Me, Him, Us

Chapter 8

After hours and hours of getting glammed up Jennifer and I were finally ready. She was wearing a wrap around black glittery dress, that had a low back and the dress stopped mid thigh, she was wearing her thigh high boots and all I can say is yeah I’d f**k her. I was wearing a tight bodycon neon green dress that was off shoulder, and also stopped mid thigh but I wore simple black heels that probably won’t make it for the whole night so I’ll pack extra flat shoes. I left the room after Jennifer cause I needed to spray perfume because smelling good is so important to me, as I come down the stairs I here laughing and music from the living room, I enter and see everyone dancing and drinking, wow they didn’t even wait for me? 

“Can’t believe you guys started drinking without me!” I say as I enter, they turn and I look at Donnie who is also looking at me and also looking extra cute in his black skinny jeans and plain white top outfit that I picked for him 

“Sorry darling you were taking really long” says Donnie while offering me his cup “have a sip, if you like it I’ll make you your own cup” I take it and sip it, immediately pulling a face 

“Inject it into my veins!” I laugh 

I join they’re little circle standing between Donnie and Jennifer 

“Guys I’m really glad your clothes fit, I was worried they’d be too small, or big” I say while lining up the shot glasses 

“Don’t worry, they fit perfect” says Ryan 

“Well let’s get this party started” says Donnie as we all toast before taking shots. 

As we party I hear the house phone ring and run to answer it 

“Hello Miss Isabella, your limo is ready” says a male voice 

“Okay, we’re on the way” I drop the phone 

“Guys the car is here, go grab ID, use the bathroom, and grab jackets except us Jennifer because you know “ I say 

Ryan looks confused “why aren’t you bringing jackets?” 

“Because hoes don’t get cold, and because they expect to wear ours so we freeze” says Donnie

“I’m so glad we’ve trained you properly” I say while tapping his cheek 

“Come on let’s get going guys”I say while holding the door open for everyone 

We get into the elevator and arrive on the ground floor, and it’s packed with people, but Donnie and Ryan walk ahead and clear a path for us. 

We leave the hotel and see a long white, hummer stretch limo parked there with a man holding the door open for us. 

We all enter and see disco lights and drinks in the mini fridge. I slid in and sit next to Donnie while Jennifer and Ryan sit on the opposite side, the whole time to the club we just sing and dance to the music playing and obviously taking loads of videos for i********:. 

We arrive at the club and don’t even wait at the entrance we’re immediately ushered in towards VIP, but it’s clear the club is full already. 

Wizkid is playing and everyone is dancing they’re hearts out, we arrive at our table In VIP and we already have a bucket with a jack Daniels bottle with coke cans as well, tonight’s going to a good night. 

I pull Jennifer with me to the bathroom, just for a touch up 

“You and Ryan have been looking pretty cozy the whole day” I say to her as I put on my lipgloss 

“I won’t even lie I’ve always had a crush on Ryan, but it’s weird cause he and Donnie are friends and Donnie is my cousin so it feels weird” she replies 

“Girl I’ll help you out tonight, I’ll keep Donnie distracted so you can make moves on Ryan okay?” I say while facing her 

“Thank you so much but I’m so scared because what if he rejects me?” 

“Oh please that boy has a huge crush on you! I’ve seen how he looks at you “ 

“Really? Okay I think I’m ready” we exit the bathroom and head back to the table. 

I take Donnie with me to get more shots and at this point I knew I was gone, I was dancing like some sort of stripper and my dress kept riding up but Donnie kept fixing it so I’m thankful for him and Ryan and Jennifer disappeared ages ago so I hope that’s a good sign. 

The Dj plays work by Rihanna and Drake, and I don’t know what beast controlled me to push Donnie down onto the couch and proceed to give him a lap dance but atleast he didn’t push me away because he grabbed my hips and even starting moving with me. 

Bella what the f**k are you doing? You’re grinding on Donnie and you’re actually ….enjoying it. After the song ends he stands up and pulls my body even closer to his, which I didn’t realize was possible, 

In my mind by Dynoro and Gigi starts playing and all of a sudden, Donnie is breathing on my neck from behind and starts kissing my neck 

OMG what is that feeling between my legs, is that a heartbeat? Am I having a v****a heart attack right now just from neck kisses? His hands start to slowly move up my waist to turn me around so I’m facing him, and in that moment it was like nothing existed but us. I could barely hear the music, or see the people in the club. All I heard and saw was him, looking into his eyes I didn’t know if it was me or the alcohol but I couldn’t breathe. Slowly we moved closer and closer until there was no space between us, and when his lips touched mine, I felt like I was in heaven. Our lips moved against each other in the slowest most loving ways that I didn’t know it was possible for me to even kiss someone like this, he was a drug and I was addicted. His hands were moving around until they settled on my ass, and if I didn’t think he was perfect he was definitely mind blowing when he squeezed my ass, the way a real man holds his girls ass. Eventually we pulled apart cause we heard someone scream 

“Why are you kissing your cousin ?” I followed the voice and saw Jennifer standing there, looking confused and angry with and shocked Ryan behind her. 

