Alexia sighed as she waited for Alex outside the dressing room, she suddenly felt bad about what Alex said to her. The fact that he mentioned her mother made her feel so sad, remembering her mother's death was the last thing she wanted.Alex suddenly walked out of the room with Piper and she snapped out of her thoughts. She watched as Piper hugged him before walking away, Alex sighed and turned to her. “Let’s go.” He said and she nodded, they both walked out without saying a word to each other, they entered the car and still didn't say a word to each other till they got home. They walked out of the car and walked in, Alexia ran upstairs immediately as her eyes were starting to get clouded with tears.“Hey, mum.” Alex called and pecked her cheek.“Alex, what's up with you and Alexia again?”“It's nothing mum, I will go talk to her.” Alex said and walked upstairs, he waved at the maids and they blushed. He entered his room and sighed, he took off his uniform and changed into a comfort
Alex forcefully pulled away from the hug and she hurriedly wiped her tears.“Babe, is something wrong?” Alex asked and she shook her head with a smile.“You have been crying a lot today, you might get sick.”“Am fine Alex, it's nothing.” “You don't want to talk about it?” Alex asked holding her cheeks and she nodded.“Should we skip school tomorrow?” Alex asked and she giggled.“Why?”“I just want to spend some time alone with you.” “Skipping school is bad Alex, we can spend some time together in the weekend okay?”“Sure, am sleeping here tonight.” He said and jumped on the bed, Alexia smiled and joined him.He smiled at her and held her waist.“I love you, Alexia.” He said with a smile and she smiled back.“I love you too Alex.” She replied and he pecked her cheek.********THE NEXT DAY Alexia and Alex walked down the stairs together dressed in their uniforms, they saw Alex’s father walking towards them on the stairs and Alexia froze, she suddenly started to breathe faster and Ale
“You know you should not be making threats that way, they still have the video.” Alexia said and he rolled his eyes.“She just annoys me so much, and I hate it.” Alex said and sighed.“You have to be nice to her if you want her to delete the video.” Alexia said and he scoffed.“Oh, I don't want her to delete it. I don't care if she posts it anyway, they only care about the family's name, nothing else.”“What about Emily? Charles is threatening her with the video.” “I will get the video deleted.” “How do you want to do that?” Alexia asked as they walked into the class.“Oh, I don't want to go for that lunch with Piper Miller again.” Alex said and Alexia frowned.“But why?”“Nothing I... ““Hey, baby.” Henry suddenly cut Alex off and hugged Alexia, she sighed and pulled away.“Hold on Henry, what can I do to make you just stop this relationship stuff?” Alexia asked and he smiled.“Go on a date with me this night and I will call off the date.” “Just this night?” Alexia asked and he no
EARLIER Immediately Alexia walked out angrily, Alex sighed and stood up, Piper held his hand and he gave her a questioning look.“Excuse me?” “Are you going to go after her?”“Obviously.” He replied and she gave him a look.“Really? And you are going to leave me here?” “Sure.” He replied and walked out of the room, he ran out of the restaurant and met their driver coming towards him.“Sir, I just saw miss Alexia enter a taxi, is something wrong?” “Nothing much, let's go after the taxi.” Alex said and he nodded, they entered the car and followed the taxi. It started slowing down and the driver also slowed down, he watched as Alexia got down and he also got down. He followed her till she got to a corner and she sat on the floor.He sighed and watched her for a while before walking to her.PRESENT “Am so mad at you.” She said and sniffed.“I know, am sorry.” He said and stroked her hair.“Why did you come here?” Alex asked and they suddenly heard clicks and they looked up to see pe
“What?” Alexis asked.“Think about it, if I tell everyone I have Bipolar disorder, Charles won't be able to threaten Emily anymore and I will be free from Allison.”“And your family?”“Don't worry, it is going to go well.” “How will you organize a press conference without Emily? And if she knows that you are doing a press conference because of that she won't let you.” “Yeah, I will lie to her, that should be good.” He said with a smile and Alexia sighed.“What if this doesn't work? What if everything goes wrong?” Alexia asked and he smiled.“I don't care.” He said and she glared at him.*******AT NIGHT Alex walked into Emily's room and smiled on seeing her going through her phone.“Emily.” He called and she glared at him.“There is something they call knocking, you know that right?” Emily asked and he smiled.“Sorry, I just wanted to ask you for a favor.” “What is that?” She asked as she went through her phone.“I want to do a press conference tomorrow.”“Why?” Emily asked and lo
Emily ran after Alex and Alexia and finally caught up with them when they were about to leave the building.“It was you right? You encouraged him to do this so the whole world can know you as his girlfriend right?” Emily asked Alexia angrily.“What? It wasn't me, I was against it but he won't listen.” “And you just had to go up there with him when you knew that was what he was going to say.” Emily yelled.“Stop yelling at her, this is not her fault, it was all me.” Alex said and Emily sighed angrily.“Do you have any idea what you have just done? You have just dragged our family's name into the mud, we are going to be disrespected and looked down on, we...”“Really? The family name? Is that all that matters?” Alex yelled at her and she rolled her eyes.“Guys, it is okay. You can yell at each other when we get home, it is not safe here.” Alexia said.“Will you shut the fuck up? You are worthless and you have nothing to lose in your life, that is why you think this is a minor issue.” E
