Maggie is going to kill me after she kills Nate first. I can barely roll myself out of bed to go to the bathroom. 

"Struggling babe?" Nate asks, chuckling. I snap my head back in his direction and glare at him.

"No, not at all, Nate." I say sarcastically. He chuckles again, then walks over to help me.

"You're acting like I'm handicapped, Nate. I can walk on my own." No you can't, bitch. You could barely roll out of bed.

Stupid conscience. 

"Ok, whatever you say ma." He says and let's go of me. 

Once I make it to the bathroom, I sit on the toilet and put my face in my hands.

"What's wrong, babe?" Nate asks, sitting in front of me.

"Everything, Nate.. Jack is in jail for choking me, he's probably going to give up on his music, his fans will hate him, everyone was so quick to forgive me for lying to them.. I just don't get it." Nate sighs and rubs my back.

"Alexa, don't think too much about everything. If you overthink too much you're going to stress out and it's not pretty when you get stressed out. You're supposed to be having a girls day with the girls to catch up and have fun. Take advantage of that to clear your mind and have fun like you used to with them." I nod my head then crack a smile. 

"What?" Nate asks, confused as to why I smiling.

"When did you become wise like JJ?" I asked.

"Babygirl, I've always been this wise. You just never noticed because you were with the Jacks 24/7."

"No, I don't think that's the case. I think it's because my baby wants to act all smart for me." I tease.

"Your baby, huh?" Nate smirked.

"Well, I mean I'm still waiting on you to ask me out.." I said.

"Well then. Alexa, will you do me the honors of being my girlfriend?" He asked with a big smile on his face.

"Nope." 

"NO?" He asks, standing up.

"Nope, not until you ask me anywhere other than your bathroom." I say, standing up to get ready. Nate groaned and got up and followed me. 

Nate sat on the bed and got on his phone while I connected my phone to the house speaker and got ready for the day. 

She Wildin' came on and I started singing and rapping while dancing around the room as I looked for an outfit in the bag Ari gave me before leaving the hospital. I heard Nate chuckling behind me. I turned around and saw Nate recording me. I covered my face and turned around laughing.

"Naaatttttteeeee!" I whine. 

"I'm only sending it to the group." He said. I didn't have to turn around to know he was smirking. I sighed and kept going. It's not like they haven't seen me do something like this before. 

After finding an outfit and getting dressed, I went to Maggie's room to borrow her straightener. 

"MAGS!" I yelled walking in the room.

"ALEXA!" She yelled back.

"I need to borrow your hair straightener." I said, walking into the bathroom where she was doing her makeup. 

"Here you go," she said handing it to me, "Looking good, babe." 

"Thanks, girly. You're slaying life right now." She laughs and goes back to her makeup. I head back to Nate's room and do my hair and makeup.

I stood in the mirror and sang Needed Me by Rihanna while straightening my hair.

I was good on my own, that's the way it was
That's the way it was

You was good on the low for a faded fuck
On some faded love
Shit, what the fuck you complaining for?
Feeling jaded huh?
Used to trip off that shit I was kickin' to you
Had some fun on the run though I give it to you

But baby
Don't get it twisted
You was just another nigga on the hit list
Tryna fix your inner issues with a bad bitch
Didn't they tell you that I was a savage

Fuck your white horse and a carriage
Bet you never could imagine
Never told you you could have it

You needed me
Ooh
You needed me
To feel a little more, and give a little less
Know you hate to confess
But baby ooh, you needed me

You been rollin' around, shit I'm rollin up
Light and roll it up
Break it down like a pound, shit was never us
Shit was never us
That's the real on the real, are you serious?
How you feel, how you feel?

Used to trip off that shit I was kickin' to ya
Had some fun on the run though, I give it to ya

But baby
Don't get it twisted (don't get it twisted)
You was just another nigga on the hit list
Tryna fix your inner issues with a bad bitch
Didn't they tell you that I was a savage
Fuck your white horse and a carriage
Bet you never could imagine
Never told you you could have it

You needed me
Ooh (ooh)
You needed me (you needed me)
To feel a little more, and give a little less
Know you hate to confess
But baby ooh, you needed me

I heard someone cough and I jumped making me drop the straightener. I looked over to see everyone standing there with their phones out, most likely recording me singing.

"She's still got it." Johnson said, smiling. I smiled back and unplugged everything and walked out of the bathroom. 

"You guys ready?" I asked the girls. They nodded and we started to leave until Nate grabbed my wrist pulling me back to him.

"No kiss?" He asked, giving me the puppy face. I laughed and kissed him. I heard the girls 'awing' behind me. 

"If I find out any guys try to get with you I'm coming down there and kicking their asses. That ass," he says as he squeezes my ass making me yelp, "is mine and only belongs to me. Call me if something happens." 

"My ass doesn't belong to anyone until you officially ask me out, baby boy." I smirk, walking out with the girls. 

"Damn." I hear Sam and Johnson say under their breath as I walk out. I laugh and continue walking out. 

"Where to girls?" Maggie says, once everyone gets into her car.

"The Mall." We all say. Maggie smiles and pulls out of the driveway. I plug my phone into the aux and start playing some music. 

"Who is this?" Maggie asked.

"Derek Luh. He's pretty good, huh?" I asked. The girls all nodded.

"Maybe I could give him a call sometime and everyone could meet him. He'll probably want to make some music with Nate." I said. 

"Sounds like a plan." Mahogany said from the backseat.

Maggie rolled down all the windows and turned the music up as Drake came on. Us, being the girls we are, started screaming the lyrics and recorded each other dancing to the music.
