I was hanging out with Seth in our meadow. While everyone in the house cleaning and decorating for Alexia's 18th birthday party tonight. Once again it was Alice's idea. Alexia told Alice she didn't want a party, she just wanted to have dinner with Erik's family; but of course Alice yelled at her telling her she's going to have a party and she's going to like it. Just like Alice Alexia smiled and said yes. Man, Alice can be super crazy some times.
"Hmm 18. Why doesn't she look 18?" Seth asked. I giggled.
"She's curse will looking young." I answered. I looked down.
"What's wrong Ty ty?" Seth asked. I looked up at Seth. "Come on, something seem wrong." I bit my lip and brush my hair behind my ear.
"It's not fair, Seth. I'm stuck at 16 forever. Alexia is turning 18 today. It's not fair." I angrily said.
"Ty, are you jealous of Alexia?" I nodded. "Why? Thanks to you, she has a better life and away from super as fuck ex-boyfriend and his girlfriend. She stop cutting herself, has a better family, has amazing friends, and the world's best friend ever. She's in love with someone who's making her happy. How could you be jealous? When you made this happen."
"I know. I feel good that I did this. I don't know why I felt jealous of Alexia." Seth wrapped his arm around my waist. I rested my head on his chest. "Yea, I'm great I did this for Alexia. She's super happy." I smiled.
"Yea. So where's the birthday princess anyways? She wasn't at the house when I got there."
"Erik and his sisters took her to get her license. Later she's going to Erik's house for dinner and to open presents. After that she's coming back to the house for her party." I felt Seth's body shake.
"Another crazy Alice party. How did she get people to come to the party?" I giggled. "What?"
"Alexia tried out for cheer, but before she could try out. The girls' ask her if she was the girl on the Arizona cheer squad. She said yes. The cheer squad told her that she made the squad. Apparently they saw a video on YouTube of her that someone uploaded."
"How? Where?" Seth sounded confused.
"Alexia went to competition with her team and her mom recorded her and the team, but mostly her. Her mom sent it to the coach and the coach put it on YouTube."
"That's pretty cool. I have to see this video." I giggled. "What?" I rest my head on Seth's arm.
"Nothing. This just feels right, you and me forever. Wait does Sam know?" I looked at Seth. He nodded.
"Of course he knows. He told me that if I love you this much that I should keep you forever." I faked smile. "What's wrong?"
"So you don't care that you won't have little wolf babies, you know to keep the generation going." He shook his head. "Are you sure?" He nods his head.
"Of course I'm sure about not having kids. Tyler, you are the only thing that makes me happy." He kisses my head. "I love you so much." I smiled.
ALPOV
I just finished my driving test and my teacher was grading my test. I was so nervous. Esme and Carlisle were the ones teaching me how to drive because everyone one else were speeders.
"Well, miss Hale you did a great job. Congratulation you passed." My teacher said. I smiled big. He hands me my test.
"Oh my god, thank you so much." He smiled at me and got out of Kasey's car. I got out of the car, too. Erik, Kasey and Jamie came walking out. I ran to Erik and he caught me. He spun me around.
"I passed." I said happily.
"Oh my god, that's awesome Alexia." Kasey said. Erik puts me down. "Sweet now she can have your." Erik covers Kasey's mouth.
"Wait what?" I was confused. I look at Erik and then at Kasey. "What's going on?"
"Nothing. Don't worry about it Lexi-bear." Erik kisses my head. "Okay, it's your birthday." I nodded my head.
"Okay well I have to get my new license." I smiled. Jamie nodded. We walked inside the DMV. The people ask for my birth certificate. I gave them my birth certificate and my adoption papers.
"Okay, miss. Hale please, stand here." The guy said. I stood where the guy told me. He also told me not to smile. So I didn't. "Okay, miss. Hale I need you to sign here and you'll be done." He smiled at me. I signed everything I had to. "Great, here's your new license, miss. Hale. Oh happy birthday." I smiled.
"Thank you." I walked over to Erik and his sisters. "Hey Kasey, can I drive?" I gave her the puppy dog look. I know she couldn't resist it. No one can.
"Fine because it's your birthday." I hugged her. "Don't crush my car, though." She gave me her keys, which I gave back.
"Thanks, Kasey." I ran to her car.
