The Perfect Family

First Day back

A month later

Being back in Cali was weird I was staying with Perla, I slept in Daniel's room

I still hadn't seen my family, my parents begged and pleaded even to Perla but I refused to see them, not now I couldn't just forgive them they'd hurt me too much

It was morning Xavier and I were downstairs watching T.V. we were waiting for Daniel with hi leg injury it took him awhile

"Lexi, can you come help me?"We heard from upstairs

"Go on your boy toy is waiting for you"He winked 

"I will punch you"I threatened 

"Why so violent Gummy? Your boy toy won't put out"I stood up I quickly punched him on the shoulder I walked over to the stairs

"Xavier don't live your life through us because you can't get any" I smiled he made an 'o' with his face 

"Shut up, and go help the princess before she throws a fit" I laughed I ran up the stair he'd thrown one of the pillows to try to make me go faster I walked over to the room when I walked in Daniel stood there with 1 pants leg on I laughed

"It's not funny I seriously can not put this pants leg on and my mom already left can you just help me, please" I smiled and nodded

"By the way our friendship is about to get weird"I got down on the floor in order to help him put his other pants leg on I had just gotten for him to step in the other leg hole

"I like this view"I looked at him he was biting his lip 

"You are gross Daniel Bateman"I helped him till he was able to put them on himself I stood up

"Thank you"

"Your welcome princess now let's go"He grabbed his crutched he didn't really need them but Perla insisted just for another week we finally got downstairs Daniel took some toast and we finally made our way to Xavier 2014 hyundai elantra

Perla had made it very clear that none of them were allowed to drive so I had been their heifers for the past month, Jesse took Allison, and Luke went by himself when we got to school we got out of the car I could see people staring at us they hadn't seen me in over 2 months and neither Daniel and Xavier it was awkward

We got inside people moved when they saw us coming I was guessing it was because of the fact that they feared Daniel but I was quickly proven wrong when I head one of the girls start talking about me I made my way to my locker 

Daniel and Xavier leaned against the ones next to mine I took out a textbook when Daniel tapped me on the shoulder when I looked at him he pointed at something behind me I looked over

"Ben"He stood there, I hadn't seen him he had a bimbo attached to his arm as if it was for dear life 

"Lexi, your---"

"Yeah I'm back"

"I've missed you"

"So i've been told"I said coldly he looked down he was awkwardly standing there "Stop lying to yourself Ben you know what you are just accept it because trust me it's gonna eat you up alive from the inside out"

"I don't know what your talking about?"He was getting nervous 

"Yes you do Ben, why are you trying to hide what you are?It's 2016 grow a pair & tell everyone"people started to stare and some started video taping "Face your problem"

"Like you faced yours by running away"

"Ben"Daniel stood up 

"Don't Daniel, he's right, I ran away but i'm here now so call everyone in our family we can face our problem right here right now"Ben looked around and gulped, he was scared, he took a step back
