Always and Forever, remember?

Chapter 10

************************

Lexi's POV

"Do you still want to meet my friends? Or do you want to go home and rest for a while?" He asked me, looking concerned.

"No, I wanna meet your friends." I told him with a small smile.

"Are you sure? Because we could alw--"

"I'm 100% sure." I said planting a soft kiss on his lips.

"Let's go then." He said smiling.

****

So here I am standing in front of one of Colton's friends' house nervously playing with my fingers. I mean what if they don't like me?

As if he read my mind, he took one of my hands in his and said,

"Don't worry princess, they'll love you."

I just gave him a small smile,

"I really hope so."I replied.

"Hey Will!" A guy about our age stepped out to give Colton a hug.

"Hey man," he replied returning the hug."Where's Darren?"

"He's in the kitchen. Eating .....as usual."

Both of them started laughing and I didn't know what to do. It felt like in the short time I was here I was being forgotten. But that feeling didn't last long when Colton squeezed my hand and turned to friend no. 1 - I don't know his name as yet - and said,

"This is Lexi....my girlfriend. " the way he said it sent my heart into overdrive. Then he turned to me and said, "Lexi, this is Alex."

"Hi" I said shyly. Wait, what? Shyly? When did I become a shy girl? Oh yeah...since the day I met Colton.

"Hey.."Alex said, dragging the word towards the end."So we finally get to meet. We've heard a lot about you. Will here can't keep his mouth shut when it comes to you. He's always Lexi this-, Lexi that- " he said laughing.

I noticed that he kept calling Colton 'Will' which I think was short for Williams.

"Really?" I turned to Colton , raising an eyebrow. "Well I really hope it was all good things." I said.

"Oh yeah it was. Anyway, we wouldn't want you standing in my doorway for the rest of the day would we? Come on in." He said.

Colton was still holding my hand so he lead us both inside. I must say Alex's house was pretty impressive. I'm not gonna describe it much. I'm gonna leave that part to your imagination.

As soon as Colton and I were seated on the couch, he draped his arm casually around my shoulders.

Alex took a seat on a bean bag that was placed right opposite the couch.

"DARREN! Get your ass out here right now!" He yelled.

I started laughing and was soon joined by Colton.

"What? I've been trying to get him out of that kitchen for about an hour now." Alex said defensively.

We continued laughing arte looking at Alex's face.

"What is your problem man?! Can't you let me eat in peace?!" I heard a new voice say. And it sounded like ......he was.....eating.

I turned to see a guy who must have been either the same age as me or a year younger -- with his mouth stuffed. I guessed he was Darren.

"Well..."Alex started, "Colton here brought someone special with him today so.."he trailed off.

That caused Darren to snap his head towards where Colton and I were sitting and as soon as he caught my eye I gave him a small smile. Little did I know what he was gonna do -- spit out his food.

That made Alex, Colton and myself burst into laughter....again. We continued laughing for sometime before I decided to control myself. So I tried to calm my breathing while wiping away the tears. Eventually the boys too stopped laughing.

" Uh..I'm gonna show you around so you'll become a little familiar with the place. "Colton said after sometime.

I nodded and stood up pulling him along with me. He chucked quietly before leading me towards the stairs.

"This is the kitchen....you must have figured that out."he said before he started climbing up.

He continued with the tour occationally stopping to show me some photographs of the three of them together or to share any funny incidents.

The house had four bedrooms out of which three were always ready for them crash in. The other one was a guest bedroom. Each bedroom had it's own bathroom and there was one in the hall too.

We were both laughing when something behind him caught my eye. I walked around him to the room that was there.

As soon as I saw what was in there my eyes widened.

"Oh my God! "

*****************

I'm sorry if this chapter was short but I was having a serious case of writer's block.

I'm not happy with the way I wrote this chapter. But it's gonna continue in the next one and I promise to make it interesting.

Thanks a ton!
