Used To Be Lonely

Chap 10

Alexis' POV

Blake and I got to the mall and got our skates. We sat down. "What's everyone looking at?" I asked.

"I don't know," said Blake as we got on out skates. "I'll be right back. I have to go to the bathroom."

"Okay, I'll see you in a bit," I said. "Don't take too long." Blake left towards the crowd. I guess that's where the bathroom was. My phone rang and I picked up. "Hello?"

"Alexis, what are you doing?" asked Tony. "Ice skating, really? We went roller skating."

I stood up and looked around. "I don't know where you are Tony," I said. "But know that I am armed and you cannot come within fifty feet of me."

"I didn't get papers," said Tony.

"You've been served," said a voice on the other end.

"You got your papers now," I said smiling. "I gotta go." I hung up and put my phone in my pocket. "Blake, where are you?" I got tired of waiting, so I went to see what the crowd was looking at. There was a huge heart made of white rose petals and carved into the ice was "will you be my girlfriend?" Blake was there standing on the ice being his cute little self. I walked to the entrance. "Blake."

"I gotta hand it to you," said Blake smiling. "You don't make it easy trying to ask a simple question." I smiled at him. "So, to the most beautiful girl I know who is an amazing FBI agent, will you be the Juliet to my Romeo?" I couldn't find my words. I skated over to him and gave him a hug. "I take that as a yes?" I nodded yes. "She says yes." The crowd cheered and applauded as we let go. "You seriously don't make it easy."

"Well, I can't resist you," I said.

"Let's get out of here," said Blake. We went back to my place in Austin. I pulled Blake up to my room. "What are you doing?"

"Well, I want you to hear the duet I wrote," I said. I sat in front of my desktop and Blake stood behind me. I started typing and played a track. "This is just a raw edit of it and Nathan isn't really the best singer." We listened to the track. "So, what do you think?"

"I like it," said Blake. "But I think we should change like to love." I smiled at him. "You think?"

"I love that idea," I said. I walked over to my bed and sat down. I grabbed Britney's guitar and started playing. We sang the lyrics and changed up a few things. "Sounds better than the edit."

"Did you write that song?" asked Blake.

"I'm not huge into songwriting," I said. "It took me almost a year to write that."

"I think we should perform it Saturday," said Blake. "As an original."

"Really?" I asked. "Will Jonnie allow it?"

"I think he'll allow it," said Blake. "He said yes to me performing with Sidney." I nodded. "Yeah?"

"We should definately perform it," I said.

"Alexis?" asked Britney from downstairs.

"Coming," I said putting the gutiar back. I walked downstairs and Blake followed me. "Yeah?"

"I was wondering if I could live here with you, permenately," said Britney.

"Yeah but you're going to have to share a room with someone," I said.

"She can share with me," said Devin.

Her cheeks flushed pink. "Okay, but no funny business," I said. "Seriously!" Her phone rang and she picked up. "Agent Alexis Inthavong."
