Chapter 2: Observing from a far.
Later that afternoon Lexi was sitting by the pool doing her home work on her laptop. Meanwhile James wearing a tree hat and sat in the bushes watching her. Suddenly when Logan was walking by he noticed the familiar tree hat and somehow he guessed who was wearing it. "Um James what the heck are you doing behind that bush spying on Lexi", he said as James grabbed his shirt and pulling him down behind the bush. "Geez Logan why don't you just it announce it to the whole world", he whispered. "Oh and I'm not spying on Lex I'm just observing her from a far ", said James. "Ok then what ever", said Logan smiling as he got up to leave. "Hey Logan before you go I want to ask you a question, how did you know that you liked Camille", asked James? "Well after we had that giant party it was a week after she had stopped talking to me that's when I realized that I liked her and now she is my girlfriend", said Logan smiling. "Why do you like Lexi ", asked Logan? "That's what's confusing me the most one day Lexi's here and nothing changed but when she left then came back its like she's a different person", replied James. Suddenly Mr. Bitters walked out of his office and came outside to where Lexi was sitting. "Were you expecting any boxes today because if you were they just arrived and I want them out of my lobby this minute", said Mr. Bitters. After he said that Lexi got up and grabbed her stuff and both James and Logan noticed she had a giant smile on her face. "I'm going to see if she needs help I'll see you back at the apartment", said James as he got up taking off his tree hat and throwing it at Logan. As he entered the Lobby he could see 5 large boxes next to Lexi as she was about to pick one up. "Hey Lex need some help", he asked as he walked up to her? "Hey Jamez that would be great thanks she said smiling as a piece of her hair fell on her face. As they walked to the elevator there was an awkward silence until James spoke. "So what are in all of these boxes any ways", he asked? "Well three of these boxes are my clothes and a few music binders and that one box you have is my Video camera and my home movies and the box I have has my childhood photo album and my all my favorite CD's said Lexi. "James can I ask you a serious question", asked Lexi? "Sure Lex what's up replied James. "Did you and the guys really think I would have considered moving to Iceland", asked Lexi? "Well yeah only because you were in Minnesota for 2 months and when you told us your dad and his new family were moving we thought you were going to go with them said James looking down at the floor in the elevator. "You guys really thought I would leave well I guess I kind of thought the same thing but it was nice being with my dad but truth is I like being here better then with my dad "replied Lexi. "Okay it's my time to ask you a question Lexi ", said James. "Why did you changed, asked James. "You really want to know ok I'll tell you. So the truth is that I wanted to change for two reasons 1: because I wanted too and 2: because it was time for a change. But just because I changed doesn't mean I'm going to become a snotty girly girl like the Jennifer's I'm going to stay me and let's face it I'm a crazy girl", she said with a laugh. Soon the elevator was on the second floor and lexi got out leaving James feeling more confused about his feelings toward her.
