Alexandria's POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'

I woke up this morning surprisingly before my alarm and with a smile on my face. Rolling over I saw Deli still asleep laying beside me. Slowly I got up and made my way to the bathroom to get ready for the day.

I hopped in the shower playing back everything from yesterday and then I remembered the last bit of the night before I left.

"Oh God I can't believe I just did that."

I ran my hand over my face still, embarrassed. How can I even look at him again. I've never in my life flirted with anyone and the first person had to be Mr.Xavier, what came over me?

"Maybe I'll get lucky and never see him again." I mumbled stepping out of the shower.

My stomach dropped a bit not liking the idea. Even though after last night I don't necessarily dislike him anymore, I still should do my best to stay away. He's way too cocky, arrogant, egotistical, and he has to get his way, hell he doesn't even understand what the word no means. It's not like he likes me anyway. I'm a boring young adult, who works at a diner, lives in a run down one bedroom apartment, with a daughter.

Wait a minute...... I should be proud of all of that. Just because I'm not rich like that prick doesn't mean I' not successful, or not as good. I pay for this apartment all by myself even if it is a little run down, I have a wonderful job with a great boss, and I have a beautiful daughter I would do anything for. I can't believe even for a minute that was all worthless. I've worked my ass off to get to where I am today, I should be proud and grateful for everything I have.

Smiling again I walked in the room with a towel wrapped around me, seeing Deli still asleep on the bed. I walked over to her slowly shaking her awake.

"Deli, Deli sweetie, you've got to get up. You need to get to school."


For the first time she actual woke up without a fight.

"What would you like for breakfast?"


"I want wunny eggs momma!"


"Runny eggs? Where did you eat those?"


I've never actually made her eggs over easy. I really like them but I know I've haven't made them in years.


"Mws. Dunkin Made me wunny eggs fwor dinner."


"Oh did she? Okay lets go make you some runny eggs." I laughed picking her up and heading towards the kitchen.


I still had my towel on but i'll just change later. Three eggs overeasy and some toast later we were back in the bedroom both getting ready. I laid her out a plain pink dress she like and a pair of white leggings with flats. And I pulled on my work uniform ready to head out.

We took our normal route to her school with Deli telling me about yesterday, and her evening with Mr. Xavier's house keeper. Apparently his house keeper kept her entertained, she colored with her, and let her watch TV, she also made her eggs, toast, and bacon. Apparently Deli had a pretty fun night. Even though I don't like the way Mr. Xavier did it, I'm glad Deli got to spend time with Mrs. Dunkin. She had a lot of fun and she doesn't get to spend much time with people outside of school, Rose, and I.
