Chapter 2- One night out

Alexa POV:

Its my big day , graduation day and I'm so excited to see my family today I haven't seen my brother since New Years and I haven't seen Anna, mom, and dad since winter break back in February.

so you can only imagine how excited I was to be seeing everyone. I was expecting Robbie earlier than everyone else he should be here any minute so now I'm pacing back and forth in my room trying on different outfits like the new kid in school I've always looked up to my big brother hard working and handsome if I say so myself . I yelled for Cassie to come and when she peeked her head in and saw my mind state she jumped right into defensive mode asking if everything was okay and if I needed a drink knowing I don't drink I gave a little laugh and said yeah whiskey on the rocks please and we both laughed at our inside joke.

FLASHBACK 2 years ago:

Lexie you home Cassie called out as her and Josh enter the house I was busy doing research for a case I'm working on for my externship in her I yell from the den. She enters with Josh on one arm and a bag in the other and said ok so Josh and I are inviting over his roommate and we're gonna hang out and get WAISTED she yelled all I could do was shake my head at her spirit it's never dull.

an hour later we were in the kitchen sitting around the table laughing joking and they were drinking when it was my turn to drink I tried playing it cool and said no thanks I only take whiskey on the rocks.

..................End of flashback..................

I stopped pacing faced her and said Robbie will be here any minute to take me to brunch and I have nothing to wear can I borrow one of your dresses when I mentioned my brother I could've sworn I saw her blush a dark shade of red and say Robbie is coming here today with big eyes. I've always thought that she had a crush on my brother but I never really paid much attention to it until now when the mer mention of my brothers name has her stuttering and blushing like a 8th grader with a crush. I looked at her and shook my head and left for her closet with Cass close behind grabbed a dress and went to get ready.

just as I finished getting dressed the doorbell rand and I hear Cassie yelling she'll get it I do a once over in the floor length mirror and make my way out of the room as soon as I see him I can't help but squeal and run into my brothers arms and hug him so tight. He rubs my hair like he's always done since I was baby and said how proud he is of me before we let go of each other. I look at Cass who is staring at Robbie and I clear my throat she jumps a little out of what I can only imagine is her thoughts and go to say goodbye when Robbie asks her if she would like to join us his treat she immediately said yes..... a little to fast if you asked me.

we arrive at a little mom and pop diner called Aunty's and park I look at Robbie wondering how he knew we loved to eat here I've never told him about this diner before all he does is smile and say lucky guess let's go and he's out the car quickly.

we were seated right away and the waiter took our drink order and placed our menus down in the table and left to get our drinks once the waitress leaves Cassie starts asking Robbie a bunch of questions like they know each other outside of me introducing them which has my head spinning at the thought when the waitress returns with our drinks we order our food and finish a wonderful conversation when I get the sudden feeling that someone is watching me so I stop talking and look around when I notice Henry the manager of the diner watching me like always creep I mumble under my breath but both Cass and Robbie heard me. And gave me an arched brow as if I have grown two heads.

after brunch it was time to get ready to pick up the rest of my family so we dropped off Cass and headed to the airport. The ride to the airport was awkwardly quiet but to break the silence I ask the first question that comes to mind. So Robbie is there something going on with you and Cass I should know about? And he nearly chocks off his saliva in the process and looks at me for a brief second and asks kitty kat what makes you say that with raised eyebrows. I look at him and say I don't know you guys seemed to be pretty chatty at brunch today that's all. He usures me that nothing is going on as we pull into the airport just as Ana, mom,and dad are leaving baggage claim.

When they spot us it's an emotional reunion to say the least.

Back at home after everyone went to their hotels I began getting ready with the help of Cass of course. I wore a body con all black dress that stopped just above my knees and had my back out with 6 inch stilettos and light make up as always. After doing a once over in the mirror with a nod of self approval I'm out the door with my cap and gown in hand and Cassie by my side we look at each other with a knowing look and nod and head to graduation.

once the valedictorian finishes her speech everybody cheers caps are thrown in the air and I am officially a practicing lawyer. After graduation we say our goodbyes to everyone and me and Cassie head to club KARMA!
