Chapter nine- Coming home
Kendall's P.O.V
Finally the day came for Lexi to come home! The palm wood wasn't the same without her. For instance pulling pranks wasn't as much fun without her because she wouldn't even question it she would have joined in. James and I were decorating the lobby while Carlos and Logan went with Mrs. Dupree to pick up Lexi. They were to call me when they were in the parking lot. James seemed to be doing better he wasn't blaming himself anymore. Things were going back to normal. The lobby was decorated with different color balloons and streamers. There was a welcome home sign that my mom and Katie bought at Iparty. I waited for my phone to ring. Camille and Jo were setting up the snack table. Suddenly my phone rang and we all stood in front of the sign. Lexi walked in and ran towards the party. She jumped into James's arms. The when James put her down she ran over to me and gave me a hug. The party was fun until an hour after the party ended. Lexi was sitting by herself and watched us cleaning up. James was sitting next to her. Something was bothering her. Maybe she had another night mare.
Lexi's P.O.V
My nightmares were driving me crazy. I haven't slept in three days. I could barely keep my eyes open during rehearsal. Gustavo was yelling at me until Kelly stepped in and told me I could go take a nap in the brake room. The break room couch was very comfortable. I was soon asleep. Then I woke up screaming again. James ran in and hugged me while I sobbed into his shirt. I looked up at James when I was done crying. "Lex can you please tell me what's going on he asked. I told him about my nightmares. He kissed my head when I was done. He told me nothing was going to come between us. This time I believed him. That night I went to bed and didn't have any more of those horrible nightmares. Gustavo gave me three days off to get plenty of rest and I was back to work the week after. Since then I didn't experience any more nightmares. Tasha was never going to hurt me again. When I returned to work Gustavo let me add my vocals to two new songs and gave me the music sheets so I could play along on my guitar while I sang. My life was back to normal. A few days ago I finally got to drive my car and I drove James to the park I had went to when I thought he had cheated on me and we had a picnic lunch. James and I were closer than ever as friends and in our relationship.
