Chapter Six (Alexis)

Knock Knock

We both turned towards the door as Naomi's mom aka my new mom walked in "hi, are you girls alright now" she asked while walking in

I nodded my head "yeah we're good" 

She sighed a breath of relief and handed me a cup "I brought you something to help calm your nerves"

"oh thanks I can definitely use this right now" I put the cup to my lips, took a sip and instantly spit it out "yuck what is this"

Naomis mom looked at me as if I was insane "its hot chocolate with peppermint, its always been your favorite"

I felt Naomi nudge my arm "get it together" she whispered so I only could hear "shes just messing around mo- I mean Mrs. Brown, she was just telling me how much she loves hot peppermint coco" 

I glanced over at Naomi "uh what" she looked at me and I nodded my head "yeah I was just messing around Mi- um mom, I love this stuff" I lifted the cup back to my lips and took the smallest sip possible "yum" 

she smiled at me "well it was nice meeting you Alexis, but its time for us to head home" 

"already" I said 

"yeah your dad is with the doctor right now signing your discharge papers and Alexis I think your guardians are also signing your papers" 

Naomi nodded her head "well I better get changed"

I looked down at the hospital gown I was wearing "oh yeah I need to change to"

Naomis mom took off the backpack she was wearing and handed it to me "here you go sweetie"

I took the bag from her "thanks" I said smiling but my smile quickly faded away when I saw the clothes she had packed for me, there was a pair of dingy sweatpants, a huge shirt and some dirty shoes "uh no this isn't going to work" I said while stuffing the clothes back into the bag

"its what you usually wear around the house and plus I figured you would want to wear something comfortable" Naomis mom said 

"yeah comfortable but chic and stylish not homeless" 

I felt Naomi grab my arm and oush me towards the bathroom "you're so funny Naomi, but I have extra clothes in the bathroom you can wear" 

I opened my mouth to speak but she glared at me and mouth "go" 

"Naomi can change in her hospital room, you girls don't have to share the bathroom" Naomis mom said as she watched us go in the bathroom 

"oh no its fine" Naomi said and quicklt closed and locked the door 

When the door was closed she pushed me a little "really" she said while crossing her arms 

"what" I said while grabbed the pink gym bag on the sink yes finally something that actually belongs to me 

"calling my clothes homeless and spitting out the coco like it was poison"

"hey not my fault you should have warned me about your awful wardrobe and disgusting taste" I pulled on a pair of black tights "besides what highschooler still drinks coco especially in the fall"

Naomi rolled her eyes "I do and I also like to wear comfortable clothes when I'm at home chilling" she grabbed the bookbag I had thrown on the floor and started to pull the sweatpants on

"oh no no no" you are not going to wear those things while you're in my body" 

"well either I wear them or you do sweetheart" 

I looked at her smug smile "fine, I rather I look a mess in your body than you look a mess in mine" I pulled the tights off and threw them at her, she tossed me the sweatpants 

"okay so whats the plan when we go to each others homes" she asked while sliding on one of my Chanel shirts 

"um no one should mess with you tonight just go to my room and close the door the help will know that means to leave me alone" ew I can't wait to get back to my body I thought to myself as I pulled on the dirty sneakers 

"okay cool, well my family is a little different we eat dinner together every night, thats usually when my parents ask about school and grades" 

"ugh people still do that" I said making a face

"yeah, most families do, anyway just say school is fine and your grades are great. Try to avoid any topics you don't know about, which is basically everything... now that I think about it maybe just say you're sick and asked to be sent to your room early" 

"You have to ask to go to your room, what are you five"

"no I have discipline, listen in my household my parents are really strict but they dont play either so just watch your mouth okay"

I rolled my eyes "yeah whatever, but for school tomorrow you pick up Taylor then Shelly"

"can't I skip all that and just pick you up so we can resolve this mess quicker"

"no way, you have to stick to the same routine or people will get suspicious, I will text you their addresses and speakin of phones where's mine"

"in your bag, but shouldn't we switch phones" 

"no, no one should notice the phone thing if we hide them" I grabbed my phone from my bag "here put in your number"

Naomi took the phone then after a few seconds handed it back "there I'll call you once I make it to your house"

'sounds good"

Knock Knock

"Are you girls finished up in there"

I sighed "okay you ready for this"

Naomi laughed "do I really have a choice"
