Inexperienced Love
Chapter Fourteen.
Kevin immediately spotted Lexie's Honda as soon as she arrived at Campus. He waited impatiently until she parked her bike and hung the helmet on the handlebar. Alexia was still a little upset because of the argument she had with her older sister the night before; Kevin's words just kept hammering in her head; it was difficult for Lexie to think of her sister as a conniving, vicious, boyfriend stealer; that thought had been battling inside her
all night, and it was killing her.
"I was waiting for you gorgeous" He eagerly grabbed Lexie by the waist and swiftly turned her around to kiss her lips.
Lexie placed her arms on his chest and tried to push him away, but Kevin was so seductively convincing. He pulled back her long, light brown hair and placed his hand on the back of her neck; he leaned over her and pushed her backwards until she reached the motorcycle. Suddenly she found herself trapped between his arms and her Honda; Kevin knew it, and took advantage of the situation; he kissed her with more passion than ever before. Lexie wrapped her hands around Kevin's neck and ran her fingers through his hair. Their mouths melted as one. Some students stood there, watching and cheering them up.
Standing a few yards away from them, Rachel McPherson was watching closely, thinking of a quick plan to break them apart...right now and permanently, it was only a matter of time.
"Bitch!" Rachel thought to herself. "I don't know what does he sees in you, but you better enjoy his kisses while you can, cause I swear you're going to be suffering before long, and that's going to happen sooner than you think." She smiled and walked cheerfully towards them.
"Hey, cut it off you guys" Rachel grabbed Lexie's hands and pulled her away from Kevin.
"Get a room... will you?" She tried to sound funny but Lexie somehow was not so sure about that.
"Rachel, Rachel... don't you have anything more important to do? Or at least another place to be at the moment?" Lexie asked with a boring tone. "I need to talk to Kevin...alone"
"Actuallyyyy......NO" Rachel smiled. "In fact, I was looking for you; you missed soccer practice this morning"
"No kidding...Really?" Lexie drew a fake smile. "Well thanks for letting me know" She grabbed her backpack from the back of the motorcycle and tossed it over her shoulder, she stared at Rachel for a moment, wanting to release all the bottled up steam, but decided to keep her mouth shut; she smiled and decided it was time to leave. Kevin followed close, reaching out to hold her hand.
"You know...this could look like you're jealous... Are you?" Rachel mocked.
"Jealous?" Lexie laughed. "Why should I?" She shook her head.
"I don't know, but you don't look too friendly this morning...everything ok?"
Lexie closed her eyes, realizing the indifferent behavior she had been showing. "Sorry, I'm ok Rachel, it's just that there are a lot of things in my mind right now" She kept walking, looking straight ahead, purposely avoiding her teammate.
"Well I was worried, really, you never miss practice" Rachel raised her voice and quickened her pace, trying to keep up with Lexie's.
"Yes, Rachel, yes... of course you were" Lexie rolled her eyes and squeezed Kevin's hand. "Thanks for caring".
"Maybe I should stay away from you; Perhaps I'm being a big pain in the..."
"Naw...you're not" Lexie smiled trying to be polite.
"Cool" Rachel smirked. "Well, me and all the girls were kind of thinking that...maybe... MAYBE... yesterday's practice was a little extenuating for you"
"No, it wasn't...I told you I had some things to take care of this morning".
"Samantha got really pissed when you didn't show up" Rachel grabbed Lexie's arm and pulled her to a stop. "Are you listening? Sam was really pissed!"
"Yes, I'm listening, and don't worry, I'll deal with her later" Lexie glimpsed at the annoying girl beside her and scratched her head. "Rachel, I think you're acting weird; Is there anything else you want to say to me?... cause I really need to get going"
"Well, just that Samantha said that if you missed another practice you might as well start forgetting about being the captain or perhaps she'd even kicked you from the team" Rachel shook her head. "But I told her that we couldn't do without you"
Lexie smiled widely. "Ok Rachel, thank you" She sighed, grabbed the backpack from her shoulder, and tossed it on Kevin's. "Listen, I've been thinking all night about what happened to me after practice, and the more I think, the more I realize that maybe you had something to do with it so, tell me, is it probably that you might be feeling guilty?...although I seriously doubt it" She folded her arms before her and stared angrily at her.
