Chapter 21
I sighed before responding, "Not really."
"Lex, you can tell me anything, even the dumbest things. You know that right?"
"Of course I do! And you can too! It's just that I don't feel like talking about it right now."
"Okay," he says after pausing.
A couple of minutes pass before he stands and pulls me by my hand to get up with him. "Wha-" before I can finish he pulls me into what feels like the hundredth hug. "I've gotta go, Lex. My moms cooking dinner. Do ya wanna come over and have dinner at my house?" he said while unwrapping his arms from around me. "No, I kinda lost my appetite. Maybe another time?" "Okay, that's fine." He slowly walked over to my door and opened it. Right when he was about to leave he turns and runs to me with his arms open wide to hug me...again. After a quick hug, he turns on his heel and walks out of my door like nothing even happened. Wow I thought sarcastically.
Niall's POV
I walked inside my house to smell what smelled like mashed potatoes and chicken.
Dinner must be ready, I thought to myself.
I quickly pull off my jacket and head over to the kitchen. "Hi are you ready to eat ?", my mom asked me. "Yep", I said.
I walk over to the table and sat down. My mom plops the mashed potatoes onto my plate. This reminds me of Lexi and our "food fight" on the plane. I had so much fun with her yesterday. We've been coming closer to each other over the past few weeks. I wonder what made her cry? Was it because of me?
My mom interrupts my thoughts. "So are you excited for our vacation?"she asks.
I had totally forgot. We were leaving for Wisconsin for vacation in a couple of days.
"Hey maybe you could ask Lexi if her and her family would like to go with us",my mom said. "Are you sure that's ok with you guys?", I asked. I was so happy and surprised that my mom offered that. If Lexi says yes this is going to be the best trip of my life!
"Sure, their family is very nice and she seems like a really sweet girl.", says my mom. "Yea she is really sweet...and pretty", I say. Wait I just said that out loud. I start to blush and my mom chuckles at me.
"Well you should better go and ask Lexi soon so she has some time to think about it and ask her dad.", my mom says.
"Ok thanks so much mom", I say finishing off chicken. I put my plate in the dishwasher then walk out of the kitchen. I really want to go to her house right now and ask her. But, I was just there and I should probably give her some space.
As I make my way to my room I start thinking of Lexi. When is her mom die? I remember on the plane she was talking about it. I think she said six or seven? Probably seven. I can't help but feel really bad for her. I can't imagine my mom dying. I shake off the thoughts and start admiring Lexi. She beautiful. The way her innocent brown eyes go with her light completion that is surrounded by her long curly brown hair. The way her words smoothly come out of her mouth with an American accent. God, what's wrong with me? I sound like a stalker memorizing every millimeter of her face. Then there's me. Just ugly dumb me. Why does she even like me? I push away my bad thoughts and force myself to sleep. I sure hope Lexi sleeps tonight. She probably looks adorable when she sleeps.
What's wrong with me?
A/N
Hi!!!!!!!!! So me and Kate kind of wrote this chapter. She wrote most of Nialls POV and I wrote Lexi's POV. Soon all three of us will be able to write chapters again. Kate's been updating for almost all of break because I haven't had time. And my library was cleared! I don't know how or why but I share an account. But it was fixed (after a while) so now I'm all good! :)). Anyway, the song I put on repeat for this chapter was One Thing by...well you know. I know it doesn't really go with it but I don't really care. ;)

P.S. I might double update!
