Alex Summers x OC (Layla Hemmings)
Warnings: SO MUCH CUTENESS!!! fluff
------------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s been about four months since Layla had been enrolled to Xavier’s School For Gifted Youngsters. She had made a few friends in the school, but her strongest relationship was with Alex Summers. The boy she brought back to life and who had asked her out. She had helped him catch up on what he had missed since he was gone. She also reunited him with his family. They always spent their free time together since they had become official three months ago. They wanted to take things slow since this was her first relationship and he was getting use to being alive again. Today they were going to spend some time together and have a lazy day, which neither of them ever really got since he was back in training to be on the team again and Layla was usually working on finding the true limit to her powers.
It was a warm sunny day when Layla got up. She got out of bed and turned on the radio as she was getting ready for the day like she usually did. After she put on a tank top and started looking for what to wear, the radio personnel came on.
“Good morning Westchester County! Today is a beautiful sunny day here and I’m in the mood to play some happy music to go along with this gorgeous weather we’re having! This one goes to all of you who feel as happy as I do this morning. This Rita Ora’s Your Song!”
Layla started jumping up and down with utter joy. She loves this song and even though Alex would never admit it, he liked it too. She grabbed her hair brush and started dancing around and singing into the brush like a microphone.
“….Last night we were way up, kissing in the back of the cab. And then you say, ‘Love, baby, let’s go back to my flat’. And when we wake up, never had a feeling like that…..” she danced in front of her mirror, flipping her ginger hair around, then goes and starts dancing and jumping on her bed.
“….I don’t want to hear sad songs anymore, I only wanna hear love songs! I found my heart up in this place tonight!” She jumped off the bed and spun in circles, giving the song her all.
“….Don’t wanna sing mad songs anymore! Only wanna sing your song! ‘Cause your song’s got me feeling like…” she goes to the middle of her room and jumps around in a circle, flipping her hair around once again.
“I’m in love! I’m in love! I’m in love! Yeah you know your song’s got me feeling like I’m…” she finally turns and faces the door then suddenly stops.
Alex was right there. Leaning against the door frame. One hand on the door knob and the other trying to help him hold in his giggles. Layla’s cheeks turn bright red as she tries to hide her face.
“Alex! H–how long have you been standing there?” She asks nervously, hiding the hairbrush behind her back.
“Long enough to know that you still jump on your bed like a little kid.” He smirks.
She put her head down, still trying to hide her face in embarrassment. He walks over to her and hugs her tightly, then looks at her.
“Don’t be embarrassed. It’s adorable!” He tells her sweetly.
She looked up at him, still blushing and feeling so tiny in his arms. She gives him a small smile. He let’s go and tucks some of her hair behind her ear and just smiles adoringly at her. They stay that way for awhile until she realizes that she was still half naked.
“Um, Alex? Do you mind if I finish getting dressed?” She asks shyly.
He looks down at her half dressed body and instantly turns red. He quickly turns around and rubs the back of his neck.
“Uh, yeah, of course! I–I’ll just wait for you downstairs….” He trails off nervously.
He walks hastily out of the room, still looking down and nearly running into the door way. Layla quickly put on a lacy off the shoulder crop top and high waisted velvet bell bottoms and heads downstairs to where Alex is. As Layla came down the stairs, Alex turned and looked at her as she came down the stairs. When he sees her, his eyes light up and flashes her his adorable crooked smile. She blushes and smiles back. He takes her hand and they head out the front door and borrow a car from Charles.
——————————————————————————
They spent the entire day at Glen Island Beach. They orginally went just to collect seashells and get fresh air, but they stayed for the sand and the ocean, which made Layla feel relieved that she put her two piece bathing suit on under her clothes. Layla always loved the beach, but now she had someone to enjoy it with and it made her feel like she was on cloud nine. It also didn’t hurt that Alex sunbathed next to her shirtless.
As usual, Layla brought one of her many sketchbooks. He laid out in the sun while she sat up and used her knees as a table for her sketchbook. He looked up to see what she was doing. He noticed she was drawing a picture of a mother and her baby playing in the water, reminding her of her and her mother.
“That’s beautiful.” he tells her, sitting up and half smiling.
