8:09 pm

That's the time we got home. When we first left the house we decided to eat breakfast since we knew we would be at the mall all day. At breakfast, we basically just talked about our lives. The girls wanted me to fill them in on how I met Justin and Ariana. Mahogany told me how she was no longer into Jacob, Matt and Jenn are still together, and Maggie no longer is with Carter. When Maggie told me that they broke up she looked like she could throw up just by mentioning his name. I don't want to nosey and ask her what happened, but she's still my best friend and I should know what happened. 

We went to a bunch of different stores. I'm glad I went with the girls because I was able to clear my mind about everything that's happened in the past week and just have fun.

When Maggie pulled into the driveway we all hopped out of the car and ran inside with our hands full of bags.

Since none of us could open the door, Jenn rang the doorbell. Hayes was the one to open the door.

"What the hell? Did you guys buy everything you saw?" We giggled and ran past him, into the house.

"Woah.." Cameron said with wide eyes. Everyone turned their attention to us and had the same look as Cameron. 

"Ma, I think you had a little too much fun at the mall." Nate said, walking over to me. So maybe, I had like 5 or 10 more bangs than the other girls, but a girl can shop, right? 

"Nate, you told me to go have fun with the girls, so that's what I did." I said, smiling. He chuckled and walked away.

The girls and I went to put our bags away then came back out to see the boys spread across the room on their phones. 

I looked at the girls and rolled my eyes.

"Alright, get up. All of you!" I said, getting their attention. 

"Hold on, where's Nash?" Maggie asks.

"He went home with Skylynn. Mom doesn't trust me enough to take her back home. She thinks I'll lose Sky in the airport." Hayes says, rolling his eyes. We all laugh, knowing he probably would lose her.

I hooked my phone up to the house speaker and started playing music and started dancing.

The girls soon joined in while the guys just stood there looking at us like we were crazy. 

I walked over to Nate, still singing and dancing, pulling him to where I was just standing, trying to get him to join me. He chuckled and shook his head. I gave him the puppy dog look and he groaned and joined the girls and I.

"Bro, your pussy whipped!" Hayes said over the music, laughing. I walk over to Hayes and grabbed his hands and started dancing with him, goofing around. He tried to act like he was bored until he started laughing when I started screaming the lyrics to Oui by Jeremih. 

"Alright. Alright! I see why he gave in." Hayes said. I laughed then walked to the fridge grabbing a couple of drinks.

Jenn soon joined me. We started twerking to Round of Applause by Waka Flocka Ft. Drake, getting together snacks. 

Jenn and I started dying laughing because she normally wasn't the type of girl to do something like that. 

"Damn, you're even teaching my girl new things." Matt says, walking in the kitchen, wrapping his arms around Jenn. I smirked at them as she laughed at Matt for saying that.

I left them in the kitchen and brought out snacks and drinks for everyone. 

"Shit, I'm gonna start dancing now!" Johnson said, quickly standing up, seeing me walk in with food and drinks. I playfully roll my eyes and sit everything down on the table and walk over to Nate.

He was standing next to Sammy and Cameron. His back was facing me and Sammy and Cameron could perfectly see me. 

As I was walking up behind Nate, Sammy and Cameron saw me. I quickly hinted to them not to say anything or make it obvious. 

When I reached Nate, I jumped on his back, wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck and kissed his neck. 

He wasn't surprised that I tried to be sneaky and scare him so he just kept talking. 

I jumped off of his back and walked over to Hayes.

"Poo Bear!" I said, jumping on his back. 

"Big booty Lexie!" He says, adjusting me on his back. I laugh at the nickname.

"Hey! You remembered!" I smile. He laughs and nods his head.

"I can't believe you're 18, turning 19 in a couple of days!" I say, fake crying. He chuckles.

"I can't believe you're 20, turning 21 three weeks after my birthday." He says, fake crying.

"I know.. But you aren't a baby anymore! I missed seeing my baby boy, Poo Bear grow up into this fine looking adult." I said, starting to actually cry. He laughs and sets me down on the ground. He turns around and pulls me into his arms.

"Hey! Don't cry, Alexa! You're here now and that's all that matters to me, to all of us!" He says, trying to calm me down, "Fine looking adult, huh?" He asks, smirking. I playfully roll my eyes. 

The rest of the night consisted of me dancing with Hayes. This boy has always been like a brother to me. I just can't believe I missed growing up with these people. I wasn't there for prom night, graduation, breakups.. I missed out on a lot of things and I don't think I can ever forgive myself for that.


  My baby boy is 16 today!!!! I'm just going to stay in bed all day and watch videos, edits and pictures from over the past 3 years of my baby. It's hard seeing all the boys grow up and doing different things.. And some of them doing things I wouldn't have expected them to do now a couple years back.. I need them to stop getting older! I'm starting to sound like a mom now so I'ma go...
