Finally, it was the end of the week and much to Lexi's pleasure, no more trig for hours. She was sitting with Brianna at lunch discussing their weekend plans.
"It's set, sleepover at your house. I need a break from reality" she said, eating her pizza.
"Oh god I know! If my reality was filled with four good-looking friends I'd feel the same way" smirked Brianna.
"Shut up!" snapped Lexi.
"Touchy, aren't we? Anyways, sounds good to me. Have you told Caleb?"
"I'll tell him in study hall" she said, getting up when the bell rang.
"Right! See you at seven then" said Brianna, and left for Spanish.
After what seemed like forever in her french class Lexi finally walked to study hall where she sat next to Caleb and Pogue.
"CD!! Been a long time" she smiled at him. "Hey Pogue"
Pogue grinned in response while Caleb looked suspicious. "What do you want Lexi?"
"Jeez, can't a girl say hello to her favorite brother?"
"And only one" smirked Pogue, earning a glare from Lexi.
Caleb sighed. "What do you want?"
"Johnny Depp, ice cream, a vacation, new hangout for Ipswich, to stop getting calls about my brother-"
"I'm serious Alexa" said Caleb, his patience wearing out.
"I could do with the new hangout" mused Pogue.
"Fine! But you should write those down, in case you ever need them" she said, hoping he got the ice cream and Johnny Depp hint. "I actually wanted to tell you I'll be in a sleepover at Brianna's this weekend"
"I don't think that's such a good idea" he said looking at her.
"See the thing is that I wasn't asking you if it was a good idea, I was merely telling you about my whereabouts this weekend" she finished, irritated at him for playing the overprotective brother bit.
"Calm down Lexi, I'm just looking out for you"
"I'm old enough to look after myself Caleb, but something tells me you'll never get that" and with that she left the room just as the bell rang.
"Tough break man" said Pogue.
"I tell you it's not easy" Caleb told him while exiting the classroom.
"It is only a sleepover after all" Pogue tried to reason with him.
Caleb stopped and looked at him dead serious. "This morning I felt something. Something unusual, as if someone's been using"
Pogue looked at him stunned. "You don't mean what I'm thinking?"
"It's not any of us so it must be him" he sighed, worried.
"What do we do?" Pogue asked after a moment's silence.
"Call a meeting for tonight, we'll decide there"
In the hallway Lexi was walking fast and muttering to herself angrily. Why did he have to be like that? I mean it's not as if she told him ' Hey Caleb, I'm off to drink and get pregnant for the weekend. Be seeing you!' He seriously needs to let go. It's obvious she has grown up. She was so focused in her plan to murder him when she stumbled into somebody. She looked up to stare into those baby blue eyes she knew very well.
"You ok?" he asked her, helping to pick her books.
"Fine" she breathed. Just peachy!
"Baby Boy!! Stop flirting and come on, I wanna get out of here!" smirked Reid.
"Right, those pool tables won't play themselves" she smirked at Reid and looked at Tyler for a second before turning to leave.
"Wait! You forgot one"
She turned at him to see him holding out her french book. Oh the irony!! She quickly grabbed it, brushing his hand along the way and left. When she got in the car she rested her head on the steering wheel. She couldn't wait to be out for the weekend, just girl time. She felt relieved to think about it. But just as soon the feeling vanished. Lexi shivered at the sudden cold and felt as if someone was watching her. She looked back at Spence but there was nobody looking in her direction. She thought she saw something in the mirror, a shadow. I must be losing it!! She thought and drove off to her house. By 6:30 she was ready to go, all packed. She headed down the stairs only to come face to face with Caleb.
"What?" she asked coldly.
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry, and have fun" he said, looking at her with what seemed like puppy eyes.
She sighed. It was really hard to stay angry at him. "No worries, and thanks" She continued to head out and put her stuff in the car.
"Lexi?!" She turned to look at her brother slightly worried. "Take care of yourself will you? Call me if you need anything" he told her and hugged her tightly. She didn't know what was going on, but somehow it felt as if they were saying goodbye.
"Don't worry CD, everything will be fine" she let go, smiling at him as she got in the car. After waving at him one last time she sped off.
Please don't let anything happen to her! He thought as he watched her go. At that moment, he got a text from Pogue saying they were all waiting for him. He jumped in his car and drove off. He arrived to find them all in their usual spots, all worried except Reid. Figures, he thought.
"I told them everything" said Pogue.
"What do we do?" asked Tyler, looking at him.
"Kick his ass! For good this time" said Reid, reveling in the thought.
"It's gonna take all of us, but first we better figure out where he is" Caleb told them. Right then, he got a phone call. Caleb glanced at the caller ID to see Lexi's name. "Lex, I can't really talk-" He stopped talking after hearing a crash and Lexi frantically calling out his name. "Lexi!!! What's wrong?"
"Putnam Barn in five Danvers. Either you show up, or little Alexa pays" Said a voice he clearly remembered.
The line went dead, and so did Caleb's heart.
"What's wrong?" asked Tyler, extremely worried.
"I found Chase. He's got Lexi" Caleb told them, leaving them stunned.
