Lexie's pov
I groaned and rolled over to turn off my alarm and then settled back under the covers which didn't last long because then I felt someone lightly shaking my shoulder.
End of pov
Lexie: hmm
Jaden: lex you gotta get up remember you have to go high water today
Lexie: let me skip (mumbles)
Jaden: you can't you know that
Lexie: why (whines)
Jaden: you know why if you have more then ten absences your kicked out
Lexie: unexcused absences you can just write a note I want to stay with you today (hugs him)
Jaden: (sighs) I have to finish filming downfalls high today's the last day and it all got pushed back because of the accident
Lexie: then let me go with you (wraps her arms around his neck)
Jaden: sorry princess you heard what Callie said going to school will help with your separation anxiety you have to go today
Lexie: (looks at him and glares) I hate you
Jaden: no you don't (stands her on the floor) go get ready and meet me downstairs okay?
Lexie: (sighs) fine
Lexie's pov
I got off the bed and walked over to my room and started getting my stuff together when I glanced at the window and saw the same car I saw in the neighborhood yesterday. It wasn't parked directly outside our house because we have a security gate but it was pretty close and it gave me a weird feeling. I shook it off thinking it's probably just paparazzi those people are annoying as fuck and then put on my rose gold colored leggings with a black crop top and some sneakers.Then put my hair in a high ponytail and walked downstairs to see Bryce in the kitchen taking a protein shot. I rolled my eyes and then realized I should probably tell him about the paparazzi parked out front.
End of pov
Lexie: hey Bryce did you know paparazzi is parked out front?
Bryce: (swallows the shot) what do you mean?
Lexie: yeah there's a black car parked by the gate you haven't seen it?
Bryce: no.. but don't worry about it and just ignore them okay?
Lexie: okay
Bryce: who's taking you today?
Lexie: Jaden
Bryce: okay are you going to eat here?
Lexie: no the girls and I have made it tradition to go to Starbucks
Bryce: (laughs) okay I'll be right back I am going to go upstairs and get something real quick
Lexie: okay
Bryce's pov
I looked over at Lexie who was looking on her phone and then went upstairs to check the security cameras to see if it was really paparazzi but the car was tinted so I couldn't see a camera inside even if there was one. I sighed and pulled out my phone to text the boys to meet me in the office.
End of pov
Sway boys chat
Simp: guys meet me in the office we need to talk lex told me this morning that there was a car parked by the gate and I came to check the security cameras to make sure it wasn't the stalker... but the windows are tinted so I can't tell
Boys: okay we'll be right there
End of chat
(The boys walk into the office and sit on chairs to talk)
Josh: you didn't tell her about the sway stalker did you?
Bryce: no I am not an idiot josh
Jaden: no one said you were but it's better If she doesn't know I don't want her getting scared
Griffin: how do we know it's the stalker though? I mean he's only been to the sway business house *actual triller house*
Quinton: do you think he followed us here?
Ant: for that to be possible he would have had to hide really well and we don't leave the business house until we know there's no one near the house
Griffin: Bryce did you talk to Rafy about when the restraining orders are going to be done?
Bryce: no but I'll ask her today for now let's just have Lexie believe it's paparazzi
Lexie's pov
I was waiting in the kitchen for fifteen minutes and I was going to be late if Jaden didn't hurry up so I started walking upstairs when I heard the boys voices, it wasn't loud but it was still in ear shot. I walked over to the office and put my ear to the door and I started hearing something about a stalker! And then I heard footsteps so I started going back downstairs when I heard the door open and Noah saw me in the hallway... shit.
End of pov
Noah: Lexie were you eavesdropping on our conversation? (Crosses his arms)
Lexie: no...
Blake: be honest with us lex we won't get mad I promise
Lexie: is there really someone stalking sway...
griffin: (sighs) yeah for a month or two now
Lexie: why didn't you tell me?
