister and your soon to be step brother whenever you need us," I said whipping a tear from my eyes. Loraine and I smiled. I knew she was going to be okay.
Soon we left the room together and when we arrived in the living room and my ex Husband was already here waiting and talking to James about who knows what. I hugged and kissed the girls goodbye and they also hugged James as well. Soon the Girls were gone and finally James and I were alone. As I wrapped my arms round James and he wrapped his arms around my waist we just stood there looking into each other's eyes. Later on that day we were strolling through central park when James's phone started ringing. I watched and smiled as his face lit up. When he hung up his phone he was acting as giddy as a child in a candy store. I hadn't seen him this excited before. After a few minutes he finally clamed and sat down on one of the park benches. "So what if I told you that we are invited to go to Minnesota for a cook out at Carlos and Rachel's house", he said excitedly. "I would say I'm in and I want to go home and see everyone", I said not realizing that I was probably more excited than he was. So James called his Mom and told her that we were coming home for a visit and she invited us to stay at her house. Going back to Minnesota was going to be awesome.
