Oh yeah, A lot of Clark and Alexis info is in this chapter so pay attention (: Gah, I watched MIOBI tonight—Great show—weird topics that tend to make me have to relate back to flashpoint in SOME way.

Enjoy.

"I'm sorry girls, but I have to leave." Sam's mom shook her head as she walked into the living room. "No Grandma! Please stay!" Alexis begged. She shook her head, "Girls I have a flight—I really have to go. I'll come visit soon though, I love you both very much."

Two days had passed since Christmas.

"I'll miss you Mom." Sam told his mother as he wrapped his arms around her. "We'll miss having you around, Mrs. Braddock, come back anytime." Jules said as she hugged her while holding Carly in her arms.

"I'll miss each and everyone of you very much. Thank you so much for letting me spend Christmas with you all." Everyone smiled and waved as Sam carried her bags out to the taxi that pulled up outside the house.

"Bye Mom." He said as he hugged her one last time and she climbed in. "You take care of that family of yours." She said, waving goodbye. He nodded and smiled as he rejoined them on the front step.

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mom—." Alexis said as she found Jules sitting alone in her bedroom. Sam was out in the backyard with Alexis, looking at her new gun, and Carly was asleep in her crib.

"Yeah Sweetie?" She asked, sitting back against the pillows.

Her eyes wandered for a moment, "I was just wondering if Clark could come over."

Jules smiled, "Sure thing—But—."

"I know, doors opened."

Jules giggled, "Smart girl—But yeah, he can come over."

"Thanks mom." She replied, hugging Jules tightly and skipping back to her room.

----------------------------

"Hey Clark." She said sweetly into the phone.

***

"Hey babe, how's it going?" He asked. They had become very close after almost a year of dating. Alexis knew she was in love, she just knew it. He was the most perfect guy in the world and they already knew they wanted to get married one day.

***

"Just wanted to know if you wanted to come over. Mom's going to be on my case, but she'll get over it."

***

"Jules is pretty protective—have you talked to her yet?"

***

Alexis sighed, "Clark—I'm only 16—do you really think my parents will let me get engaged—at 16?"

***

"It's our choice! They can't hold us back. I love you, and you know that.

***

She sighed once more, "I know, I love you too. It's just—I'm not sure if I'm ready to be engaged and have my life planned for me! I mean, I'm only in high school!"

***

"So am I—It's not like we're quitting school or anything! We just want to be together, right?"

***

"Yeah—Sure. So what did your dad say?"

***

There was a pause, "Lexi—I think we should just do it and get it over with. They won't care—All I know is I love you and I want to be with you."

***

She smiled wearily, "Me too—Just come on over."

***

"See you soon, I love you." He told her.

***

"I love you too."

She hung up the phone quickly. She knew there was no way she could even hint to Jules or Sam that she wanted to get engaged—in high school. She continued to get ready right until the moment he came to the door.

Jules fought her urge to go walk past them as Alexis answered the door. She instead, sat on hr bed and watched what was going on through the reflection of a mirror in the hallway.

"Hey Babe." He said quietly, pulling her into a passionate kiss as he made his way inside. She smiled as she kissed back, "Hey." She whispered. He took her hand and walked farther into the house. She started to feel almost uncomfortable as Jules walked out in front of them. "Hey Clark, how are you?"

"Good, Mrs. Braddock, How are you?"

"I'm good, so you two—I got my eyes on you." She raised her eyebrows and laughed as the two smiled and laughed and continued to Alexis' room. Jules continued her work in the kitchen as she watched Sam with Jessica as they shot at trees, and Clark and Alexis sat on her bed.

-----------------

"Do you want to talk to her together?"

"No—I mean—Just let me talk to her tonight. I'll be online and we can talk about this once my parents are asleep. He nodded, "You know I love you right?" She smiled, "I think you said that a few times."

Clark pulled her into a kiss that she returned. That was of course until Jules coughed in the doorway. The pulled apart and looked around as she finally walked away.

"So—When are we going to do it?" Clark asked, taking Alexis' hand in his.

"Clark don't you think that's getting a little too serious?" Alexis asked worriedly, "I mean—arent we just a little young for getting engaged and just going through all of this when we're only in high school?"

He shook his head, "Lexi, we cant hold back—we both know we love each other, so why hide it? Age is just a number, right?"

She nodded, "You're right, I don't know why I'm being so stupid about this. I'll talk to her—I promise."

"Good—And I promise that I'll try to slow down. I can see you aren't as ready for all of this as I am, and I promise that we can take things slower. Just talk to her—The worst she can say is no."

"Yeah—And thanks, I really appreciate that." She told him as she pulled her fingers through his hair, "You're the best boyfriend in the world." He smiled at her, "You're the best girlfriend in the world."