"How rude Lexie! I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just trying to be friendly here, that's all"
"Well excuse me if I'm being rude, but it seems you've already forgotten about the little prank you played on me yesterday" She walked slowly to Rachel and fixed her eyes into hers.
"Prank? What prank? I' m telling you... I don't even know what are you talking about"
"Don't give me that bull" Lexie gave her a slight shove, but Kevin grabbed her arm and pulled her away.
"It's ok Kevin, I'm not going to do anything to her, don't worry" Lexie pulled her arm loose from Kevin's hand and slowly approached Rachel until she was almost one inch close to her face. Rachel smirked and held Lexie's gaze, without blinking.
Lexie gently stroke back her hair and took a deep breath, trying to stay calm. "I swear to you that if you ever try something like that again I'll ..."
"What? You are going to do what, exactly?" Rachel asked, still smiling; a slight sarcastic tone in her voice suddenly started to be noticeable. "You're gonna stop being my friend?...Boo hoo...don't make me cry"
"Come on Lex, You're gonna get in trouble!" Kevin pulled her away and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. "Let's just fucking go; and you..." He turned to Rachel. "You stay away from Lex" He warned her with a menacing finger.
Rachel smiled scornfully as she watched them leave; but she was not going to let it end like that, she had to give the final stroke. "Ask that boyfriend of yours to tell you what we did yesterday!" Rachel shouted.
"That little witch!" Lexie mumbled while walking beside Kevin. "Can you believe her? She hid my bloody backpack in the trashcan and I couldn't find it; I needed the bike's keys... Prue was so pissed 'cause I got home late... and my bag was so dirty and smelly, and ...wait a minute" She stopped for a moment and turned to face Kevin. "What did she mean by that?...what did you do yesterday?"
"Fuck Lex, just drop this, ok? I didn't do anything" Kevin replied with an angry tone.
"Well she said you did!"
"Great! And you believe 'her' instead of me, right?"
Lexie shrugged. "Well... no, but..."
"But nothing, forget about it" He pulled her harshly against him and kissed her. "So, we're still on for tomorrow, right? He held her at arms length and smiled, trying to be more seductive than ever.
"I don't know, maybe." She kissed him softly. "I'll have to ask my sisters, and, Prue is mad at me right now"
"Still mad because we were making up on the porch?" Kevin shook his head.
"Yeah, that and because I told her about her obsession for you"
"You didn't!" Kevin grabbed her shoulders and shoved her to the wall.
"I had to!" Lexie spoke nervously. "She was mad and yelling at me, I couldn't stand her"
Kevin tightened his teeth and turned his eyes away from Lexie. "You need to be more fucking discrete, damn it Lex, you blew it, you fucking blew it" He paced in front of her, obviously enraged. "Ok, ok, now I need to think of a way to redeem myself"
"Yeah? See, I don't think so; they don't really like you; Piper is nagging at me all the time; she wants me to stop seeing you" She rubbed her shoulders fixing her eyes on Kevin's. "I can clearly imagine what's she's going to say when she finds out that we were making out outside my own house." She smiled weakly. "Prue just won't keep it to herself, specially because she's jealous and mad at me; I know she's going to tell Piper... and I just hate it when I disappoint Piper"
"I'm telling you, they're going to end up loving me" Kevin bent over and gave her a small kiss. "You just let me show them how much I like you" He kissed her again; this time the kiss lasted longer. "And if it doesn't work and you feel something for me... I mean, if you reaaaally like me... you should stand up for me, you're not a baby anymore; they can't tell you what to do or whom to date... can they?"
"No, they shouldn't... but they do" Lexie softly shoved him back. "Actually, 'they' all think they have the right to choose my friends; and neither one of them accepts my friendship with you; 'friendship Kevin, friendship'...just imagine what's going to happen when I tell them about you and I probably going steady" She shook her head. "Although, maybe I won't have to go through that, cause after last night's hectic little chat with Prue, I guess she's already figured it out"
Kevin smiled cynically. "You mean you accept to be my girl?"
