Chapter Four Chapter FourPatrick's Apt

Lexi was awaken by a warm hand slowly moving up and down her side this brought a smile on her face before she even opened her eyes. "Good Morning" she said, as she turned and looked at her husband. "Morning we have to get going sleepy head." "Where are we going to?" "You forgot already we have to go get some furniture for this apt." "Yea that's right so let's go." They got up and got ready to head out to the mall.

Starr and Cole

The phone rang as both Cole and Starr try to ignore it "It is Saturday for crying out loud." Cole snarled, "It's probably Langston." Starr then picked up the phone "Hello, oh hi Langston, what time is it? Oh right I forgot I'm sorry, I'll meet you in one hour, no I'll be there by." "Where are you off to?" "I forgot I had to meet up with Langston this morning I'll be back in time for us to take Megan to build-a-bear." She then got up and started to get ready

Langston and Markko

"Honey have you seen my black purse?" Langston yelled from the closet Markko still in bed "Honey you have several black purses I have know idea which one you are referring to; however there is one here next to the bed." Langston came from the closet and went to his side of the bed where the purse she was looking for was located she then gave her husband a kiss "I know for a fact that I'd be lost without you." "I do too." She then hit him on the arm playfully "I'll be back in time for our afternoon together." "Ok have fun with your gal pal." Langston then left

Patrick and Lexi

As they were walking in the mall holding hands Patrick saw that Lexi looked a bit uneasy " honey what's wrong?" "Nothing I'm fine." Patrick didn't believe her " you know I'm not going to let this go so you might as well say what's on your mind." "It's nothing its silly really, its just that this area is where a lot of my moms friends shop." " So?" "Its just that we are both wearing our rings and if someone sees us." "You think there are going to tell your mom before you get a chance to." "I don't think , I know they will and then my mom will never speak to me again." "its going to be fine the mall is practically empty that's we came here early so that we would not get noticed." He then pulled her into a hug and kissed her.

Starr and Langston

"Why are we going to this mall again?" Langston asked, "This mall had the gift we are looking for aunt Dorian's birthday it had one of the best antique stores." "Oh so what are your plans for later?" "Cole and I are taking Megan to build- a- bear then she is spending the night at moms so that Cole and I can have some alone time." "I see" " what about you/" " Well Lexi is at Kate's for the weekend so Markko and I have the place to ourselves we have some alone time as well." Both women stated laughing as they headed towards the antique store.

Patrick and Lexi

As they were looking around the furniture store a woman approached them. "Lexi is that you?" "Mrs. Whitmore how are you?" " I am doing good haven't seen you in a long time and who is this handsome young man?" Mrs. Whitmore this is Patrick." "Pleasure to meet you." As he extend out his hand that which was the hand that he had his wedding band on which Mrs. Whitmore noticed she then try to look at Lexis's hand but currently wasn't visible which caused even more curiosity. The representative then called Patrick and Lexi " Mrs. Whitmore we have to go it nice seeing you again." Lexi said nervously the went towards to the furniture rep to sign off on the order as they walked out of the store " she noticed your ring." " I don't think so." " Yes she did oh my god what if she tells my mom.' " Lexi calm down I doubt she will is close friends with your mom?" " Not really" " So you have nothing to worry about let's get something to eat." The then headed for an outside bistro.

Starr and Langston

" This looks nice." Starr stated " Remember this is for Dorian we need more than 'nice'." " Your right." As they continued to look around they saw a woman " Oh no it Whitney Whitmore what is she doing here?" Langston said "I cant even hide she already saw me/" just then the woman came up to them " Wow now it makes more sense?" both Starr and Langston looking at each other clueless as to what she is talking about " what makes sense Whitney." I just saw your daughter I guess she came with you?" " know she's probably with her friends." " I saw her with a friend but he looked like more that a friend and a married one at that." " Whitney there's no need to draw assumptions I'm sure there is a logical explanation." " Ok I will leave it at that see you later ladies." " Can you believe her?" Starr said then she looked at Langston " what is it" " Lexi is supposed to be away with Kate and her friends this is only 20mins ways from Llandveiw something is up." " You don't believe Whitney do you?" " No I don't she just trying to make trouble I would however like to talk to Lexi." Then reached for her cell phone to make a call " slow down lets just give Lexi the benefit of a doubt she a smart girl come lets get something to eat." The headed to the bistro

Starr and Langston went to the bistro and sat down then Starr saw Lexi and she saw she was opposite to a guy but his back was turn against Starr so she couldn't see her face " I'm you might not want to look around." Langston then looked the direction and saw whom Starr was looking at Lexi and her guy looked very comfortable with each other as if they have known each other for years then the male wavered for the waiter with his left hand clearly showing his wedding band at this site both starr and Langston mouth dropped.
