I lied there in the darkness of Alexandra's room. I was on the pullout, again. I thought for sure she was asleep but she spoke suddenly.

“My birthday is next week,” she said quietly. I think she thought I might be asleep.

“I know, big sixteen, isn't it?” I asked, already knowing the answer.

“Yeah.”

“So what are we doing for your sweet sixteen, Lex?”

“Just a small party.”

“If that's what you want.” I was going to give her the best birthday ever.

I am so so sorry. This 'chapter' is so freakin short! Sorry.