She looks over at him and softly chuckles. “Thanks. I’m drawing it for my mom. This was always one of our favorite things to do when I was a kid.” she told him reminising about her mom.
“You miss her, huh?” he asked, putting his hand comfortingly on her back.
“A little. It gets a little easier each day… I mean, at least I still get to talk to her, y’know?” she replies quietly.
“Yeah. Yeah I know what you mean.” he says, laying back, supporting himself on his elbows.
Layla goes back to drawing, until the mother and baby leave, but Layla keeps adding small details. Alex sits up again and looks over her shoulder. He smirks and taps her opposite shoulder, making her look that way when he quickly takes her small sketchbook with a playful look on his face and she whips her head around to see him. She starts laughing and trying to get it back. Before she can grab the book, he wraps his arm around her waist and rolls over to be on top.
He’s surprised when she uses most of her strength to end up back on top. The laughter fades out when they make eye contact. He looks deep into her forest green eyes and she into his baby blue ones. Layla bites her lip. He tucks her hair behind her ear and gives her a half smile. After a few moments, like a magnet, their lips meet each other in a sweet, romantic kiss. She cups his face in her hands as his arms wrap tightly around her waist.
They’re embraced in the kiss for awhile. Once they pull away, they notice an elderly couple looking over in admiration. They lift their drinks to Alex and Layla and the two of them wave nervously to the elderly couple. They look at each other blushing from slight embarrassment.
“Don’t be embarrassed sweeties. We were there once too at your age.” The cute little old woman told them sweetly.
“Wait until you get to be our age. Even though you won’t look the same, you’re love will still make you feel like you’re youngsters.” her husband chimes in.
Layla just smiled and chuckled at their words, feeling less embarrassed.
“Just you wait, this will be a story you’ll tell your grandkids one day and it’ll make them believe in love.” the old lady continued as she held her husband’s hand as they looked lovingly into each other’s eyes.
Layla and Alex can’t help but look into each others’ eyes the same way. They’re fingers intertwine and Alex kisses her hand sweetly. The elderly couple pack up their things.
The elderly man leans in to talk to Alex. “You keep a hold of her, Sonny. She’s a real keeper.” He tips his fedora to them and walks hand in hand with his wife as they carry their lawn chairs and cooler. Alex and Layla look back at each other again. He leans back on his elbows while she still straddles his lap.
“How crazy would it be if that WAS us in 40 to 50 years?” he asks nonchantly, smirking.
Layla giggles. “They were so cute!” she exclaimed.
“I’m serious.” he says while chuckling.
Layla giggles again. “Well, if we’re anything like them, then I’d say we’re two very lucky people.” she tells him.
They stay in that same position, looking into each others’ eyes once again. Then Layla gets up and grabs Alex’s hand pulls him to his feet.
“One more dip in the ocean before we go back to the mansion?” she asks, smiling.
“I’ll race ya.” he replies.
They race to the water, with Layla ahead by just a little bit until Alex grabs her by her waist, spins her around and carries her to the water with him. They splash each other and play around until the sun started to set. They trudged out of the water and got ready to go. They walked hand in hand back to the car. Alex loaded up the trunk as Layla admired the view of the setting sun.
He walked up next to her and they sat on the hood of the car as they watched the sun set. She put her head on his shoulder and sighed to show she was relaxed. He looked down at her, half smiled and put his arm around her, pulling her closer and kissed the top of her head before looking back to the sunset view. After the sun had set and it got dark, they went back to the mansion.
——————————————————————————
Once they got back to the mansion, Alex walked Layla back to her room. Before she went in, she turned to him and half smiled.
“I had an amazing time with you today, Alex.” she said shyly.
“Me too.” he replied back, taking her hand.
“I’ll see you tomorrow?” she asked sweetly.
“Of course.” he tells her with a half smile.
He brings her hand to lips and kisses it, making her blush. Once he let go, she kisses his cheek and goes to her room. He walks back to his room, still smiling.
After that day, they both knew it was love. Now only time will tell on who says ‘I love you’ first. maybe it will be Alex, or maybe it will be Layla. All they know is how they feel about each other and those feelings are strong.
