Always Been You

Chapter 23

Semi edited.

~~~Lexi's pov~~~

I walk back into the gym, still a little shaky from the conversation I had with Kelly.

I kissed Hudson instead of who I assumed was Brock and I unknowingly hurt him.

I feel sick to my stomach.

I make my way over to Tori and her husband William, and the girls.

When Piper sees me she rushes over. "Are you ok?" She asked.

I pull her into my arms  and hug her. "I'm ok sweet girl, are you ok?" I rubbed up an down her arm.

She pulled back from the hug. "I'm ok, but I was more worried about you that you had to deal with her" She said.

"You had nothing to worry about. I'd rather deal with her than you have to."

She smiled at me. "Thank you" She said.

"I'd do anything for you kiddo."

Her starts to tear up. "Thank you. This damn period is making me cry so much" She laughed.

I laughed with her. "I hear you. I've lost count the amount of times I've cried in the past when I dropped food on the floor or during a sad movie."

"Tell me about it. Every time I see that animal shelter commercial I cry" She said.

"Welcome to woman hood girly... where we cry at animal commercials and crave chocolate or weird food combos."

She sighs. "How long does this last?"

"Until you reach menopause which you don't have to worry about until you're way older."

She frowned. "I'm stuck then" She said.

"Yeah, but there are some perks."

"Like what?" She asked.

I smirked. "You get free treats."

She smirked back. "That is a pretty good perk" She said.

"Told ya" I winked.

Hudson walks over to us and my stomach flips at the new information I just found out.

"I'm gonna go by Grandma" Piper walked back over to them.

Once she's gone and looks at me with furrowed brows. "Are you ok?" He asked.

"I'm ok. This was a long time coming with Kelly and I, but I do need to talk to you about something."

"What is it? Is it something that Kelly said?" He asked frantically.

"It is, but why don't we wait to talk about it when we're alone."

"Ok" He said.

We walk back over to his parents and the girls.

Tori takes one look at us and knows something is up. "Why don't I take the girls again for a sleepover. We were talking the other day about wrapping your Christmas presents so we figured why not tonight" She said.

"Are you sure? Piper has a basketball game in the morning" He said.

"We can go home and get my bag dad, it's fine and I'll go to bed early" Piper said.

"Ok if you're sure" He said.

She nodded. "I am" She said.

He turns back to his mom. "Thanks mom" He said.

She winked at him then they said their goodbyes to us and left.

We went right after them.

We pull into the driveway just as piper is walking out of the hours with her gym bag.
