The Alpha Queen’s Four Kings

Chapter 2. Erm...moving on?

RAYA'S POV

"Babe!" Did she just do what I can obviously feel she just done?!

"What the-" SMACK! Again?! Gosh dang it! The other cheek just got stung!!

"Es!!" I saw another slap coming my way and shoved her away.

"Oh sorry babes, got caught up in the moment!" she said blinking out of her slapping trance. Yeah you're telling me! And my cheeks!

"Here's the lesson out of this s**t show sweet cheeks," she smirks, I think she thinks she's funny with this punn. It is. But I won't let her know I think it is, she continues,

"right now you're feeling low, and hurt, inside and out. Remember this moment. You my darling Queen are not broken. Hurt yes. Broken, you are not. You have done nothing wrong and whatever you thought you had with that d**k was all a load of BS. You are better than him and better than wallowing over someone who never knew what he had in you!"

She hops up off the bed and starts throwing my clothes at me,

"Straighten your crown my darling! Were going shopping! We're going to that party Coco is having tonight and we're going to get blitzed!!" she said the last part with one of her grins, the ones that meant trouble. I love it!

Going to our bestie trio Coco's party tonight sounded good. We haven't seen her much lately but ffs. I don't want to move.

Insert deep sigh, just to be dramatic. "Well...do I have a choice in this?" I ask.

I know she just gave me an awesome motivational all power to me speech but I have every right to be bummed right now...right? Not like she'll give me a choice anyway.

"Ha ha ha!" she literally Laughs.Out.Loud, bending over slapping her knee and wiping away a fake tear, like it's the funniest thing I've ever said. Rude Es. Just rude!

"Not a chance in hell my sweets! Now get up and shower. Wash last night away. Get that funky boy stank off you. And be quick about it! I've ordered an Uber for pick up in 30mins!" she says as walks to the bed grabbing my hands and pushing me towards the bathroom.

I'm still starkers, but after all we've been through together she doesn't even think twice seeing me in all my glory.

Estelle gives me a quick slap on my arse as she runs out of my room giggling, leaving me to shower and I focus on her words. "Wash last night away". That's exactly what I'll do.

As I'm showering I realise something, it's more the fact I feel like I've just lost a best friend in Jude after what he has just done more than anything. Is that all we were? I knew I loved him. But in love ? Meh.

I feel like I should be more upset than what I am, but I just don't feel that...maybe that was the real purpose of Estelle's b***h slaps. Slapping the give-a-shiznit right outta me. Geez she can slap good for a tiny girl. Ha ha. Might have to start calling her Bee. Feisty little thing with a sharp stinging slap.

I hop out of the shower with 15mins to spare. I know the Bee will be back in 10mins. She likes being punctual. Much to the dismay of the Uber drivers who turn up one minute past the time she's called them for, who cop a spraying of why they should be on time. She drops points on their reviews too. What can I say. My girl has standards.

I stand infront of my full length mirror and drop my towel. Looking at myself my mind starts to drift to those dark places, questioning myself, my looks, my body.

Nope! Don't go there! I shake my head looking away, metaphorically straighten my crown and continue getting dressed.

5 minutes til the uber gets here and I'm dressed sitting on my bed watching the door.

Watch this, start the countdown, 5, 4, 3, 2, aaand 1, my door flies open, almost bouncing off the wall behind it. Estelle glancing around my room and sees me sitting on my bed watching her with a smirk.

She smirks back in knowing.

"OK, very funny biatch! Let's go!" She says grabbing my hand pulling me out the door to the front of our units to wait for the Uber.

As the Uber pulls up the the mall and Es finishes telling him why he should be on-time, poor guy was 3minutes late because of a breakdown one street over from us, she shuts the uber door and he takes off as fast as he can. She rolls her eyes grabbing my arm and pulling us towards the mall, "my lovely, I know you're hot and gorgeous and got all the goods", eyeing and gesturing to my chest,"but today, we're going to find you a dress and heels to absolutely Rock it!"

"What about you?" I ask already knowing rhe answer. No joke, this girl has so many clothes her wardrobe has somehow started spilling into mine.

Laughing she says "of course me too my love! I can't have you being the only foxy diamond to shine tonight!" Ha ha. And there it is...no. No we cannot...
