I came out after my shower to see the clothes she picked out for me on the bed, it was a cute black leather short skirt that had a little slit by the side along with a white tank top and a cute black crop jacket, i quickly wore the clothes then brushed my hair cause i didn’t plan on packing it then i applied my eye mascara lined my lips and applied lipgloss, i then went ahead to wear my black heels cause i know how good my legs look in them.
“Are you ready, Em,” I heard Elena say before she walked in, “you look so hot, i will kill to have legs like yours, I bet Max won’t be able to keep his eyes off you tonight,” she said, teasingly.
“Oh stop it, I am sure he won’t care,” I said,trying to ignore the instant joy that came at the thought of just seeing him again. ”You look so good too, oh my gosh,” I said, noticing her outfit she had on a red body con strapless gown that stopped below her hips, pairing it with red heels and her hair in a high ponytail.
”I wonder what Ethan will think when he sees you,” I said, smirking at her because she probably thought I didn't notice how they kept looking at each other.
“Em, i didn’t even know you noticed, he is so hot and i always get this intense pull towards him when he is near,” she said, blushing like crazy. How I wish I could be this open about how I felt towards Max, I thought. ”Awwwn, i am so happy for you sis,” i said, genuinely happy for her because it also looked like Ethan feels the exact same way about her.
“Thank you, it looks like they are here already,” she said, looking at her phone.
We quickly went downstairs, I scribbled on some words on a paper to inform our parents where we were when they got home, and then locked the door. Outside the house was a black matte car that looked very expensive and by one of the windows was Damon waving at us.
“Guys, over here,” Damon called out, to which Ethan slapped his head and said “I am sure they know dude.”
Laughing at the exchange between the boys, we got to the car and I immediately noticed Max wasn’t here. “Where is Max?” I asked the two physically available boys, but got a response from just Damon, as the other one seemed to be lost, just staring at a blushing Elena.
“He thought someone wasn’t going to the party, so he didn’t bother coming along,” Damon said, looking directly at me. So he didn’t come because I said I wasn't. I thought to myself, feeling overwhelmed.
We got to the party destination after 10 mins of driving, it was already filled with people everywhere, some dancing, smoking, making out, you can name the rest.
“She is coming,” said Elena, with evident disgust.
“Hey guys, so glad you could make it, where is Max?” she asked, looking around, “He didn’t come,” Damon replied, ”I was really anticipating a good time with him,” She said, which instantly made me very angry and jealous at the fact that she was thinking about him in such a way.
“Guys, I am going to get a drink from the kitchen, excuse me,” I said, not wanting to hear any more of what she had to say before I actually lost control of myself and hit her. Wow, where did such a thought come from? I was never a violent person. I guess it’s Max's effect on me.
I got to the kitchen wanting to just have a coke or fruit juice, but then decided to just loosen up and take a few alcohol infused drink. After taking the first cup, it was surprisingly sweet and I thought it probably didn’t contain much alcohol, since it was still really sweet and with that I took four more cups,b then held the last one in my hand as I left the kitchen.
“Hey pretty girl,” someone said to me, making me look up at the stranger. He was really hot and built but can’t be compared to Max, why am I suddenly comparing him to Max in the first place, I thought.
“Hi,” i replied, “I would love to dance with you if you don’t mind,” he asked politely, “of course,” i replied confidently, where the confidence came from? I don’t know either, it’s probably the alcohol kicking in.
He took me to the dance floor, placed his hand on my waist and mine on his shoulder, the music suddenly changed and I started to let loose, I started grinding on him as we danced, the alcohol was definitely doing its thing. Suddenly, my eyes locked on someone in the crowd and it was Max.
If looks could kill, the guy I was dancing with would be gone. As he got closer, I realised his eye colour was really dark and he was fuming with anger. When he got close enough, he yanked me away from the stranger’s arm.
“Dude, what is your problem?” The guy asked Max.
“Are you talking to me?” Max responded with the most deadliest glare
“Um, sorry bro, I don’t want any trouble, didn’t know she was your girl,” he said, raising his hands up in defeat as he walked away.
Max then dragged me out of the house, on our way out we spotted Regina, “Hey handsome, I thought you wouldn’t show up,” she said to him, but he completely ignored her, and she glared at me while I gave her a sweet fake smile.
We left the house and he immediately pushed me against the wall with his face in between my neck and inhaled my scent deeply, which made me feel warm inside and sent crazy sparks up my spine.
“You are mine,” He said, pulling my body against his in a tight hug, “I can’t bear the sight of someone else touching you, I am the only person allowed to do that, no one else just me, I wanted to rip his head out when I saw his hand on what is mine,” he kept on going, meanwhile my body was reacting like crazy to his touch, my heart was beating so fast and loud because of his words.
“Emily,where are you,” I heard Elena call out, that seemed to break me from the trance I was in.
“I am here,” I shouted back, moving away from Max, and he looked hurt that I moved away, but as soon as I saw the emotion on his face it was gone.
Elena, Ethan and Damon appeared. “Hey Max,” Elena greeted him, to which he responded with a nod. “We have been looking everywhere for you,” she said, looking at me, “I was on the dance floor,” i replied, feeling a bit embarrassed now that the alcohol has cleared a little.
“You were dancing?” Elena asked, “she was doing more than that,” Max replied, gritting his teeth, making me feel more embarrassed.
“I thought you said Max wasn’t coming,” Elena asked, facing Damon, “well. I texted him that Emily was here, I guess that changed his mind,” He replied, smiling proudly.
“Well let’s get back to the party,” said Ethan, and I noticed how he held Elena’s waist as they went in with Damon behind them. As I was about to follow them back inside, Max stopped me by holding my hand.
