CHAPTER25

"It's the weekend!!!!!!!" I mentally scream. Normally I would be sleeping my life out but the days finally here!! It's the first park to ever open in the whole of Georgetown and I have been waiting for this day forever. So what? Call me a child but it's something I've always wanted to do with Leon, not that he was interested or anything but I would have enjoyed his company. "Wake up Lexis. Wake the heck up" I shouted sending a pillow to his face "The hell?" "We have to be at the opening of the park in what? less than four hours. Four freaking hours man" I exclaimed. Ugh Lexis is not the easiest to wake up trust me "I'll have to start locking my door from annoying peasants like you" he groaned sitting up "Till then you have got to get up and get ready" "For what? A park opening that's in four hours?. He'll no I'm going to bed" he turned back to lie down. Smirking mischievously to myself, I left quietly to my room to get my iPhone then walked back to his room and plugged my phone to his headphones placing it by his ear with Carter's voice ringing through it. "Ah! Shit! Please I'm sorry" he shot up, throwing the headphones from his ear I laughed enjoying his pleas because I know he never says sorry "Just get out of my room" he muttered, his cold hard voice piercing through the room "Ha-ha I can't wait to tell Carter this" I laughed walking away, trying not to take offense ....... "What is wrong with you people?. Show some enthusiasm" Ryan cheered to our friends. We were currently in my friend's apartment because Carter refused to wake up so I dragged Lexis, Aiden, and Ryan along because I knew how much Aiden and Lexis wanted to escape. "I just lost a whole day of sleep for this" Lexis grumbled "Shut up" Ryan and I said together "I need to sleep" Melia grumbled and I gave her a look "Come on you guys I never go out" I start" and this is like what? The first time I'm actually willing to go out and you guys want to blow me off. And guess what every ride is free" I huffed with slight offense "It's not really my fault you don't go out" Lexis cajoled What is it with these people? "Fine, don't follow me I don't care anymore" I nodded with a little bit of sadness lacing around "I'll come along" Aiden broke the silence "Sure?" I smiled smugly "Yeah we'll come also" Melia announced pointing to Brooke and Carter "We are" "We are?" Brooke and Carter said simultaneously and Brooke immediately hit him on his chest "yes we are" he said quietly "Well I'm not coming" Lexis shrugged "Nu-uh yes you are" Ryan helped me "Uh, why?" "Oh you don't want to know" Ryan smirked "God why do I associate with these people" he groaned "I'm guessing that's a yes" I stated not giving him time to reply me but he didn't refuse ......... "Oh my geez!!. They have the drop tower ride. I want to go" Melia screamed "Nah I want to go on the pendulum ride. It looks so cool" Carter gaped "Now looks who's excited" I rolled my eyes "Okay so since we all want to go on separate rides, pick a partner, do what you got to do and let's meet at here in two hours" I instructed "Yes mam. But um we're seven" Aiden sighted "No that's fine Brooke and I will stay together and Ryan Aiden and Carter can be together. Is that fair enough" Melia asked "Uh I don't want to stay with her" lexis looked my way "Dear friend, the feelings very mutual" I retorted "Uh well that's not our problem" Carter shrugged and they all ran away. Literally I'm going to get them back for this trust me "Well it's just me and you buddy" I started walking "I don't wish to be here" Lexis followed suit beside me but once again I ignored his unwillingness "I'm so checking out this ride" I gasped. It was the longest ride in the park and probably the most dangerous one. It's not like I'm one for rides like this but who cares? It won't hurt to try "Go ahead just get it that I won't ever follow you" his voice hard but there was something that I just couldn't place my hands-on "Come on, can't we just go one day with being orderly with each other" I spat. I was honestly getting tired of his bull "Oh, and who's to blame?" He chuckled without humor "You are going and that's final" I finalized dragging him to the line. Damn he's one strong man "I'm not doing this" he kept on muttering "Ohemgess" a high pitched voice screamed from our back cutting off our conversation as we turned our attention to the girl "You're Alexander Wayne!!!. My dad works for Wayne enterprises and this is so amazeballs" she rambled and I rolled my eyes as she kept on ogling him "He isn't that much of a celebrity" I stated "Can I get a picture with you. My pop would be so thrilled" she gushed