The Simpernaturals: Lexi’s First Date!
Good Morning folks! I sit here with my first cup of coffee in the wee hours of the morning wanting to update you all on Miss Lexi Blackburn. However, tumblr kept crashing because of the shockwave plugin not responding. So I’ve had to open this site multiple times just to get here to do this. Not really all that happy about it, I must say. I DO have to say though that I give all electronic stuff a very wide leeway……I just come to the conclusion that not all tech will work flawlessly all the time. So there ya go. But I digress……I am getting excited about this one storyline! So, lets dive in!
After their talk on the roof, Kevin tried to seduce Lexi in front of everyone. Luckily though, they were too occupied with the show on tv to care much. There was one person that was actually watching the whole exchange, but she thought that it was really sweet!
“So……when do you want to go on that date?” Kevin asked.
“The bar across the street is opening up here in a few, why don’t we go over there to see what it’s like?”
“Sure! Anything for you…” he said staring into her eyes dreamily. She giggled and thought, ‘what is wrong with me?! Im giggling like a school girl in pigtails……stop it Lexi’.
As Lexi turned to her parents, she brightened up a little more and said, “Mom? Dad? Kevin and I are going out for the evening”
“As in a date?” Gamer said nervously.
“That’s wonderful darling! Where are you going?” Bear put a calming hand on Gamer’s arm.
“The bar across the street”
“Good, that’s good…….now, if you’ll excuse us, Kevin and I need to have a little talk” Gamer said and got up. Everybody paid attention to him and Kevin. The first to want to speak was JB. She didn’t know what Gamer wanted with Kevin and knew that this was a charged situation for all. When Gamer saw JB, she looked so curiously at him that he had to add, “Relax JB, I know your son is a great kid……”
“Then why are you leaving the room?” she asked
“This is a mans talk……something that only a father would understand”
“Well I don’t see why you have to leave the room to do it”
“Too many opinions sour the experience” Gamer tried defending himself.
“Honey? I kinda have to agree with Gamer on this one” Chris said shocking everyone else.
“What?!” JB said incredulously
“It would be the same for me, when my Kim starts to date” Chris said lovingly.
“Yeah, that would only be if I got to go out anywhere” Kim piped up.
“You can with Lexi and Kevin!” JB smiled. Kim gave her a withering look.
“Really Mom?! They are going ON A DATE…..when do I get to have a little freedom and strike out on my own. You KNOW I know how to take care of myself. Daddy made sure of it…….I’m a certified lethal weapon!” she started getting a little hot headed.
“Just because your Daddy’s trainer is a 3rd degree black belt and has been teaching you since you were little how to defend yourself, doesn’t make it any safer out there for you” JB mothered.
Heaving a heavy-over exaggerated sigh Kim responded, “MOM……I AM a 3rd degree black belt too…….he’s taught me everything!”
“OK! ENOUGH” Bear said shocking them all, “Aside from Kim……I for one agree with JB…….why do you have to leave the room?”
“I’ve already TOLD everyone why darling” Gamer tried remaining calm. This wasn’t exactly going to be the Spanish inquisition. He just wanted to let Kevin know some things.
“And I back them up” Chris chimed in. Lexi, over in the corner, was burying her head in embarrassment. ‘WHY is it such a big deal?!’
“Can we GO NOW please?!” Kevin finally asked.
“Yes, just a minute son…….”
“If he has to leave the room, then there are two options……….you can either tell us what you told him after OR Chris can sit in on your little conversation” JB said throwing down the gauntlet. “And don’t forget, my dear friend, that I know when you are lying” she eyed him then.
“Alright already! SHEESH!! One little conversation and I am a criminal” Gamer over exaggerated. “I’ll tell you AFTER I have a word with him…….its nothing bad. However, I feel like I’d be a bad father if I DIDN’T have this conversation with him”
The room stayed silent as they left for the kitchen. Gamer couldn’t believe his friend! He knew Kevin to be an outstanding young man because JB was just as sweet and outstanding herself. How could he not be? He’s seen this kid grow up into a very well adjusted young man. His mind was buzzing as they stood at the counter for a minute.
“Sir?” Kevin prompted, “You wanted to speak with me?”
“Oh…..yeah…….right. So, you are taking my daughter out for the evening…….”
“To that bar across the street as you said…….well, I have been in that place. A few tips? Don’t speak to anyone that you don’t know, except the DJ and bartender. Keep Lexi with you the entire time, do not let her out of your sight!”
“But she’s a very smart woman………”
“But sir….with all due respect…..” Kevin tried. Gamer gave him a look to tell him that he meant business. Sighing he gave in, “Yes sir”
“And be home at a decent hour…….I am sure your parents would agree to this in particular. You wouldn’t like that place after a certain hour. It turns into a biker’s hangout after midnight……I’d like to tell you what time, however that is to be decided by everyone, not just me”
“Oh……and another thing…….” Gamer pulled out 40 simoleons.
