Ch. 9 "Don't Tell Alec."

A/N: Hey guys. Sorry for the delay. I just want to focus on studying for a test that is kind of important to me. So now that it is out of the way, I am free to write and post every week. Thanks for you guys' supports. Anyways without further ado, let's get into Ch. 9.

The bing from my cellphone jerk me from my deep slumber. Groaning, I grab my phone to see who have texted me. It was Ashley.

Hey babe. I am so sorry I have to cancel today. I have a major hair incident and need a makeover pronto. Because of this I have to cancel our date. Sorry :(

Great, I thought as I jump out of bed and head to my bathroom. There I begin my morning routine. After finishing the routine, I head out of my room and walk into the kitchen to see that my parents are there.

"Hi guys," I greet my parents.

"Hey Alex," my parents reply.

"So what is on the docket today?" my dad asks.

"Well I was suppose to hangout with Ashley on my day off but she cancel. So I probably just going to relax at the house or going to go out with some friends."

"Sounds good," my mom says. "Pancakes?"

"Yes please," I reply.

My mom set a plate of pancakes in front of me.

I dug in, downing the pancakes as fast as I can.

"So what are you guys up today?" I ask.

"Work," my parents replies in unison.

"Cool," I state.

There is a ping indicating a text message.

"Oh wow," I say as I read the text.

"What is it?" my mom asks.

"Well," I begin. "A friend of mine asks me to hangout with him. He says that he can pick me up."

"Cool," my parents reply. My mom just look at my dad.

"We better get ready for work sweetie."

"Yeah," my dad responds as they get up to walk upstairs so they can get ready.

After ten minutes they walk downstairs in their business casual attire.

"Well we are off to work,"my parents announce.

"Cool," I state as I wave bye to them.

As soon as they left, I watch tv until  I hear the doorbell going off along with a knock on the door. I get up and walk over there and open it to see Magnus on the other side of the door.

"Hey," I greet him.

"What up?" Magnus replies grinning. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah," I reply. "Let me set my alarm and  lock the doors."

"Cool," Magnus replies as he open the door to go outside and close it behind him. After setting the alarm, I open the door to exit my house and close and lock my door behind me. There I see that Magnus is waiting for me on the steps.

"You ready to go?" I ask.

"Yeah," Magnus replies as he begins to walk over to the car that is park in front of my house. I just look at the car, more likely the limo then back to him then back to the limo.

"You have a limo?" I ask.

"Yeah," Magnus grins. "Being the youngest CEO have it perks."

"I bet," I say laughing as Magnus opens the limo door so I can enter it. He soon follows me into it and closes the door.
