My haunting past

Chapter 27-New Year's Eve

"I got it" he nodded. I left him to it and put away some of his toys. He put on his clothes properly and I walked him downstairs with me. Ryan was bringing his kids because his sons and Anthony are similar in age. We are having two babysitters come because everyone is bringing their kids and we still want to relax and have a fun night.

The party was starting in 20 minutes and I did last minute checks and made sure everything was ready. When the party started, people came through and the party was fun so far. Stefan left out a little but everyone knew why because people still haven't accepted his apology. The night was actually amazing and I had an amazing time with everyone. It felt nice not having any responsibilities and having fun with my family and friends.

Midnight was approaching, we had 5 minutes left and everyone started crowding around the tv where we were watching the ball drop. I was at the bar, making myself another drink when my name was being called

"Lexie" Jenna yelled for my name

"What" I walked towards her to see she was staring at the tv

"Isn't that Elijah?" She pointed to the tv to see that Elijah is at time square and not alone.

"Lucas" I called out for him to walk over to us. "Is that Spencer with Elijah at time square" I pointed to the both of them looking shocked

"What, they didn't say they were going to time square, they were suppose to go to their friends house" He replied

"Ooo they're in trouble" Jenna said in a mocking tone.

"Wait till your kids grow up" I scoffed shaking my head.

"At least they aren't drinking" Lucas replied. I left out a sigh knowing he's right but time square right now can be dangerous.

"Hey, we have one minute" James announced as we focused back on the tv. We watched the countdown happen, Stefan slipping next to me, watching the tv as well

"5"

"4"

"3"

"2"

"1"

"Happy New Year" Everyone cheered.

Stefan grabbed my hand and shifted me so I looked at him.

"I am going to kiss you, and you're going to let me, please" He spoke as I look at his eyes. He wasn't too loud but not quiet either. I nodded my head as he slowly connected our lips together. I allowed my lips to follow his moves and let him take the lead.

"Happy new year Lexie" He smiled

"Happy new year Stefan" I replied as I let go of him and went around to hug other people. People stayed for a while past midnight and the party started to die down around 2am. Once everyone left, I headed to my room and took my makeup off and changed into pajamas.

The next morning, the twins came home and I still need to talk to Elijah because he lied to me yesterday.

"I'm home" Elijah said as I heard the front door open and close.

"Meet me in my office" I replied calling him into the office. He walked in and I pointed to the chair in front of my desk

"What's up?" He was confused not knowing why he was in here.

"How was your night?" I asked

"Good, spencer and I went to Jack's house and hung out there. It was a chill night" He lied through his teeth acting like he wasn't partying at time square.

"Wow, was jack's house in the middle of time square?" I asked raising my eyebrows. He went into shock knowing he was busted.

"How did you know?" he asked in shock

"You were on tv, next time make sure you don't wave at the camera" I replied having a tight lip smile

"Sorry, I just know you would have said no because it wasn't safe-

"Because it isn't safe" I cut him off

"I am fine though" He contradicted

"But you might have gotten hurt" I said

"I didn't though" He replied

"But you could have, you have to be careful and you lying to me isn't helpful" I said

"Sorry I lied, I won't do it again" He sighed

"You won't because your grounded for 2 weeks for lying to me and Spencer is getting the same amount so don't bother saying he is getting it lighter" I replied

"Fine" he sighed and got up from the chair and started walking upstairs. I heard the door open and I saw on the cameras it was Ella so I called her into my office.

"Yes" she replied

"How was your night?" I asked

"It was fine, we watched movies, hung out then watched the ball drop" She replied

"Did you see your brother on tv?" I asked

"Yes, he was dumb to wave at the camera. I told him not to when I warned him" She replied

"You knew he was going?" I exclaimed in shock

"No" she said cautiously knowing she got caught as well.

"Come on Ella, you are suppose to tell me this" I replied getting annoyed with all the secrets

"He's my twin" She said

"And I am your mom" I exclaimed

"Well, he's my twin and right now he beats you" She said

"Whatever, but I am happy you had a good night" I replied

"Yeah" She said and left the room to go in her room. I did some work and drank a lot of water because I did drink more than normal yesterday.

The doorbell rang and I got up from my chair. I walked towards the door and open it to reveal a teenage girl.

"Hello?" I question

"Are you Alexis Whitmore?" She questioned. I have no idea who this girl is and where she came from. She doesn't look familiar so I can't pinpoint where she is from

"Yes, who are you?" I asked

"I'm Gabrielle Andrea Valentino, Aidan Valentino's daughter" she stated
