The vows had been said and she and Danny had been blessed. They'd also asked the priest to bless them all as a family. Ok it seemed cheesy but Alice wanted everyone part of this. She and Danny couldn't be happier. Especially since Ethan was here this time and of course the baby too. They were in the gazebo at the moment and Danny was looking at her hungrily. He came over. Made a turn around motion with his finger. He smiled appreciatively when she did.

"Would you mind if I whistle at you? Normally I wouldn't but that dress. God Alice the moment I saw you all the air left my lungs and I'm still waiting for it to return."

Alice smiled. "Go for it!"

He gave a small whistle.

"That the best you can do!" she asked.

"Well, I didn't want to embarrass you but seeing as I didn't do it loud enough.."

"No Danny." she giggled.

He let out a high pitched whistle.

Everyone looked. Alice blushed beetroot red. Danny smiled a self satisfied smile. "Loud enough?"

She nodded then laughed. Everyone went back to what they'd been doing before. He pulled her in his arms. Winked at Shauna. The music immediately changed.

So many 25th's of December

Just as many 22nd of July's

And we're still holding it together

It only comes down to you and I

I know you can still remember

Things we said right from the start

When we said that this could be special

I'm keeping those words deep down in my heart

(-)

Another year has gone by

And I'm still the one by your side

After everything that's gone by

There's still no one saying goodbye

Though another year has gone by

(-)

I never been much for occasions

You never let another birthday go by

Without announcing how much you love me

But the truth was always there

Right there in your eyes

And we're still holding hands when we're walking

Acting like we've only just met

But how can that be - when there's so much history

I guess that's how true lovers can get

(-)

Another year has gone by

And I'm still the one by your side

After everything that's gone by

There's still no one saying goodbye

Though another year has gone by

Danny and Alice danced in their own little world. "Yet another year has gone by." he murmured in her ear.

Lexi sat on a chair at the corner of the gazebo. Her elbows rested on a table. Her face in her hands. "C'mon Lex don't ruin this for mum and dad!" she whispered taking some deep breaths. God she felt ill!

She looked over at her parents, they were wrapped up in each other. Dancing. Looking deeply in each others eyes. Sneaking a kiss every so often.

She tried to look normal, she didn't want to ruin this for them. So she still felt ill a little bit. No need to ruin their day.

"You ok?" a man asked. She turned and saw Tristan Evans friend looking at her.

She nodded. "I was ill last night and I'm feeling a little hot and tired."

"I know a quiet shady area if you wanna go and chill."

She looked at him suspiciously. "Don't worry it's just over there. They'll be able to see us. I'm a good guy!" he pointed to the area.

She nodded. "I'll tell my someone where I'm going then."

Lexi went to her nana and James. Pointed to an area then Tristan. Mrs Elliott shook her head. Lexi said something and she relented. James glared at Tristan issuing a clear warning. Touch her and your dead.

Tristan's eye's narrowed back. He'd do what he wanted. Regardless of who told him not too!

She walked back over to him. She did look good in that dress. He smiled appreciatively.

"We gotta stay there or else!" she muttered. They sat in the cool area and they saw James eyes on them. She waved. She started feeling better almost instantly the cool did her the world of good.

"Thanks." she smiled at him.

"No bother." he replied. "You feel better?"

She nodded. Took some deep breaths of cool air. The sickness had completely passed.

He noticed James walk towards his wife and deal with a baby. Tristan smiled. "You look nice in your dress." she wore a simple cream dress it seemed plain to her.

"Thank you."

They sat in silence. He wanted to kiss her.

"you'll be going home soon I suppose."

"Yep back to Bristol."

"No summer romance for you then."

"No." she scoffed and laughed. Summer romances were cheesy.

"I'm a little old for summer romances anyway, otherwise I'd romance you. I'm 18. Summer romances are for kids don't you think? "

"Yeah I'm 17. Far to old for a summer romance."

He smiled. "Do you have a boyfriend back home?"

She shook her head.

"Did I mention you look beautiful in that dress!"

"You said nice before."

"That word was far too tame."

He looked still no sign of James. He touched her face lightly. "Do you mind if I do something?"

She shook her head.

He lowered his head to hers. Their lips met and held she felt nothing even though he kissed her so surely. Ethan's face popped in her head, suddenly she melted. She had this feelings coursing through her she didn't understand. Things she'd never felt before. She forgot she was kissing Tristan, thought it was Ethan with her and kissed him back with abandonment. Tristan moved his head and kissed her deeper. He grabbed her hand and pulled her in the shade of some trees. He pressed her up against it and just kept kissing her. His hands were running down her arms. "Mmmm Et….." she started. Suddenly he was pulled from her and saw Tristan fly across the floor. What the hell Tristan? She wondered. She was kissing Ethan wasn't she?

"What the hell are you doing?" Ethan spat to Tristan angrily. Fists clenched. He looked ready to tear him apart.

Tristan stood up went up to his face. "What we were doing is nothing to do with you!" Tristan pushed him.

"Don't push me I'm this close!" Ethan warned.

"What you gonna do boy?" Ethan went back up to his face fist raised.

"No Eth Don't." Lexi stood between them.

"Your not taking advantage of her!" he looked at him malevolently.

"Whose; taking advantage. This is mutual. We're both adults. You don't have to protect her. She knew what she was getting into she can take care of herself. C'mon Lex, we'll go back to my place."

Ethan stood in front of her. "Don't touch her!" he warned.

