Chapter 7-My freaking Knight in shinning armour.
I don't have a good history with parties, not that it was where my greatest misfortune called Jason Chums happened but it was the first place I saw him. Bad memories you say.
However on this occasion, am standing in front of my mirror staring at Katniss' and Quinn's achievement, Am currently wearing a black crop top with lace detailing and a black pencil high waist jeans trousers that does wonders to my curves, a Bezinni knee length boots with a 3inch wedge and my makeup is divine and dark as always. Mehn, I really look like a descendant of Aphrodite.
"All the boys are going to drool when they see you Audrey, I never understood why you hate parties so much", Ah my beloved Katniss in action.
" Don't worry Katniss, we are going to make sure she gets a Romeo tonight", chipped in Quinn. Alright 100% not happening.
"Who knows, maybe her Romeo is much closer than she thinks". Katniss winked as she said this." Alright, one more word from you guys and am not going to this party " and that shut them up.
After we were done with dressing and checking our makeup, we head downstairs for what is going to be the longest night of my life. I was supposed to meet with His Royal Badass here but Quinn told me we were to meet him at the party.
Immediately we got to the party, my two backstabbing friends ditched me to mingle with the crowd, Well, at least thank God he hasn't showed up, although am beginning to miss him. Auhh, shut up Audrey.
"Hey beauty, why are you by the bar all alone?", I turn around to see one raven haired boy talking and smiling at me.
" Am not in the mood to talk to losers like you, so you better leave me or get what's coming to ya". I retorted.
" You know I like it when they play hard to get", he smirks and begins to touch me when all of a sudden, I see someone shout,"Get your dirty hands off her man!!",and with that, he punches him and starts to beat him so badly that I pity for the poor guy's nose. After satisfying himself, he stands up and walks over to me,
"Hey, Audrey, are you okay, did he hurt you?". For the first time in forever, I smile and reply him without sarcasm." Yes, thank you so much Aiden" and that was when I took in his look, simple but hot as hell. He laughs as he notices my reply and what am doing "don't worry sleeping beauty, for you to be extremely nice, I guess you are drunk" and that just ruin the moment. Jerk.
I storm out and he calls after me and follows me. I stop midway and turn to address him,
" what is this Aiden, you invite me to this party, only to ditch me and then show up out of nowhere to be my freaking Knight in shining armour, Really dope ". I state without hiding a fact.
He looks crestfallen, okay, not what I expected, he just saved me from a drunk brute and this is how I thank him? Even in the goth in me knows it's wrong," look am sorry, I didn't mean it to come out that way, I was just angry, that's all, once again, thank you", I smile and stretch forth my hands, genuinely this time.
"Its not problem, Aud, I meant no harm, I got caught up that's all. Although, I never believed you could be this calm", he chuckles and I find myself grinning." So friends? ", he asks with a smile." Well, I won't say we are friends but I'll try to be nice to you ". I answer.
" I'll take that as a yes", he smiles and with that we head inside talking and smiling.
Yes, the bad boy and the bad girl.
...
I got home really early that night after Aiden saved me and we had barely become friends. Or let's just say I let down my defenses today for a total stranger. A hot stranger.
After getting out of my clothes and getting into the bathtub for a really hot shower, I pick up my phone and type" thanks once again ", I know it sounds cheesy but hey, this is the start of something new. Before dropping my phone, it beeps
"I know am awesome
you don't need to say it
Sleep tight, sleeping beauty"
I smile to myself, yes, I have him all to myself and nothings changing that. I hope.