ignoring me completely Why exactly would her dad care about that I mentally asked myself "Oh he's gay" she answered making me realize that I said it out loud "Oh" I coughed awkwardly "Yeah I'll take you up on that picture" Lexis finally said with amusement in his words "Great. Hey, take this picture would you?" She asked rather rudely tossing me her phone, her eyes not leaving Lexis. "Uh excuse you" I scoffed "I'm the wife to be and I would not help you with your picture" I frowned. God I sounded bossy "Oh, you're her. Oh I'm so sorry" she flustered as she walked off "Girls are so annoying" I muttered trying to explain what I did "Don't worry princess, I happen to love it when you're bossy. It's cute" he whispered, his skin touching my ear causing me to shiver at the sudden touch and for a minute there, I felt different I don't exactly know what it was "Ahem" I shook my head slightly trying to get the feeling out "Are you sure you're tall enough for this ride?" Lexis laughed, acting innocent like nothing happened But nothing happened. Right? "Excuse me, I'm a perfect 5"7 so yes I am tall enough" I scoffed "Sure princess, you sure seem like a 5"2 to me" "That's really not my problem" I walked on to the person in front of the line "Good day. Seats for two?" The very cute guy at the stand asked "Yep" "Okay then" he opened the door to the seats, letting us in before he turned and smiled "Enjoy the ride" he winked at me and blushed "Such a cutie" I smiled Then I noticed Lexis wasn't answering me "Lexis?" "Hmpf?" He tightened his arm around his chest as we kept going higher "What's the matter?" I asked confused "Nothing" his normal cold and hard voice sounding kind of shaky And that's exactly when it hit me "Oh. My. Shit!!. Alexander Wayne, you are scared of heights!!!" I exclaimed and I'm pretty sure more than half of the civilians in the park must have heard me "You could always get a speaker and a microphone" he mumbled, shaking slightly "Oh no I'm so sorry, I didn't know that. I shouldn't have let you come on. You should have at least told me" I smacked him. "You think it's easy?" "Fine I know, okay if it makes you feel better you can hold my hands throughout and shut your eyes you won't feel a thing" I suggested "No way in hell am I touching you" he continued shaking "Fine suit yourself" I moved away from him as the control man counted to three to start moving "One, two, thr-" Before I knew it, Lexis wrapped his hands and around mine, squeezing them tightly as I screamed throughout the ride mostly due to excitement but Lexis just stayed still and rigid so I didn't bother him After the ride came to a halt, he immediately redrew his hands and I felt warmth leaving my skin but I ignored it "The. Best. Ride" I exclaimed more to myself "Never speak of this" Lexis interrupted, his cold voice feeling the air as he walked ahead This is a tough nut. "Want to get some cotton candy?" I smiled. Even if it means ditching an entire day if free rides for my partner, I don't mind. That's just me. "No, go find another ride" he refused "This is just the opening I don't mind. I can come another day" I shrugged "Your loss" So annoying. ....... "So, any girlfriend in Europe?" I ask as I chewed on my cotton candy "Not a commitment type of guy" was his answer "Okay Sooo, that girl in the picture, she's pretty huh?" I asked trying to get a conversation out of him. I know its prying but what choice do I have "I told you to never speak of her" my stopped dead in his tracks, speaking lowly "Why?" I pried "Just stop it dammit" he shouted with so much anger so I just stayed quiet "What is it with you huh? Why do you want to know so much about me? Why are you so persistent Lorraine? Why?  Is it because your life is so perfect that you want to find joy in mine? Why do you want to care? Why are you so much like her?" He spat. I wanted to yell at him, to smack some sense it into him, to give him a dose of my anger but I calmed myself down and let out a got angry shaky breath "You've built your wall so high that no one can climb over. No one but trust me, I'm going to climb through it and break it. I promise" I looked at him square in the eye. "That wall that I built, no one and I mean no one would ever get through it. So move on with your little perfect life and leave me the fuck alone" his voice boomed hard as his eyes bored into mine with hatred all over it. "You have so little faith in me" I pressed, smirking before turning to walk away. I really don't know what made me say that. "Lorraine?" A very timid voice I didn't expect to hear at all asked quietly causing me to drop my candy. "Connie" I breathed
