Alexia Eden(18)

“Stay the fuck away from me and if I EVER hear you or your “bitch squad” mention my name, or any of my family's and YES that “emo-friend” of mine is my family, I will do some work on that pretty little face of yours and when I'M finished with you it won’t be so ….attractive” I say emphasizing the word attractive in disgust.

I let her go, pick up my bag and push through the crowd in the locker room putting my shirt on. Yeah... I was busy getting dressed when I confronted her and although I had my shorts and boots on I was still in my black lace bra. So throughout the argument I was half naked, that’s probably why she brought up the whole tattoo story since I have tattoos down my back and on the side. I have large roses and vines down my rib cage as a tribute to my mother and fathers love they held for one another. Every Monday morning dad would buy mom a bouquet of red roses and tell her how much he loves her and then he would steal one of the roses and give it to me saying he loved me just as much.

It’s funny how the roses symbolized so much to me. The love they had was amazing and when I got the tattoo I added the dates of his birth and death, I also added his and moms name small in-between some of the vines, you’ve got to look close to actually notice it but it’s there.

I don’t know what I was thinking, I probably should have put my shirt on before I confronted her little gang but I was just so irritated that I didn’t think clearly and only saw red. Walking out the school down the stairs and crossing the grass park to get to the cars, Ronny comes up behind me and puts her arm over my shoulder. She’s laughing her ass off and I end up chuckling too, we end up rolling on the grass laughing with tears in our eyes.

“Oh my gosh! Lexi! I never knew small lil’ you had that in you...THAT was the funniest shit ever! You should have seen the faces of her bitches when you told her off.” she says through laughs.

I reply, trying hard to compose myself from laughing, wiping the tears out of my eyes, “I swear I wasn’t going to touch her, but when she passed that fucking comment I lost it..."

I start laughing again, “… and there I was giving her a lecture on decency…only to realize as I got my bag, I was standing in my bra the WHOLE TIME!” Laughter erupts again as we lay on our backs on the ground.

“Did I hear Bra? What did you say you were doing in it?” I look up to see Jax’s smirk, he’s towering over me with his shoes near my head looking down at us. I look at Ronny next to me and we burst out laughing again.

“Jax! You missed the hottest thing ever! Who would have thought our little Lexi here was a spitfire, she gave your girlfriend a good talking to ….With her head against the LOCKER!” She starts snickering again.

“Shh…Ronny, you make it sound so bad, I just couldn’t take her crap anymore …. I could’ve done worse you know.” I say trying to defend myself.

“Lexi! What did you do? What do u mean you couldn’t take it anymore? And Ronny, Chelsea is NOT my girlfriend, it’s just sex; what the fuck is going on?” Jax says in a serious tone.

“That’s disgusting…” I mutter quietly to myself disappointed in Jax for actually sleeping with someone like that and falling for her charms.

“Guess he does find that type of thing attractive.” I whisper to Ronny wiggling my eyebrows.

She smiles at me and we giggle again, Jax looks confused like he’s missed something.

“Alexia you better tell me what’s going on right now!” He yells and that kills the mood, Ronny and I are silent now and I’m pretty sure I felt her shiver next to me at the sound of his angry tone. Luckily Drake arrives, he couldn’t have come at a better time and he starts laughing.

“I can’t believe you! I didn’t think you were the type to throw down. Damn Lexi everyone’s talking about it.” He bends down then picks me up as if I weigh nothing then tosses me over his shoulder with my ass in the air.

"Ronny what have you done? Now we got a little fighter on our hands! Let’s get you guys out of here before you cause any more trouble.” I laugh at his teasing tone and tell him to hush it.

When I look up, Jax is standing a few meters away on his phone. Hmmm probably to his “bed buddy" trying to find out what happened. Drake eventually puts me down and opens his car for Ronny and me, and then he walks back to where Jax is.

Ronny gets all quiet in the backseat and puts her hand on my shoulder, I turn my eyes away from the boys to look at her and I see so much emotion in her eyes.

“I heard what you said to Chelsea, you’re my family too you know and I love you just as much. I’m so happy you came here… even though you didn’t want to. I know what you’ve been through and that’s why I appreciate the fact that you let us in…well let me in. You’ve told me all your secrets – well …I think you have… but I know something is bugging you and when you’re ready you’ll tell me. You’ve been so open and honest with me and you’re my best friend Lexi, I have so much that I want you to know about me and I feel guilty that I haven’t been honest with you. But I promise you Lexi that when the times right - I swear…. I will tell you everything you want to know…” she trails off as she looks down at the back of the driver’s seat. I reach back through the chairs, with my ass in the air and give her a big hug and whisper in her ear.
