A Foster. ~ The Grier Family.

C.13

R/ can we talk to you?
~

Lexi-"Yeah.."
I sat down on the chair and mom and dad both sat on the couch.

Mom-"Are the boys being nice to you?"

Lexi-"Yeah.. I mean for the most part."

Mom-"Who isn't?"

Lexi-"Its just I don't feel like as much of a part of the family as Bryce does, maybe because it's just a family of all boys."

Mom-"How's your androphobia?"

Lexi-"Its been okay. I'm having trouble with Nash and Cameron."

Mom-"And Hayes and Will and dad are okay?"

Lexi-"well I'm not perfectly fine with them. Will kind of scares me, only because he's tall and pretty strong but Hayes doesn't scare me much. I can talk to him and will normally just I have that fear in the back of my head. I'm not really scared of dad though."

Mom-"Okay well we were thinking of putting you in counseling...."

Lexi-"I don't need it."

Mom-"Lexi..."

Lexi-"I don't want it.."

Mom-"It can help. We have a session next week after school on Monday."

That was only four days away.

Lexi-"I don't wanna go!"

Mom-"Well you are."

I went into my room and grabbed a small black coat and my headphones. I jammed them into my ears as I turned music on.
I grabbed some money that I had saved up and put it into my pocket and walked out of the hotel room door.

I ran into will on my way out to the pier to shop.

Will-"Hey hey hey what happened?"

Lexi-"I have to go to counseling for my androphobia on Monday and I don't really want to."

Will-"Its okay. You're gonna be okay."

Lexi-"I just don't wanna go will."

Will hugged me and I started to cry but immediately stopped.

Lexi-"I'm gonna go shop."

Will-"I'll help you."

Lexi-"Okay."

We walked towards the pier and he asked me.

Will-"Are you afraid of me lex?"

Lexi-"Only a little."

Will-"I have one more question."

Will-"Why does Hayes talk about you so much?"

Lexi-"I don't know I mean, were close."

Will-"I'm sorry I have to leave as soon as you finally get to like me."

Lexi-"Its okay. When are you coming back?"

Will-"In about three months I can come back to visit

Lexi-"Okay."

Will-"let's shop"

We walked off and went to tons of different stores and we're finally done past midnight and I didn't even realize.

Lexi-"Oh my gosh we're late."

Lexi-"Go back and tell mom I'm on my way up, I'm gonna grab a smoothie."

Will-"Alright."

I walked over to the smoothie cart and I saw Hayes walking towards me.

Lexi-"I'm sorry I was being mean to you, you haven't done anything to me and I'm sorry that I have been so rude."

Hayes-"It's okay. I understand Lexi."

He grabbed my hand and we walked back into the hotel and up to our room.
