When Jax stopped by and put his hand over her shoulder, I couldn’t help the jealousy radiating from me even though he’s my Alpha and best friend I saw the look in his eyes when he looked at her and I knew that I had to make him understand that she was mine.
I didn’t realize that the new girl that Ronny and Jax have been holding out on me was in fact my girl from the waterfall, I think they knew it was her and that’s why they didn’t want me to meet her so soon.
They probably thought we would scare her away. My wolf mutters.
“This is the girl from the waterfall.” I tell Jax through our link as we walk into our first class.
He smiles at me. “Yeah Ron and I kinda figured that out but we wanted to spend time with her before you came into the picture. I know now that you guys have met you’re definitely not going to let her out your sight.” he smirks.
“Damn straight.” Sebastien replies for me.
CHAPTER 7:
LEXI POV
He dropped me off at home and walked me to the door, the type of thing you would expect after going on a date, he grabbed me into a big hug and squeezed me tightly as if he didn’t want to let go and I held him just as tight enjoying his warmth and his sweet musky smell. Eventually we let go and he kisses my forehead, “I’ll see you tomorrow at school okay?”
“Thanks for a great afternoon, I had a good time…bye Drake.” I say hesitantly walking away opening my front door as he wave’s goodbye and climbs in his car.
Closing the door behind me, I hear his car drive away, my phone makes a sound indicating a new message.
Ronny: Lexi! U went home with Drake?? Chlo jus told me. Tel me wen ur home & I’ll come over. Wana hear everything!”
Lexi: “Yip, just got home, come on ova.”
I quickly jump in the shower and start making supper since mom has the evening shift tonight at the bar.
I hear the door open and Ronny walks in as if she lives here. She gives me a hug and sits on the table while I heat up the microwave mac and cheese.
“Soooo…. What did you guys do? You’ve been gone quite a while, Jax has been infuriating me about your whereabouts?” she starts snickering.
“What’s his problem? Why did he want to know where I was? We went and had ice-cream by the beach, it was so nice, I don’t know why but we get along so well… it's kinda like I’ve known him forever…he seems so familiar.” I look at her and she’s given me a weird look. “Yeah Ron I know …I’m weird!” I say with a smile on my blushing face, shrugging her off with the slight wave of a hand.
“Awww… I’m so happy! NO! You are not weird, don’t say that and don’t worry about Jax. I guess he’s just over protective being one of your closest friends even though he knows Drake won’t do anything to hurt you, he just wants to make sure you’re safe. Don’t stress bout it babe. But….what IS weird, is how Drake is with you, he’s not always that friendly you know, you saw how Jax was today with Rachel when she saw that hoe with her hands all over her ma…um...Man - you saw how uptight and angry he was? Well Drake is kinda like that ALL the time! But today was so weird…. it’s like you totally calmed him. Well anyways... how do you feel about him?” She says this with such honesty and I can see in her expression she is telling the truth but I still get the feeling that she’s hiding something from me.
Getting my food from the microwave, I get two forks and give her one, sitting on the table next to her, “Well I know it’s soon, but I really like him...” I blush, “…and I never knew he was like that he just seems so …you know…like the boy next door type but hotter. I can’t imagine him getting angry like Jax does and that whole thing with Jax scared the living shit outta me! Okay… I’m going to be honest with you and whatever I say stays between us okay?”
She takes her finger and crosses her heart, she continues to eating the mac and cheese watching me.
“Okay well you know , you asked me how I felt about Jax and I said I only have friendly feelings for him? Well… I kinda didn’t tell you the whole truth, you see with Jax my feelings are so different, like we are really close and when I’m with him- it’s just about him. I forget about all my other problems, I don’t think about anything else and then when I’m with Drake it’s totally different, I can’t explain. I don’t quite know what I feel for Jax but I know I don’t want to lose him, I can’t lose him and I need him in my life – just like I need you…” I smile at her ,she returns my smile and pats my back, “…and even though Jax is one of my best friends, along with you ,when we got to school today I got so fucking jealous when I saw him with all those girls, the ones that hang all over him. As soon as I met Drake though, that all changed and I didn’t care who was hanging on Jax’s arm all I worried about was Drake and if these girls do the same with him?" I laugh it off like it was nothing, I look at her and she’s got a strange look on her face, she presses her lips in a line like she wants to say something.
