-----Lexi POV-----

I walked back to my house and when I opened the door I saw Xena sitting on a chair,with a cup, waving at me.I shut the door dropped my bags and dragged my feet walking towards Xena and looking down.I didn't want her to see all the bruises and cuts I hade so I put a book in front of my face as if I was reading it.She got up and gave me a hug.
"I'm sorry for everything that happened to you...I think it would have been best if we hade never met or even became friends."Xena said sitting back down"You can put the book down.I know what happened to you."
I put the book down.I felt a tear come down my face.And then another one.The kept coming down until the point where Xena handed me a napkin.
"Come with me!"Xena said heading towards the hall way.She took me to the bathroom and gave me some bandages.
"Tha-".I was interrupted by Xena turning around and hitting my mirror making it break.
"My.....My fault!All m-my fault!"she whisper.She slowly began to laugh and cry as the blood on her hand fell into the sink"Your not safe because of me!"
"Xena stop.Its not you fault that I wanted to help you instead of be with Alice,It's not your fault she hates me but loves you."I said picking up the glass shards.I went in my cabinet and grabbed out a cloth and a glove, I put the glove on and took Xena's hand.I ran her hand under some water and put some anti biotech on it witch made her scream a little.I rapped the cloth around her hand and kissed it.
"Was the kiss really necessary ?"She asked
"Yes!"I giggled.After that there was knock on my door and I went and got it.It was Tsunami with a strange boy I haven't seen before.He had dirty blonde hair and a silver shirt with black pants.
"Hey I thought I would stop by and hang...oh and by the way this is my boyfriend ,Blake, he is from a different high school and is a year up.He's still cute~"Tsunami said hugging Blake.Blake kissed her on the head and waved at me,I smiled and waved back.

-----Xena POV-----

I hear Tsunami's voice.I didn't want to see her right know.I quickly ran to my room and closed the door lightly and quietly.I leaned against the door and slid down.I began to cry looking at my hand rapped in cloth
"I wish you were hear Aaron...you would know what to do..."I whispered
"Who is-"
"Shut up Lexi!!!"I heard voices out side my door.
"I know your there!"I said whipping my tears.I got up and opened the door,they all got up and all, there faces turned bright red.Except for Lexi she actually looked kinda pissed.
"Who is Aaron?!"Lexi said crossing her arms.
"He's my-"
"Boyfriend?Soul mate?Hmph!"she said flipping her hair.I pushed every one out of the way and kissed Lexi on the cheek
"He is the non of those things, but he is my cousin I haven't seen for psh years."I said holding her hands.I heard a squeal  from behind me and something falling.Lexi face was even redder then a tomato.Then she started to laugh and point at something behind be.I looked behind and saw Tsunami in Blake's,arms fainted.I let go of Lexi's hand and helped Blake.If your wondering how I know his name I heard her mention him.When I finished I turned around and Lexi just smiled and walked away as if nothing happend .Blake was carrying Tsunami in his arms.
"I'll take her back home."he said leaving.Tsunami woke up and waved good bye.I looked at my phone and it was only six twenty two.I sighed and went to the kitchen to get my left over drink that Aaron had bought me.When I got there I noticed it was gone.I looked around and saw that Lexi was drinking it.
"Thank!"Lexi said taking a sip.I looked at her with saddens and happiness that she had stole my drink.We both smiled and I decided I would go for a walk.I went in my room changed and put my hair in a ponytail.I left and while walking I was thinking about what I hade done.I started to wonder why I hade kissed Lexi.I also wondered why Tsunami had come to her house with that boy,Blake, and what would happen if I went back to school as Xena instead of Ashely.While walking I saw Aaron and I decided to ask him where he was staying.
"Well i thought that Xena would be here so I could crash at her place but only girl I can find is Ashely."he said.I went through my bag and grabbed my hoodie.I throw it at him.
"Well Xena is back and is going to stay!"I said.He looked at me and smiled.
"I'm glad, because know I don't have to stay in a hotel!"he said putting the hoodie one my head.I put my hands through the sleeves.Sipped my jacket and I felt good.I felt...alive.As if I didn't have to lie anymore about the real me.I can be a shadow and be happy.I knew what I had to do but the real question was do I really have the courage to?
