Re: Alexis/Reid
"I'm just giving you an alternative way to look at things," she said with a wide grin, happy to see that he was relaxing a little. It was the point of the invitation after all.
She was confused for a moment when he let go, but then he was spinning her around and Alexis was laughing as she closed the gap and returned into his arms. "Oh my, you've been hiding your talents from me. You're a bona fidae Fred Astaire."
Alexis followed his gaze. "I left my boyfriend at home. We were going to go to school together, but now I'm here for... a long time, but I never thought about marriage, not this young. She's only twenty one. I want to go to school, have a career... not that it's going to happen either."
