No, no, no! Stop over-analyzing everything.
“Umm Sebastian, it’s kind of hard to walk like this.” I say from in front of him.
He turns me around and looks down towards his crotch. I see the huge bulge and realize why he’s using me to cover his body.
“Oh.” I say with a smile and continue to the bar.
“I need a strong shot of tequila to get rid of my hard cock. Otherwise, I’ll happily fuck you on the bar with everyone watching.”
He traps me between the counter and his body and pours us two shots of tequila.
“Hey man!” Two guys approach us.
“Hey! Just in time for our tequila shot!” Sebastian declares.
“And who are we doing a shot with?” One of them says as they both stare back and forth between us.
“This is Bella.” Sebastian introduces, placing an arm around my waist possessively. “Bella, this is Thomas,” he refers to the ginger, “and this is Nathan,” referring to the brunette.
“Isa!” I hear from behind me and turn to see Alayna rushing towards me. How the hell is she out after last night? I hug her eagerly.
“I thought her name is Bella?” Nathan says.
“It’s Isabel.” He answers.
I introduce the guys to Alayna and afterward, we do shots. It’s obvious the guys are curious as to who I am to Sebastian, and it makes me insecure to think that they believe I’m another meaningless one-night-stand.
“How the hell are you alive after last night?” Sebastian asks Alayna.
“This is so awkward.” She laughs out loud. “It was the first time I meet you, and that’s how you see me. Well, if you must know, I’m stubborn, stupidly so, and when someone challenges me to do something, I can never say no.”
“You guys should’ve seen her last night! She thought she could outdo a guy double her size in shots.” Sebastian mocks. He begins retelling the story and Alayna smacks Sebastian on the arm to shut him up, but he keeps going.
“Everyone gets drunk in college! Jeez, you’d think I’m the first one.” Alayna mumbles.
“Show them the picture of how she fell asleep in my car.” Sebastian tells me.
“Don’t you dare!” Alayna threatens. “You show them the picture, I’ll tell them what I saw when I woke up in the middle of the ride.” She raises her eyebrows at both of us.
“You saw that!” I blush thinking of her seeing me straddling Sebastian.
“Well hello.” I hear an unfamiliar voice say right before Sebastian’s friend joins us. He’s the one Gary said might be in the drug business. Francisco.
The second he joins our group, I sense a change in Sebastian, but I’m too tipsy to examine whether it’s real or I’m being paranoid.
“Hey man!” Thomas said. “Nice of you to join us once in a while.”
“Hi, I’m Alayna.” She offers her hand and he takes it.
“I’m Isabel.” I add, also shaking his hand.
“Welcome back. I thought you were gone for the month.” Sebastian says.
“How can you skip college for a month?” Alayna asks.
He just looks at her and winks.
“Okay. Great answer.” She says sarcastically and we all laugh. Except for Sebastian and Francisco. They don’t laugh.
“Let me show you guys where the good alcohol is at. Premium quality Chivas. We’ll catch you later, girls.” Sebastian says dismissively and walks away.
As soon as they’re gone, I look at Alayna. “Was that weird or is it in my head?”
“Was what weird?” She asks.
“How Sebastian just dismissed us and left.”
“Isabel, he’s going to drink with his friends, chill.”
I shake my head. “Right, you’re right. Did I tell you he makes me a bit crazy?”
“Only a million times. Now come on, I want to play beer pong!”
“I am so in.”
Alayna and I play beer pong until Selena arrives. We start dancing and we drink more and more. I’m slightly confused because Sebastian’s around and he hasn’t talked to me since before. He stands with his group of friends, including Misty, and they’re laughing and also having a good time. I tell myself it’s fine, he’s chilling with his friends and I’m chilling with mine.
Another thirty minutes pass, and now, I’m fully confused.
After one more shot for each of us, I receive a text from Tina saying she’s here. “I’m going to find Tina and Gary!” I say to the girls before walking outside.
I spot them right next to the pool. “Guys!” I shout and run to them. “How’s everything?”
“I’m a mess.” Gary responds dramatically.
“Why?” I ask.
He bites his lip, looking guilty.
“The idiot slept with Chance last night.” Tina says with anger in her voice.
“What? Why?” I ask loudly.
“Cause I was so horny and he was being all sweet and cute. As I said, I’m a mess.” Gary responds.
“Aww, come here G.” I say and he cuddles into my breasts.
“I need these pillows to soothe me over.” He says, snuggling into my boobs.
“Well, let them make you feel better.” I coo, stroking his hair.
“They do. They’re like therapy. Promise they’ll always be there for me?”
“I promise.”
He looks up at me. “How about you Tina and I – what!” He shouts and stumbles backward, but before I can turn and see what’s got him so shocked, I’m splashed with water.