Jaden: because we didn't want to scare you
Lexie: I i it's n n not j j Jake I i is it?
Bryce: no if it was I would have already been in jail for killing him it's just this old guy who's like obsessed with us
Lexie: you've seen him before?
Griffin: yeah Bryce has it on a vlog that he never posted because he knows you watch his channel and like we said didn't want to scare you
Bryce: at least now I can post it
Anthony: (looks at Bryce) now is not the time to be thinking about content ideas
Bryce: what I am just saying now I can post it since she knows
Kio: (ignores the two of them and looks at Lexie) you know we have it under control and there's no reason to be scared okay?
Lexie: okay so what happens now?
Jaden: just be more aware of your surroundings especially when your walking buddy and no going around the neighborhood by yourself either
Lexie: so where am I supposed to walk her?
Josh: down the street and back, and make sure you have your phone with you
Lexie: I always have my phone with me
Quinton: correction make sure you answer the phone
Lexie: okay
Griffin: and no walking buddy for more than twenty minutes I know it's a little extreme but we really don't know what this guy is capable of and we just want you to be safe
Blake: (mumbles) clearly he's capable of just walking into the house when the doors open
Boys: Blake!!
Blake: I said that out loud?
Noah: you know I love you dude but come on (looks at Lexie) ignore what he said your going to be fine okay?
Lexie: okay if you say so...
Jaden: no come on we are going to be late (looks at the boys) bye guys (and pecks josh on the lips)
Josh: who's picking up lex today?
Lexie: I can get a ride with Clare
Josh: okay just make sure to text please
Lexie: okay bye
Boys: bye have a good day
Lexie's pov
We left the house and got in the car and Jaden started driving while I was looking out the window thinking about this whole stalker thing. I mean I know I said it didn't worry me but that's because I didn't want make the boys more worried then they already are so I just made sure for them to think that I am okay with it, and then I thought about the car I saw walking buddy yesterday. Was that the same car or a different car? I can't remember though.. should I tell Jaden? No that's just going to get them more worried and I'll probably have to walk buddy with someone from now on and that's the only alone time I get these days and I don't want to risk losing that plus it's just going to get them more worried so telling Jaden not an option. Plus what if i do tell Jaden and it ends up being just a random car and Jaden turns into something bigger. Ugh great I am overthinking again.. damnit I didn't take my anxiety pill well that would explain why I am on edge but I am not bouncing my leg so that's good however I was pulled out of my thoughts by Jaden calling my name.
End of pov
Lexie: hmm (looks at him)
Jaden: I said we are here
(Clare looks in front of her only to realize she's at the front of the school)
Jaden: are you okay? Did the stalker scare you? You don't have to go today if you really don't want to
Lexie: no I am already here anyways I was just thinking that's all
Jaden: are you sure?
Lexie: yeah I gotta go I am already a few minutes late love you (hugs him across the seat)
Jaden: love you too
Lexie's pov
I got out of the car and started walking towards the building when I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket so I took it out to see a text from Clare.
End of pov
Text convo
Clare: my mom had a baby girl!!
Lexie: omg Clare you have a little sister congrats!!! What's her name?
Clare: Amelia faith Bieber
Lexie: aww that's such a pretty name! I can't wait to meet her
Clare: my mom will be able to go home in three days they just want to make sure everything stays normal but I wanted to tell you that I am spending the day there so I won't be going to school today
Lexie: oh okay don't worry I'll have one or the boys pick me up or I'll text Mike
Clare: ooo okay have fun 😂
Lexie: oh hush anyways I am already late for Cassie's class
Clare: ohhh good luck
Lexie: thanks I'll need it (puts her phone away and walks into the classroom/studio)
Cassie: your late hossler
Lexie: I know I am sorry
Cassie: you know what that means I want thirty pirouettes and ten sets of releve's take breaks in between if you have too
Lexie: okay miss
Lexie's pov
I put my bag away and put on my shoes, stretched for a few to warm my body up so I wouldn't pull a muscle and fifteen minutes of stretching later I started doing pirouettes and by the tenth one I heard my stomach growl and I realized I didn't have breakfast... oh well not like I was going to eat it in the first place. I kept doing my pirouettes until I hit the thirty mark. I took a few deep breaths and drank water before starting my releve's until class ended and at that point my poor toes were dying and I was putting my sneakers back on when Dani and Amy started walking over to me.
