I lay on the couch, rereading my book. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. That book series has given me an escape from my mother and helped me through so much. It'll always be my favorite.
A knock at the door interrupts my reading. I get up from the couch and walk to the door opening it to see Debbie at the door.
"Hey Lexi, you said you'd come hang out and I wanted to see if you wanted to come to a club with me and Fiona. Help you settle in and have some fun." She asks me hopefully.
"Sure. Gives me something to do tonight I guess haha." I smile at her. Might as well since she's my neighbor. Kev told me the Gallaghers live right next to them. Six kids including Fiona and there drunk of a father I was told.
" I don't have any good clothes though." I frowned.
"I'm sure Fiona would let you borrow some of her clothes." Debbie replies to me after thinking for a moment.
"Alright, let me just got let Kev and Vee know." I run upstairs to Kev and Vees room.
I knock on the door, not wanting to see anything I shouldn't.
"Come in!" I hear Kev yell from the other side.
I walk into there room, Vee sitting as far away from Kev as possible.
"Hey, Debbie just invited me to go with her and Fiona somewhere. I just wanted to let you guys know.." I trail off.
"Alright, just stay safe." Kev replies to me, giving me a pointed look.
"Don't worry dad, I will." I said slightly sarcastically but still jokingly.
I walk out of there room and back downstairs, grabbing my new over the shoulder bag that Vee had given me, containing my cell and iPod with my wallet and left over money I stole from my mother.
"Come on, let's go." I pull Debbie out of the house and down the steps outside.
We walk side by side over to her house and inside. The home was slightly messy but gave off a nice homey feeling. Fiona sitting on the couch waiting for us.
"Hey Fi? Could Lexi here borrow a dress? She doesn't have any clothes that would be nice for clubbing." Debbie asks Fiona sweetly.
"Of course Lexi, your new around here. You deserve a fun night after traveling for two days here." Fiona smiles down at me.
I smile at her, " thank you guys so much."
"Come on, I'll show you where to go." Debbie grabs my hand and takes me upstairs to get ready.
As we get upstairs, Debbie goes towards the bathroom and tries to open the door finding it locked.
"ugh! Carl! Get out! Me and Lexi need to get in there!" She yells annoyed.
A young male voice yells back at her, " I was here first, dumbass!"
The door opens to reveal the same boy from the pool that I made that awkward eye contact with. His eyes widen with surprise then he smirks.
"Well, who's your friend here Debbie?" He looks down at me. Me being an inch shorter.
I scoff. "I can introduce myself." I keep eye contact with him, not daring to back down. His eyes were hypnotizing honestly. He's extremely attractive but I can tell he's a bit of a fuckboy.
"I'm Alexis. But you can call me Lexi I guess." I said to the boy, smirking back at him.
Debbie rolls her eyes and pushes passed Carl into the bathroom, grabbing makeup.
"Fiona's room is just down the hall on the right, pick a dress you'd like to wear her in her closet." Debbie directs me.
I nod at her, glancing back at Carl and turn around heading to the room she told me too.
Carl's POV (there will be some different point of views)
Who even is this girl. I stare at the brunette haired girl, staring at her ass as she walks away. She has a pretty nice ass, I have to admit.
Debs walks out of the bathroom and stands next to me.
"You can stop staring at her like a piece of meat now." She rolls her eyes at me.
"I can't help it. She's fucking hot." I smirk. "Plus the way she punched that guy at the pool earlier today, that was sexy"
Debbie scoffs at me and walks towards Fiona's room where Lexi was. Lexi. That's a nice name.
Lexi's POV
I pick out this skin tight black dress, wearing my black converse I brought with me from home. My back slightly exposed and strings in the front. The dress falls above my knees, with sleeves."Damn!" Debbie exclaims when she walks in the room. "You look hot!"
I laugh and look in the mirror. I do look pretty nice.
Debbie starts doing my makeup, giving me a nice smokey eye with winged eyeliner. She looks at her work and decides it was good enough.
Debbie and I walk down stairs back into the living room where Fiona sits on the couch waiting for us, Carl sitting next to her.
Fiona looks up at us and stands up. She looks at me up and down and smiles.
"Damn Lex, you look great." She exclaims, her eyes widening in surprise.
"You look better in that dress than I ever have, you can just have it. I barely wear it anyways." She smiles at me.
"Thanks Fiona, that's really nice of you." I smile back at her.
Carl turns around and looks at me, his jaw dropping when he sees me.
"Damn girl, you look fine." He looks at me up and down studying me. Our eyes meet and he smirks.
I scowl, my face getting hot. Debbie rolls her eyes at him and grabs my hand.
"Come on, let's go." She leads me to the door, Fiona following behind us.
Tonight's gonna be fun.
