The Life Of Lexi

Chapter twenty

Lexi's POV

"No Abuelita." He choked. Then he just broke. I held him in my arms and l let him cry.

"I'm so sorry...Shhh...It'll be okay. She's in a better place now. " I tried calming him down. He continued crying. We sat on the hallway floor next to the elevator.

"I loved her so much. S-she used to be the one I'll go to when I needed help. She was the one that was always there for me. If I needed to get away, she was where I went. She always made sure that I was good, healthy. She always gave me advice. She always made sure I had good grades. She was always at my boxing fights. Then afterwards, she'll ask if I was okay. I loved her so much. I can't believe she's gone." He vented. He broke down again saying the last part. He had his head in my chest while I played with his hair trying to calm him down.

"Baby. You want to go into the room and talk?" I asked in a soothing voice. He nodded. We stood up and I held his hand rubbing small circles into it. We walked to the room and everyone was still in there. "Get out." I simply said. I Gave everyone a look which sent all of them out. Jonathan and I sat on the bed. I layed down and Jonathan layed kind of on top of me and out his head on my chest. He wasn't crying as much as he was. He was sniffling and hiccuping. "Ssshhhh..baby..she's in a better place now." I said in a soothing voice.

"I know. I don't know what I'm gonna do without her though."

"I know. It'll be okay. I promise."

"Will you come to the funeral with me?" He asked not looking at me. Oh my God. Should I? Is that appropriate? You know what, that's my boyfriend. And I'll support him.

"Yes baby. Of course."

"Thank you."

"No problem." I kissed his head and he drifted to sleep. and so did I.

Morning...

Jonathan's POV

I woke up really comfortable. When I opened my eyes, I was laying on Lexi's chest while her left hand was in my hair. She looked so peaceful. I got up and walked to the bathroom. Then last nights events came to me.

She's gone..

I can't believe she's gone. Oh my God. Why did he take her away from me? Without a warning too. I looked at my reflection and my eyes were red and puffy. I turned on the water and washed my face then brushed my teeth. I walked out the bathroom and checked my phone. I have three missed calls, ten text messages and twenty facebook notifications. I didn't even bother opening any of them. I already know what they're about. I looked over to Lexi and she was on her stomach waking up.

"Goodmorning." She said fluttering her eyes open.

"Goodmorning." I walked over to her and gave her a kiss. "Thank you."

"For what?" She furrowed her eyebrows confused.

"For taking care of me yesterday."

"No need to thank me baby." She said getting up. "Once I seen the look on your face when you got a text message, I knew there was something wrong. "

"You're the best. " I kissed her gently on the lips. We pulled away and she smiled. "Come on we need to pack. It's ten o'clock and out flight is at two." I pulled her off the bed.

"I don't want to leave." She pouted.

"Me either. But we have to. Don't you miss your other friends? Alison? Alizé? Dominic?"

"Yes. I miss them so much. I miss Alizé saying twenty one every five minutes. " she laughed. Her laugh is so cute.

I laughed. "Come on. Let's start packing." We started putting out stuff in our suitcase. Then I realized Ali nor Sari ever sleeps in here. "You know what I just noticed?" I spoke.