End of pov
Dani: hey girly we thought you weren't going to show today
Amy: yeah usually you don't like being late
Lexie: you can thank the boys for that this morning and it's funny usually in my old school I wouldn't give a shit if I was late but now I do
Dani: well yeah but that's because Cassie doesn't play
Lexie: true
Amy: are you ready to go the next class?
Lexie: hmm
(They walk to moose and camille's class)
Moose: what's up everyone today we are just going to free style so everyone's going to get in a circle, I am going to play music and whoever wants to can jump in
Camille: and yes everyone has to jump in unless you want to get called out (smiles)
Odalie: why don't we make it more interesting how about a dance battle
Students: yeah!
Moose: alright a little dance battle action why not but Odalie since this was your idea you go first and pick your opponent
Odalie: (smiles) gladly Lexie
Lexie's pov
Of course the wicked bitch of the school chooses me to battle her can this day get any worse. I already know she's going to win and your probably like Lexie don't put yourself down so fast well one have you met me and two everyone in this class is already on team Odalie the only ones I have on my side are Amy and Dani.
End of pov
Amy: you got this lex don't make her think she's better then you
Lexie: (smiles) thanks guys
Camille: alright so Lexie, Odalie take the center of the floor
Moose: okay so Odalie first and Lexie just feel free to jump in when you want
Lexie: okay
(Moose turns on the music and Odalie goes first)
Lexie's pov
I was watching how Odalie was feeling the music and then all of a sudden she just went for it and once she stopped for a second that's when I started jumped in and the class was cheering me on surprisingly then Odalie jumped back in and we were both trying to out dance each other so to speak and then she did a split and that was the end of it I couldn't even remember the last time I did a split because I lost my flexibility and I didn't have any other dance moves I could think of so she won just as I predicted. Then Amy went against this boy names Tal who was also really good and they looked good dancing together just vibing with the music and bouncing off each other's moves it was cool to see. Eventually class ended and the girls went to get their car keys because they were going to go to pollo tropical.
End of pov
Amy: are you going to come with us?
Lexie: yeah but I am not hungry I ate with the boys I just don't want to be here alone
Dani: okay
Moose: Lexie can you stay for a second Camille and I want to talk to you
Lexie: okay... (looks at the girls) meet you in the car?
Girls: sure
(they walk out of the studio and Lexie walks up over to moose and camille)
Lexie: what's up?
Camille: we just wanted to tell you not to let Odalie get to you, your really good and have potential
Moose: your just thinking to much you have to loosen up and let go which is easier said then done but try it next time you'll see you'll feel a lot better
Lexie: thanks I'll keep that in mind
Them: your welcome
Lexie's pov
I grabbed my bag and started walking towards the girls car when Odalie stopped me.. ugh what does she want now!? Was humiliating me in class not enough for her anymore? Can I smack her? I want to fight her... I could but ugh that could get me expelled and I don't want to leave just yet... at least I don't think I do so i sucked it up and swallowed my pride.
End of pov
Lexie: what do you want now?
Odalie: I just wanted to say it was really embarrassing watching you fail like that, maybe it just proves you shouldn't be here
Lexie: what did I ever do to you Odalie? You've been a bitch to me since I got here and I am tired of it so say what you need to say and get it over with
Odalie: did you just call me a bitch?
