Alexandra POV(LEXY)

HI!

I'm Alexandra or Lexy for friends, I'm 19 years old, I'm tall with black hair and blue eyes and let's say not to thin but not fat... Definitely not fat but STUPID AS FUCK at my choice of men.

Little by little I will tell you my story.... About Him and how I met the Love of my Life.


Him... His name is John and I met him at my 18 birthday and he wasn't the men I thought he is..

Hmmmm... John....

Well let's remember that time shall we...

My 18 birthday

All my friends were with me. Cristina - my best friend and her boyfriend Steve, her sister Ana and my ex boyfriend Michael who now is with Ana who by the way he proposed to her, and of course my brother Cage-he is older than me by nine years, so I can say he is my rock, always has been and always will be. Since our parents died 3 years ago in a car accident, he was all I had,took care of me, listen to me. So yeah my brother and I are pretty close.

We all gathered at a pub place were we can drink and eat, because in my logic, alcohol after the food is better.

We all joke and laugh and do stupid things like shots, smoke-oooo yeahhhh I'm a smoker-in all this crazy croud of ours I look at my best friend and her sister, they look happy, they have two great guys by their side, and I just wander why I can't have that.

My brother sees me that I'm lost in thoughts "Hey sis.... You ok?" Cage asked

"Yeah...."

Cage: " OK.... I know you... So tell me what's bothering you?"

I look at him with a little smile on my face.

"You know me well huh?"

Cage:"Yeah, I do... So tell me... What's wrong?

You should celebrate. You don't turn 18 every day."

"Heyyyy guys.... Look who just walked in." Cristina says and my attention goes to the door.

And then I see him. Tall, muscular with a great tattoo on his right hand, brown hair and the most blue eyes I ever seen.

Ooooo Godddd....

The things I'm thinking right know.

He sees me and I try to not look at him... I find very interesting my glass of water.

"O my God... He is coming this way" Cristina says

And I try to get close to my brother.. Why the hell I'm so panicked? I'm the bold one in our group of girls, I refused many dates, many guys, so why the HELL I feel this way?

"Hello everyone" he says

"Hi" Cristina and Ana said

He: "I'm John"

"I'm Cristina, he is my boyfriend Steve, my sister Ana and her fiancé Michael" Cristina made introduction

John:"Nice to meet you all!

But I wonder who is this beautiful brunette?"

I looked at him and it was like the cat eat my tongue, like all my words died in my throat.

What the hell is wrong with me...?

Were is my boldness when I need it. Come on Lexy. Talk.

" HI, I'm Alexandra and this is my boyfriend Cage"

I internally slap myself, Cage is looking at me with a coky smile on his face... He knows what I'm doing.

"Nice to meet you" Cage says shaking hands with John

I see John with a playful light in his eyes and then he surprised me. He came closer to me....

John: "He's not your boyfriend beautiful. He's a friend, a cousin or your brother... But your boyfriend is Not."

"Who says he's not?" I ask

John :"When he looks at you, he doesn't look like a man who wants to devour you, its more like he wants to protect you."

He left me speechless.

Get your courage on the line Lexy.

"Yes, you're right. You got two things right. He is my brother and he is also my protector."

"You're damn right Sis" Cage says with pride in his voice.

John: "Nice to meet you all and have a good evening, especially you my beautiful Alexandra."

"I'm not yours" I tell him with angry in my voice.

I hate when men says that I am their's... Like I'm an object. Like they own me.

John stops on his steps and eventually turns.

John:"Ohh Baby... You are mine. How about I call my friend and join you all in this gathering you have?"

His eyes are like hypnosis and a hear myself saying.

"Yeah sure... The more the better."

John stared at me for a moment and then calls his friend to come join us. I was speechless when I saw a beautiful blonde with the face and body like she is a supermodel coming at our table.

John introduced us to his friend and I found that her name is Aria and her and John are friends since childhood.

"Nice to meet you Aria."

"Nice to meet you too Lexy" Aria says

"Alexandra, please.... Only friends call me Lexy and I'm not yet your friend"

Great Lexy, now you have courage and boldness

I look at my brother and he looks at me like I have two heads.

I think he has a crush on Aria.

I shrugged and I gave him a look like I was saying 'What? It's true.'

"Well... We have a bold one here" Aria looks at me with a playful smile

"OK Alexandra.... But we will be friends."

We all placed another order of drinks and 3 large pizza... Like I said before.... food first and after alcohol.

18 years old.... And I guess most of you wonder how can I drink at this age... Well I'm Romanian and in Romania kids that reach 18 years old can drink. I finished high school and for the moment I don't have plans for college even though my brother doesn't agree with me.

So like I was saying....

John leans at me and looks me directly in my eyes and I'm just mesmerized by his eyes....

John: "Alexandra.... Tell me.... Why are you single and what are we celebrating?"

"Who says I'm single?"

John:"I just assumed.... If I had a girlfriend like you I wouldn't have let you go out by yourself"

"I'm not by myself. I'm with my brother and my friends so...."

John: "I would like you to go on a date with me"

I'm shocked. OK, I'm not ugly, I have a athletic body, minimal makeup... I'm not on full on makeup... I like natural... But why the hell did he want to date me?

John:"By your look you seem surprised,and I don't understand why. You are a beautiful girl, every men should be at your feet."

"I am surprised because come on... Look at you and look at me. You probably date girls that look like supermodels... Not who look like me... I'm not your type." I laugh a little, like a mock laugh

John:"You don't know me. You don't know my type"

I look at him and I swear I feel like I'm under a spell.

I find my courage and I ask him.

"OK... So what is your type of girl?"

John :"YOU"
