Alexis's POV

I woke up to my alarm going off. I rubbed my eyes and groaned. In the middle of the night I changed into pajamas so I was going to keep them on. I shut off the alarm and put my phone in my pocket with everything else. I picked up the still sleeping Max and walked out of the room to see Jake and my mom walking out of their rooms.

We walked out of the room after looking around a bit. I got a text from Colby saying he was out front of the hotel and waiting to take us to the airport. "Mom, I have a friend taking us to the airport." She nodded and we made our way to Colby's car. I got in the front seat.

We drive to the airport. We got out and we started walking inside. Colby was helping us take everything. We did everything we had to do and Colby said he wanted to talk to me. So they waited a little bit away. "Listen Lexi, it was a lot of fun hanging out with you, you're really different from other girls, please think about moving in with us, it will be fun to do that, you won't be the only girl there. And you will, and I promise this, will be safe." He hugged me and I hugged him back. We stayed like that for a bit and then we separated. We left and got on our plane.

****Four hours later****

It is seven in the morning and we are all getting ready to go back to school. I get dressed quickly and run out to my actual car. I kiss the hood and smile as I get in it. Jake got the bus and my mom is taking Max. I drive to school bringing along my camera. I was recording when I suddenly got a call from Colby. I answered it.

"Hey, wassup?" I heard him chuckle. "Hey, just wanted to know if you are alright?" He sounded like he was tired. "Yeah, I am, you should get some sleep though. You sound tired." I heard him sigh a bit. "I will, well umm, I'll see ya later, well talk to you later actually. Bye."

The call ended and I made my way into the parking lot and parked the car. I shut it off and ran inside. I seen Ashley and screamed. She seen me and she screamed as well. We ran to each other and hugged falling on the floor. "Your here! And I seen you in Sam and Colby's video!"

I giggled and nodded. She hugged me again and we got up. I fixed my skirt and she smiled at me. She started recording me. I spun and posed. "Ooooh look at this girl, come cuff her, damn!" I laughed and shook my head. The rest of our friends came over and we hugged.

I didn't bother going to my locker. I went to my first class and they already had everything I missed on my desk. I put it in my folder. The rest of the school day seemed to be like that. But, one thing that was new, was the prom posters. Prom is coming up. And it's glow in the dark and Paris themed.

The bell rang for dismissal and I gathered my things and left. I was gonna go shopping right now and then get started on my work. I drive to the mall and chose a dress. I posted it on my snap with the #goingtoprom. I then drove home and put the dress in my closet. My mom came into my room with my dad.

"Sweetheart, we just seen the video you were in, what the hell were you thinking, why a bowl of cereal?!" They laughed and didn't stop. I started laughing too. "Th-they wanted that to be their moving out party." They laughed and soon left the room. I sat down in bed smiling as I thought about the trip I did.

I took out the work I had and started it. It took me a long time, but, I finally finished it. I was so tired after doing all that work, that I just laid in bed. It didn't last long until I fell asleep.
