Meant to Be

Chapter 29

Addison Pov:

- " I think Amelia made good contact with that Grey"- commented Cooper, who was sitting next to me.

- "I guess that's an understatement"- Naomi replied, and we all laughed.

- "Maybe that's a good thing"- Sam replied - "Lexie seems tidy, and Amelia seems to need someone like that right now. Recovering from addiction and all the shell of it is difficult and fresh company is needed."

- "Believe me, the Grey's aren't in order. Although Lexie is perhaps the most of their family" - I replied, giving them an ironic look.

- "They don't really need a lot of alcohol to have a good time" - Violet commented - "Just look at them hah"

We were at the bar now as planned from the very morning. Amelia also took Lexie with her, which of course did not bother us at all. Lexie's company was such a fresh breeze in our group, even for a short time. The girls were dancing in the middle, having a great time, with no alcohol in their blood.

I'm glad they get along so well, but something's not right for me. Not from Amelia, but Lexie. The girl arrived so suddenly, in the middle of the week, to a foreign State in which she had never been. She doesn't talk about Seattle, about friends, about her sister, even about her boyfriend, she said maybe three or four words.

The last time I was in Seattle, they were so in love and infatuated with each other that it was impossible to shake them off. Mark praised their relationship so much and only talked about Lexie and Lexie all the time, how amazing she is. The girl said the same about Mark, and now she said nothing. She only seemed to answer our questions by force.

I decided to do something to clarify the matter. I don't know why I didn't do it before. I'll just contact Sloan.

- "I'll be there in a minute"- I informed my friends.

- "Where are you going, Addie?" - Violet asked

- "I was gonna call someone but I forgot, so I'll do it now"- I explained.

- "But at the bar? It's loud in here and so on," - said Naomi.

- "It can't wait"- I added and headed towards the bar to get a better look at Amelia and Lexie, which would help me get through what I had planned.

I stood far enough not to be noticed by me, but on the other hand, close enough for the video to show everything. This is how I'm gonna record a video of Lexie and send it to Mark. It may be a bit weird, but it's the only way to make him react.

I pulled out my phone and fired the camera. I positioned him so you could see that the girl was Lexie. I recorded her playing with Amelia (they sang, danced, they were generally happy. Moments later, I dialed Mark's number from my contacts list.

To Mark of Addison:

The message contains a video (1)

I wish you had come with your girlfriend.

Mark Pov:

I was walking into my apartment, all loaded with groceries, for at least a week when I heard the notification. I was counting on Julia finally speaking, it's been a while since we met, and she still didn't write anything. I'd make the first move, but I don't have her phone number.

I put down my purchases, took off my jacket, and sat on the couch to be ready to write back to Julia. I unlocked my phone, entered the message icon and saw that it was not a message from Julia. Addison wrote to me. I opened it and what I read surprised me enormously, and I honestly didn't know what to do. Completely, I was so confused.
