Alex woke to the smell of coffee and someone shaking her shoulder.
"Five more minutes my angel." She murmured and turned to sleep further.
"Alexandra Rose Danvers!" came the yell.
Alex was awake immediately, jumped up straight and hit the back of her head hard on the headboard.
"What!" She yelled rubbing her head and focusing on the blond girl standing in front of her bed with her hands on her hips.
"You have a boyfriend, don't you" Sarah accused her.
Before Alex could answer Caleb came barging into Alex's room wearing only his pajama pants.
"I heard someone yell." He said.
"Well," Alex said glaring at Sarah and still rubbing her head. "your girlfriend sure have a way of waking someone."
"Yes and your sister called m-" Sarah started but was interrupted by Alex.
"Well yes. Why don't the two of you leave my room so that I can get dressed" she said getting out of the bed and pushing the couple out of her room.
Alex closed the door and leaned against the door, she sighed. She know that Sarah was going to drill her about what she said. Oh well, maybe it is time that I tell someone, Alex thought and walked to her bathroom to take a shower.
Dressed in a strapless floral dress that ended on her ankles, her favorite pair of leather slip-on sandals, her hair braided and hang down her back with the minimum make-up Alex made her way down the stairs to the kitchen, praying that her mother was still asleep.
Caleb and Sarah were already at the table eating breakfast.
"Wow" Sarah said when Alex entered through the door.
"Wow indeed. You look beautiful sis." Caleb said, got up and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
Alex blushed and walked to pour herself a glass of orange juice. "Thanks" she said shyly.
"So I understand that you ladies have a very full schedule today." Caleb said taking a bite of his toast.
"Oh yes, we're going to shop till we drop, then we're going to get up and shop some more." Sarah replied full of excitement.
"Women" Caleb murmured under his breath and smiled at his girlfriend.
Alex looked at the two of them across from her. They really did make a lovely couple, the one light and the other dark. And her brother was truly happy and for that she was Sarah truly grateful.
"Alex, if you are ready we can go?" Sarah interrupted her thoughts.
"Let met just grab my purse." Alex said and quickly ran to her room, collecting her purse and car keys.
Caleb walked the girls to Alex's Volvo first opening the door for Alex, giving her a kiss on her cheek, and then walked around the car opening the passenger door for Sarah. He pulled her close and gave her a passionate kiss.
Alex cleared her throat and looked at the two. "If the two of you are quite finished."
"Jealous?" Caleb asked.
"Never" Alex teased.
Caleb helped Sarah in the car, leaned forward to give her another kiss. "Love you." He whispered.
"Love you too." said Sarah and run her hand over his unshaven cheek.
"Enjoy your shopping ladies." Caleb winked and closed the door.
Alex started her car and drove out of the driveway.
"Do you mind if we go and pick Kate up at Pogue's? She phoned this morning saying that she decided that she wanted to join us after all. Probably afraid that she was going to miss out on loads of fun."
"Sure, no problem" Alex said
"Oh we forgot to tell you. We're going to have a movie night tonight at your place." Sarah chatted on.
Alex only smile mentally as she already knew that. "Sounds like fun." Was the only thing she said.
After they picked Kate up they headed for the mall. The girls chatted non-stop about everything and their boyfriends. They started at the one end of the mall, never skipping a single store and walked their way through to the other side.
By lunch time Alex was so tired but she also never had so much fun. They were sitting at a table at one of the restaurants waiting for their food, when Sarah dropped the bomb
"So I think that Alex have a boyfriend." Sarah said to Kate.
"What! Who?" Kate exclaimed.
"Well this morning when I went to wake her up she told me "just five more minutes my angel.""
"Alex?" Kate turned to the girl next to her.
"What?" Alex kept herself dumb.
"Do you?" Kate asked again.
"Do I what?"
"Have a boyfriend." Both Sarah and Kate yelled.
The waiter appeared with their food and Alex waited till he left before answering the girls. "Yes.
"Who, How When?" Came the questions from the girls.
"I can't tell you who, because I need to tell Caleb first and we've been dating for the past five months now."
"So have you done it yet?" Kate asked boldly.
Alex sighed and groaned "No. He wants our first time to be special."
"Aww, that's so sweet." Sarah said.
"Yeh sweet." Came is sarcastically from Alex.
"Do I disperse some frustration?" Sarah asked.
"I'm just a bit frustrated. He always stops before anything can go further saying that it should be special. Well I'm tired of waiting." Wow Alex could not belief that she just blurted that out.
"Maybe you should take the first step." Kate suggested.
"How? I'm not familiar with the role of seduction?" Alex said as they paid for their food and left the food court.
Kate and Sarah looked at each other and giggled as they pushed their new friend in the Victoria Secrets store.
"Firstly you need the right attire. No man can resist a beautiful girl and sexy underwear." Kate said and took a black and pink lace panty and bra set and handed it to Alex.
"Then you must set the mood, candles and music." Sara added and looked at a red push up bra.
"If he haven't taken you by then, then there is seriously something wrong with him." Kate said as they paid for their stuff and headed towards the exit.
"Promise me you guys will not tell Caleb and Pogue." Alex begged the two girls.
The girls promised and was almost at the exit when the ran into Aaron Abbot and his friends.
"Well, well, well. Say Alex why don't you come with me and I'll show you a good time." He smirked and looked at his buddies.
Alex just ignored him and tried to side step him, anger slowly building up in her.
"Why don't you leave us alone Aaron." Kate said.
"I wasn't talking to you" he said to her and then turned back to Alex running his hand up and down her arm. "Come on Alex you know you want to."
Alex closed her eyes briefly then opened them again. Stepping closer she ran her and over his chest. She smirked again and Sarah and Kate just stood there to shocked to do anything thinking that Alex has lost her mind completely.
