“The girl we met literally just bragged about her ‘daddy’ getting her a helicopter. I mean, for what reason does this fifteen year old need that.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuaVyTG6Rf

Lisa soothed Cherry’s shoulder as we all watched the same girl most likely telling the same story to another group of people, “Honey, I can't help that they’ve never been told no. If their parents can afford to spoil them it’s their problem when they have a horrible reality check when someone does tell them no.”

“And not every rich kid is raised to act that way. The girl who I was talking to over food was the sweetest person. And I only found out from Lisa that she’s the governor's daughter.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q3jwI5qFJ

I felt gentle taps on my back and my eyes widened thinking it was Faye. I had purposely positioned myself so I'd be looking at the door waiting for her to come in. Had she sneaked in? There's no way I've been a literal hawk. I was a bundle of nerves when I looked back but it wasn’t her, rather it was the waitress from last night, “Nice to see you again stranger.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPVeEjcfQT
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEFOZlomkc
“Oh hi it's nice to see you again too.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUr1FzSwDP

Cherry, being here, appeared right at my side to assess the stranger, “Who’s this?”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnvxhWLiKs
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJzJ3aAX2Q
“This is the woman who practically saved my night.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLRBRETM6h

“Oh your giving me too much credit.”
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAe3JXRA08
“I’m only giving credit where it's due. And please give me your name. I feel horrible for not knowing it in the first place.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7V8p3ogQq

“I could say the same about you. Dale hasn’t gotten off my back since I went out of my way for a gorgeous lady. And the names Amelia and you?”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7x4m1JdJj
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IR3NG5ZRz
“Cleo. It’s nice to officially meet you.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRtxhBCWzK

I held my hand out and I felt a sting of electricity as she took it shaking it, “Likewise. And I Hate to spring this on you but there's this girl my parents desperately want me to marry even though I really don’t like them. And she’s coming over here to probably ask me to dance for the fifth time tonight so would you do me another favor and sneak out with me. Just to a balcony or something just so she gets the picture.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAl7yLwqr1
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8FbuCbVvL
“After how you’ve helped me, I see no reason why.”
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43kGr4Njqc
I kicked Cherry when Amelia looked away for a minute as she’d been pinching my side all throughout the conversation. I had no idea why and really didn’t care, “Alright let’s go. I think that one just opened up.”
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoScgFPrtbn
I followed behind her and was met with a nice view of the garden I saw coming inside the huge mansion. It was really a nice sight to see. I was about to say just that but paused seeing as the other woman was already looking at me, “You look very beautiful tonight.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gAnF4FcGp
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxLLiQrBK7
I took the compliment in stride and thought nothing of it like when I compliment Cherry, “Thank you and I promise I don't always look like a drunken mess. And you clean up very nicely as well.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27M1QQ4R3U

I had this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach as she smiled at me. It wasn’t the same kind I got from Faye and of course it wouldn’t be but it felt like guilt, “Um… So, how do you know Alexandra?”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbJHQZp8oS
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7EPUjXDZU
“I’m her friend's cousin. But she only brought me because the restaurant is catering here. How about you?”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr2x6YnKYv
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK6RP5KpaJ
“I was invited by my friend's girlfriend,” It went silent and I could see the wheels turning in her head. I was only thinking of this as an opportunity to get back at Faye. What if she had taken to Aella? But would that even make sense? She was at home and it takes about an hour to get here. Maybe she hadn’t done something but then again I wouldn't know.268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSYTfMCMO1

Through my never ending thought process Amelia took her chance getting right in front of me about to lean in, that is until I gently pushed her away, “No- I’m sorry but I'm still in a relationship.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJi2yRb12q
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡao8cNSt2YY
She scoffed and granted she didn’t try that again but she didn’t let down, “With someone who doesn’t pay attention to you? When she took the job that doesn’t mean her availability for you should just still.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK09ZNLCCqv

I rubbed my head wondering if I had taken some tylenol since my headaches have become more frequent. I guess drama doesn’t suit me, “You may be right but I'm still just not like that. Nor will I ever be because I love Faye. Please understand.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IUg1orp9q
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjHIsIPzr3
“But i could-”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gqx2u6mg0
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dw4kxposf
“She did ask you nicely now,” My head whipped in the direction of Faye’s voice as did Amelia.
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9rx3iLYM9
“I can only guess you are the missing girlfriend.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSfz4JAXli

Faye had that spine-chilling look, one that has never been pointed out to me, “And i can guess- actually i know that you will be leaving now. And take your hands off her.”
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEurESZzUEj
I stepped away from Amelia once more, having not noticed she had her hand connected on top of my forearm. I gave my best apologetic facade and she left thankfully peacefully. Unless you count the death glare she gave Faye on her way out. When Faye looked back in my direction I could hear the forming question based solely on how it looked, “I wasn’t going to-”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5mcS6pi1I

“I know you weren’t. …I am so sorry that I've been neglectful. It was never something I purposely did if you could believe that.”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV3qtFkZDE

She seemed at a loss for words. She sighed as I took a step forward to where I was flushed up against her, “I always love it when you wear green it always compliments your eyes.”
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtZR00AyDS
“Everything you wear compliments you and thank you,” On the verge of speaking again she was cut off by a group of probably five men appearing in the doorway. The first who came apologized and two in the back whistled. That irked me but I gave it the benefit of the doubt, “Why don’t we go to the garden? I don't think we’ll be interrupted there.”
