Alexis woke up with a worse hangover anyone could really imagine, head was

pounding, dehydrated, the night before was rather a blur to her. She awoke from

her hotel bed and headed into the bathroom , she looked into the mirror and

shied herself away. "Look at this hair" she replied to herself. She brushed her

hair back out of her face, and began brushing her teeth. Her phone going off in

the distance ...

"Hello?" She finally answered.

" Lex?" responded the other side of the phone, it was Stacy

"Yea, what's up fool ? responded Alexis.

"Omg .. Your still drunk ..." Laughed Stacy , " where the hell have you

been?"

Alexis laid back in her bed, the screech of Stacy voice piercing right through

her ears. " Please don't don't yell at all" she pleaded. " I went out with

Domonick and Katy and Dom's friend Leland. We were only suppose to do dinner ,

but then we were like yeah let's just go to a club , ended up getting a table

and you know the rest is history.. I actually got way more drunk then I

intended. But that's the story of my life I guess." she laughed at herself.

" That's good , umm.. yeah Jeff was calling you all night " she began her voice

completely changing. " So then he was getting really worried and called your

cousins ..." There was a long pause on both sides of the phone , Alexis could

feel her stomach turning into all forms of knots.

Alexis thought for a minute before speaking , she took a long deep breath " he

knows, doesn't he?"

"Here's the thing, he was thinking WAY worse like horribly worse. He was

thinking like your with another guy and your cheating , he pretty much was

flipping out , so Matt had to tell him , but he's still like annoyed and angry.

So I don't know if you want to talk to him or something?" Explained Stacy.

The both stood quiet , Alexis rubbed her forehead. "Yeah I guess I'll call him

... Oh this is not what I wanted to wake up too at all." She said.

" No I know , I just rather me call you first and give you the 411 before

anything you know? " Stacy said " I'll let you go decide and stuff and call him

... Alright? I miss you "

" I miss you too , I'm probably coming home now like tomorrow" .. alexis said

stand up from her bed and looking through her planner for the day. "Alright ,

I'll talk to you later , let me gather myself , love you bifff " ..

" Love you too " said Stacy as she hung up the phone...

Alexis grabbed her bathing suit , changed and headed down to Wakili Beach , she

loved the beach there she could relax rest and never have to be stressed. She

needed to go there to collect all of her thoughts before talking to Jeff. What

had happen with her and Leland the night before. And where the hell, of all

things, was Katy? She stood there for a few hours before deciding to leave and

go back to the hotel room. She stared at her phone stilll debating wether to

call Jeff or let him call her on his own.

"Ugh let me just call him " she said aloud to herself lifting her iPhone and

calling him. The phone rang about 4 times ..

"Oh , hey, decided to call finally?" Jeff answered.

"...hey , I'm sorry baby , I really am she just wanted me to like not tell

anyone , just because of like how everyone would react baby" Alexis explained ,

almost in tears , she hated them fighting. " Like why the fuck lie!" he yelled.

Betrayal in his voice. " I ask you one thing Alexis and what was that one

thing?"

" To not lie" she answered quietlyy ..

" When are you coming back?" He asked flatly.

" When do you want me too?" She asked. "Today? , tomorrow?"

" Yeah today would be awesome , because we have so much to talk about" he

answered."Whatever come home friday , fine , I gotta go see ya later " he

replied and without saying goodbye hung up on her.

She starred at her phone blankly and placed it on her night table. She heard a

knock and the door, and walked over and opened the door there stood Domonick.

" You alright?" He asked seeing the disappointment in her face.

" We just got into a huge arguement - " she began but was quickly cut off.

"Yeah I know I heard he called Katy. That was not something I wanted to wake up

to at like 530 this morning , literally waking up to arguing cousins..."

Domonick said coming into the room with a slight chuckle.

" Yeah , so I'm just gonna go home tomorrow morning stat , and just figure it

all out. " Alexis shrugged , she began going around the room and stuffing things

into her suitcase.

Domonick nodded , " so you coming back anytime soon? , what are you gonna do ? "

"Of course I'm going to come back !" She said without thinking. Being in Hawaii

really put an ease to Alexis' mind. She loved how the weather was , she loved

the calmness and peacefulness.

He nodded. "You sure you ok?" He asked seeing the look of distress on her face.

She looked at him and nodded continuing to pack. " Alright listen when your done

I'm downstairs with Leland , and Katy let's go out to lunch and back to the

beach or my house."

She finished packing and headed down to the lobby after to see the three of them

there waiting for her. She gave them a half smile , " I really don't feel like

doing anything at all today guys I'm sorry, I know you waited." She said shoving

her hands into her pockets.

" We made reservationssss" whined Katy , "come on , please".

Alexis shook her head " no I just wanna stay here , I'm sorry but I'm leaving

tomorrow morning so you know be good , be careful , I'll be back to visit sooon

"

" Why don't you and Katy go to lunch , I mean you did make the reservation"

Leland said turning to Domonick. " And uhh I'll stay here chill out with Alexis

"

" If you want too , you really don't have to in the least its really okay "

smiled Alexis , " if you wanna go eat with them"

Leland shook his head "no its okay , we'll chill here by the pool " he turned

around to the other two " when you guys finishing doing you know whatever , come

meet us by the pool here or just come to chill " he smiled.

" Yeah , alright" Domonick agreed , taking out his keys from his back pocket. He

placed his arm around Katy's neck and gave a quick wave before walking off to

the parking lot with her.

Alexis and Leland went upstairs to her room before heading to the pool. " Don't

mind my room " she said slightly embarassed " I was in my frantic mode while

packing and everythings pretty much all over the place"

Leland smiled " its okay, don't worry about it"

She swung open the door of her, it really wasn't that bad she just had a few

things out of sorts nothing major. She cleared off the bed and sat down turning

on the TV. Her mind was racing.

" You look so stressed out" Leland let out quietly. He carefully and slowly came

over , sitting himself on the bed. " You got into a fight with your boyfriend

and shit right?".

Alexis nodded , " not even that, like I lied to him, and he hates that ... well

I mean who doesn't hate it but you know". She attempted to explain. " I need

like a massage !" She yelled with a little laugh.

He smiled at her , even as stressed out as she was she was still absolutely

gorgeous and that smile , such a place it had with him. " I'll give you one" he

said quietly. " I'm pretty good at them."

She hesitantly agreed and moved up on the bed, letting him place himself behind

her. She felt his strong hands slide onto her shoulders , she immediately fell

back into his hands. So strong and firm they were , he was strong but so gentle.

He could smell the fruity shampoo in her hair. Thoughts began to race through

his mind , " you .. you umm are really tense in your neck" he said attempting to

be his own distraction.

she let out a light moan , " yeah, I know". She leaned into him more. The more

deeper he went with his massage the moans grew slightly louder. He needed to

finish this , he could feel himself getting slightly aroused by the moaning. He

quickly finished abruptly leaving her wanting more. " We should go to the pool "

he said quickly. " Swim around , stretch out the muscles now"

She nodded at him , " thanks so much that felt SO amazing. "

They went down to the pool and laid their things. Alexis quickly jumped into the

pool. " You coming in , Leland?" She asked , swimming around. He nodded and

jumped in. They spent majority of the day hanging out and just talking. It was

amazing how comfortable they were in each others company.