"Your right." She said sweetly. "I always wanted to do this." With that she grabbed his arms and kneed him in the groin. Aaron double over with pain and Alex turned towards her friends and tried to walk away when he grabbed her arm.
"You will regret this, you bitch."
Alex made a fist, turned around and hit him so hard in the face that she could hear the bone in his nose break. Letting her go he grabbed his nose, blood pouring out of his nose. Alex walked right in his face her eyes flashed with anger and she had a hard time to contain herself not to use her power on him.
"Just remember this Abbot," she said poking him in the chest with one finger. "next time it will be more than just your nose I will break. Lets go." She said to Kate and Sarah who still stood there in shock.
Alex internally rattled, she had never lost her temper like that before and she'd never been violent before either.
"Alex? Are you okay?" Sarah asked wrapping an arm around her friends shoulder.
"I'm, I'm fine. But do you mind taking me to the ER first. I think I might have broken my hand." Alex said not sure what hurt the most, hear hand or her head.
Sure sweetie." Sarah looked at Kate walking on the other side of Alex.
"Remember me never to get on her bad side." Kate said.
Suddenly all three started to giggle, the whole incident hilarious funny.
At the hospital Sarah and Kate was waiting in the waiting room for Alex while she had her hand x-rayed and saw the doctor.
"So who do you think Alex's boyfriend is?" Kate asked her friend.
Sarah shook her head. "I really don't know. I mean she is always with us or at the rink and I don't think that it is someone there."
They sat in silence for a while watching the people walking by when Sarah suddenly sat up.
"Oh no. It can't be?"
"What, what?" Kate demanded.
"I think I know who Alex's boyfriend is. And if I'm right Caleb is going to flip."
"Who?"
"Reid" Sarah said.
"No!" Kate clamped her hand in front of her mouth.
"Think about it." Sara said. "Alex said that she's been dating this boy for about five months now. Look at Reid's behavior the past few months. Then Reid is always disappearing and nobody knows where he is." Kate nod and Sarah continued. "Remember yesterday at Nicky's Alex got a message and left and soon after Reid left as well."
Kate thought about it for a minute. "You know you might be right, but how are we going to proof it."
"Just leave it to me." Sarah smiled mysteriously.
They talked for awhile about Sarah's plan until they saw Alex came out of the ER, her hand wrapped in a bandage.
"What's the verdict?" Sarah asked first.
"Well it's not broken. Aaron Abbot can thank his lucky stars. It is only bruised, the doctor said that it might hurt for a few days but if I keep it wrapped it should be fine."
Alex gave her car keys to Sarah. "You'll have to drive, I don't think I will be able to drive with this hand." In fact she had a splitting headache and could hardly see out of her eyes.
In the car Alex was very quite and rested her head on the back of the seat. Her head hurt like hell, all she wanted to do was have a nice day with her friends until that prick of an Abbot came and ruined it, now she had a migraine.
Sarah cast a worried look at her and then looked in the review mirror at Kate.
Kate leaned over and placed a soft hand on Alex's shoulder. "Your okay hun? Is your hand hurting much?"
Alex kept her eyes closed and shook hear head. "Just have a slight headache." She lied because by now there was a marching band beating in her head.
"Why don't you rest for a while? I'll wake you when we're at home." Sarah suggested.
Alex smiled. "Thanks your guys are the best."
Alex woke up when they was near the Danvers Mansion. Her headache was not gone but bearable. Sarah parked the car next to Caleb's Mustang. The girls got out and colleted their shopping.
"I see all the boys are already here." Kate said pointing at the yellow Ducati and black Hummer.
"Well we would have been here hours ago if it was not for that asshole of an Abbot." Alex said and opened the front door. She could hear the boys in the entertainment room. Sarah walked in the room first followed by Kate and then Alex.
"Oh look who has decided to return to home?" Tyler said as the girls entered the room. All four boys were playing X-box.
Sarah and Kate rushed to their respective boyfriends and gave them a kiss.
Reid and Alex just looked into each others eyes knowing that they will share their kiss later.
Pogue was the first to notice the bandage on Alex's hand. "What happened to your hand Alex?"
All four boys attend was directed to Alex, first her hand then her face.
"Let's rather say who happened to her hand." Kate said.
" Alex?" Caleb said in a demanding tone, waiting for an answer from her.
"It was Aaron Abbot, okay." Alex said.
All four boys were immediately on their feet.
"I'm going to rib his head of." Reid said first.
"You can do that after I've killed him." Caleb said very angry.
"Let's go kill the bastard. Baby-boy get your keys." Pogue also added.
"If your macho men are looking for him, you might want to try the ER first." Sarah suggested.
"The ER?" Reid asked confused.
"Well you see, Alex hurt her hand when she punched Aaron and broke his nose." Kate explained.
"Alex what!" Caleb looked with disbelief at his sister, so Sarah took it upon herself to tell the whole story to them.
Afterward Tyler walked up to Alex gave her a kiss on her cheek and wrapped his arms around her and gave her a hug.
"You are my new hero." He said.
They all laughed and with everyone's attention turned to Alex and Tyler Reid mouthed the words "You're okay?" to Alex, she only nodded slightly.
"So what did your ladies bought today?" Pogue asked and looked at the bags on the floor.
"Oh look, Victoria Secrets." Reid joked.
Sarah smiled and winked at Kate, time for her plan to begin. "Yeh, you should see what Alex has bought." Kate said.
"I can't wait." Reid murmured. Alex heard it and blushed.
"What did you say?" Caleb asked.
"I said I can't wait for the girls to stop japing so that we can eat, I'm starving here."
"Why don't you guys eat so long? I'm just going to change." Alex said and before anyone could say a world she was out of the room.
