- HAZEL -
I let out an exhale, resting on the car window. These past few days have given so ti to think. Not about anything serious, just more about the right thing to do and my well being.
“When will we get there?” I ask my driver, my eyes still on the road through the tinted window. Since I currently live at ho, one of the perks I have is using an Uber less. I have my own chauffeur.
“Soon, Miss Sumrs. We’re not too far away.” He responds. I sigh. It’s feels like I’ve been sat for hours. I’ve had nothing in my belly since morning, it is still morning by the way, and I’m beginning to have a headache. Kate wanted us girls to et at her family’s beach house to have so us ti before we resu our stressful college lives, no matter how far away the actual resumption date for and her is. This is the first ti all of us will be at a place together and in the sa city. While the other ladies have college as well with active ongoing lectures, they surely found ways to make this gathering along with the others to co, work. I for one know if this case was reversed, I wouldn’t be able to, but good thing the universe had other plans for to enable not to miss out on all the activities that’ll tag my life as the closest thing to normal over the past few weeks.
This makes a smile form on my face. If I wasn’t so hungry, maybe I would’ve forgotten half my worries but I’ll be fine. A small giggle leaves my lips.
I find it really relaxing but I’m also bothered. It’ll last for a few days and we still have access to everyone else we know but staying that long with the girls while having a pretend boyfriend they’d want to know all about is unnerving. A pretend boyfriend Kate already knows, how well she knows him? I don’t know.
I don’t want to be caught in a lie that she’ll sniff a mile away talk less of just a few feet away from . I let out a sigh. This may end up being harder than I anticipated. But I won’t let my worry spoil sothing good that’s yet to co. I’ll think about this along with a solution much later, but now? I’ll live in the present.
With a groan, my eyes co shut and I rest my head backwards. There better be ready made food where I’m headed or I swear, I’ll eat a human being. What’s the difference between human at and chicken in the face of hunger, anyway?
I burst out laughing. I’ve never been so disgusted by my own thoughts as I am right now and it is funny.
“Hey, look, the bitch is here!” I hear a distant yell in my head.
“Let’s gang up on her for keeping us waiting.”
“Hoo, she won’t know what hit her.”
My brows crease. At the first sentence, I thought I was just hearing things or having so hallucinations due to hunger but after the second and third sentences, I couldn’t help but worry.
My back jerks off the car seat and my eyes open imdiately as I peer my head towards the wound up window.
I couldn’t help but grin. They’re all outside. We’re here. And the best part? Pat has a saucer of fruit on her hand that she’s munching on so I can tell there is sothing to eat. I’d say I missed these people if food wasn’t on my mind right now. I wait for my chauffeur to park the car so I can co out.
The mont the car ca to a halt, I gush out. “Resa, Pat!” I yell, all smiled, my body half way out the car door. I feel my heart rate drop and my smile fade when I sight a familiar face. Two actually.
Not the bad ones, but the faces of the two people I never expected to see at all. Killian and Liam. I gulp. This was supposed to be an all girl’s thing, why are they here?
And why does it bother so much? Why do I feel uncomfortable? After all my depressing thoughts and hunger, I should be happy to see him here as well, I try to convince myself. I look up to face him, trying to not let my gaze be penetrating.
A lady’s hand curls up Killian’s shoulder, hugging him from behind.
Jealousy suddenly hits . Now I know why I’m bothered. My over-protectiveness is being triggered. Killian did not even resist her touch. I scoff, drawing my eyes away from him and Kate when I feel strong arms cascade the length of my back, pulling to him. My body stiffens. “It’ll just be and you, angel.” A deep voice says, bringing out of my head in the most shocking way possible. Liams face is so close to my ears that I felt his voice vibrate on my skin and can feel his heavy breathing on my neck. This irks and gives goosebumps. It doesn’t feel as good as it’s supposed to. It doesn’t feel right at all.
With one more look at Killian, my face straightens amidst grit teeth. It was as if a fog just gave way for easy thinking in my head. If he is okay with soone touching him that way in front of , then I am about to make Liam his biggest nightmare.
Two can play this ga quite well, and trust , only one of the two will win.