Lexie: yeah pretty sure I didn't stutter did I
Odalie: you better remember who your talking to I own this school don't forget (walks past her and bumps her shoulder on purpose)
Lexie's pov
Don't hit her, don't hit her, don't hit her after repeating that in my head a few more times and making sure I wasn't going to chase after her and pull her fake extensions out I walked towards the parking lot and saw Dani and Amy waiting.
End of pov
Dani: what took so long?
Lexie: the wicked bitch of the school
Amy: what happened?
Lexie: she insulted me and the only reason she's not on the ground bleeding right now is because I don't want to get expelled
Dani: good for you being the bigger person and just ignore Odalie she hates anyone she sees as competition
Lexie: (scoffs) yeah right like I could compete with her she completely beat me today
Amy: because you let her... you were doing good and then you let her psyche you out
Lexie: (sighs) your probably right
(Amy pulls our the parking lot and drives to pollo tropical and they pull up the window)
Dani: are you sure you don't want anything lex? What about a salad
Lexie: no I am good really guys I ate a big breakfast that was another reason I was late griffin learned how to make French toast with eggs, bacon and fruit
Amy: impressive for a sway boy (jokes)
Lexie: I know I was surprised too oh before I forget do you think one of you can give me a ride home today?
Dani: yeah I mean I have to drop Amy off too so I don't mind
Lexie: thanks girls
Them: no problem
Lexie's pov
The girls got their pollo tropical and we drove back to the school where we finished our last classes for the day and by two o clock we were back in the car driving towards sway and twenty minutes later we pulled up to the gate. I put in the code and they drove up to the front of the house.
End of pov
Lexie: do you guys want to come inside?
Amy: thanks but I gotta get my little sister to cheer practice
Dani: and I have a ton of homework for virtual school but thanks for the invite
Lexie: yeah of course thanks for dropping me off bye guys!
Girls: bye
(Lexie walks up to the front of the house and opens the front door)
Lexie: I AM HOME!!!
Kio: Lexie! (Runs and hugs her)
Lexie: (laughs) hi
Anthony: it's still weird not having you here the whole day (walks towards the front door and locks it) how was school?
Lexie: it was fine
Kio: just fine? Your dancing lex you should come home more excited about it
Lexie: fine I had a dance battle with this girl and she beat me is that what you want to hear? (Walks to the living room and sits on the couch and sighs loudly) where's buddy?
(Buddy hears her name called and runs to Lexie, jumps on the couch and Lexie starts petting her fur and gives her a kiss) I am going to go walk her
Kio: okay just
Lexie: be careful I know (grabs her leash and walks out of the house)
Anthony: is it just me or did she really want to get out of here?
Kio: no she was definitely in a rush
(Josh and griffin walk into the living room with Bryce and Blake)
Josh: is lex back yet?
Kio: yeah but she picked up buddy and took her for a walk
Griffin: without saying bye?
Anthony: yeah
Bryce: okay... anyways josh are we filming?
Josh: yeah griffin, Blake you in?
Them: yeah
Josh: Kio you want to come in for it?
Kio: sure
(The boys walk to the room where tea tok is filmed)
Lexie's pov
I was walking buddy down the street listening to MGK when I felt a tap on my shoulder and I quickly turned around to see Mads and Nessa where the fuck did they even come from? I don't want to deal with them not right now ugh can my day get any worse!
End of pov
Lexie: (takes her headphones out) so are you stalking the boys now?
