Part 17: True Feelings

(Kells POV)

"Promise me one thing though..." I said. "What is it?" She asked. I hesitated before speaking. "When that crowd leaves that you will stay for me.

And if I don't become what they thought I was

In the time I should and my hype dies, that you would wait for me." I could tell he was quoting 'Letter to my Fans' but he changed the words slightly. "I promise." He smiled. "You ready to ride till the wheels fall off?" He chuckled. "I was born ready."

(Lexi POV)

I was laying next to Kells listening to his old mixtapes. I was listening to Lead You On and I just sat there taking in all of the words. That song has personally helped me through a lot. Although I never actually did heroine I could feel his pain through all the things I was going through. Especially when we were homeless and broke. MGK is all that I had and I am so grateful to have him now. I got a text from Colson ❤ I smiled and read it. 'Colson❤: What you listening to Babygirl ;)' I smirked and looked at him while taking out my headphone. "You couldn't just ask me that?" He laughed. "I tried but you didn't hear me." I showed him my phone and his smiled. "That song really does mean a lot to you doesn't it?" I raised a brow. "How'd you know?" I asked. "At EST Fest you told me that it was your favorite song by me."

I flashbacked to the weekend when me and Kells first met. I can't believe I almost forgot about it, everything was playing in my head again. Like when he tried to smash and I turned him down, the concert, Ryan trying to get near me and Destiny calling me a bitch and her fucking Colson. My smile turned to a frown when I thought about that. I never actually did find out if he actually fucked her, I just kind of forgave him. "What's wrong?" He asked while moving a piece of hair out of my face. "It's just... Did you actually have sex with Destiny that weekend." I could tell he was annoyed when I asked that. "Please don't be angry, I promise I'll believe you. It's just I never did find out if you did it or not." "That night Lexi came up to our campsite drunk and naked. She was rambling on about something and I think it was you but anyways I tried to tell her to go back to her campsite but she passed out on the ground. It was cold that night and Dub already had a girl with him so I brought her in my tent so she wouldn't freeze half to death. Nothing happened." "What about Slim?" I asked. "He was already sleep in his tent with Alaina." I raised a brow. "Alaina was with him that night." He shook his head. "Yupp. I swear they acted like a married couple that weekend. I don't ever think he got over Alaina." A idea popped into my head. "Oh my gosh, what if we fly Alaina to Cleveland for Slim's birthday next week as a surprise." He smiled. "That's great! I'll tell Ash and have her set everything up."

I smiled and kissed him. "Im sorry for accusing you of sleeping with my ex bestfriend." I said through the kiss." He climbed in top of me and looked into my eyes. "You..Your your eyes.... they change color?" He looked more surprised then scared. "Yeah... it's a birth defect. My mom was taking these pills to help with her depression when she was pregnant with me and It caused me to have eyes that change color due to how bright it is or how I'm feeling." A big smile spread across his face. "That's so fucking awesome!" He moved the curtain covering his bunk and peaked his head out. "Guy! Lexi has mood changing eyes! Come check this out!" Everyone came running to look at me. "I always swore she had hazel eyes but now they're purplish red." Kells said as everyone looked deep into my eyes, including Cassie. "I always though she had light blue eyes?" Ash said. "I always thought they were green?" Slim and Dub said simultaneously. They looked at me confused. "Wait, that day...when I saw you in Philly. They turned from red to black..." Kells added. "What do the colors mean?" Dub asked. I took a deep breath. "Well green is my natural eye color but that also means I'm feeling humorous. That's why Dub and Slim always see them green because they are always acting stupid and funny." They smiled. "Light blue means im content and happy. Ash is always a more calm person and keeps a good serious conversation. That's why she always sees them light blue." Ash stuck her tongue out at Slim and Dub. I looked at Kells who was still over top of me. "Hazel means I like what I see and I'm extremely happy but when they turn purplish red...." I paused, afraid of admitting my feelings for him in front of everybody. "It means what?" He asked. "It means that... I'm madly and deeply in love with you." A big smile spread across his face.