"Yes" Lexie kissed him.
"Great, now Prue must learn to live with the fact that I chose you instead of her" Kevin kissed her again. "And I aint gonna let you go" He caressed her cheek gently with the back of his hand. "I'll show them I can be a nice guy if I want to; they will end up worshipping me" mcmcmcmdmd
Lexie laughed spontaneously. "Are you kidding me? You know very well they don't like you" She sneered. "Could it be because you're 28 and I'm 18?" She laughed louder. "Or maybe because you're a rich daddy's boy, and a rebel!" She chuckled. "They say you've wasted a lot of time in College, flunk after flunk; so that makes you a very, very... very bad influence for me" She whispered, staring at his blue eyes. Kevin smiled and winked an eye; Leslie frowned, grasped his shirt, and softly pulled him closer to her. "But they don't know what a great kisser you are" She slightly opened her mouth and waited for his lips to find hers.
After school, Lexie hurried back to her bike; she wanted to be early at home because she knew Prue was upset; and because she was also afraid and worried about what happened that morning. She grabbed her black helmet and pulled back her long hair to put it on, but it was suddenly tossed away from her hands. She closed her eyes, knowing perfectly well what was going to happen next and it did. She suddenly was lifted through the air and thrown on top of a parked car next to her bike. She rolled over and fell on the pavement, hissing in pain; she grabbed her left side and knelt behind the car; carefully hiding herself behind the tire. She nervously searched her pockets and found the bike's keys. "Ok, I just need to act quick" Her respiration was unsteady and she started to sweat heavily. "I'm sick and tired of all this stupid witchy stuff," she muttered.
Lexie took a deep breath and ran to her motorcycle. "It's now or never!" She jumped on it and skillfully started the engine. She was about to leave her parking spot when she felt a hand on her neck; without hesitation, she lifted her left leg to defend herself but she swung through thin air; she quickly lifted her right leg with all her strength and kicked away her unseen attacker. She felt the grip on her neck loosened and she speedily drove away.
"Prue!, Piper!" Lexie hurriedly entered the manor. She was scared and very nervous. She quickly ran to the kitchen and nobody was there, so she hastily moved to the living room and found it empty.
"Phoebe! ...Damn it! Where are you guys?" She ran upstairs hoping to find them in the attic, she reluctantly pushed the door open and stopped on her tracks. Zinnlar was there, but he was holding Phoebe down on the sofa. Phoebe tried to push him back but he violently clasped her neck.
"Lexie, get out, go away!" Phoebe shouted. Zinnlar grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her hard against the sofa; He was too strong for her, so it was easy to keep her down. Phoebe struggled harder to get loose but he just wouldn't let her free. Zinnlar lifted Phoebe's body above his head and threw her on the floor. She screamed in pain when her back hit the floor but managed to glance at her sister, who was petrified watching the violent scene. "Damn it, Lexie, I said go away, please" Phoebe was thinking of her sister's safety instead of her own.
"No, I'm not leaving you alone with this...thing!" Lexie shouted. "Let go of her, you bastard son of a bitch!" She shouted, her face quickly becoming livid when she saw him walking towards her; she expected the worse to happen and she was right; he hit her face harsh enough to keep her quiet; she fell limply on the floor.
"Lexie" Phoebe tried to go after her fallen sister but zinnlar waved his arm and sent her back to the sofa.
He smirked and slowly went back to Phoebe; he bent down and violently ripped her blouse open. Phoebe screamed and covered her chest with both hands. She was nervous, but she was more afraid for her sister. Zinnlar suddenly became invisible but she could still feel his cold hands trying to get rid of the rest of her clothes. She was struggling to get up but his hands were all over her; she screamed and fought back as hard as she could, but she was loosing the battle.
