Justin looked around the room and back over to Alexis. He let a smile glide onto his lips to reassure her that she did nothing wrong. He pulled his hand gently out of hers and walked over to the kitchen. He placed the envelope down that had his name sloppily written across the front. He opened the fridge and pulled out two-ice teas. He glanced back up at Alexis who still looked confused.
“Have you called JC since you left the studio?” Justin asked softly.
“No, I should do that now,” Alexis smiled and pulled the pink cell phone out of the back of her pocket. She began to dial the number as she kept Justin in view. She waited patiently to hear JC answer on the other end. She finally heard him pick up the phone and say hi as if he were out of breath, “Hey baby what are you doing?”
“I just walked in the door. Where are you?” JC asked.
“I’m at Justin’s right now, he and I were talking about going to get some food, is that alright with you?” Alexis asked. Although she had a lot of feelings for Justin, she still cared about JC.
“Yeah baby, that’s fine. Are you coming to stay with me tonight?” JC asked sweetly.
“Yeah I am, I’m going to have Justin drop me off as soon as were done eating. You’re okay with this right?” Alexis wanted to make sure he was okay with the whole “Justin and Alexandra” thing.
“Yes, I’m really alright with it, just no smooching.” JC laughed.
“Alright baby, I’ll see you later tonight okay?” Alexis smiled.
“Yeah bye.” JC said.
With that Alexis hung up and walked over to Justin who was looking at the envelope. He was strongly debating on if he really wanted to open it or not. He didn’t know why Arianna wasn’t there but he honestly wasn’t concerned with it. He wanted to spend time with Alexis. He missed her terribly, and now she’s standing before him again. She was the prettiest he had EVER seen her. Her VERY build dancer type body was under a black long sleeve turtle neck top and a tan skirt that hugged her curves all the way to her knees.
“Uh, where do you want to eat Alex?” Justin asked.
“I don’t care but I’m getting hungry so let’s go.” Alexis looked around Justin and AJ’s home. You could tell she did most of the decorating.
“Alright, we’ll go to Sun down then I’ll take you back to JC’s.” Justin grabbed his cell phone off the charger and put the note in his back pocket. He turned off the lights as he walked through the house. He wrapped his arm around Alexis’s neck and they left. The drive to restaurant was short and silent. Justin got out and opened the door for his beautiful ex-girlfriend and they continued into the restaurant.

Arianna threw her Pathfinder into park. She normally parked in the back but she did have time to drive around the parking lot. She glared up at the small apartments in front of her. Alexis was going to take her life away. Just like Justin and her ass hole of a dad in New York. Arianna let her brown eyes meet the mirror to make sure everything was in order. She climbed out of the car and began to walk towards apartment number 430. She wiggled at the knob a little to find at her surprise that it was open. The living room was dark as well as leading into the small hallway. She heard some noise and pulled back.
“Come in!” She heard him shout. Arianna shut the door behind her softly and set her purse down on the coffee table. She looked around once more to make sure no one else was around then continued down the tiny hall. She stopped at the open door. The room was dark and she couldn’t see a thing in front of her.
“Alexis?” JC asked.
“Mmmhmm,” Arianna moaned trying not to make herself sound too much like, herself.
“Come in here baby, shut the door behind you.” JC said. Arianna did as commanded. She removed all of the clothing off of her body. An evil grin crept upon her face as she crawled into the bed with JC.

“I can’t believe you forgot your damn ID.” Justin sighed.
“I left it at JC’s when we went to the club last night.” Alexis giggled a little then looked out the window, “Park in the back, I can get in there quickly and go.”
“Alright.” Justin said. He pulled his Escalade, that he had been saving up for so long to get, and finally did into the back parking lot. He turned the radio up as Alexis got out and ran up to the stairs quickly.
Alexis opened the door without a knock or anything. The whole apartment was completely dark. All she could hear was faint whispers from JC’s bedroom. Alexis tilted her head a little in desperate need to hear what was going on. She tiptoed her way down the hall and reached JC’s bedroom. The door was open and she could hear another girl’s voice. She slammed on the light to see Arianna on top of JC topless.
“What the fuck?” Alexis said quietly.
“Alexis?” JC’s confusion then looked above at Arianna, “AJ!?”
“God AJ, you’re really low. Normally I’d beat your ass but you’re so shallow and low that you don’t even deserve to get your pretty little face punched in. And JC, you can just loose my number. I’ll have someone pick up my things.” Without an explanation from either of the two, Alexis grabbed her ID and left the apartment.
JC looked up at Arianna who was still straddled on top of him, “Get off of me.”
“JC.” Arianna didn’t know what to say.
“Get the fuck out of my house. Alexis is right, you ARE low.” JC threw Arianna’s jacket and top at her and slammed the door in her face.

Tears soaked Alexis’s eyes as she made her way back to the car where Justin was still waiting for her. She threw the door open and hopped in. She tried to keep her face away from Justin’s but it was too late, Justin saw her tears from the stairs.
“Alex, what’s wrong doll face?” Justin clasped his thumb and index finger around her chin and pulled it towards him. Her greenish gray eyes were now decorated with a red tint and clear tears.
“I just found Arianna and JC sleeping together.” Alexis said. Her throat cracked and her heart raced.
“What? That ass hole,” Justin paused, “That bitch!”
“Justin, this is all my fault.” Alexis shook her head and shot her eyes towards her hands that were folded around her ID.
“How is this your fault?” Justin asked.
“I came back into your life. Now you’re girlfriend is mad at you. JC is sleeping with her so he’s obviously mad at me. Your best friend, who is a bitch might I add, is mad at you. I should just leave The Beat and go back to Memphis.” Alexis cried.
“Alex,” Justin pulled her face towards his once again meeting her sad emerald eyes, “I couldn’t be happier that you’re here with me. I’m still in love with you Alex. I never stopped loving you.”
Although Alexis didn’t want to hear those words from Justin’s lips at the time they were her comfort. She pulled her face closer to his and let her full pink lips gently glide across his. She maneuvered her hands along his smooth skin as they shared their first intimate kiss since they were freshmen. Alexis pulled away and looked into his deep baby blues.
“Let’s go to my house.” Justin offered.
“Okay.”
