I DONT OWN DEGRASSI
Marco's POV
Paige and I were sitting happily on my sofa. The reality show was on but we weren't watching it, finally happy to be out of school. Paige didn't have work tonight so it was just us. "Hey,
what happened with Alex." Paige is so innocent yet so ignorant. Should I tell her?
"You'll have to wait and ask her that. She will explain it better than me." I responded
"Okay I have work with her tomorrow and I will ask her than."
"Paige, be careful when you talk to her."
"Definitely!" She replied confused. I just don't know how much more pain Paige can handle. First, this year, there was her rape trial. Then there was the shooting, and now this.
Meanwhile
Jay's POV
Much to my displeasure I heard a knock on my door at around 11. It was Lexi (again). I am sick and tired of her mother's boyfriend sometimes I just want to walk to their apartment when
he is in his drunken stupor and you know, do to him what he has done to Lexi. I want to kill him. Jesus she must have done something 'really bad' this time to get him so angry. I am not
going to call him anything but her mother's boyfriend or him because he doesn't deserve a name.
"Lexi, you are an idiot." I know, it sounds harsh but it slipped out of my mouth. She is though, thoughtlessly returning home time and time again. I don't know why she can't leave her
mother. Her mother abandoned her years ago choosing a dirt bag that would treat her daughter like ****.
"How much dope are you on?" she asked me. I am insulted.
"Not much, but you could use some. It would ease the pain." I motioned to hand her a joint but she shook her head. Not in the mood I guess.
"So Lexi, what do you need? Ice? A change of clothes? A bucket load of advil? A make - out session from me?" She nodded and laid down on the coach. God she looked like a mess. She
had a bleeding lip, bruised chins, a shoulder that looked out of joint, and I am not sure but I think she had a limp when she walked in. She needed cleaning up under her shirt and all she
was wearing but she was already asleep so I couldn't disturb her. Sleep was the only time she was actually in peace.
Paige's POV
"My nail just cracked! I just painted it. Isn't that my luck now no guy will want to look at me because of my stupid fingernail." I check my phone. "Where is Alex? She should have been
here 30 minutes ago. No calls. Ha I don't even think she has my number. Stop it Paige, stop talking to yourself." If Alex doesn't show up soon then she is going to lose her job and I will
have no one to talk too. And to think she needs me.
Five hours later and Alex still hadn't showed up yet. I was starting to get worried. I called Marco and he didn't know where she was either. Her phone kept on ringing and ringing and
ringing when we dialed it. Marco told me to come over to his house after work and we would think of what to do from there.
Alex mumbled incoherently. She screamed and gasped for air. When she looked up and noticed I was lying on the floor next to her she calmed down. She wouldn't want to wake me up as
I am sure she was thinking. How could I be sleeping when she was having nightmares and terrors every second of the night. Even after that dirt – bag is gone she will still have
nightmares. I give her a kiss, not a long one, just one to tell her I am there for her and she has nothing to worry about. She is safe with me.
I was pretty sure Lexi couldn't go back to sleep after that. I took matters in my own hands and lifted her gently, part way off the couch. I held her in my arms the rest of the night not
letting any terrifying demons of the previous day haunt her. I need to get a bigger apartment so that she can sleep on a bed, comfortable and safe never having to go back to her house.
I know, I know she doesn't want to leave her mom. I wouldn't either but that girl has got to live and not have to live with her mom's mistakes. In my opinion Emily has forfeited her
parent-ship to someone more suitable. That is me of course. Now it is up to me to care for and encourage Lexi (Hogart) and help her live the rest of her life.
