Author's Note: Thanks for all the reviews and all that, these chapters are really self explanatory, but I'm glad everyone likes them.

Chapter 4: Trying to move on

Julian knocked on Andy's door. He answered it and Julian threw a quick punch hitting him square in the nose. Andy grabbed it and just looked down.

"I deserve that," He said, "I definitely deserve that."

"Hell yeah you do!" Julian shouted, "What were you thinking man?"

"What do you know?" Andy scoffed at him. "You're eighteen fucking years old and you found the love of your life four years ago. Some of us need to keep looking."

"You could have any girl you want," Julian said, "and actually you do. Why Lexi?"

"She was there," he shrugged, "she was willing, and hot, God the stuff she would do."

"I don't want to know," Julian said, "I just want you to stay away from her, got it?"

"What are you going to do about Banksie?" Andy laughed, "You think this is the first time she ended it? Almost every time we say that it's the last one."

"That girl is in love with you," Julian said, "God only knows why, but she is."

"That's not my fault!" Andy said, "And do you think if I knew how she felt I would have played it the way I did?"

"I don't think you would have done much differently," Julian said.

"I would have at least not felt up other girls in front her," Andy said, "Maybe I would have,"

"What? Told her you loved her too, so that she'd stick around longer?" Julian said.

"Yeah," Andy said, "yeah."

"Why am I friends with you?" Julian said, standing up and walking out. "Just stay the hell away from her, and me."

"Just tell me what happened," Kitty said, once she had calmed Lexi down a little bit.

"Well, it was normal at first," Lexi said, "and we were, well it just felt so good, he was so tender, so into it you know? It was so much better than it usually is and I just, when I came, I shouted that I loved him."

"And what did he do?" Kitty had this feeling that he lost it or something.

"Nothing," Lexi said, "He just finished, like normal. And then we just sat there. And then he asked me if it was just because I was coming. I could have lied Kitty, I know, I should have, but I was so tired of lying. I just wanted him to love me too."

"So you told him the truth?" Kitty said. "You told him you love him?"

"Yes," she nodded, "and he just sat there, staring. So I got up and started to get my stuff together, I told him I was done. Then he said he sort of loved me to he guesses."

"Sort of loves you, he guesses?" Kitty repeated, completely enraged. "You have to be done now Lex. This can't be like the other times!"

"I am done," Lexi nodded, "but it's just so hard."

"I know," Kitty said hugging Lexi's head to her chest. "I know."

"Good, so am I!" He smiled and pulled her close.

"Thanks for bringing me." Julie whispered.

"Julie?" He said quietly.

"Yes?" She pulled back.

"There's something I've been wanting to do." He said and then he leaned in and kissed her. She didn't say a word, just pulled into him and cried quietly. When the song ended she pulled out of his arms, kissed him on the cheek and walked away, still crying.

Julie woke up from the dream, the flashback really, and sighed heavily. Dean was still sound asleep. She'd been thinking about that night recently, a lot actually. She knew exactly what it was, it was the start of her life. If it hadn't been for that night, that dance, that kiss she probably wouldn't be laying here now, next to the love of her life. God only knows where she'd be. She'd given up on what ifing her life a long time ago. Actually on the day that she and Dean got together, because her life with Adam had been a long series of what ifs.

"Hey," Dean said, rolling over, "What's in your head?"

"I dreamed about prom again." She sighed.

"The kiss?" He smiled. He loved that she was able to tell him this kind of thing. He knew that it was hard for her, her past was so convoluted.

"Yeah," she said, "I've been thinking, maybe we shouldn't go up there."

"Adam?" He asked. "Or is it something else?"

"Heather, actually," she said. "Me and Luis weren't the only surprise that night."

"Yeah," he said quietly, "I know. I just thought that you wanted to see them,"

"I do!" Julie explained, "but I also don't want to ruin the night for them. The four of us don't exactly have the best track record when we're all together." Dean nodded, the past four years had seen some awkward nights, when Adam, Heather and they were pushed together because of Kitty and Julian's relationship. It was one of the reason Dean had objected so strongly to Kitty and Julian getting engaged, that and the fact that they were eighteen.

"It's up to you," he said kissing her. "I don't want you to feel uncomfortable about it."

"I know," she said, "I'll think about it for a little while, and then get back to you."

"Take your time," he laughed, rolling over and going back to sleep.

Over the next few days Lexi walked right past Andy in the hall, pretending she didn't see him. It broke her heart but she had to do it. She found herself surprisingly at ease with the whole situation. She began spending more time with Danny, as they all planned prom night.

"My dad's gonna be in town that weekend!" Lexi squealed. Kitty smiled, Lexi rarely saw her parents, or spoke to them, she wasn't sure why, but they simply had little interest in their daughter. "Didn't your parents say they were coming too?"

"Mom called this morning," Danny said, "they changed their minds, Dad's afraid it's going to be a busy weekend at the bar. Luis is going to come up though." Kitty nodded, she knew this was a lie for Danny's benefit. It wasn't the bar, it was the Banks family.

"Good," Kitty said, for some reason she was more comfortable with this. Especially since her relationship with her father had been strained lately, because of the engagement. Luis was much more supportive of her decision, and also much easier to separate from the craziness, because his involvement in the whole thing seemed so minimal, at least compared to Adam and Heather. "I was thinking we should all probably meet here," Kitty said, "Since you know, Julian, you're the only one who isn't in the dorm."

"Good point," Julian nodded, "But do you want to deny Deena the chance to see you girls?"

"Alright fine," Kitty kissed him softly, she was careful though, she had been for the past few days, she didn't want to upset Lexi. "We'll all go to your house. I'll call Luis later."

"Great," Julian said, he looked up and saw Andy walking past with his arm around some nondescript blonde underclassman, whispering in her ear. Lexi saw it too, she looked down at her food. Julian went to stand up.

"Julian," Lexi shook her head, "Don't, I'm fine."

"What's going on with you two?" Danny asked, "I mean, you used to be all buddy buddy, until a few days ago."

"He's a dirty fucking prick is what happened," Julian said, rage in his eyes.

"Oh," Danny said not understanding at all.

"Don't even worry about it." Kitty said, "You really don't want to know."

The next day Lexi was laying in bed in the morning. She was facing the wall, her back to Kitty, who then walked over and shook her lightly.

"Lex?" Kitty said softly, "Are you awake? Come on we have homeroom."

"I can't go," Lexi said, her voice squeaking with tears.

"Are you feeling OK?" Kitty asked, "Is this just Andy crap?"

"I'm late," she whispered.

"Not yet, but you will be," Kitty said, "if you don't get up." Lexi sat up.

"No Kitty!" She said, "I'm late! It was supposed to come two days ago." Kitty's eyes got wide.

"You mean that," She stammered, "Do you think?"

"I don't know," Lexi teared up, "if I am, then, what am I going to do? My father will kill me!"

"Are you going to tell him?" Kitty said quietly.

"I think I have to," Lexi whispered.