Nessa: no we wanted to talk to you
Lexie: oh so your stalking me now (jokes) listen I am not in the best mood today so if you fake bitches can just get back in your fancy little cars and leave I'd greatly appreciate it
Mads: don't talk to us like that you little brat (slaps her across the face) you know this is all your fault right, if you hadn't come to LA to begin with Jaden and I would still be together
Lexie: (laughs) that's a funny joke you and Jaden were always toxic and I wonder how he'd feel when he finds out you just hit his little sister
Nessa: your not going to tell them anything (kicks her in the stomach with her black boots)
Lexie's pov
I think I literally just got winded by a girl who dresses up as an emo Barbie huh I just thought about that blond Barbie bitch and emo Barbie bitch it kind of fits don't you think? Stupid brain now's not the time! I got up and I realized that I have been too nice to these girls and I am just about done with it. I stood back up and went to kick ness in the stomach when I felt my hair being pulled by Mads who threw me down to the ground and kicked me again. Nessa then came over to me and punched me in the stomach but since she was leaning down I took the chance to pull her on the ground and got up top of her. I punched her in the eye since that was the closest target and quickest option right now, I then felt Mads pick me up from nessa so I took that chance and landed a punch to her stomach but she scratched me on the arm in the process. I heard buddy barking at us but I couldn't do anything about that right now because I have to get these bitches off my back first.
End of pov
Jaden's pov
I was driving back from filming downfalls high and was getting into the neighborhood when I saw three girls on the sidewalk near the house look like they were fighting and a dog next to them. At first I didn't think anything of it but as I was getting closer to the house I realizes it was nessa, Mads and Lexie, shit! I quickly put the car in park and got out of the drivers seat and pulled Mads off of Lexie since she was currently on top of her and nessa was just standing there probably shocked to even see me. Once I had my arms wrapped around Mads and held her far enough away from my sister I picked her up from the ground and she immediately wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck. I looked at her and could tell she was trying not to cry in front of them but I knew as soon as we walked inside she was going to break down then I turned to the girls who actually looked guilty in front of me right now but I don't care I was pissed.
End of pov
Jaden: what the actual fuck Mads!! You can go after me all you want but don't you DARE go after my sister I can't believe you right now and I can't believe I was even in a relationship with you in the first place if this is really the person you are I am so glad we broke up and if it's not obvious we are NEVER getting back together!!!
(Lexie winces from Jaden screaming and puts her head in the crook of his neck while he looks at nessa)
Jaden: and you I was really hoping that we could have at least stayed civil for the sake of our song and we are going to have to do a few promo stuff but you seriously crossed a line! You know how much josh loves Lexie why would you go after her like that! Do me a favor both of you get the fuck out of our neighborhood and if I ever see you near my property I will call the cops I am not kidding
Mads: please Jaden I am sorry but can we talk about this without screaming
Jaden: hell no leave now
Nessa: (sighs) come on mads let's just go before it gets worse
Mads: fine but I do want to talk Jaden and I am sorry really I am
Jaden: (shakes his head) I don't want to hear it anymore leave
(Mads and nessa walk over to their cars and leave the neighborhood and that when Lexie bursts out crying)
Jaden: (grabs buddy's leash and lightly bounces Lexie) shh shh it's okay baby they are gone
(Jaden gets to the front of the house and opens the door where griffin and Kio see Lexie crying in Jaden's arms all scratched up)
Kio: what the hell happened!?!?
Jaden: I need to talk to josh where is he?
Griffin: filming with the boys what happened?
Jaden: I'll explain but can you take care of Lexie and clean her scratches
Griffin: yeah of course
(Griffin walks over to them and takes Lexie from Jaden's arms but she she whimpers and reaches for him)
Jaden: just go with griffin for a few minutes okay baby (whispers in griffins ear) and give her a bottle too
(Griffin nods his head and takes her to the kitchen and sits her on the counter and takes out the first aid kit while he walks to the room josh and the boys were filming in)
Josh: I mean I think it's just you meet people in your profession right
(Bryce Burst's out laughing)
Bryce: your profession
Josh: what do you mean the assumption there is we don't have a profession and we are just bums (looks over at Jaden who walked in) ay Babe what's up
Jaden: can you cut the camera for a second we need to talk (says seriously)
Josh: yeah (looks at Bryce and stands up) can you cut the camera
Bryce: yeah
(Josh walks out of the room and follows josh up to their room)
Josh: what's up? Why do you look upset?