Alexia sighed as she lay in her bed, she was so confused about what to do. She knew deep down she wasn't happy living in London but she is happy with Alex. She sighed again and ran her hands through her hair, she picked up her phone and decided to check what Alex's fans are saying.She smiled happily seeing positive comments and how most of his fans are protesting on raising awareness for Bipolar patients but every fan he has kept insulting his father. She scrolled through more comments and smiled at seeing how his fans were appreciating her, she suddenly frown on seeing some abusive comments about her. Some were calling her a gold digger, some said she knew about the disappearance in the first place.“What the fuck.” Alexia muttered. She scrolled through more of it and paused when she was a group of Alex's haters, they were protesting against Bipolar patients and how they should be sent to a mental hospital and not live among normal beings. They had a trending hashtag already, #figh
THE NEXT DAYAlex walked down the stairs alone and he hugged his mother immediately after he saw her in the living room, she smiled happily and hugged him back.“Hey Alex, how was your night?” “It was fine mum, yours?” He asked and pulled away from the hug.“Great.” She replied and he nodded.“Where is Emily? I really need to talk to her.”“Oh, she is in the dining room, where is your girlfriend?”“She is still asleep and I don't want to wake her up.” “Okay.” She replied and he nodded with a smile before walking to the dining room, he got there and met her having breakfast and at the same time, she was going through her phone.“Emily.” He called and sat beside her but she ignored him.“Okay, the silent treatment.” He muttered and started eating her food, she slowly turned to him and he winked at her.“What?” She asked.“Are you mad at me?”“What do you think?” She asked and he sighed.“Look at what everybody is saying about dad, he is losing a lot of money every second, I hate him b
“I think we should tell mum and dad,” Lexia said as they were about to get home.“Whatever, can you guys drop me off here?” Lexi asked.“No, you are coming home with us. Mum and Ashley are so desperate to see you.” Austin said and Lexi sighed.They got home and they all walked out of the car, they walked into the house together and met only Ashley in the living room.“Lexi!” She screamed and rushed to him, Lexi chuckled and carried her, she wrapped her tiny hands around his neck and hugged him tightly.“Hey, how are you?” He asked and she sniffed.“I missed you so much, am sorry I caused... ““It is fine.” He cut her off and she giggled happily.“Ashley, where are mum and dad?” “They went out minutes ago, they said they had an emergency and I should tell you guys to not leave the house again till they get back.” “Why?” Austin asked and she frowned at him.“As I said, they had an emergency.” She scoffed had Anita laughed at Austin.“You were so dumb to understand her.” She laughed an
“But she is so pretty.” Austin groaned and they glared at him.“Hey, Anita. How about we trail her home today after school?” Lexia asked.“Am in,” Anita said.“That seems dangerous,” Austin said and they glared at him.“I will go with them.” Lexi said and they turned to him surprised.“Really?” They chorused and he nodded.“Great, you are going with us.” “What about me?” Austin asked.“You are good with girls so make her fall in love with you.” Anita said.“It is not that easy, I have to first fix my hair and my shirt and... ““Austin, we don't care about the process okay? Just get the girl.” Lexia cut him off and Anita chuckled. They heard the school bell ring and they all head to their classes. After Sharon returned to class, Austin kept talking to her and she enjoyed his company, she noticed it was kind of weird though but she remembered her mother telling her Austin is a flirt so she decided to play along. The school was finally over on that day and Austin escorted her out of t
“Oh,” Sapphire muttered and sighed.“I think I should leave now.” “You should.”“You don't have to be mean about it.”“You don't have to act like you care.” “Really?” She asked and he shrugged.“The McCalls, always a jerk.” She scoffed and stood up.“Excuse me?” Lexi asked and she rolled her eyes.“All I am trying to do is to do is to be friendly, and you keep making a big deal out of it.” “I never asked for your friendship.” He shrugged and Sapphire sighed, she walked out of the house angrily and Lexi sighed.*********Lexi heard the sound of the doorbell and rolled his eyes knowing it was Austin, he walked to the door and opened it and he was surprised to see his sisters and Austin.“Lexi,” Anita called happily and hugged him.“Of course, Austin has a fat mouth.” Lexi scoffed and pulled away from the hug.“Hey, I didn't know when I let the cat out of the bag.”They walked in and Lexia closed the door.“Does mum know you guys are here?” Lexi asked and Austin shook his head.“So, w