"Shotgun." I heard Erik yell out. I saw him run ahead of me. I giggled. I got the drivers' side. I unlocked the doors and Erik and I got in. Erik rolls down his window. "Come on slow pokes." Kasey and Jamie laughed.
"Shut up, Erik. You should be sitting in the back." Jamie said when she got in the car. Kasey also got in. I start the engine and put my seatbelt on.
"Hey, it's my girlfriend's birthday today. So I get to sit in the front with her." Erik explained. I drive out of the parking lot of the DMV. I smiled. "So beat that."
"Shut up, Erik." I heard Kasey say. I giggled. It was funny listening to Erik and his sisters fight. I would fight with Alice because she's kind of like my sister, but she scares me and you don't want to mess with Alice.
Dinner with Erik's family was just amazing. Carrie and Mark made steak, mushrooms, baked potatoes. Of course Carrie made a cake, but she forgot that Alice was throwing a party for me later tonight, so she made a cupcake for me. It was very yummy. It was a marble cupcake with butter cream icing.
"Thank you so much Carrie. Everything was great." I hugged Carrie. She hugged me back and then let go of me. She held on to my shoulders.
"You're very welcome, Alexia. But you know you're family now." She smiled at me. I smiled back.
"Present time!" Jamie yelled from the living room. Carrie and I laughed a little and walked to the living room. Jamie and Kasey were sitting on the floor next to the love seat where Kyle and Kristen were sitting. Erik was sitting next to his dad on the sofa. Carrie sat on the sofa with Mark and Erik. I sat on the floor behind Erik's legs.
Here this is from Kyle and Kristen." Jamie handed me the box. It was medium box. I ripped the wrapping paper off the box. There was a pink nook, a couple journals, and a packet of pens.
"Oh my gosh, this is amazing. Thank you so much." I thanked Kyle and Kristen. They smiled.
"Erik told us what your favorite books are, so we could add them to the nook." Kristen said.
"With some new ones." Kyle added.
"Thank you so much." I set the box to the side. Jamie handed me another present.
"This is from mom and dad." I ripped the wrapping paper off. Inside was a Canon EOS Rebel T3 Digital SLR Camera and adobe Photoshop. I gasped.
"Oh gosh, this is what I wanted for a while now. Thank you so much, Carrie and Mark." I looked at them and they were smiling.
"You're very welcome, Alexia." Mark said. Jamie handed me two cards.
"These are from Kasey and me." I opened the cards. They were both gift cards for Victoria Secrets and Hot Topic. "Everyone got you something good, so we got you gift cards to stores you like." I smiled.
"Thank you." I looked around and there weren't any more presents. "Is that all the presents?" I asked.
"Erik has a special present for you. Well a couple of special presents for you should I say." Kasey giggled. "But sadly he doesn't have time to show you one of your presents."
"Okay then. Well I better get going before Alice yells at me." I giggled.
"I'll drive you home." Erik said. He helped me get all of my gifts.
"Thank you again for everything." I smiled. I hugged everyone before walking to the garage with Erik.
"I can't wait to see your present." I smiled at him. He looked at me and smiled back. "Can I get a hint or two?"
"No, Lexi-bear."
"Why not?" I pouted.
"I want to make it special." He said. I pouted in the seat. "Babe, don't be like that." I stopped pouted.
"Fine."
"Finally!" Alice yelled at me. I laughed. "I thought I was going to have to get you myself."
"No, Alice. I was just enjoying myself with Erik's family." I smiled and rested my head on Erik's shoulder. Alice nodded.
"So how was it?" Alice asked.
"It was great. They got me all the things I've wanted, but couldn't have." Alice smiled.
"That's great. Come inside, Rose and I have a lot work to do. Erik, you can stay if you want, the guys are watching the game or maybe playing video games." Erik nodded. Alice walked inside.
"I'm surprise she let me stay." Erik whispered. I giggled.
"I heard that." Alice yelled. Erik and I followed slowly behind.
Alice and Rose were going crazy with my hair, outfit, and makeup. The theme of the party was Rock Star and of course I was the Rock Star today.
Alice was tizzing my hair like crazy. She left my bangs alone. She also used a lot of hairspray and she put pink hair extensions, which was pretty cool and rockin'.
Rose did my makeup. She used a lot of black eye liner, dark green, purple, dark blue and glitter. She put red lip-gloss.
