“No Lexi, don’t look at me like that! I’m still mad at him and I’m not going to acknowledge his company until I calm down.” She says but I can’t help notice her hesitance and the hurt in her face, I know she misses chatting and joking with him like they usually do.

“Ronny please, I was also mad but you weren’t there when it happened. He wasn’t himself and as soon as he saw he was hurting me he stopped. You don’t understand how sorry he is and how much he hates himself for doing it. Please Ronny I forgave him, please just forgive him too? I know you can see how much this whole situation is hurting him and it hurts me to see both of you ignoring each other. Please Ron… I know you miss the fun and happy Drake.” I beg Ronny.

“Yeah he does look pretty depressed, okay I’ll do it - I’m doing this for you BUT if he EVER hurts you like that again I WILL hurt him Lexi!” she says in a serious tone.

When we get back to the table Ronny gives Drake a quick hug and Drake smiles and the mood is instantly lighter. Drake looks over to me and kisses my cheek and thanks me.

“Lexi, our parents are all going for dinner at Milo’s Bar on Friday night and they’ve been hearing us talk about you so often that they wanted to meet you-" Ronny says before she's interrupted by Jax.

“They won’t stop hounding us; do you want to meet them? I mean ,it’s cool if you don’t or whatever.” Jax trails off.

“What! Of course I want to meet your parents. I thought you guys were embarrassed by me or something because you haven't really introduced me to any of your family.” I ramble on.

“No Lex. Don’t ever think that, I think we’ve kept you away from our parents because they are most likely going to embarrass us!” Drake says as he looks at the others and they nod in agreement.

"Wait till you see Jax and Ronny's dad! They’re so scary! Ron's dad isn't so bad but Jax's dad ...gosh!" Chloe says in a hushed voice to me and I start laughing at her expression.

“I remember when Ron said something about you guys living together? Do all your parents live together also? I’m confused…” I look at them and they look like they’re trying to come up with an explanation.

Jax explains for me though, “Our parents are all best friends like us, there’s a couple of cabins that some other family’s live in whom are also friends of my parents and their cabins surround our house, which is the um…main house. We all stay in the right wing of the house and the parents are on the left side but when we’re all eighteen our parents have already decided that they are going to travel so the house will become mine. The house is so big that’s its basically two houses in one because we have our own kitchen and lounge or whatever but it’s just easier for all us kids to stay together on the one side of the house so we don’t bother the adults you know?”

“Oh okay …I see. Shit, that’s cool though, you stay there too Chloe?” I turn my gaze to Chloe who has become rather quiet.

“Um…no…I’m not a … um … I mean no… my parents stay in the complex's near the Mall.” She stutters with hesitance.

“But as soon as we leave school Chlo will move in with me, right Chlo?” Ron asks Chloe holding her hand.

“Of course Ron.” Chloe replies looking happier.

“You guys are too cute together.” I blurt out making the boys next to me shake their heads and smile while Ronny just blushes.

I haven't been to my secret little fountain for a while so I haven't see my brown wolf because I've been too busy with my friends and school. I called Alex and Johnny a couple of times throughout the week and they say they miss me and I need to visit, I arrange with them to come over Saturday night because mom usually stays with her boyfriend or at Amber's and she leaves me the car. I’ve also been texting Talon and Tyler constantly, those boys are too funny – they can’t wait to see me.

Schools been cool and Drake and I had our first date on Tuesday night , he took me out for dinner at the only Italian place in town, followed by a heated make out session in his car by the beachfront parking lot. Cliché I know.

We are just so attracted to each other that we always need to be touching when we’re near each other.

Chelsea and the bitch squad have been avoiding me throughout the week and I’m so thankful. It’s already Friday and tonight I meet all my friends as well as my boyfriend’s parents for the first time. I’m pretty nervous, people are so quick to judge appearances and with all my tattoos and piercings people usually get the wrong impression of me.
