alexa's pov

i was curling the ends of my hair when lexi barges into my room, wearing a skin tight dress and asks, "do you have any hairspray? i think i left mine in england." i nod and point to my desk, where all my hair products were. she thanks me before grabbing it and running off back to the room she shared with leah. i looked at myself in the mirror and smiled, this is what a new beginning means.

i finish curling the last strands of hair and i move on to makeup checking the time, 7:15. i decided that today i wasn't going to do anything wild, even though we're going out. i applied foundation making sure that it wasn't cakey and put concealer under the eyes. afterwards i made the perfect wing on both of my eyes, which made me feel very satisfied. i finished the whole look by applying the perfect amount of mascara, making sure it wan't clumpy.

i went to my closet and picked out the perfect dress. looking it over, i realized laura had the same one but in a different colour and we should match. "LAURA!" i yell causing me to hear footsteps as she appeared at my door. "we should match! you have the gray one and i have the white one!" i say showing her the dress, which was pretty simple but it was still cute.

"oh my god that's so smart. i'll definitely wear it," she says rushing out the door again.

it was almost eight o clock and i was done getting ready. i scrolled through my phone passing the time as lexi and leah joined me, all we had to do was wait for laura. we looked so good, i'm surprised we got ready so quickly. laura stepped out of her room in the same dress as me but in a different color, which made us look great.

just as i looked at my phone for the time, i heard a knock at the door.. here we go. i opened the door and there revealed alex and david, who both cleaned up very well. "hey ale- woah" david said stepping back and alex looked at us all. i smirked.

"okay stop drooling lets go" i say letting the girls go out before i left last making sure everything was tidied up. david lead the group, leaving alex and i walking side by side.

"you look really good tonight" alex says looking at me with his ocean eyes.

"you don't look to bad yourself" i laugh, looking back at him. he smiles and we crawl into the very back of david's tesla, laura and lexi sitting in front of me, leah in the passengers seat. alex surprisingly didn't cause a fit that someone took his 'seat.' david pulls out of the parking garage and tells us everyone thats going to be there and where we're going, as leah expected, we're going to a club.

"we're not twenty one yet" i say looking in davids direction. i just turned twenty, lexi, leah and laura on the other hand are almost twenty one.

"it's fine, we know people there and anyways isn't the drinking age like sixteen in the UK?" he asks questionably.

leah responded for me and they all carried on a conversation. i stayed quiet and looked around, this car is hella big. while we were sitting in the car i looked outside and watched everyone on the streets. i felt someones hand on my thigh making me jump slightly but i realized it was only alex, i smiled and place my hand over his making a smile creep onto his face. what is he doing to me.

the rest of the car ride was fine, david and leah seemed to really hit it off. i couldn't help but see lexi look back at alex here and there, she better not be thinking about trying anything. the car halted to a stop as we pulled into a parking garage. everyone got out before alex and i but i didn't mind. we made our way down the street and i trailed behind them all, i wanted to take everything in. someone yelled something sexual towards me and i ignored it, but david noticed. "hey why don't you shut the fuck up!" he yells before putting his hand around my waist, making me walk with him. i smiled at the gesture and mouthed thank you.

i look ahead of us and i noticed lexi talking to alex, to be quite honest, i don't trust her. david followed my gaze and gave me a reassuring squeeze, which made me blush. alex turned into the club and so did lexi, david hurried behind them and i remembered that he was the known one here. the guard let us in quickly and david grabbed my hand leading me inside. there was something about him that made me feel safe. alex walked over to a group of people who i'm guessing were their friends, a tall boy with dark brown hair and tan skin came up to greet me, "hi i'm todd."

"i'm alexa" i say looking into his eyes.

"woah! your accent is hot" he slurred before walking over to everyone else. there were other people there and they were all friendly. sadly, they were all four drinks down so tomorrow they won't even remember my name. they were all ordering drinks but i decided not to so it wouldn't just be laura. during their fourth drink i noticed lexi purposely fall on alex, making him stumble back and laugh.

"hey! ALEX! kiss lexi for the vlog!" david yells over the music turning on his camera, no, no, say no. alex did the exact opposite, he grabbed the side of lexi's face and smashed his lips into hers while everyone cheered.

they started playing tongue tennis and i felt sick to my stomach. "i'm going to go to the bathroom" i say quickly to laura and she shows a worried expression on her face, i reassure her that i'm okay and make my way through the sweaty bodies. i couldn't help but feel a tear run down my hot cheek but i quickly wiped it away, i've only known alex for two days but it's like charlie and i all over again.

before i find the bathroom a guy stops me, "where are you going all alone hotstuff?"

"to the bathroom" i say trying to push away from him but he doesn't let me go through, this cannot be happening.

"cmon! lets have some fun!" he says grabbing my hand and i try to pull away but his grip is strong.

"hey asshole! she's not interested" someone yells grabbing my hand and forcefully pushing the guy back. he put his hands up in surrender and stepped away, probably to harass someone else. before i could say anything else the person dragged me through the crowd of people and up the stairs. i look up to see the persons face and there he was, david dobrik.
