At the response by her closest friend, Alexis heaved out a relieved sigh and gave a genuine smile towards her, feeling all sorts of gratefulness that she, at least, would tolerate the awkward situation to a degree. Though she could not help but laughed gently, yet awkwardly at the comment from Lana about her making a lethal poison. She knew that the brunette was just merely joking, and yet, somehow, deep within her, she felt that Lana did disliked Mr. Keegan to a point that she might be tempted to do so, if she really could.<br/><br/>Scratching her cheek gently, and yet keeping that smile upon her face, she pushed the thoughts away but then was genuinely surprised in a way when Lana began to mention to her of being grateful for Alexis to inform her about the dinner. She knew she would always prefer to tell her friend beforehand; it was mostly the right thing to do, since they both were sharing the same apartment. But still, the blonde gave her a wide smile before excusing herself to her bedroom. She need to get herself a short shower and dressed herself to a more decent clothes for the special occasion after all.<br/><br/>Alexis had dressed herself in semi-casual wear as well, just something she tossed on herself but still, at least would looked pleasing enough to the eyes. Wearing a slightly fancier long-sleeved red blouse, with a small v-neck collar; it did looked like somewhat a dinner blouse in a way, but she dressed it down with a pair of simple blue jeans. Moving to the kitchen, she was given another surprise when Lana offered to help out and Alexis could only look excited before then begin with the dinner preparations along with her.<br/><br/>And then the doorbell rang; which caused Alexis to turn towards the clock hung at the wall and smiling to herself, as she knew that it was Mr. Keegan arriving at the arranged time. "I'll get that!" the blonde quickly commented to Lana, before walking out of the kitchen to head towards the door of the apartment. The young blonde opened the door and was pleasantly greeted by the sight of Mr. Keegan, and even with his little greeting at the door. At that, the young female gave a short, amused laugh and gave him a gentle punch upon his shoulder as a friendly gesture. Even if it was just only had been a week that they do get to know each other more, Alexis had already seen him as a friend where she already felt comfortable to do such gestures.<br/><br/>"Come on in! Just make sure you better be in your best behavior today, okay? Lana isn't really too happy about you coming over, so you have to behave and show that you can be a nice guy if you wanted to be, kay?" She had leaned forward a bit towards him to speak to him softly, so he could pick up her words but then chuckled as she drew herself away. "But anyways, you look very handsome today, Mr. Keegan. All dressed up to have dinner with his own neighbor, how sweet!" It was a joking jab by her, but nevertheless, she moved herself away while holding the door open and allowed for Marcus to enter into their apartment.<br/><br/>"We are actually just done with dinner. I just need to make desserts with Lana, so, you can go ahead and just sit at the living room, if you like," Alexis mentioned to Marcus with a genuine smile upon her face, before moving herself over to the kitchen. Once entering back, the blonde was slightly beaming as she went over to Lana.<br/><br/>"Mr. Keegan is here! You should go out and at least say 'Hi!'. I can do the things here by myself, you can go ahead and help to set the dining table!" With that, Alexis gave a nudge to the brunette, as if nudging her to go ahead and play friendly with their neighbor, or at least to greet him at least.
