Narrative POV

"Where are we going?" Alexis asked Jaden as they sped down the streets, weaving through traffic with ease.

"You'll see," he yelled over the roar of the wind. she sighed and pulled herself closer to him; she rested her head on his back. After five or so minutes, the concrete jungle known as Ochi City gave way into beautiful country side (1). She wanted to ask where they were going again but she bit her tongue. "Hold on, Lex," Jaden yelled after a few minutes in the country. She was about to ask why when he suddenly sped up. She gasped in shock and pulled herself tight against his back. She felt his laugh rumble through his frame. She sighed as they continued to speed through the country. Where ever they were going, Jaden sure wanted to get there fast.

xXx

They were fifteen minutes into the country when Alexis decided it was time to ask Jaden if they were almost there. Just when she opened her mouth to ask, he spoke up.

"There it is." Alexis turned her head and gasped at what she saw. Alone for miles sat a beautiful two story ranch-style house. The house was painted white and had pale blue shutters. A wood porch ran all the way around the house. A barn, painted the same as the house, was a few hundred yards away from it. In the driveway was a black Volvo with silver trim. A lot of land surrounded the house. Alexis assumed the owner of the house also owned all of the land. Jaden turned into the driveway. He parked off to the side, away from the house and turned off the bike. Alexis loosened her hold on him. "So he's already gone," Jaden mumbled to himself. Alexis was about to ask him who he was talking about when the side door to the house flew open. They looked at the house.

Standing in the doorway were two little girls; they appeared to be five and were identical twins. They had blonde hair and green eyes. One of them had her hair up in pigtails; the tails were held by pink ribbons. The other one had her hair held up into a ponytail by a yellow ribbon. The girls looked at them curiously. Jaden chuckled and removed his helmet. He shook his head to get rid of his helmet hair. He looked at the girls and smiled; his helmet was resting on the bike between his legs. The girls stared at him in shock then they squealed and jumped off of the porch. They charged at him. He laughed and got off the bike. He left his helmet sitting on the bike. He knelled down and scooped up the charging girls. Alexis got off the bike and took off her helmet. She set the helmet where Jaden set his and ran her fingers through her hair, getting rid of her helmet hair. She walked over to Jaden and the girls. They were clinging to his shirt as he balanced each girl with only one arm each. Jaden turned and smiled at Alexis.

"Alexis, I'd like you to meet Mia," he bounced the girl with pigtails, "And Zoey." He bounced the girl with the ponytail. "My little sisters." She stared at him in shock.

"You never told me you had little sisters," she said. He nodded.

"I know." There was some emotion under his tone but Alexis couldn't decipher it.

"Who is this, big brawder?" Mia asked.

"This is Alexis," he answered. Mia and Zoey looked at Alexis closely. She smiled warmly at them.

"Hey you two," she greeted. They smiled at her.

"Elwhoa, Alexis!" they both greeted her simultaneously. Jaden and she both laughed slightly at them. Alexis reached out and took Mia from Jaden.

"Mia? Zoey?" a woman's voice called from the door. They turned to see who it was. Standing in the doorway was a woman with brown hair up in a messy pony-tail. She had brown eyes. The woman appeared to be thirty eight years old and was wearing a purple cotton robe. Under her robe she was wearing white pajama pants. Purple, fuzzy slippers adorned her feet. On her hip the woman balanced a little two year old boy. He clung to her robe and looked at them; his amber eyes darted over them, shy and afraid. His orange hair was standing out in different directions. Alexis assumed he was just pulled out of bed. The woman gasped when she saw Jaden. "Jaden?" she asked taking a step away from the door and closer them. Jaden chuckled and nodded. He turned toward her.

"Morning, Mom," he greeted smiling. Jaden's mom smiled and quickly ran down the steps toward them. She wrapped one arm around her son in an awkward hug, as both them were holding little kids. Jaden hugged her back. They pulled away from each other. Jaden's mom was smiling brightly; it reminded Alexis of Jaden's smile, though it didn't make her feel the same as his does.

"What are you doing here? I thought you were with your friends from Duel Academy for the summer," Jaden's mom asked. He nodded.