"What's your problem?"

"My problem is I'm older than her. By just under 8 months!"

"But your only 15." he looked at Lexi. Covered his face. He wasn't as angry as he wanted people to think. 15. God he was excited! He had to cover his tracks first though. He'd have her eventually!

"15?" he asked Lexi. A look passed across his face. "Do you realise what I nearly did to you?" he stormed off. Punched a tree in anger.

Ethan didn't trust him. He saw the look on his face. He looked more excited at the prospect of her being 15. Was he sick or something? He then remembered Lexi was stood there. She looked at him with a funny look on her face. Like she was studying him.

"Lexi you IDIOT! What the hell are you doing lying about your age to him? Do you realise what just happened against a tree in the outdoors. Not the best first time don't you think?"

"I dunno Ethan lying about my age seemed like a good idea at the time. And I wouldn't of let it get that far!"

"Oh really. Lexi you were completely caught up in the moment. You weren't stopping anything!"

"It wasn't fair to him. Do you know he could have got in serious trouble?"

"Look I didn't expect him to kiss me ok! I didn't expect to feel like that. I didn't expect to lose all control and feel common sense float away. I didn't expect to think of y…."

"Yeah Lex, that's what happens. It happened between us!" Ethan interrupted.

"You'd better not be talking about what I think your talking about!" a voice joined the conversation. It was Danny. He looked between them angrily.

"What the hell is going on here? And why the hell are you talking about losing control!" he hissed angrily.

Lexi looked at Ethan pleading. Cover for me Ethan please! She sent silently.

Danny wasn't stupid Ethan thought. Look at Lexi her hair messed up. Her lips red. Her eyes still held a slightly glazed over expression. She looked like she'd been kissed. Kissed? Actually more like ravaged. The look in her eyes said it all. He shook his head and exhaled. Why the hell did he let himself get into these situations?

"me and Lexi we…" he trailed off and shrugged.

"I thought that was over!" Danny said angrily.

"Me too!" Ethan replied dryly.

James appeared. "Where's Tri…." Lexi looked at him panicked and shook her head.

"Both of you gazebo NOW! I'll talk to you tomorrow!" Danny controlled his voice although there was a clear warning in it. He walked away and they followed.

"Thanks Lex, just leave me alone yeah!" Ethan said angrily. "And no I didn't do that for you. I did it so Tristan wouldn't get in trouble remember that!"

He staked away and spoke to Shauna by the CD player. James approached Lexi.

"What the hell went on and why does your dad look royally pissed?"

"Promise you won't tell him." Lexi said.

"No."

"Well I'm not telling you then."

"Ok then I promise." he exhaled.

"And you never break a promise. Dad and Shauna told me."

He nodded.

"well I was talking to Tris and he kissed me." James hands balled into fists. "I told him I was 17." she added. "It got a little heated Ethan came and stepped in before it went too far. Then dad came and heard us talking thought it was Ethan who had kissed me. Tristan had stormed off after Ethan told him my true age. He was well angry!"

"God Lex!"

"I know I'm stupid!"

"You gotta fix this between Ethan and your dad!"

"No way dad'll kill me!"

"The looks passing between your dad and Ethan are pretty deadly. Remember he thinks you and Ethan were gonna sleep together. Your only 15!"

Lexi looked at her dad and Ethan looking at each other.

"Oh God!" she muttered. She couldn't do that to Ethan.

She walked over and grabbed her dad hand. "Come on we need to talk." she said and dragged him out of the gazebo. She looked up at her dad slightly. God she was gonna be taller than him by the time she's 18 if she doesn't stop growing soon!

"If this is about what happened between you and Ethan I told you I'll talk to you tomorrow!"

"Dad look I wasn't doing anything with Ethan. He came and stopped me doing something stupid!"

"God Lexi do you I'm stupid? I heard what you were talking about. And most of all I saw the look on your face. The way you were looking at him!"

"What did you hear?"

"How you lost control and common sense!" he sounded disgusted.

"Dad I swear to you it wasn't Ethan!"

"Who else could it have been Lexi?" he asked incredulous. Danny wondered then remembered his daughters reaction to Evan and Tristan.

"Which one?" he raged. "He's dead he's so dead if he touched you!" he warned.

"It wasn't his fault dad!"

"Which one Lex?"

There was a stubborn like father like daughter tilt to her chin Danny knew she was as hard headed as he was. There was no way she'd tell him which one it was!

"Even if you won't tell me who it is, it is his fault. He should have known better. They are both 18 for Gods sake!" her dad was irate and here Lexi was about to give him heart attack material.

"daddy." she said smally.

"Oh god what did you do?" he asked.

"I sorta told him I was….17." she said softly.

Danny's face went bright red. ".WHAT? You are in so much trouble it is unreal! Get back in that party and you better not leave my line of vision!" he shouted.

She walked back into the party and Ethan saw Danny's angry face as he looked at his daughter. He walked straight over to him and hugged him.

"It seems I owe you an apology Ethan. She told me everything. How you were looking out for hr. you should have told me mate!"

"She looked at me begging me to lie for her. And this truly wasn't Tristan's fault. He was angry when he found out her true age."

"So it was Tristan she refused to tell me! Anyway mate I'm honestly sorry she'll be the death of me she really will!"

I know Danny don't worry about it. You wanna go back to your wife. She looks lonely."

He hugged him once more. "Thanks son!"As Danny walked away Ethan had a thought. Lexi was gonna be the death of him too!