"Awwwwhhhh!" Everyone said. "Hush up!" Me and Kells said together. "Let's leave the two lovebirds alone." Ash said before pushing everyone away from the bunk. Kells looked at me confused. "So what does red and black mean?" I groaned. "Red means I'm just mad or getting annoyed but black... it's a more serious angry, it means I kind of want nothing to do with you. I wanted to dig your grave and personally throw you in it kind of angry." His eyes widened. "You were that mad at me?" He asked. "Well... yeah, I mean at the time I thought you had slept with Destiny." He frowned. "Richard Colson Baker. I love you and nothing can change that now, I promised to stick with you and I mean that." He smiled. "Too romantic?" I asked while chuckling. "No, I actually liked it. I love you too baby girl." He kissed me again but we were interrupted by Cassie. "Daddy! Dubby took my doll and won't give it back." He chuckled and climbed out the bunk. "Dub! Give Cassie her doll back!" I heard him yell. I laughed and grabbed my phone. There was a text on the screen from a unknown number. 'Unkown: We got more of the 'stuff' if you know what I mean. Hmu if you want some of it when you come back to Cleveland -ar' I was confused when I read that but then I looked at the lock screen photo and realized it wasn't mine. This was Kells' phone.

I quickly sat it down and grabbed mine trying to act like I didn't just grab his phone. He came back with flour all over his face. "Oh my god what happened?" I asked shocked. "Long story... can you help me?" I laughed and climbed out the bunk realizing the flour was all over him. I could hear Ash cussing dub out for pouring a whole thing of flour all over Kells. We walked into the bathroom and I tried to sort wipe it out of his hair but that wasnt working. "Maybe I'll just wash it out." I smiled. "Ok, want me to get you your clothes?" I asked. "Yeah, just grab me a pair of boxers and jeans." I walked out and closed the door behind me. I could hear the water turn on as soon as I left. I went into his suit case and grabbed his favorite pair of jeans and a random pair of boxers. I went back to the bathroom and heard the water turn off. I knocked on the door and Kells peaked his head out. "That was fast." I said. "Well when you live in a house with no hot water you learn how to take fast showers." I laughed and handed him his clothes. When he went to grab his clothes he smirked and pulled me in the bathroom. He pressed his lips against mine and pushed me against a wall. After a couple of seconds I relaxed and kissed him back, I wrapped my arms around his next and ran my hands through his hair. I remembered the night in the club and smiled. I heard something drop on the floor and realized it was the only thing between us, his towel. I could feel his dick pressing up against me through my jeans. He pulled back and smiled. "Someone wanted to make a appearance." I chuckled. "Your like a horny teenager." He smiled a picked his towel back up. I kept telling myself 'Lexi dont look down' 'don't look down.'

There was a knock on the door. "Lexi your phone is ringing." Ashleigh chirped from outside the bathroom. I quickly left and grabbed my phone. It was Haley. I pressed answer and put the phone up to my ear. "Hey Haley, what's up?" I heard breathing. "Uh...Haley..?" There was a loud laugh. "How was your night in jail?" It was a guys voice. "Who is this?" I asked a little worried. "Brown hair, brown eyes..." I smirked. "Your describing about 1/3 of the American population." He smirked. "Always cracking jokes.... you haven't changed smexi Lexi. " My eyes widened, there was only one person who ever called me that..... Ryan. "Ryan? aren't you supposed to be in prison... where's Haley!?! is she ok!?!" Ash walked over confused. "What's wrong?" She whispered. "Don't worry about Haley, she's fine, you really need to worry about your family back in PA. How's your mom been." My heart started racing. "Ryan...please don't hurt my mom... I'll do anything." I heard a click and he hung up. "Lexi whats wrong?" Ash asked worriedly. Colson walked out of the bathroom and saw us just standing there. "What's wrong?" He asked. "I..I think Ryan escaped out of prison and is coming after my family...."
