"How come that you can't get out of my grip when I push you against the wall and hold your hands above your head, but you can get out of a chokehold, while someone is holding a gun against your head?"

"Because I was fuming and adrenaline was pumping through my blood. Plus you're stronger than Caleb" I sigh, giving him an eye roll

"I'm sorry, Lex" he sighs, looking me straight in my eyes

Now

My cheeks threaten to turn red, so I quickly speak.

"For what?"

"Not listening to you"

"And?"

"I know you want me to say that I'm sorry for meeting Caleb yesterday and keeping you in the blue about it and that you want me to say sorry for sneaking out and handcuffing you to you to your bed. But I don't regret any of that"

"Why not?" I ask, feeling slightly disappointed

"Because I did it with good intentions. I wanted to end all of the Caleb shít. I wanted to protect you. I don't want you to go through anymore shít that Caleb has caused. I want you to be able to live happily without worrying about Caleb, Just like Jay and Jake. And don't tell me that you don't worry about it anymore, because I know you do and I know you still have those nightmares" he sighs

"Okay fine, I do and I still have those nightmares, but that's something we'll discuss later. I understand where you are coming from and I appreciate that you want to help me, but that doesn't mean that I'm okay with it. You got me worried sick, you chained me to my freaking bed. You made Connor promise to not let us borrow his car, which we still did, by the way. You could've gotten yourself killed. You didn't even tell me anything. How do you think I would feel if you didn't come home and I found out that Caleb killed you, Jake and Jay?" I hiss and all the anger I had left comes out

"I didn't look at it like that" he mumbles embarrassed

"Of course you didn't" I chuckle bitterly

"I'm sorry, Lex. I'm so, so sorry"

I sigh deeply, before looking him straight in the eyes.

"I want you to pinky promise me that you'll never do something like this again" I hold my pinky up and he moves his pinky to mine

"Wait" I say suddenly

"What is it?" He sighs

"You have to buy me chocolate" I smile

He rolls his eyes and wraps his pinky around mine.

"I promise" he smiles, "and I'm really, really sorry"

"Apology accepted" I say, making him sigh in relief as he moves closer to me

"Naha" I turn my head around, but he takes both my wrists in one of his hands and moves the other under my chin to make me look at him

"You know how badáss you were last night when you did that to Caleb?"

Here come the sexual innuendos.

"You've been wanting to tell me that since yesterday, didn't you?" I ask, narrowing my eyes in amusement

"Maybe" he smirks

"But, do you know?" he asks, raising his eyebrows questioningly

"Why don't you tell me?" I raise my eyebrows cockily

Oh god. I'm starting to sound like Mason.

"Really badáss and feisty" he whispers in my ear

"And you know how much of a turn on that is to me" he continues and my cheeks flush scarlet red

"And I heard you bought some sexy lingerie" he whispers as he moves his lips down to my neck

I sigh in pleasure, but am reminded of the promise I once made with myself.

"Mason, we need to talk about this"

He moves back and nods. We sit down on my bed and start speaking at the same time. He gestures for me to move on and so do I. After I-don't-know how long arguing about who's going to speak first, I decide that I'm just going to say what I want to say.

"I'm not ready for you know. And I want to wait until I'm 100% sure I am"

"That's okay, Lex. I'll wait until you're ready, even if that takes 38 years. I want you for you, not for your body. Sure your body is beautiful, but you know what I mean" he smiles, reassuring me and I nod my head, a big smile tugging at my lips in relief.

"Thanks," I smile

I turn us around and deepen the kiss. Mason doesn't approve and turns us over again. I chuckle and mentally roll my eyes.

'Remember, Alex, you're stubborn.' My mind says to me, giving me an idea

I turn us over again and thank myself for convincing my mom to buy me a king sized bed. Otherwise we would have hit the ground by now.

Mason groans frustrated and I smirk in satisfaction.

Hehe.

"Stop it Lex" he narrows his eyes at me before turning us around once more and making amends to tickle me"

"No! Don't tickle me!"

I throw my pillow at him, but immediately regret it.

"Don't start a pillow fight with me" I squeal, my eyes widening

"Don't worry, I won't" he smirks

"Loser"

I forgot there was some secret message in the word, but am kindly reminded by Mason's chuckles and his amused face

"I'm not even going to ask"

"Why not? Maybe I'll tell you" he shrugs

"Why does everyone laugh when I say loser?" I ask, rolling my eyes

"I'm not telling you" he smirks

"Argh, fudge off" I groan