"Okay you're done. Now we have to get your outfit on." Rose said. Alice handed me a purple corset with a tutu, fishnet tights with hearts, and black some kind of reptile skin ankle boots.
I put it all on and look in the mirror. I looked like a slut, but kind of like a rock star.
ErPOV
"Hey, Erik would you like something to drink?" Tyler asked. I nodded. She walked to the kitchen. She came back with bottled water, handed it to me and sat next to Seth.
I wasn't sure why Tyler was down here with the guys, but then again so was Bella. Edward and Bella weren't actually watching the game with Seth, Emmett, Jasper and I.
"The girls are taking a long time to get Alexia ready for the party." Seth said.
"Yea, sure." Emmett said who was still staring at the TV. "It's always like this. Alice and Rose go crazy with getting ready, truth me." I took a drink from my water. When someone cleared their throat. Everyone turned around to see who it was. Alexia was standing on the last step wearing a purple outfit with a tutu, black tights, and black boots.
I spat out my water. I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand.
"Alice! Rose!" Emmett yelled. I couldn't take my eyes off her. She looked like a rocker goddess. She smiled at me. "What the hell did you do to her?" I heard Emmett yelled. Alexia looked down before walking to the couch where I was sitting.
"Emmett, she's 18 now. Stop treating her like a child." I heard Rose yell at Emmett.
"So what do you think?" Alexia asked. I shook my head to clear my head. She bit her lip.
"You look amazing, like always." I choked my answer out.
"Damn." Seth said. Alexia giggled. "Ty, you should dress like that."
"Ha. Ha. Seth, you're funny." Tyler said. Alexia sat next to me. I can't believe I'm dating this goddess.
"I hope you don't get jealous tonight." She said. I chuckled.
"I'm not leaving your side." I kissed her cheek.
Alexia greeted everyone at the door. A lot of guys who entered looked at her up and down. I clenched my fists until they turned white.
"Erik, calm down." I heard Tyler tell me. "Alexia knows who she's with and with always be with."
"I know. I'm just jealous and I told her I'm not leaving her side. But Alice told me to mingle around, she's watching her." I looked at door where Alexia was still, when I saw Lacey walk in.
"Shit." I said.
"What?" I shook my head. "What? Tell me." Tyler shouted.
"This slut from Forks high is here. She's always had a crush on me, but I keep telling her I'm not interested in her and I have a girlfriend. One day she told Alexia to fuck off and jump off a cliff." Lacey was talking to Alexia, when Alexia's smile disappeared and a smile on Lacey's face appeared. Lacey walked off.
I walked to Alexia's side.
"Lexi bear, you okay?" I whispered in her ear. She nodded.
"This is my party, damn it. No one is going to ruin it for me." She said. I smiled. I grabbed her hand and pull her away from door and to the dance floor. The song Baby from Glee came on. I told Alice to play it when everyone started showing up.
You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever, and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart
I started singing to her. Alexia looked very confused.
"Erik, what are you doing?" She asked.
Are we an item? Girl, quit playin'
"We're just friends," what are you sayin'?
Said "there's another," and looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time
She stepped back a little. I started walking around her. She smiled a little and looked around.
And I was like baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
I danced around her until she started laughing at me and danced with me. Some people were taking pictures of us. I know Alice was.
For you, I would have done whatever
And I just can't believe we're here together
And I wanna play it cool, but I'm losin' you
I'll buy you anything, I'll buy you any ring
And I'm in pieces, baby fix me
And just shake me 'til you wake me from this bad dream
I'm goin' down, down, down, down
And I just can't believe my first love won't be around
And I'm like baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
Everyone started clapping to the beat. I knew I was making a fool of myself, but I was doing it for Alexia because she didn't believe me when I said someday I would sing a Justin Bieber song to her.
Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
I held Alexia close to me. Spun her around a couple of times.
I'm all gone
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Now I'm all gone
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Now I'm all gone
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Now I'm all gone, gone, gone, gone
I'm gone
I dropped to my knees handing her hand. Everyone clapped and yelled. I smiled at her. I got up and kissed her. She couldn't stop smiling and giggling.
"See, I told you." I said through her lips.
"Yea, don't do that again." She giggled. I nodded. "Okay, you thirst?"
"Very." She walked to the punch table to get her and me some punch. I felt someone brush his or her hand on my shoulder.