-----------------------------------

"Jules—Sweetie, the kids a natural." Sam said as both he and Jessica walked into the house. Jessica ran upstairs as they started to talk. "The kid's like a natural shooter!"

"Is that a good thing?" Jules joked. He smiled and nodded.

"Sammy?"

He paused as he pulled away from the refrigerator he just opened, "Yeah?" He asked. She kept her eyes peeled at the two teenagers, sitting on Alexis' bed. "Do you think Alexis and Clark have you know—." Sam chuckled as he wrapped his arms around his wife, "Sweetie—I'm sure she's fine. Anyways, with that gift you gave her, it was like telling her to have sex." Jules giggled as he kissed her gently, "Well, I would rather be safe than sorry." They both laughed, even though they both knew it was serious. "I just don't want her to regret anything." Jules told him, "Like I did." He placed his hands evenly on both of her shoulders, "Jules—We trust Clark, we know his family and how well he was raised. If they did choose to do anything, at least we know we can trust our daughter and Ed Lane's son." Jules grinned, "Someone sure likes being on the teenager's side. You're supposed to be turning her away from this." He shook his head, "All I'm saying is he's a good kid, and we know he would never hurt our daughter." Jules nodded as she placed her head on his chest, "I guess you're right."

After a few hours of lying around together, watching television, Clark finally said goodbye, as Alexis promised him she would talk to Jules.

------------------------------------

That night as Alexis was getting ready for bed, Jules came and knocked at her door.

"Hey Sweetie." She said, "Can we talk?"

Alexis had a feeling this wasn't going to be the easiest talk on earth. "Sure." She said, allowing her to come in and sit down on her bed. She sat down right next to her, "Whats up?"

Jules smiled at her for a moment, "I just think you should hold off on getting this serious with Clark. I don't want you to do anything you will regret."

Alexis stared at her for a moment, then actually listened to what she had to say.

"I know that you think Clark may be the right one for you, and you're ready to have sex, get married and start a family before you're twenty, but sweetie—listen to me, the chances of that going smoothly are very unlikely. It's not that I don't like Clark, I do, It's just—there are many more guys out there, and as you grow up, you two are going to spread apart very easily. I want your first time to be with someone really special that you know you really care about, and you aren't getting into something you know you aren't ready for."

"But Mom—I love him." She said it suddenly. Jules was completely convincing her to break up with him under stress.

"Sweetheart I know that, but you have to trust me on this—."

"What if I said we already did it?" Alexis knew she had just straight up lied to her mom.

Jules took a deep breath, "You—you what?"

"I had sex with Clark—There you go." She continued to lie.

Jules nodded as she couldn't even look her daughter in the eye, "Are you serious?" She could almost see that Alexis was lying, but she wasn't sure.

Alexis glanced up at her for a moment. There was no way she could outsmart a negotiator. She bit her lip, as she couldn't even speak.

"You need to tell me sweetie, I won't be mad." She could see the hesitation Alexis gave off.

Alexis shook her head, "No—but he wants to, and I don't know what to say without making him mad."

"Well, what do you want to say?"

"I don't know—Just that I'm not ready, and that I just want to be sure about things before I do something I can never take back, something I'll regret."

Jules smiled, "Tell him exactly just what you told me."

"Do you think that'll work?" She asked. Jules nodded, "Yeah, I do. Sweetie, I'm really proud of you for telling me the truth though, I'm glad we can talk about things like this."

Alexis smiled as she wrapped her arms around her mom. "Me too—I really don't know what I would do without you."

Jules giggled, "Well, anything else we need to talk about?"

"Yeah—Sorta." She had to break Clark's question to her. "Clark and I want to get engaged, what do you think?"

"No way in hell—am I going to be Ed's sister-in-law." She said, standing up from Alexis' bed. Alexis nodded, "Fine."

"Well—I'm off—Enjoy my Christmas present if you ever really think you are ready and you just don't want to tell me."

Alexis giggled, "Don't worry—you'll be the first I'll tell." Jules nodded, "I better be." She walked over and kissed Alexis on the forehead and pulled her into a tight hug. "Goodnight sweetheart." She said as she pulled away slowly. "Goodnight Mom." She said as Jules opened the door to leave. "Hey—Hold up." She yelled, calling her back into the room before the door even closed. "Thanks." Alexis told her. She hugged her once more until Jules finally went back to her bedroom where Sam was lying in bed and Carly was fast asleep in her crib.

"Everything okay?" Sam asked as she climbed up next to him. "Yeah—Everything's fine." She kissed him gently before pulling herself close to him.

-------

"I'm not ready and that's that." Alexis told him over webcam. He nodded, "I understand, so are we still good though? We'll just be smart on this, and wait." She smiled and nodded, "I love you." He smiled, "I love you too."