"Well," he readjusted his hold on Zoey, shifting her slightly on his hip, "I am actually. We decided to come to Ochi City for the summer," he explained. She laughed.

"Not much for you to see then, huh, sweetie?" she asked in a teasing tone. He smiled.

"Not really." She chuckled a little. Finally she noticed Alexis was there. She turned and looked at her, and then she looked at Jaden.

"Sweetheart, who's this?" She pointed at Alexis. Jaden smiled and walked over to her side.

"Mom, this is Alexis," he introduced her. "Alexis, this is my mom." Alexis smiled at her and extended her hand toward her, balancing Mia with one arm.

"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Yuki," she greeted. Mrs. Yuki smiled at her and walked over to me. She wrapped her arm around her in the same awkward way she did Jaden.

"Please, call me Lauren." Alexis smiled and hugged her back. Lauren pulled away from her and took a step back. The little boy on her hip cocked his head to the side and looked at Alexis curiously.

"Hey there buddy," she greeted him, smiling at him. He smiled at her; he giggled and then buried his face into Lauren's robe. Jaden and Lauren chuckled.

"That's Tommy, my little brother," Jaden explained. Alexis nodded. Lauren looked between them.

"Well, let's get inside. I was making breakfast when Mia and Zoey came running downstairs screaming 'Aunt Shelbi's here! Aunt Shelbi's here!'" she explained as she headed for the house. Tommy looked over her shoulder at Alexis. Jaden and her followed after Lauren.

"Well, it was her bike, Mommy," Mia explained.

"Yeah, but big brawder is way better than Aunt Shelbi," Zoey agreed. Lauren stopped at the door and looked at her with a playful glare.

"Well, you better not tell her that," Lauren said, "She'll be devastated!"

xXx

Jaden's POV

"Zoey, please use your fork to eat your pancakes, not your hands," Mom scolded Zoey, who was currently trying to shove a fist full of syrup covered pancakes into her mouth. She pouted but set down the ball of cooked batter and syrup. Mom sighed; I chuckled; Alexis giggled. It was almost eight o'clock and already the three little kids were syrup covered. "What am I going to do with you three?" Mom asked, sighing. I laughed and picked up my napkin. I leaned across the table and began whipping off Zoey's mouth.

"No worries, Mom, I'll clean them up," I promised. She smiled at me but shook her head.

"No," she said, standing up and grabbing her dirtied plate, "I'll clean them up. But could you be a dear and clean off the table?" I nodded and crumpled up my napkin into a ball.

"Sure thing." I tossed the napkin ball into the trashcan.

"Two points!" Mia yelled throwing her hands up in the air. Zoey followed in suit. The two of them burst into a fit of giggles. Tommy also shot his hands up into the air like them, but his hand hit his sippy-cup full of milk and it fell to the ground. Milk covered the floor.

"Woopsey," he said as he looked down at the mess he made. I smiled at him.

"Woopsey is right, but it's okay," I reassured him. I pushed back my chair and stood up. I walked around the table and picked up his cup. I set the cup back on his high chair. "Alexis, throw me that towel next to you." She grabbed the towel that was sitting on the table next to her and tossed it over to me. "Thank you." She smiled at me and set her plate on top of mine and stood up with both in hand. Mom walked over to her and took the plates from her.

"Allow me, sweetie," Mom said, smiling warmly at Alexis. She smiled back.

"Thanks, Lauren." I looked back down at the milk and began cleaning it up, a smile tugging at the corner of my lips. I was extremely pleased at how welcoming my family was being toward Alexis. I knew they'd love her, just like I do. Suddenly I felt something made of plastic crashed onto my head. Some cold liquid poured out of it and ran through my hair and down my back.

"Woopsey," Tommy said again. I sighed and picked his sippy cup off of my head. I handed it to Mom as she passed me on her way to the kitchen.

"Take it, before he makes a bigger mess." She chuckled but took the cup. I was almost done whipping up the mess when something else was on my head. It was soft…and fuzzy…and very warm. It was moving in circles on my head and down shirt, whipping up all off the milk that spilled out of Tommy's cup and onto me. "Thank you," I said, smiling. I knew who was doing it.