"Phoebe! Lexie lunged herself over her sister and made her scream when she felt the demon's and Lexie's weigh on top of her. Phoebe tightened her teeth and kicked hard, throwing both of them harshly on the floor. Lexie quickly got on her feet and covered her sister's body with hers.
"Oh my God... what happened? Come on, let's get the hell out of here" Lexie tried to help Phoebe stand on her feet but Zinnlar thought the other way. He violently shoved Lexie away and pushed Phoebe back to the sofa.
"You better cooperate now witch, or I'll have fun with your sister instead"
"Ok, ok, just let her go" Phoebe whispered hopelessly.
"I knew you were going to accept my demand" He smiled. But, she stays, let her watch...I'm sure she'll find it very interesting and perhaps she might even want to join us" Zinnlar laughed sarcastically and leaned over Phoebe, sweating, slowly unbuttoning his leather shirt.
Lexie watched with horror but she wasn't going to allow that demon rape her sister, she slowly got up and went to the table where some vials with strange potions were piled up.
She silently grabbed a few colored liquids and tossed them on the demon's back. He squealed while his back started to smoke but quickly shimmered away before he was vanquished.
Phoebe slowly sat up and stared at Lexie; the youngest sister was shaking, biting her lower lip, and bravely holding back her fear, as well as some extra vials in her trembling hands. Phoebe got up and unsteadily walked towards her baby sister. "Thank you Lex" Phoebe whispered gently holding her baby sister. Both were nervously shuddering.

"Easy, honey, it's ok now, you're ok, I'm here" Piper held Phoebe tightly while she cried. Phoebe wanted to be strong and not show any sign of weakness, but she couldn't. Piper was resting her back on Phoebe's bed board and Phoebe was resting her head on Piper's lap.
"I don't understand why are you so scared Phoebe, I mean, you've been through worse things than that" Piper spoke calmly still holding tightly her shaky sister.
Phoebe sighed. "You don't understand Piper, I was so freaking scared; I was afraid for Lexie, she's so innocent and so vulnerable" Phoebe spontaneously smiled. "But she was so brave...she saved me!...can you believe it? She saved me!"
"I know" Piper smiled. "She's done nothing but brag about that all evening"
Phoebe hastily sat up and stared at Piper. "Do you think he's been vanquished? I mean, really vanquished!"
"It's hard to say" Piper breathed deeply. "He said that he was immune to our powers, but not to our potions, so...maybe Lexie vanquished him for good"
"But how could she know which potion to use?" Phoebe was really amazed with her baby sister's brave performance.
"I didn't" Lexie walked into Phoebe's room. "I just grabbed a bunch of little glass jars and threw them on his back" She smiled sweetly. "That's what you always do. Right?" She shrugged. "Are you ok?"
"Yes, thanks to you" Phoebe nodded. "Piper, I was thinking..."
"Congratulations!" Piper smiled winking an eye to Lexie.
"No, really Piper, I was thinking that if Zinnlar said he came prepared against us, and that our powers were useless against him...maybe," Phoebe softly rubbed her chin, "maybe we could make some sort of amulet or locket or whatever to make the bearer immune to our powers"
"Come again?" Piper frowned.
"I'm talking about Lexie; we keep hurting her, freezing her, hurling her when we try to help her...buuut, with that locket, she will be protected against our own powers!"
"Mmmmh, see, you're not that dumb after all Phoebe, that's a great idea honey, why didn't it occurred to us before" She smiled. "We should start working on that amulet right now"
"It's not necessary, 'cause I don't think I can go through with this Piper" Lexie spoke nervously.
"Shh, I know you're scared baby, but don't worry, I'll help you... We'll help you deal with it" Piper kissed Lexie's forehead. "Let's go to bed now and we'll fix everything tomorrow, I promise"
"Phoebe, can I sleep in your bed?... I'm not scared, really, but you need someone to take care of you... at least tonight" Lexie spoke sweetly.
Phoebe smiled, she knew her little sister was afraid, but she didn't say a word about it. "Sure sweetie... I could use some nice company right now"
"Okie Dokie" Piper smiled. "I'm going to work on that amulet right now, you two have some rest."