Jaden: I was on my way to the house and l guess lex was walking buddy but that's besides the point the point is Mads and nessa were beating her up
Josh: what!?!?!? Where is she now?
Jaden: downstairs with griffin but we need to get this Mads and nessa thing under control now
Josh: Mads texted me last night I threatened to expose her...
Jaden: what did she say?
Josh: the usual crap her wanting to get back together I told her if she ever texted me again that I would expose her
Jaden: no I don't want to do that don't get me wrong she deserves it but I don't want to bring social media into it this is something that needs to be handled in person face to face once and for all
Josh: okay... tomorrow we go over to their place and we talk to them one on one but for now let's just make sure lex is okay
Jaden: okay I am going to tell the boys
Josh: alright
(josh walks downstairs to see griffin trying to give a tear stained Lexie a bottle who's refusing)
Lexie: I don't want to be little right now griffin
Griffin: well Jaden wants you to after what happened so..
Lexie: so I don't care
Griffin: please lex
Lexie: no
Josh: what if I give it to you? (Walks over to griffin and takes Lexie out of his hands)
Lexie: that's not fair (crosses her arms)
Josh: what's not fair?
Lexie: you giving it to me because I can't say no to you...
josh: good (takes the bottle and puts it to her lips) open
Lexie: (whispers in his ear) can we go to the room at least
Josh: why? It's not like they haven't seen you little before
Lexie: I just want you and Jaden right now (fists his shirt)
Josh: okay (kisses the top of her head and looks at the boys) lex wants to go to the room so I am going to take her up there
Griffin: okay we'll call you for dinner
Josh: okay (walks upstairs to the room)
With Jaden and the other boys
Blake: no offense but you really know how to pick them
Bryce: hey it's not his fault for not knowing his now girlfriend was going to go all psycho the minute they broke up
Jaden: I wish I did because then I never would have dated her
Blake: well you did so...
Jaden: anyways I just wanted to catch you guys up on what happened but I am going to go see how lex is doing
Anthony: okay I think I heard josh bring her upstairs so they are probably in your room
Jaden: alright I am going to go see them
(Walks out of the room and walks to their room and sees josh stroking Lexie's scratched cheek while she sucks on the bottle and talking to her)
Josh: I am sorry nessa did this baby (shakes his head) I never thought she would be capable of that
Jaden: to be fair neither did I (standing by the door with his arms crossed)
Josh: I know this is so not the time but you look so hot right now standing like that (jokes and then smirks)
Jaden: (bursts out laughing and walks over to them and pecks him on the lips) I love you
Josh: I love you too
(Lexie who is now in little space makes grabby hands to Jaden)
Jaden: and I love you too little one (kisses the top of her head and strokes her hair)
Josh: babe
Jaden: yeah
Josh: you know if we can survive our two psycho exes we can survive anything right (looks at him)
Jaden: (smiles and holds his hand) I don't care what we go through as long as we do it together and it means that I get to spend the rest of my life falling asleep next to you and our little girl
Josh: always (kisses him)
Josh's pov
Jaden and I cuddled with lex who was in little little space so she was just babbling but every time she smiled or laughed we laughed too because it was just too cute. Eventually it was time for dinner so I carried Lexie downstairs with us because she was currently grasping onto my chain and didn't want to let it go until we got down to the kitchen and I had to sit her down which resulted in her screaming so I sat her back on my lap and she went back to playing with my chain until griffin set a plate of fish and rice in front of us. I knew she was probably full from the bottle but we still wanted her to actually eat so we decided that I would split my plate with her and i just fed myself then I would feed her until the plate was empty. After dinner the boys and I just played with little Lexie until ten and we called it a night. I was going to lay her down in her bed but Jaden wanted her on the bed with us and I knew that after today's incident he just wanted to be close with her just like she wanted to be close to the both of us because as long as she's with us she's safe. I laid her down in the middle of the bed and eventually all three of us drifted off to sleep.
