Alexandra's POV
A Week Later

   "Ow." I huffed, trying to pull my sweatpants up.
   "Here. Let me-" James started.
   "No! I can do it. I'm fine." I snapped, James sighed and I pulled them all the way up with a grunt. "See?" I'm home now and trying to recover. James and I leave for America next weekend and I'm kind of scared. I mean...John is excited and I am too but-...I'm nervous. John is awesome and he's my best friend, I would love to meet him. I'm just afraid of him ignoring me or something. I've never really had friends and John is my best friend. I don't want him to leave or something.
   "Alright. Congrats, you put pants on. I'm late for work." He sighed, I smiled lightly and carefully tied my drawstrings. "Please stay in bed? Talk to John or something. Just don't-... Try not to hurt yourself?"
   "I won't." I smiled, he kissed my head and left the apartment. I sighed and opened my drawer. I bit my lip and pulled out my makeup bag. I learned how to do my makeup from watching YouTube videos, it was a lot of trial and error before I got good. I used to have to hide it from James but when I came out to him he was supportive about it. I started doing my makeup and my laptop started chiming. I picked it up but frowned. It wasn't John. It was Laf. I sighed heavily and answered it. "Hello?"
   "Hey."
   "What do you want?" I huffed, blending my concealer.
   "I'm sorry." I frowned and turned toward my computer. My camera was off but his was on. "I know I've been kind of a jerk but I was just poking fun. I didn't mean to piss you off. I know John likes playing with you. Please come back?"
   "Wait...What?"
   "You haven't been on for a couple weeks and I thought-"
   "No, no, no...I-uh-...I was in the hospital."
   "What...Why were you there?"
   "It's none of your business. I'll be on later." I sighed.
   "Oh...ok. Um-...Bye then." He hung up and I frowned. I called John and he answered pretty quickly. I made sure to turn my camera on or he'd complain.
   "Hey, Lexis." He smiled, walking through his kitchen. "I just finished my set up! Wanna see?"
   "Sure. Um-...Laf just called me."
   "What? What'd he say?"
   "He apologized to me. Did you yell at him?"
   "No. What'd he apologize for?"
   "He thought it was his fault I haven't played in a couple days."
   "Well isn't it?" He chuckled. "You said you didn't wanna get on while you were in the hospital because you didn't want Laf making fun of you."
   "Yeah...'Or something'. I really meant that it was hard for me to sit up and play comfortably." I huffed.
   "Then why didn't you say that?"
   "I didn't want you to call me a baby." I grumbled.
   "Why would I do that?"
   "I don't know."
   "I'd never call you a baby in a derogatory fashion."
   "So you would call me a baby?" I grumbled.
   "Yeah but like-...I don't know." He huffed, I rolled my eyes and John sighed. "I'd only call you a baby like-...'Hey, baby'." He grumbled.
   "Like I'm your girlfriend?"
   "Well...no-"
   "Martha-"
   "I don't care."
  "Is she driving you crazy again?"
   "Yeah...I think she was just trying to get me to stay." He huffed.
   "Oh..."
   "You don't have to say it. I know. I just-...I can't." He huffed, I smiled lightly but my heart ached for him. I just wish I could make everything better for him.
   "It'll be ok." I smiled. "We leave for America next weekend. We can go do something or you can teach me the ways of Americans." I grinned, John managed a smile and chuckled.
   "Yeah...I think I know what we can do." He smiled.
   "Yay!" I giggled, John laughed and I smiled. I liked seeing him smile and laugh. I like it when he's happy. I wish he was happy all the time.
   "Hey...I know you said y'all are taking a boat. Can I pick you up at the dock? I wanna meet you as soon as possible."
   "Um...Yeah...Sure." I smiled, John grinned and ran his fingers through his blonde hair.
   "Hey...Should I cut my hair?"
   "What do you mean?"
   "My dad told me to cut my hair like a normal person for college." He mumbled.
   "What! No! Don't cut your hair! It's cool! Your dad is still in South Carolina! Why does he get a say in your hair away! It's your hair!"
   "Ok...I won't cut it if you like it."
   "Do you like it?"
   "You don't like it?"
   "I'm not the point. Do you like your hair like that?"
   "Yeah...It's kind of cool."
   "Ok. Then keep it like that."
   "But do you like it?"
   "Yeah. I like it, John. It's cool." I smiled , John blushed lightly and smiled. "I thought you were gonna show me your set up?"
   "Oh, yeah!" He ran through his penthouse and threw open the door to his gaming room. He turned the camera around and I giggled. His set up was mostly blue but there was a separate PC that was green.
   "Why do you have two PC's?"
   "Oh...You're gonna be mad."
   "Why would I be mad?" I frowned.

"Cause it's yours." He mumbled, I felt my face flush deep red and I groaned.
   "John...PC's are expensive. Why would you waste your money on-"
   "Because you deserve, at least, one amazing thing in your life. I know you said you couldn't afford one and I'm rich. I hate it. If I can spend my money to make you smile then I will spend every last cent." I felt tears spill down my cheeks and I huffed, having just finished my makeup. "Please don't cry?"
   "You bought me a PC! Of course I'm gonna cry!"
   "Oh, Alexis." He chuckled a bit, I dabbed at my eyes and huffed.
   "Thank you." I whispered.
   "Of course, baby." He smiled, I blushed a bit and he grinned. "See, like that." He hummed.