“Really? This is too much sir…….really……” Kevin pushed the money back.
“Show my daughter a good time, son……..you deserve it. Go ahead……” he insisted. Kevin took the money and pocketed it as they left the room. As they went back to the room, everyone was all questions. All Gamer said was, “lets let these crazy kids go….”
“FINALLY!!” Lexi blurted out and went beet red. She got up, took Kevin’s arm, and said to him a little quieter, “Let’s go please”.
“Its okay…..no worries” Kevin whispered back.
“Okay! Here’s the rules…..” JB announced…”back before midnight, no alcohol, and no talking to strangers….”
“Fine” they both said in unison. JB got up, hugged, and kissed Kevin and then hugged Lexi smiling. The minute that they left, JB turned back around to face Gamer.
“You don’t trust me?” Gamer asked, challenging her a little. ‘Mothers’ he rolled his eyes internally while training his eyes not to follow suite. The room stayed silent……lots of thoughts weighed down the room. Most of the weight was in the fact that JB sounded like she didn’t trust Gamer at all.
“Gamer……really……..that isn’t fair!” JB said.
“Honey, I have to agree…….it really sounds like you don’t trust him. I know you don’t mean for it to sound that way, but it does” Chris said. Just then JB turned over to Bear who was just watching the situation from afar.
“Well don’t look at me! I know how a Mom thinks…….he’s your little baby boy. He’s growing up and its just SO heart wrenching that he likes someone. I feel the same way about Lexi. I don’t want her heart broken……just like JB doesn’t want Kevin’s heart broken. But JB…….you of all people know that Gamer means well and that you are able to trust him”
“I KNOW……..Im sorry Gamer”
“That’s okay…..if it makes you feel better, I told Kevin…….no alcohol, to keep Lexi with him at all times, and I gave him money”
“How much, mate?” Chris said pulling out his wallet. Gamer stopped him and insisted that he not pay him back.
“Its on me Chris……no one needs to know how much” Gamer said eyeing Bear with a knowing look.
Meanwhile, Lexi and Kevin got to their destination.
“Hes an awesome guy, your Dad” Kevin said as she smiled. “I really love that smile of yours” he flirted as he moved in closer. Before they knew it they were kissing!
Lexi blushed after and said, “I didn’t think that would ever happen”
Smiling, Kevin said, “Funny…….me either…..” and he hugged her tight. “Shall we go inside?”
As they entered the place, they realized just how loud the music really was and just how much they wanted to find a secluded spot that was quiet. The only place with the comfiest couch that they could find was the entrance to the bathroom.
“The bathroom?” Lexi giggled.
“Its the only quiet spot in here” Kevin laughed. Soon they started talking about their interests, school, and other things. Then the conversation turned flirtatious and one thing led to another. After their brief moment, the conversation turned to finding a different spot to be in.
“Why should we find a different place? This is perfect!” Lexi said.
“Well….” Kevin opened his arms, “I just thought that we could be alone somewhere else…..more…..private”
“Kevin Hemsworth! Are you suggesting what I think youre suggesting?” she turned a slight pink at the thought.
“Aren’t you?” he wiggled his eyebrows as Lexi laughed. “Come on…..let’s go!”
They went downstairs and found the perfect place. Kevin, who didn’t need any prompting from Lexi, just took Lexi by surprise.
As they messed around they found themselves opening up and going into the closet for even more privacy, even though no one was really around to see them.
Some time passed and finally they emerged. It was getting close to 11pm and they were thirsty, however, both their phones went off at the same time.
“UGH! Really?! They can’t leave me alone?” Lexi said aloud.
Kevin looked at his phone too and said, “Youre not the only one……I got the same kind of text……what does yours say?”
“When are you coming home? And its from my mother” sighed Lexi, “You?”
“You should be home by now, don’t you think? And its from my Mom” Kevin replied.
“I can’t wait to grow up and be on my own……I know they love us, but come on”
“Sometimes I feel the same, but I have to remind myself they do it BECAUSE they love us. Plus, I have a feeling like they’re nervous for us. That maybe we won’t last and it’ll be this big drama or something”
Lexi laughed, “Parents! You can’t live with’em…..”
“And you can’t live without’em!” Kevin finished laughing. “Come on, we should get a drink upstairs and then head out for home. They can wait thirty minutes I think. Im texting Mom back and let her know….”
“Sounds good! I really had a great time!”
Thus ends another Simpernaturals! Thanks for reading all! Now its time for me to head out the door to my workout! Enjoy the weekend!
