-Stephen James as Daniel West-

Lexi's POV

Thank God, school is finally OVER! My last lesson for the day was P. E. Don't get me wrong I like exercising but our teacher is really mean. He had us running around the school field for 20 minutes under the hot sun!!!

Exhausted is the only word which can describe how I feel right now...

After I said 'goodbye' to Nina, I head to my car and went to pick up Cody from school. When I arrived I parked outside the gate, got out and waited for Cody to come.

He came running out of the gate, he threw himself to me, hugging me. "Hey buddy! How was school today?" I asked him laughing.

"It was great, I made a new friend. " He told me.

"What's his or her name?" I asked him.

"Her name is Claire." he answered and his cheeks turned a hot pink....How cute?

"Is she pretty? " I teased him. Now his cheeks became even more pink.

"She is really pretty " he said.

I couldn't at his sweetness and pinched his cheeks.

We headed to my car, I buckled him up on the sit and went back home.

When we arrived at home, I parked my car into our big garage. We went into the house from the door which connects the garage with the house.

Our house is a two storey building, it's not very big, on the second floor it has three bedrooms and one guest room. Every room has its own bathroom and a walk in closet. On the first floor there is a big kitchen with white cupboards and a white counter with black chairs for breakfast . There also a dinning room with wooden floor, grey walls, a big chandelier hanging from the ceiling and a big wooden table. We don't use that room that much, only on special occasions and when we have guests because my mom thinks we will mess it up if we use it everyday. Our living room which is the biggest room in the house has two grey leather couches and one armchair. In front of the couches there is a black wooden coffee table and on the opposite wall there is a flat TV screen. Also in the far corner there is a fireplace with a rocking chair in front of it. The walls are grey like the ones in the kitchen with a wooden floor.

Our front garden has nothing special, just green grass and some colorful flowers. In the middle there is a stone path that leads to our front door. Our back garden in addition to the front is pretty big with a big pool in the middle, and palm trees surround it . There are various bushes decorating the garden. Also there is a swing hanging from a tree.

I really like our house, it's really lovely.

"Are you hungry?" I asked my little brother.

"Yes." he said while rubbing his tummy.

With that said I start making dinner for Cody and I.

After I finished cooking we settled on the counter and start eating.

"Hey, Cody, do you want some ice cream after we finish our dinner and go for a walk to the park? " I asked him.

"Yeah!! " He answered without a second thought.

"Okay go play for a while and I'll do the dishes and then we'll go! " I said.

* * *

After I did the dishes I went to find Cody who was watching his favorite cartoon on TV.

I sat next to him on the couch "Are you ready to go? " I asked him while ruffling his hair.

"Yes" he answered giggling.

So we got up from the couch, turn off the TV and head to my car.

* * *
After a ten minute drive we arrived at the ice cream parlor. I helped Cody get out of the car and we head into the shop. 

We ordered our ice creams, I bought a cone of vanilla and chocolate and Cody got a cone of cookie dough. Then we start heading to the local park. On the way there Cody was so excited that he was jumping and running around. Some people who were walking past us were smiling at his way.

When we arrived to the park Cody run to the playground and started playing with the other kids. I went over and sat at a bench where I had a clear view of him. I saw him playing with a cute little girl. 

"Hey can I sit here with you so I can watch my daughter?" a really kind lady asked me with a warm smile.

"Yeah sure." I smiled at her. "Is this your daughter over there?" I asked her.

"Yes, her name is Claire." she said with a smile.

"The boy who's playing with her is my brother Cody." 

"Cody? Claire said to me today that she likes a boy named Cody!" the woman said turning her full attention towards me.

"And Cody said to me that he likes a girl named Claire!" I exclaimed excitedly.

"Awww." we said in unison.

"I'm Elen West." she introdused herself. West...?  Where have I heard this name before?

"Alex Addams." I replied.

"Hey do you know a woman named Meriam Addams?" she asked.

"Yes she is my mother." I said in confusion.

"We are working at the same hospital!" she clapped her hands in excitement.

"Alex!" Cody shouted running towards me with Claire behind him.

"Hey buddy." I rufled his hair.

"Alex this is Claire the girl I told you about." he nudged me wispering in my ear.

"She is really pretty, good job." I said while ruffling his hair. 

* * *

 The next day I woke up feeling very tired since I didn't sleep all night. I got up and got ready for school. I went into the kitchen but my parents weren't here, they would be at their job. So I made breakfast for both Cody and I. I went into his room to wake him up, got him dressed and ready for school. We went downstairs, ate the breakfast I made and headed to my car to drop him off to his school and then I went to my own.

I parked my car and headed to my locker to meet Nina.

"Hey, Nina!" I greeted her.

"Hey bitch, you look like shit" she greeted back.

"Thanks a lot" I replied with sarcasm. "How the talk with your mom went, ya know for the detention?" I asked her.

"Better than I thought, I am grounded for two weeks, starting from tomorrow." she answered.

"What?! We won't be able to do movie marathons or go to the mall for TWO WEEKS?" At least once a week we have movie marathons and sleepovers and went to the mall after school. Now that she is grounded I won't be able to hang out with anybody since she is my only best friend and I don't have much friends to hang out with.

"At least I still have my phone." she said.

"That's something. Let's go to class." I told her.