“What the fuck!” I shout. Sebastian is holding a hose and spraying water straight at me. “Are you serious right now?” I shout as he throws the hose away.
“Yeah, you smelt funny. Thought you needed to be cleaned.” He’s trying to be casual, but I see his clenched fists and feel anger oozing off of him. What’s wrong with him? We were having such a good night.
“What the fuck is wrong with you?” I look around and everyone is staring at us. I am so … embarrassed! I charge towards him, wanting to punch him, but right before I smack his chest, he ducks, grabs me around the thighs, and hauls me over his shoulder.
“Put me down!” I shout.
Ignoring me, he charges up the stairs and goes straight into an empty bedroom, which I’m assuming is his, before he closes the door and pushes me against it roughly.
He pulls my strapless dress off my body in one second, and in the next, he slams his lips on mine.
“Sebastian!” I move my head to the side, refusing his kiss.
“No other people also means you don’t let other men touch you or your tits, let alone kiss them! Are you seriously going to flirt with other guys in my party? You spent the first half of the night all over me, and the second I wander off, I see a guy’s face on your tits. Tell me again how women aren’t liars.” He growls out loud before kissing me again.
I attempt dodging his kiss but he’s furiously adamant in his actions.
“He’s gay, you freaking idiot!” I finally shout out loud when I can.
He immediately stops his kisses.
“What? He doesn’t look gay.” He responds breathlessly, coming down from his anger. No one would know Gary is gay unless they spoke to him. He strays away from the norm and stereotypically, he dresses like a ‘straight guy’. But there’s a reason stereotypes suck.
“Well, he is. Don’t stick to stereotypes. Not every gay guy is flamboyant. And he’s been a close friend for two years, so stop being such a presumptuous asshole and get off of me!”
“Shit.” He groans regret evident in his tone.
“Get the hell off of me.”
Taking in a few deep breaths, he continues holding me close and tucks his head into my neck.
“Angel.” He moans remorsefully into my neck. “I’m sorry.” He pleads, all cute and cuddly. He lifts his face and he’s smiling at me.
“No, get off.” I repeat.
“Angel,” he groans softly against my neck, “forgive me.” He kisses my
neck softly and I shiver in response.
“S-Seb.”
He quickly goes to his knees. Is he going to beg me to forgive him? Nope, I was wrong. Cause instead, he sucks my clit through my panties in apology.
“Ah!” I moan out loud at the sensation, grabbing his head for support.
“Forgive me, Bella. I saw him all over you … I couldn’t control it. I know it sounds crazy, but I couldn’t.”
“S-Seb!” I shout, pulling his hair away then closer. He’s sucking my clit hard, then flicking it quickly with his talented tongue. I close my eyes and all I see are the people who were laughing at me.
“No!” I push him, making him fall on his ass. Serves him right, I’m always falling on my ass in front of him.
I run to the closet and grab the first thing I see, which ends up being a massive sweatshirt. I wear it and it covers my soaked dress.
“Isabel, listen-”
“No, you listen. That was not okay. Humiliating me was not okay.” I put the sweatshirt on and walk towards the door, but he’s blocking the exit.
I glare at him as he looks down at me frowning.
“You’re not wearing that. It’s longer than your dress. It looks like you’re naked under there.”
I laugh out loud. “And whose fault is that? Maybe if you didn’t splash me, I wouldn’t have to be half-naked right now!” I push him and yank the door open.
“What the hell?” Alayna says when I’m back outside.
“He’s insane!” I say to her as Selena joins us.
“What the hell happened?” She asks.
“Babe, we need to catch up.” I need to tell her everything if I want to remain sane while dealing with Sebastian fucking Carter.
“Hmm.” I hear the devil’s voice from behind me and instinctively roll my eyes. “I propose a five-some, what do you guys think?” Jax scowls at Sebastian and smacks the back of his head.
“Touch her, and you’re dead.” He responds before pulling Selena to his chest.
“Go away, Sebastian.” I turn to face him, still furious over his extremely immature actions.
“Oh, come on, Bella.” He responds in a gravelly voice, looking me up and down, heating my body. Nope, not heating my body at all, I try to convince myself. “I thought we already made friends.”
Selena looks at me curiously, and I mouth ‘later’ to her. I look at Sebastian and smile sweetly before giving him the middle finger, and walking away.
“Feisty.” I hear him saying followed by a small chuckle.
“So, how’s stuff with you and Jax?” I ask Selena. We’re sitting with a group of friends, laughing, and generally having a good time… and I am blatantly ignoring Sebastian. He sits across from me, and I feel the burn of his stare every couple of seconds. I thought that once we have sex, the tension between us would decrease. Instead, it intensified to a degree that I can’t even begin to fathom. Right now, I don’t know if I want to hit him or fuck him. Maybe a combination of both.