"You're welcome," Alexis said. I heard a smile in her voice. I finished whipping up the milk and tossed the dirty towel in the direction of the basement door, where the washer and dryer were. Mom came around the counter corner; her hands were on her hips and her eyes were scolding me.

"What? It's by the door," I defended myself. She sighed and bent down to pick up the towel. She opened the door and threw it down the stairs. "Hold up!" I yelled. She left the door open and headed back to the sink. I heard water running into the sink, then clanking of dirty dishes. I reached up and placed my hands on Alexis', to halt their movement. I wrapped my hands around each of hers and pulled them away from the towel; I pulled her hands around my back so her arms were wrapped around my waist. I held her hands with one of mine while my other one reached up and pulled the towel from my hair. I chucked the towel down the stairs and leaned back against Alexis, resting my head just under hers. She looked down at me and smiled; I smiled in return. Mia and Zoey watched us closely. I reached my head up, straining, but I succeeded with myself appointed mission as I pressed my lips lightly to hers. Mia and Zoey squealed and giggled. They jumped out of their chairs and ran right upstairs, still giggling all the way.

"Kissy face," Tommy said looking down at us. I chuckled and leaned back into Alexis. She rested her cheek on the top of my head and sighed contently. Mom came around the corner of the counter again. She closed the door to the basement and looked at us. She was drying her hands with a dish towel. She didn't find anything odd about our little embrace.

"So, what do you plan on doing today?" she asked. I shrugged and looked at her.

"I was planning on just hanging out here, telling Alexis a few things, stuff of that kind," I explained. She nodded and looked over in the direction of the fridge, which held a large calendar where wrote important events so she wouldn't forget.

"You know, there's a tournament today." She looked back at us. I smiled at her.

"Oh, I know. That's where all of our friends are going." She cocked her eyebrow at me in confusion.

"And you're not going?" I shook my head.

"Nope." She sighed and picked up her cup of coffee off of the counter. She took a sip of it.

"Hey, Jaden," Alexis said after a moment. I looked at her. She was looking down at me curiously.

"Yeah?"

"Please tell me the gang knows where we are." I laughed and nodded.

"Yeah, I left Zane a note."

xXx

Narrative POV

Hey Zane!

Alexis and me went out for the day; we'll be back later tonight. Have fun at the tournament!

Jaden

Zane reread the note Jaden had sent him out loud for the gang to hear. Atticus was less than pleased about this. In fact, he was storming back and forth in their room.

"How could they just leave like that? I mean, the day of the tournament, which we've been planning to go to all week!" he repeated once again. Chazz and Aster rolled their eyes. Zane sighed. The rest of the gang was in the hallway. He looked over at Chazz and Aster.

"Go wait in the hall," he ordered. They looked at him, shrugged, and stood up. They walked off toward the door and entered the hall. Zane stood up and grabbed Atticus' shirt collar. He gagged and turned to glare at Zane. "The tournament is going to start soon, let's get moving." Zane gestured for Atticus to go first. He scowled at him but walked ahead. He whipped out his cell phone and began texting someone. Zane followed behind him. As he flipped off the lights, Zane caught site of what he was texting.

To: Lexy

From: The Master of Love

I can't believe you ran off with your boyfriend! You're going to miss the tournament! –insert angry smiley face-

Sigh, oh well. Have fun, I guess. But you're really going to miss something…

Zane chuckled quietly to myself and closed the door behind him. They all headed down the stairs where they would meet Dr. Crowler, who refused to wait in the hall.

'You're wrong, Atticus. We're the ones that are going to miss something,' Zane thought smiling.

xXx

Yay! I completed the chapter! And, actually, I like this one better than the original. Shocking, I know. But this one has more Jaden x Alexis moments in it! Yay me! Hehe…

Anyway, remember to review! Zay make me happy! : )

1-Okay, I know Japan is an island country and probably doesn't have that much country side. I don't know for sure 'cause we haven't studied Japan yet. But, when I was thinking this up, I was thinking it in America, like Colorado or something, but I went with Japan when I posted it but I liked the country idea too much just to lose it. So yes, I gave Japan, or at least the area around Ochi City, a lot of land for country. No flames for it please, I gave you my reason behind it so…yeah.
