2 Chapter 2

ALESSIA 

With all the support I received I also able to graduate college. With everything going so good, I can't help but feel like I'm missing something. Then to top it all off, the day of graduation, Jessica told me that she was moving back home. 

The thought of losing her too, she's basically been the one to hold me together through all this. Not only being my best friend but my sister, my rock. 

As tears filled my eyes, she rushed to me giving me a tight hug whispering in my ear that she wanted us to come with her. Of course I said yes.

There is no way I could do this without her besides the thought of her not being in Alena's life, I couldn't bare.

So back to the present. We are driving almost there. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Also happy to get out of this damn car, we have been driving for two days and my body is aching.

  We pull up to this gorgeous house. It has absolutely huge. Getting out of the car, I opened the back door to get Alena out of her carseat. We just stood their in shock. 

"Come on, let's go inside and I will introduce you to everyone." Jessica said.

As we opened the huge wooden door, there were several people scattered around in the kitchen and living room. As soon as the door slammed closed, everyone just turned towards us. There was a loud scream and this girl who looked just like Jessica came flying in the air and jumped into Jessica's arms, squeezing her tight.

"YOUR HOME!" the girl screamed. Then everyone stopped and looked at me. 

" Hey everyone, this is my best friend Alessia and her daughter Alena." Jessica said

"Alessia this is my older sister Emily."

"It's nice to meet you." I said.

Then we walked over to the others and she introduced me to them. "Alessia, this is Jake, my brother's best friend."

Jake was really tall, maybe 6'1, he had a nice body, very muscular and really cute. We shook hands greeting each other before moving on to the next. 

"This is Thomas who is also my brother's good friend." Jessica spoke.

He was equally tall, muscular and cute as Jake. He jumped forward and gave me a hug, which I returned with a giggle. 

Turning around, seeing two girls sitting in the couch. I didn't get that warm feeling when we walked up to them like I did with everyone else. 

"This is Rebecca but you can call her Becca and her friend Amy. Becca is my brother's girlfriend and from the looks of it, my brother is not here, probably working. We'll see him later." Jessica said. I nodded my head while Jessica was casually talking to them but I wasn't paying attention. 

"So everyone lives here except for Amy but she seems to be here all the time anyways." Emily said while giving her a slight glare. 

"Well let's start helping you unload the SUV while Jessica shows you to your rooms." Jake said.

"Thank you."

We walked up the stairs with her. She showed me her room. It was huge, large king bed in the center, silver walls and dark furniture. Then she showed me the room next to hers that would be given to Alena. Similar to Jessica's except it had a queen size bed and just kinda plain. That's a good thing though cause we can decorate however she wants. 

I laid Alena down on the bed since she was still sleeping and wrapped the pillows around her to make sure she doesn't fall and quietly walked out just in time to see Jake and Thomas coming down the hall with our boxes.

My room was on the other side of Alena's and it was almost identical to Jessica's. Large king bed, dark furniture, a flat screen on the wall. Off to the other side of the room, there were white leather couches and right by the balcony door, there was a small table. Seeing the closet, it was twice as big as my closet from our apartment and then I walked into the bathroom. OH MY GOD!!! I'm in heaven. I love this and I can already tell this is going to be my favorite spot in the house. It's huge. Everything is glass or white. You could fit a couple people in the huge tub and the shower, it had multiple shower heads coming from the top amd sides. There are 2 sinks and a vanity set up in the middle. 

After quickly setting things up we went back down stairs. Sitting at the kitchen island with Emily and Jessica. I couldn't believe how much alike they looked being a year apart from each other.

A while later Jake and Thomas joined us. I found out that Jake and Emily were a couple. They were so cute and looked happy together. 

We were all sitting around laughing and having fun. They were catching up with Jessica and getting to know me. Her being away at college, she didn't come home much. I believe some of that was my fault cause she was always there for me and Alena. 

As they were telling me stories of Jessica when she was little, I could tell I was really gonna like it here. My new beginning.

Knocking me out of my thoughts, I hear Alena calling my name. I looked up and she is standing at the top of the stairs. Jessica jumped up and took off running to her. Alena squealed and giggled when Jessica swooped her up in her arms. The whole way down, Jessica was giving her kisses on her cheeks.

We were all sitting around eating pizza laughing and having a good time. Minus Becca and Amy, they grabbed their food and went outside.

I'm now arguing that the New York has the best pizza ever. Jess agrees but nobody else. They have no idea what they are missing out on.

The front door opens and slams shut. Jess jumped up and ran. I turned around to see her fly into the arms of the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes on. His dark hair and grayish blue eyes. You could see he has a body of a God and covered in tattoos everywhere except his face. 

As soon as Jess let him go, Becca clung to him. She reached up slamming her lips to his. Her tongue in his mouth kissing him like her life depended on it. Finally he pulled back with a smirk on his face whole walking towards the kitchen. 

The moment Jaxson looked at me, he froze. He said something but disguised it by coughing.