"Well, Erik that was romantic." I heard Lacey say. "I didn't know you liked JB." She walked in front of me.
"I don't." Lacey's hands slid down my chest and stopped. "Look, Lacey stay away from me." I tried to walk away.

I was talking to some girls from Forks high who were friends with Alexia. I saw from the corner of me eye, Erik talking to Lacey. It looked like he was trying to walk away from her. That's where I come to safe him.
"Excuse me ladies." I walked to Erik. "Oh Erik there to you are. Emmett was looking for you. He needs to talk to you about something." He nodded his head and walked away. I smiled as he walked away, and then looked at Lacey and my smile disappeared.
"Stay away from Erik if you don't I'll have to beat the shit out of you. Got it Lacey." I said. She smiled.
"You think I'm scared of you. I'm not." She walked away.
Alexia started open presents people brought her. She got a lot gift cards, clothes, books, iTunes cards. Someone gave her razors and pills. I knew it was, too. It was Lacey. Alexia gave Alice the gift and Alice went to throw it away.
"Alexia, you have a special gift outside." Emmett said. Everyone walked outside. Outside there was a light blue 2010 Ford mustang.
"Oh my gosh, this is awesome." She yelled.
"Look inside." Rose said. Emmett handed Alexia the keys. She opened the door and a light brown, with black and white puppy jumped out and barked like crazy.
"Aww it's so cute." She picked it up.
"I hope you like her. My grandpa's dog had puppies and he asked if you would like one. He said this one was a special puppy just like you." Erik said.
"Why is this one special?" She asked.
"She has two different color eyes. Green and blue." He answered. Alexia smiled.
"She's adorable." She kissed Erik's cheek. "You know she has to stay with you, right?" He nodded.
"What are you going to name her?" Emmett asked. Alexia shrugged her shoulders.
"No one cares." Lacey yelled.
"I like Aquamarine. You know because of her eyes." Alexia said. Erik nods his head.
"Me, too."
Everyone walked inside to danced and mingle. Alexia went upstairs to Aquamarine in the bathroom.
Alice grabbed my arm and pulled me to the kitchen.
"Where's Lexi?" She asked.
"Upstairs putting Aquamarine in the bathroom. Why? What's going on?"
"That Lacey girl is going to do something really bad." I ran out of the kitchen and upstairs when I almost ran into Alexia.
"Slow down, Tyler. Where's the fire." She laughed at her joke.
"Go find Erik. Now." She was confused. "Now, Alexia." She walked downstairs and I followed. She got to the last step and gasped. I looked at what she gasped at. It was too late.
Erik and Lacey were kissing. Erik looked at us from the corner of his eye and pushed Lacey away.
"Alexia, I swear." She ran back upstairs. Lacey had a smiled on her face. Wow I feel like this reminds me of something. Oh yeah, I'm sweet 16 party. But instead of me, it's Alexia and she's not turning 16.
"Tyler, please talk to Alexia. I swear." I stopped him from saying anything more. I shook my head and walked upstairs again. I walked to Alexia's room, which the door was closed. I could hear her crying. I tried to open the door, but it was locked.
"Alexia, please open the door." I said. She didn't walk to the door. "Alexia, please."
"Why did Alice warn me about that?" She asked. Maybe I should have told her the truth and not tell her to go find Erik instead. "Why couldn't anyone of you tell me about this?"
"I'm sorry, Alexia. Alice told me to find you and I didn't know why, she just said that Lacey was going to do something bad." I answered.
"I hate all of you!" She yelled. "Go get Aquamarine and give her back to Erik. I don't want her here and I don't want to see him. Ever."
I sighed and walked to the bathroom. I opened the door and grabbed Aquamarine. I walked downstairs to find Erik. He was leaning against the wall by the stairs.
"Here." I hand him Aquamarine. "She said she doesn't want her here and she doesn't want to see you." He grabbed Aquamarine from my hands.
"I swear, I didn't mean any of it." I shook my head. "Please believe me, Tyler."
"Erik, just give her some time." Erik took a deep breath and nodded. He walked to the door and left.

I'm sorry it took so long for me to write this chapter. I was trying to put it up on my birthday, but that didn't happen. I'm very sorry, but here it is now. Links to pictures of Alexia's outfit, car, and puppy are on my profile :)
