'’There is no way I will do this, it's crazy'’
'’I thought you were my best friend'’
‘'I am Paola, but it's crazy to go out tonight, jumping from balcony to balcony? No, no it's risky'’
'’Is it risky or are you afraid to wait for me out of the house?'’
'’I am gonna get in trouble if we get busted, you know your mother will call mine'’
'’See the bright side then, we will be both grounded'’
'’But I don't wanna be grounded'’
'’At 10 I will be outside the Maddison's house, I expect to find you there'’
She was looking at her watch, it was 21.30 p.m. and her mother still didn't come to check on her, so far the plan was not going as expected.
'’I brought you something to eat Paolita'’
‘'I don't want anything to eat'’
'’You made your mother very sad'’
‘'Where is she?'’
'’She went out, she said she will not be late'’
'’I will not be late either'’
‘'You know what your mother said Paolita, you are grounded'’
'’She won’t realize I left, I will come back very fast'’
'’I can't let you go, you need to understand that your mother puts the rules not me'’
'’I will get ready because Bailey is coming soon, I promise that I will be back on time, please Nana’'
She hugged her very tight, she knew the way to make her say yes to everything, even the most crazy things she was doing.
‘'Change of plans, you can pick me up from the front gate'’
'’Am on my way there, you made up with your mother?'’
‘'Just come will you?'’
Half an hour later, they were in Bailey's car
‘'Stop shaking'’
'’I have a bad feeling'’
‘'We will not get caught, we will be back on time, stop being negative'’
'’He will be there, don't do something stupid'’
'’Stupid? No..'’
'’You will do something, I knew I shouldn't take you with me'’
'’Just stop and park on your right side, it's already packed in here'’
They entered the bar and of course Jessica was there, all over Matthew as usual, ‘Just concentrate Paola’ she said to herself.
‘'I thought you are grounded'’ he said loud enough for their classmates to turn and soon after to start commenting about her.
'’You thought wrong'’
'’What happened babe?'’
'’Your friend told my mother that I am smoking'’
'’Actually that's not the way it happened'’ said Matthew with the most innocent face
‘'I know Matthew, you didn't mean to tell her, it was just a mistake'’ without letting him to reply she continued '’For sure it was by mistake because Matthew likes you and supports our group to the maximum'’
‘'Jessica just let them arrange this between them'’
'’There is nothing to arrange, we are here to drink and have fun'’ Paola said without taking her eyes from his eyes, she was feeling so much anger inside her, but she decided not to release it, not now, not this way, they all got their drinks and danced to the rhythm of the music.
‘'Give me your car key'’
‘'What? Speak louder'’
'’Giiive mee your caar keeyy'’
'’Whyyy?'’
‘'Just giive iiit to mee’'
‘'It's in myyy pursee'’
Bailey lost Paola from her sight for a while, she was still dancing but at the same time looking for her, Jessica didn't even notice, she was very busy hugging Matthew who was feeling awkward and anyone could tell that, he was not interested for her in that way but his behavior still wouldn't make her understand that he was seeing her as a friend and nothing more than that.
‘'Where have you been, why did you need my car keys?'’
'’Come with me'’ She dragged her to the toilet so that she could hear her.
‘'I need you to keep Jessica away for a while'’
‘'Why?'’
'’Just do it and don't ask'’
‘'Am not doing it if you don't tell me what you are planning to do'’
‘'I want to talk to Matthew and with her around him is not possible'’
'’No, I am not going to help you'’
‘'I give you my word, I will not fight with him'’
‘'You are planning something bigger, I know it'’
'’Just help me Bailey, please... please'’
'’Ah...ok'’
As soon as she saw Jessica and Bailey walking towards the toilet, she went behind Matthew, she leaned to his ear while still dancing and told him to follow her outside.
‘'Are you planning to kill me?'’ his breath on her ear passed her like electricity, but she knew she had to concentrate on what she wanted to do, no distractions.
'’Are you afraid of me?'’
'’Is the lion afraid of the mouse?'’
'’You are funny'’ she looked him in the eyes and got his hand in her hand pulling him to follow her
‘'Where are we going?'’
'Outside... Lion'
‘'What do you want?'’
'’I want you'’ she said and pulled his head down to her mouth sucking his lips as if she wanted to detach them from his face, he tried to set free from her hands being very confused on what was happening, but then he gave in as well, he put his hands around her waist and he was pulling her more and more on him. She smelled like vanilla mixed with coconut, her lips were soft and juicy, her light moan made his kiss to be more demanding.
'’My car is 10 meters away from here'’ he said breathlessly while he was still holding her waist and had his lips very close to her
‘'I know'’ she said and pulled him again in a long deep kiss, she got his hands and put them on her butt while hers went back to his hair, pulling them while her tongue was invading his mouth until the lights of a cab fell on them
'’Let's get in my car baby'’
'’Actually, I have to go'’
‘'Now?'’
‘'Yes, this is my taxi'’
‘'You don't need the taxi, I will take you home'’ he leaned again to kiss her and she pushed back softly smiling at him giving him the keys of Bailey.
'’Please give this to Bailey, I don't need it anymore’' she closed the door of the Taxi
‘'Wait, Paola... wait... I don't understand'’
‘'Look in your left, where the lights of the taxi are pointing'’
'’What the hell have you done woman?'’
‘'Do not f*****g mess with me... Lion'’
The lights of the taxi faded, but still he could see the huge word that Paola engraved on his car with Bailey's keys ' A S S H O L E'
