Chapter 20: Lexi's POV:

As soon as I arrived at school is was greeted by Chase and his all to familiar smirk that i have to admit looks pretty damn hot on him. I grab my bag from out the car and quickly lock it before walking next to him making my way to my locker.

"so.." he smirks as i look up at him in complete confusion "you never did say why you where awake at 4 though I'm guess it was much earlier than that"

My face goes bright red in embarrassment as the night, well more like the morning, replays in my head. "i couldn't sleep?" i drag out the sentence coming up with an excuse though it comes out as more of a question making me cringe and sigh under my breath when he gives me a smile that clearly shows that he isn't buying my lie. "okay truth is i got super drunk at this party the night before and i woke up later in the day then had another nap that lasted til like 12-sh making me completely wide awake and super bored"

"fair enough" he says laughing at my completely weird story.

"hey why where you awake at like 4 in the morning, i told you why so you have to give me your excuse, but it better be the truth"

he looks away from me awkwardly and takes a deep breath before saying "i forgot to do the math work for Mr Whitely, so at like 1 in the morning i was working on it but after it was done i couldn't sleep and, sadly, you are pretty much the only friend i have in this town and i assumed you being weird and all would be awake to keep me company" he says sending me into a fit of laughter.

"well you are true on the whole 'me being weird' part, but i just don't understand why a tough and scary 'bad boy' like you would ever do homework that you accidentally forgot about like why don't you just not do it?"

his face goes the same colour a firetruck when he says "Mr Whitely scares me okay, he is just so creepy and i don't want to upset him" i am sent into another fit of laughter this time Chase joins in but both our laughing stops as soon as Chelsea, Rachel and Poppy. AKA my three ex-best friends. I roll my eyes at their formation, The cliche pyramid, of course with their ring-leader, Chelsea, at the front.

"Hey Chase" Chelsea says with flirtatious eyes to Chase while she seductively plays with the sleeve of his plain white t-shirt.

"Hi...Charlie?" he says annoyed and clearly wanting to be anywhere but near Chelsea.

"It's Chelsea" she says slightly annoyed for a minute but quickly goes back into flirty mode. When Chelsea see's something she wants she will literally go after it until it becomes her, this mainly applies to guys. "so do you have any plans for tonight? Because my parents are out of town and i would love some company"

"Umm...i am busy though I'm pretty sure you can find some other one night stand to keep you company" he says making her face drop completely, her mouth wide open in shock. i try to hide my laughter though when Chase tell her to close her mouth as she might catch flies i erupt into laughter causing people, who aren't already watching this little exchange, to look at me as if i need to be sent to a mental asylum.

"oh...umm..what are you even doing then" she mumbles out rushing the last part out sounding like such a spoilt child who doesn't get what they want, oh wait that is exactly who she is.
"I'm hanging out with Lexi" he says not bothering to check whether or not it's okay with me.

How rude!

"okay whatever well i didn't even want you to come over" Chelsea replies.

"than why did you ask in the first place if you didn't even want me to come over?" he asks with his cocky smirk showing on his face.

"because...because...ARGH YOUR BOTH SO ANNOYING" she shouts before stomping her feet and storming off with Poppy and Rachel in tow, sending me apologetic looks that i blatantly ignore.

Chase and i look at each other as if the encounter was completely normal and walk together to our homeroom to be greeted with everyones looks of either awe or disgust. I roll my eyes at everyones reactions and take my seat.

Everyone is dead silent as i randomly say a little too loudly to chase "Chase? why is you favourite animal a goat?"

The looks i get from everyone in the room is priceless but whats the best is the shocked expression fro Mrs Greene as she walks into the classroom, she looks from me to Chase who i was speaking to than she simply walks over to her desk and doesn't say a word.

I look back at Chase and see him looking at me as if I've grown another head. "what on earth made you feel like sharing that very random and personal information with the whole class?"

"i remember you talking about it this morning and i got super confused why that was so i asked you but i didn't realise the whole room was silent and it came out louder than i had anticipated" i say in a rush making it a challenge to understand.

"You really are one of a kind" he says just before the teacher takes the roll.

It is finally lunch. 'Thank god' I think to my self before I empty out the contents of my bag into my locker, grabbing what is needed for the next class. I need to go to my locker before lunch most of the time because all my classes are in the opposite direction of my locker and it takes way too long to get there and I end up getting a detention which will surely make my mum kill me and I'm pretty sure I want to live to see another day.

After everything is in my bag and my locker is locked, I go down to the lunchroom. I'm well aware that by this time everything that is slightly decent to eat will be gone meaning I'll either have to eat some sort of rubbish or I can starve, I'm not in the mood to get sick with food poisoning so I just take a seat next to Chase at our usual table  situated on the far side of the room. He looks down at the empty table in front of me and frowns at the lack of food.
"Why don't you have any food?" He asks seriously concerned. Which only makes me want to laugh but I hold it in.
"They didn't have anything remotely edible at the canteen so I just decided to ditch the whole eating thing for now, I'm not starving myself. Trust me, I eat so much that my parent wish, well most of the time, that I do starve myself" I say with a laugh remembering all the times when my parents get home from work to a house with absolutely nothing to eat meaning me have too eat out.
"Oh...Okay" he says joining in on my laughing "so did u drive to school today?"
"Yea?" I question him.
"Okay well seeing as you will be coming to mine tonight, mind giving me a lift, my motorbikes in the shop and I rode my skateboard to school"
"Yea sure"
We start talking about random things with me stealing a few chips here and there without him noticing, I practically eat his whole plate of chips and nuggets. Which they where pretty damn good.

The bells goes and I'm walking towards my last couple of classes before the end of the day. Though if anyone where to look at me they would assume that I am a zombie who has recently awoken after being dead for many many centuries. Though everyone in the hall makes a parting for me too pass, everyone is acting as if I'm the queen of England but let's be honest, Im far from it.
The fact that I had no sleep last night has Caught up with me during the last period of the day. I was nodding off to Mrs Dunkens voice only staying awake by the ever annoying taps on my back shoulder from Chase. Even though he was depriving me of sleep, I'm slightly grateful because that means I won't have to get a detention meaning I won't have to stay at school for longer than needed.
The final bell rings, waking me up from my daydreaming about who knows what. After Stopping off at Chases locker, we begin our departure out of the overflow of traffic in the schools overpacked car park and into the busy streets towards Chases house.

Authors Note:

Hi...

I know once again it's been a long time since I've updated but I've been trying to not only write this chapter but work out what I'm doing for the rest of the story, if you guys know what I mean.

I have a pretty good idea on what direction I'm taking 'Trespassing On Trouble' so I will most likely be updating more, though I can't promise anything.

Love you all <3

XOXO
