Our secret ~ a Landrew story

Part 4 - Andrew Davila

June 25 12:36 AM

I wake up and feel something on my shoulder. I looks over and see Lexi sleeping on my shoulder.
She looks so peaceful. I can't believe some guy touched her. I wont let that shit happen to her again.

I glance over at my phone and check the time. "12:36" "Shit" It's really late, I gotta get Lexi to bed.

I stand up and carefully carry Lexi so I could take her to room. I open her door and place her on her bed. I take off my shirt, grab a pillow and lay on the floor.

"Andrew come up and lay down with me" I hear her say.

"You're awake?"

"Yeah I just wanted you to carry me up here" She says with a smile. "Lay down with me"

I stand up and lay next to her. She places her head on my chest and closes her eyes. I put my arm around her and fall asleep.

During the middle of the night I feel her tossing and turning. I could hear her crying. I look over at her and caress her arm.

"Lexi you okay?" I whisper

Suddenly she gets up and starts breathing really heavily.

"Hey hey you're okay." I try to comfort her. She turns to me and hugs me. I wipe the tear on her cheek and hug her back.

"I'm sorry for waking you up." She says while taking a deep breath.

"It's okay Lex." I keep caressing her arm.

"You're okay, I'm here. Go back to sleep." I say comforting her.

She falls asleep on my chest again and hugs me tightly. I put my arm around her and made sure she fell asleep.

10:48 AM

I wake up and don't feel Lexi on my chest. I look around and don't see her anywhere. Suddenly I see the door open and Lexi coming in the room.

"Good morning sleeping beauty" She says with a giggle.

"Good morning" I say while rubbing my eyes.
"When did you wake up? I didn't even feel you getting up."

"I woke up around 9 and saw that you were still sleeping so I decided to shower." I get up and put my shirt on.

"What do you wanna eat?" I ask. I woke up really hungry today.

"I could make some pancakes."

"Sounds good."

Lexi starts making breakfast and I help her with the ingredients. We ended up throwing flour at each other and made a huge mess.

"Andrew!" She says looking at the mess we made.

"What? You started it." I say defending myself.

"Help me clean up."

"Why me?"

"Im the one making breakfast." She says defensively.

I ended up sweeping the floor and wiping down the counters. Once I finished cleaning, breakfast was ready. Lexi ended up making some good ass pancakes. I'm surprised because she never really cooks. 

"These pancakes are bomb asf." I say while taking a bite out of the food.

"I know, I know." She says and giggles.

Lexi made me wash the dishes because she made breakfast. After I washed the dishes I got a text from my mom saying that my family was coming over this weekend.

"Am I gonna get to meet the one and only who created you?" Lexi asks as she snoops through my phone.

"Do you wanna meet her?" I ask with a smirk.

"I was kidding! But I would love to meet her." She says with a smile.

I've told my mom about Lexi before. She already knows I like her too. I wasn't gonna tell her but she figured out.

"You could come to dinner with us."

"I don't wanna seem like a burden" She says while looking down.

"No it's okay I invited you. I want to see you there."

"Okay I'll go." She says finally giving in. I start to get excited because she's coming to dinner with me and my family. My mom is gonna ask her too many questions and is gonna make her uncomfortable though. I'll give her a heads up.

I contemplate asking her what she was dreaming of last night. She seems super scared.

I check the time and see that it's 11:56 AM. I have to Film for Brent's channel today.

"Hey Lex I gotta go film with Brent."

"Oh okay I'll see you later then. Thanks for staying over and coming when I called you." She says and hugs me tightly. 

"Of course Lexi. Just tell me whenever you want me to come over or want to talk." I say as I hug her back.

We lock eyes for a second and I notice her looking at my lips. I was gonna go in but she backed up.

"Sorry." She says nervously.

"It's okay don't worry." I say while grabbing the back of my neck.

We say goodbye and I leave her house. I get in my car and think of last night. We were so close and I was cuddling her. I blush at the thought of that.

I start heading back to my apartment to get ready for the day. I go inside my place and head for the shower right away. Once I get out I start getting ready. I decided to wear a black sweatshirt with some dark jeans and a black beanie.

After I finished getting ready I go to Brent's house to film.

A few hours later

We go to Lexi's house and bring her sushi. We walk towards her room but see that she's asleep so we leave the sushi on the kitchen counter and watch TV in the living room until she wakes up.

After she woke up we left and went back to Brent's place.

"Hey bro thanks for coming over to film" Brent says with a smile.

"Yeah for sure brother" I say while dabbing him up.

"Alright ima start heading out because I gotta go clean"

"Alright I'll see you later." He says while waving bye.

I go back to my house and start cleaning everything. I'm excited for my birthday because ima make a move on Lexi. I'm hoping she feels the same about me. I just want the best for her. I will try to be there for her and protect her no matter what.
