#8 :: Not Everything Is Shared

39) ALEXANDRA

Ryan shook my hand first followed by Carla.

"Thank you so much Lex. This means the world to me." Ryan said.

I smiled. I noticed Carla not looking too pleased. But that was her business. I was tired of being the bad irrational person when all I had ever done was be a good person.

Leaving Ryan and Carla I felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I finally got it all off my chest and now I could go and make things right with Calum. I could not wait for the weekend to come.

***

The weekend was finally here and it was time for me to get Jeremih. I was excited as I really missed him and I know Zack would be so happy as I never told him. I was going to take the boys out to an indoor - child friendly version to Go Ape.

When I arrived to Calum's Zack had already fell asleep. I laughed; as soon as Zack gets into my car he falls asleep. No matter what time of day it is. I didn't mind because it meant he didn't know where we was. I would wake him once Jeremih got in the car.

I messaged Calum letting him know that I was outside. When he came out Jeremih ran to the car.

"ALEXXXXX!!"he screamed.

I laughed as he ran into me giving me the biggest hug!

"Hello Jerry! You missed me?" I said.

"Yeah! When can I come back and live with you and Zack?"

"I'm working on it." I whispered then told him to ssshhh as if it was a secret.

"Where's Zack?"

"In the car sleeping. Wake him up." I said as I opened the car door for him to get in.

"Been a while since I've seen him so excited." Calum said to me.

"What can I say? I have that effect on people." I said with a smile.

"So... how've you been?"

"I been coping. You?"

"Yeah. Can't complain."

"Good. Look I should have Jerry back by 8 the latest. Is that okay?"

"Yeah that's cool."

"Cool. See ya later." I said feeling somewhat defeated at the fact he wasn't coming.

When I got in the car Zack and Jerry was talking and laughing. If there was anything that would cheer me up over the fact Calum wasn't coming it would be these two and their cute laugh.

Just as I was about to drive off Calum stopped the car.

"Did you forget something?" I asked him.

"No. You did." He said.

"Me?"

"Yup."