“Really good. We’ve worked things out and I want to tell you all about it! But not in this loud place, and definitely not when I’m this drunk. And what the hell is going on with you and Sebastian? Why did he spray you with water?”
“As you said, we need to have this conversation soberly.”
My eyes drift to his, and he’s watching me. I stare back. How can one look cause so much havoc in my body? Our eyes communicate what our bodies don’t. How much we want to touch each other, fuck, lick, and suck. I bite my lip to stop myself from calling out to him, and his eyes zero in on the action.
“Isa?” Alayna calls my name.
“Yep?” I reluctantly turn to her
“So, you know Jenna?”
“She’s with you on the cheerleading squad, right?” I ask.
“Yeah. She broke her leg and it’s really bad. She had to quit cheerleading indefinitely. Since you were on the cheerleading team in your high school-”
“Oh, no way.” I interrupt before she asks the question, I know she will.
“Why not?” Selena asks from Jax’s lap. “You were amazing! And it’s always so much fun to watch.”
“Then you join.” I retort dryly. I don’t think I can fit cheerleading into my schedule. I have so much studying to do every single day. I go to ‘Therapeutic Ways’, the charity I volunteer at, twice a week, and I’m planning its fundraiser.
“No!” Alayna interjects. “No offense Selena, you know I love you, but we need an experienced person. One who can do backflips, cartwheels, and is already confident in being a flyer. We don’t have time to train someone new.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Selena can dance, really well. Just ask her about the first time we met.” Jax says. She smiles down at him then looks at us.
“Alayna’s right. Yes, I can dance, but I can’t do any stretchy, gymnastics moves.”
“I beg to differ.” Jax says smirking.
“Please, Isa! I’ll do your laundry for two weeks.” I contemplate her proposition. I did enjoy cheerleading in high school, and it’s great for the body. I could replace the gym with cheerleading. Plus, Alayna has been there for me quite a lot recently.
“Fine, make it a month and you’ve got yourself a deal.”
She accepts and hugs me dramatically.
“It’ll be like high school days, Isa. Me cheering you on.” Selena adds.
“Hopefully not exactly like high school.” I respond. “Remember when I fell flat on my ass during one of the most important matches?”
“Yeah!” She laughs. “You couldn’t sit down for a week.”
“Hey.” Alayna nudges my arm and I look at her. “Where’s that hot dude? Francisco? I haven’t seen him in ages.”
I look around. “I have no clue. Maybe he left?”
“Damn. I thought so.”
“So anyways,” Thomas continues a story he’s telling from the other side. “She meow-ed, literally meow-ed when we were having sex!”
“Dude. Straight up meow-ed?” Nathan asks, looking disturbed.
“Yeah, man!” Thomas replies, rubbing his forehead with his hand.
“Was fucking weird, and what’s worse, fuck, I liked it.” We all laugh when Sebastian joins in on the conversation, looking straight at me.
“I don’t know about meow-ing.” Sebastian begins, his eyes on me. “I prefer the girl who repeats my name over and over again, shouting it like a prayer, like she needs me and only me, like I’m the only one who can give her what she wants.” My breath hitches in response to his words.
Our friends holler and look between the two of us. I shake my head with a smile and lean back on my chair.
“I once fucked a forty-six-year-old who wanted to be called mommy. No shame – I loved it!” Nathan interjects.
But I still can’t get Sebastian’s words out of my head.
“Excuse me.” I mumble and head to the toilet to compose myself. I wash my face as I catch my breath. Looking at the mirror, I curse when I see that the marks on my neck now show since he sprayed me with water. All my make-up wore off and my hair is also a mess. Dammit! I take three deep breaths and hope that no one can see the hickeys in the dark.
I walk back to our group with my arms folded and my eyes shooting daggers at Sebastian. I sit across from him and refuse to look at him. Minutes pass before he gets up and looks at Nathan sitting next to me. “Switch places with me.”
“Why?”
“Cause Bella wants me to sit next to her, right?” Sebastian says using his charming, sexy as hell voice.
“Nah, I’m good with you being all the way over there.” I point at his old seat. Everyone thinks I’m joking, but I’m not.
“Nathan, get the fuck up, now.” Sebastian leans down and grabs his arm to pull him up.
“Woah, man. Okay, I’m up.”
Sebastian sits next to me and watches me as I grow uncomfortable under his stare. He pushes his chair closer to mine and strokes the side of my arm.
“T
en minutes ago, we were eye-fucking each other, and right now you refuse to look at me. Care to explain?”
I didn’t want his touch on me at that moment. I get up and go around a corner, so we have privacy. He follows me.
“You’re an ass who embarrassed me, and now your hickeys show all over my neck since you stupidly decided to splash me with water! And don’t get me started on the fact you showed Stanley your mark yesterday!”
