Taking one of my usaul morning runs zipping across the street. The wind blowing in my face I feel alive sort of, I like the adrenaline in my veins and the uncertainty that lies within me tonight I make my debut to the world not as Alexa. I feel anxious how would the public react about me? Everyone is gonna see ma as an Alessia eden wannabe like am trying to replace her or something while all I want to do is to continue my legacy.  

Rodewave song's blaring in to my ears.  My feet feels like gum at the this but I keep pushing.  All my life I have never backed down from anything and am not backing down now.

My phone rings and am surprised as i pick up Maddie is crying at the of the line

" Alexa he came here to the house .... He he.....

Maddie calm the fuck down I can barely understand you.

Vince was here he said he would hurt my daughter he...  please just come I beg you .... Am losing my mind!

Maddie chill am coming just hang in there

Being on the phone with Maddie and trying to run across the street.  I didn't expect for an incoming car coming at me nearly 160 miles  an hour. I can see my very life flash before my own eyes and in a nick of time someone pushes me roughly across the street as the car swerves a little before driving off..

Landing on the hard ground my forehead connecting with the rough ground. My hands shoulder and my entire body aches. I can the blood trickling across my face, my heart beat thunderously in my chest I nearly died again.

People are already gathered talking to me but it seems like am in a sort of trance

Am suddenly pulled from my trance when an outstretched hand reaches out to me and fuck me creed stands there bathed in sunlight a bruise forming on his jaw.

"Are you okay?  This crazy piece of shit! some narcos driving like the own the streets

Taking his hand as he pulls me up I stand there like a fish out of water creed just saved my life if it wasn't for him I would be dead right now. Am gawking at him replaying the last few seconds a few minutes late I would be dead

Why did you do it? I blurt out

He scoffs at me pressing his temple dusting off a dust on his Tom ford shirt, I  could swear it was the one I got for him last fall.

"A simple thank you would be nice I just saved your life

If that car had hit me a lot of your problems would have been over

Look my priority right now is that you don't bleed to death. Your head could be cracked open and see your bleeding. It's best we get to hospital and check ourselves out

I think am good you don't need to worry about me I say but I guess I spoke too soon as I feel the usual dizziness and suddenly everywhere goes pitch black

Creed pov

I didn't expect Alexa to pass out in my hands and getting her to the hospital was no easy feat too.  Good thing is no one recognized me until we got to the hospital. 

Alexa stirs in her sleep a bit, mumbling a few incoherent words.  I sit there watching her the sun urban nobody who has vowed to be a thorn. Chase must hates me to the very core to use her to get to all of us. She reminds me of Alessia but looks nothing like her the fact she reminds me of Alessia makes me hate her the more. Alessia's memory torments me greatly 

She stirs again and this time her eyelids flutter open the way she looks at me

"Where am I she asks breathlessly

Hospital......  I brought you here you passed out

Shutting her eyes for a brief minute she winces in pain a bit

"I nearly got run over by a car

Yes you did thank Goodness you weren't we don't need another funeral.

"Why would you risk your life to save me

I didn't risk my life I just pushed you across the street

"You could have been hit too she pines

Well I wasn't  am perfectly fine

Which is actually a lie my shoulder seems to have been dislocated but am not telling the doctors that so that they can wrap me up a few meds and am gonna be fine I fucking hate hospitals

Either way seeing as your awake and I have called chase he should be here in a few minutes.. I should get going I have other things to do

"I don't get it she begins again........

Turning to face her her jaded eyes meet mine and the harsh words am about to spit out get lodged in my throat. Biting down on my lower lips she looks at me this certain look

Look let's not make this a thing or make a big fuss about it.. Thank goodness I was there in a nick of time ..... I

And right about then freakin chase decides to barge right in. The way he rushes  right in I have never seen chase Lancaster so concerned about anyone else the only person he gave two shits about was long dead

Alexa!!! Goodness what the fuck happened how did it happened? Are you okay? What hurts?

"Chase chill am fine look at me am all good

Chase Leans in and I could swear I see tears in his eyes.  He cradles her   head softly

The way she looks at him, something is definitely not checking out with this two

Well seems like your here  I can take my leave now

"You have a lot of explanations to render creed,you so happened to be around the corner as Alexa nearly got killed

What are you insinuating? I saved her life

Chase steps forward towards me squaring just shoulders as we both hold each other's gaze

I don't believe a word you say creed this has ivy young and you written all over it

Your trying to say am capable of murder?

Your capable of a lot of things creed,  you and ivy can stoop to any level to achieve anything you want and am not surprised  you both can do this

I chuckle lightly your unbelievable chase Lancaster I can have you sued for making false accusations trying to defame my name. You really twisted do I look like a murderer why would I want to have her dead

There is a plethora of reasons ....

"Chase please just stop creed saved my life he....

Alexa this guy cannot be trusted he proves that more than one

Fuck you chase Lancaster ... am out of here I can't stand you asshole

Sneering in his face I make my way out of the room

But something sticks at the back of my mind as I step out walking towards the hospital exit

What does chase mean when he said

" Alexa this guy cannot be trusted he is proven that more than once

Standing out the hospital looking at the building there is certainly more to Alexa Cruz and am gonna find out what it is no matter what.
