Charlie walks over to her inquisitively as she gets closer, "Where'd you go?"
"Saw someone I knew," Lexi replies with a grin, "went over to say hi."
The red-head wiggles her eyebrows playfully, "Like flirty hi? Because if the hot J. Law look alike keeps her game up, I'm sorry, but I'm not going home with you."
Lexi laughs out loud at the comment and she replies, "You do you boo. No judgement here, she is hot."
"Right," Charlie's smirk is priceless as she continues, "So, I need you to get your flirt on, that way I don't feel too bad when I ditch you."
"I'll be fine," Lexi replies with a smile, then looks past Charlie to the small table she and Charlie had their drinks on, "where's my drink?"
"Oh," the red-head responds, "yea, she drank it by mistake."
"Do you even know her name?" Lexi questions with a grin.
"Jen?" Charlie shrugs her shoulders, "No, I'm pretty sure it's Molly…or Maggie."
Lexi shakes her head, "I'm going for another drink then, would you like one?"
"No," her friend holds her hand up, "I'm riding the good buzz right now."
The dark-haired girl nods her understanding before she turns and heads back towards the bar. Evan is still sitting on the bar stool where she'd left him moments ago, except now he has a beer in his hand. He smirks when he sees her walking back towards him, "Couldn't stay away?"
"No," she narrows her eyes at him for a brief moment, before she stretches up on her tip toes to lean across the bar top, "Joe, I need a refill when you get a chance please."
The bartender gives her a wink, letting her know he heard her order over the music and constant chatter of the other customers at the bar. Lexi turns her back to the bar and leans against it slightly as she waits on her drink.
"Girl's night huh?" Evan questions.
"It was," Lexi says, "but my friend seems to have found someone to take home, so…"
"Ahhh," he replies, "she's dumping you."
"Yea, I don't blame her though."
She hears Joe place a glass on the bar behind her and she turns around to grab it. She takes a sip, letting the sweet and sour taste wrinkle her face, as Charlie's voice rings out from behind her, "Hey Lex, we're going to take off."
That was quick.
Lexi turns around and sees Charlie standing there with Molly/Maggie and she smiles, giving her friend a quick hug, "Okay, be careful. Text me when you get wherever you're going."
"Charlie," Molly/Maggie says in sad tone, obviously a little tipsy "we don't have to leave your friend by herself."
The brunette pushes Lexi's hair behind her ear in a flirty fashion as Lexi giggles uncomfortably, "No…no, I'm good."
Charlie looks amused at her friend's unease at the situation, so she adds, "Are you sure? Three's better than two."
Evan nearly chokes on his beer as Lexi shoots Charlie a death glare, but Molly/Maggie moves closer and her lips are on Lexi's before the dark-haired girl can register what's happening. Evan doesn't feel bad for watching this moment transpire, because Joe is glancing over too, as well as everyone else within five feet of them.
When the brunette pulls away from Lexi, she smiles seductively at her, "Sure you don't wanna come with us?"
"I will," a stranger from the bar mutters.
"Look," Evan leans in on the conversation, looking at the brunette with a smirk "I thought she and I were having a moment, how the hell am I supposed to compete with you?"
The woman looks genuinely upset, "Oh no! I'm sorry. A moment? Aww, that's adorable, Charlie look how handsome he is."
"Yea," Charlie's trying to contain her laughter, "Lexi's in good hands, let's go."
Lexi gives a nod of her head to the woman and she can still see the amusement on Charlie's face as she turns to walk with the brunette out of the bar.
"Wow!" Evan says as Lexi turns back to the bar still in disbelief.
"Right," she replies as she moves her hand to her mouth and pulls something out, "this isn't my gum."
She sticks the souvenir on a napkin and takes a long sip from her drink as Evan closes his eyes tightly, a smile permanently plastered to his face at the moment, "So, so many comments."
"Keep them to yourself," she remarks.
He nods, then takes a sip of his beer as he watches the girl tap the side of her glass absent mindedly with her index finger.
"What's the game plan now?" he questions her.
Lexi snaps out her thoughts and glances over at him, "I think I'm going to hang out for a while, you?"
He cocks an eyebrow, "Is that an invitation?"
Lexi narrows her eyes at him playfully, "No handsome, it's not. I know what your game plan was tonight with blondie…and I'm not your consolation prize."
Evan scoffs in offense, "Get over yourself Wilson."
"Excuse you?" her smirk falls.
"I'm not stupid," he turns on the stool to face her, a small grin on his face, "I've seen the way you look at him."
Lexi stares at him for a moment, then glances down at her glass as he continues, "Hell, I'm pretty sure if it came down to it, and it had been left up to me and I wasn't able to bring you back, he would have killed me. So, I get it, you're complicated."
"More now, than before," she says quietly, still staring at the ice in her glass.
He waits a moment before saying, "I'm listening."
Lexi hesitates, but she's not been able to talk with Jody or Donna about the events of that day and Charlie's great, but she's still not her Charlie. What the hell? "When Laura ordered me to kill Sam that day…I saw the hatred in Dean's eyes, the hatred for me. I wanted to unbind my powers to have the advantage over Laura and look where that got me? I killed Logan, I almost killed Sam, I caused more damage than anything, and now…now I can't even freakin' control it. They look at me like I'm sick or…worse, like I'm broken now."
She chews on her bottom lip for a moment, swallowing the lump in her throat before she continues, "I'm not broken, I know what broken feels like, I'm stronger now than I've ever been before, and I think that scares them. I was supposed to go to a family game night a couple nights ago. Mary called to invite me, but I couldn't make myself go."
"Lexi, they care about you," he says reassuringly, "that's obvious."
"I know," she replies quietly, "but I'm not the same person I was, and that's obvious too."
Evan waits a beat before he questions her, "How's the training coming along?"
"Good," she replies quickly, "it's good."
He stares at her curiously for a moment, seeing her sudden uneasiness. Lexi looks over at him and sighs as she drops her head back down, "Okay, I haven't been training. Rowena's tried, but I keep putting it off."
"Seriously?" Evan questions her, then pulls his wallet out of his pocket. He digs some cash out and lays it on the bar beside his empty bottle, "Fine, come on."
"What?" she questions in confusion.
"Come on," he repeats himself, "I'm driving."
Lexi thinks about protesting as he offers her his arm, but instead she loops her arm through his and remarks, "Fine, but I'm only going because I'm hungry and we're stopping for food at some point."
"Deal," he laughs as they make their way out of the bar.