Lexi sat happily in the house and went through his phone, he sang along to the song he played on his phone and sighed in relief.He increased the volume of the music and danced around happily, he sang along and dance in the living room.“Really Lexi? Really?” He heard a voice behind him and he turned to see Austin.“What the fuck?” He asked and Austin sat on the couch, Lexi turned off the music and Austin smiled at him.“How the hell did you know I was here?”“Well, I just knew this morning. I kind of thought about it and I realized that dad wouldn't want to take you too far, after trailing you guys and I lost you I knew you could be in any of dad and mum’s houses so I started checking and found out it's the one close to the house.”“Whatever, don't just tell anyone.”“So when are you coming back home?”“Next week.”“Look man, am sorry for always acting like a jerk towards you, I know I keep apologizing and I keep fucking up, am sorry about that. I... ““It's fine.” Lexi cut him off a
“Alex, get him to stop, you can't take him away, Lexi doesn't even talk to us when we are living together not to talk of him living alone.” Alexia said and tears rushed to her eyes.“Dad come on, we are sorry.” Austin said.“Daddy, don't take Lexi away, I don't hate him like Anita and others do.” Ashley added and sniffed.“You are not helping Ashley.” Lexia said.“Alex, we both know if he leaves this house, he might never come back, please don't let him go.” Alexia cried and Alex sighed.“He is not going permanently, he will be back, all I want you guys to see is how your lives will be without Lexi, till then, he is staying away.” Alex said and walked out of the house. Lexi saw his father walking out and he sighed.“Get into the car.” He ordered and Lexi did. Alex drove out of the mansion and drove around the city for a while.“Dad, where are we going exactly?” He asked and Alex chuckled.“Am taking you to a house close to ours but Austin has been following us, that is why am drivin
Lexi walked down the stairs after a while and sighed when he saw Ashley sleeping on the couch with a bandage wrapped around her hand. His family was in the living room except for his father who wasn't back yet.“Is... Is she okay?” He asked and none of them gave him a response.“I didn't cut her.” He said but he got no response.Ashley slowly opened her eyes and her mother rushed to her.“Hey baby, are you okay?” She asked and Lexia helped her up.“Mummy, Lexi didn't cut me with the knife, I did by accident and it was because I was playing with the knife when I found it in his bag, I heard you guys yelling at him before I fell asleep, he did nothing wrong.” Ashley explained and they all became speechless. They turned to him and he sighed. “One of the reasons why I don't talk to you guys and I don't think I ever will.” He said and walked out of the house.“Oh, God.” Alexia muttered and ran her hands through her hair.“Why didn't you say something earlier?” Anita yelled at Ashley.“Th
Lexi walked into the house and Ashley ran to him happily.“Lexi.” She called and hugged his legs, he slowly bent to her level and he stroked her hair.“How are you?”“Am fine, Lexi.”“Okay, is it just me that an seeing this? Lexi and Ashley are getting along.” Anita said as she ate her chips.“Yes, Ashley is having a conversation with Lexi,” Austin added.“I thought he is scared to touch Ashley.” Lexia added.Ashley suddenly turned to them and giggled before opening her mouth to talk.“That is because, this morning, I was crying and Lexi hugged me... “ She trailed off as Lexi hurriedly covered her mouth with his palm.“Our little secret, remember?” He muttered and she nodded, he let go of her and she smiled.“He said I shouldn't tell anyone because it's our little secret.”She hurriedly said before Lexi could stop her again and he sighed.“Hold on, what you are trying to say is that, you had an actual conversation with Lexi?” Lexia asked.“Yes, she did because I saw it.” Alexia said wa
Sharon took in a deep breath and ran after him, she stood in front of him and he sighed.“Sorry Lexi, I am just trying to be friendly.” She said and he ignored her, he was about to walk away when she stood in front of him again.“Stay away from me!” He snapped and pushed her roughly, she fell and groaned in pain, Lexi walked away and she hissed in pain. “Such a jerk.” She scoffed and stood up, she adjusted her uniform and sighed.“Okay, let's do this the hard way.” She muttered and walked back to the cafeteria.*******The school was finally over for the day and Lexi walked to his car, his brother and sister rushed to him as he was about to enter and he gave them a questioning look.“Oh my God, mum allowed you to drive her car!” Anita yelled and he nodded.“I have always wanted to drive it but she wouldn't give me, the car is fucking dope, can I drive it, Lexi?” Austin asked.“What about the one we brought?” “Lexi will drive it, please Lexi,” Austin begged and he nodded, he gave the
HOURS LATERIt was late already and they all kept waiting for Lexi, his mother was starting to get worried but Alex kept assuring her that he will be fine. The door suddenly opened and Lexi froze on seeing them. “Oh, sorry I came late, I will go get my bags now.” Lexi said.“Yes, go get them, I will be waiting for you.” Alex said and he nodded, he walked upstairs and Anita turned to her father.“Daddy am sorry, I didn't mean what I said, I don't want him to go.” Anita said and Alex ignored her.“Dad, come on. We are sorry.” Austin said and Lexi walked down the stairs with his bags.“Alex, come on. You can actually stop him from going.” Alexia said and Alex sighed.“You all have to learn to tolerate him, if he doesn't want to talk to you then let him be, do you know how hard it is for him to control himself every time? I threw your mother across the room when I first met her, I do hit your mother, he has never hit Anita or Ashley or Lexia, he only cut you because he was annoyed and he
