Lacey's P.O.V
Arriving at elite.
We got in line every normal female trying to get in here. Lula waved at max " hey baby"
waving a hundred dollar bill max smiled .. " Lula u don't have to try to bribe me you know I wouldn't take you money".
Yes but brother in law I love to pick at you.
Brother in law?!
Max married my sister Katie
He let us through I spotted roxy in short shorts ,beige heels ,and black polo . Singing on proud Mary by Tina turner. I got to admit she does a great show all eyes were glued upon her dancing like the diva herself. When did her first hair flip the crowd roared.she had a soulful voice for such a tiny woman. The men whistled and the women applauded. She blew me air kisses as she got off of stage . " hey girl you came"
I'm sorry you had to see that
"What !you were amazing you do that every night?"lacey wondered
"No" she fiddled with her hair shyly " margo my boss asked me to sing a few songs til the club filled most patrons like it instead of hearing club music the whole night. Plus I get free cosmo til the club opens. Come on it's on me."
"Hey Logan there with me". Logan gave Lacey a knowing smile. Handing me a purple rose "from your secret admirer."
I smiled and thought about him.. no I'm anti Alex tonight. So is it from you handsome.
He winked" I wish but no" he flirted back " I would give you one each day if you were mine"
Your a charmer I winked back
"So ,what's your name doll face? or angels don't have names" I cut him off.".Only pretty faces
My mind went back to Alex once again. I checked my phone for the first time tonight. Twenty calls from Gabe ..poor dude
Ten text from Alex
One from a unknown number
I opened it up . Only to find .. u will be mine once more whore.
I turned off my phone my heart beat faster. My first response is to run I only put the ones I love at risk of being seriously hurt Paul is psycho.
Roxy is on stage once more singing stronger be jelly clarkson song. It really hit home for Lacey.
Lula at this point is is bouncing up and down . When roxy pushes the microphone out for the crowd to sing;In Which they did.The whole crowd came alive as she worked the stage.
She went to the edge of the room and She texted Alex
Lacey: I'm sorry for acting childish earlier by not talking to you. I know you have a lot on your plate. Alex no more trying control me or my life. Life is not perfect . I am not either
Alex: baby I'm sorry about everything please forgive me. Can I make it up to you? Right now
Lacey: sure where ?
Alex: outside ... now
I waved to logan behind the bar. Can you tell my friend roxy that I'm going. I screamed.
Logan smiled and gave me another purple rose.
Your secret admirer he winked nodding behind me as Alex stood behind me with another rose.
Lacey will you go on a date with me?
I smiled " yes"
I jumped into his awaiting arms he kissed my head. As we headed towards the door He stopped "Lacey let's go out of town for the
weekend."
Aren't you filled with questions tonight? Kissing passionately at the door max cleared his throat . "Move it along kids ." We laughed as we ran to the car where to ? I have a great idea but first I need a call . He made a brief call we went to my favorite pizza restaraunt. Iggie's pizza parlor. The new York slices were big enough to feed a whole family with half a pie. Iggie himself handed Alex a large bag and a pizza box. He sent a text to Chantel :
I know the baby isn't mine! I have proof Jame's recorded you say it yourself so this game is over . I never want to see you around me or my family ever again. So walk away or I will make you .
He smiled at Lacey ; she gazed at him with curiosity. She had never seen him so excited. They went back to his flat he put on music as he got into his comfy sweats and no shirt. " do you me to put on a shirt. I gazed at his bare chest dusted with black springy curls. Making a line down his defined torso.
Today is special he smiled. Today it's my birthday. So where going to do what I always wanted to do on my birthday. Popping in his favorite movie Star Wars. He smiled To nerd out with my girl eating pizza and tiramisu. It's one of the most delicious Italian deserts made .A layered crust of cookies called lady fingers . Drenched with espresso,fold in mascarpone and whipped topping .topped with and of course powder chocolate giving it a richness. She licked her lips as he described immense detail . His deep voice ;even made desserts sound sexy. He pulled a blanket from an arm chair. we snuggled ate meat lovers New York style pizza . Finished with one of the decidant dessert Lacey ever eaten.
Happy birthday Alex.
We kissed "this has been the best birthday ever. "How can you say that ?
He smiled I spent it with you my favorite movie, food , and cake.
The door bell rang . I will get it to hear a crack and Alex crumple to the floor . Paul called out " Missed me" I pulled out my phone and called the cops I screamed out there going to be here in any second. Hit her in the face hearing bone break. I heard Chantel scream from the hall.
Third person P.O.V
They found out that that he's not the father ! My plan is ruined so I have to execute plan B. Tie up all the loose ends.
What did you do Paul? She wailed
Paul retorted back sharply " what I did is nothing concerning you"
"Paul I can't go to jail". Chantel started to cry " Paul you need mental help .,you are unstable..."
"You just figure that out my dear...Your not going to jail ....your going down "Paul sneered maliciously
Down where? she said
I heard her scream has "down the stairs"as she tumbled down two flights of stairs.