“What did you just say?” I look at her 

“Why are you kissing your cousin” she screams louder this time, so people around us stop and stare 

“Woah woah Donnie is not my cousin, he is yours so I’d appreciate it if you stopped screaming that. People are looking !” I chase after her when she runs 

“Jennifer let me explain” 

“Explain what? You just kissed Donnie!” 

“Okay well yeah but it just happened, okay I had no control over that situation” 

“You know what let’s just enjoy the rest of our night because this will be funny tomorrow” 

“Okay fine, but tell me did you kiss Ryan?” 

“Nope my lips are sealed you cousin stealer!” I laugh loudly 

We get back to VIP and see the guys talking, Jennifer goes up to Ryan while I walk to Donnie, grab his hand and walk towards the dance floor of the regular section 

I turn around and look at him and see that look on his face again but instead of giving in, I decide to tease him a bit.

I grab his hand and wrap it around me, so it’s body to body. I pull his face closer and keep my lips close to his but not close enough to kiss. 

Whenever he tries to move forward to kiss me I move back and bite my lip 

“Stop teasing me”he growls, gosh I’ve never seen him so animalistic before but it’s definitely a panty dropper 

He’s hands grab my ass again making me gasp, and he uses that moment to kiss me and honestly I don’t even remember anything after that, all I know is my soul was snatched that night 

I’d be lying if I said I knew what happened for the rest of the night because I don’t, all I know is I definitely didn’t leave Donnies side the rest of the might and we got McDs on the way back home. All I know is when I woke up the next day I was cuddling with Donnie. I open my eyes slowly because of the blinding light and cover my face with my hand to block the sunlight, I don’t even want to know what sort of monster I look like right now. As I begin to start stretching my arms I hear a groan next to me, I turn my head and find Donnie sleeping like a bay next to me and that’s when the memories from last night come back to me. OMG I kissed Donnie! What the hell happened? I mean he was a great kisser, definitely the best I’ve ever kissed in my life! I mean there was this rough, animalistic way he held me that turned me on in ways I didn’t realize were  possible. I slowly life his arm that was holding my waist and tipped toed into the bathroom, sleeping with make up is never a good idea. As I look at myself in the mirror I’m surprised to find that almost all my make up is off. Maybe I washed my face when I got in yesterday? I shrug the thought away, while giving myself a pat on the back. I start removing my clothes and prepare to get into the shower while replaying as much as I can remember from yesterday. Honestly no one could’ve anticipated Donnie and I hooking up, but now that it’s happened I can’t seem to stop thinking of him. I don’t know if it’s because I had a boyfriend or because he’s Jennifer’s cousin but I never thought of Donnie more than just…..Donnie, but last night I can’t even describe it. I touched my lips with my hands, realizing that just hours before they were captured by Donnies and how badly I wish I could go back in time and live that moment again, because it felt like a dream. 

I shake my head when I realize I’ve been in the shower for almost 10 minutes and I haven’t even done anything, god dammit Donnie! How dare you have this much of an effect on me. I start properly washing my body, face and hair because I realize I’ve been dreading leaving the shower because I have to talk to Donnie. What on earth do I even say to him? I get out the shower, dry myself and start using my favorite scented lotion. When I’m finished I look at myself in the mirror 

‘You’ve got this girl, just go out there and talk to him! It’s Donnie, he doesn’t bite’ I give myself a quick pep talk before I open the door and enter the bedroom, to find him sitting up going through his phone 

“Hey, how are you?” I say trying to get his attention, he looks up from his phone and smiles at me 

“I’m good, you? After all the drinking we did yesterday I’m surprised you’re still standing” he laughs

“Hey! I’ve gotten much better at handling my alcohol now “ I say with an attitude 

“Calm down princess, come sit here we need to talk” oh god, I’m practically shitting myself right now. 

He sighs “about last night..” 

“Yeah last night was crazy right?” 

“Bell, last night shouldn’t have happened. I really do value our friendship more than anything and I hate for that to be ruined because of some lust” 

So I obviously have never been hit by a car before, but in that moment it felt like I was being hit over and over again as I replayed his words in my head. 

PLAY IT COOL BELLA 

“Yeah that’s exactly what I was going to say. I mean Jennifer is my best friend. Us being together would just complicate things” I say while trying to smile at him

He got up and came to hug me 

“I’m so glad you agree, anyways let me go shower. I’ll see you downstairs for breakfast” he says as he pulls away from the hug 

“Yeah I need to get to my room and change, I can’t walk around in a towel all day” I say while moving towards the door. 

I’m so stupid, of course Donnie doesn’t like me. Howard didn’t even like me, why did I think anyone else would. I enter my room and start crying as soon as I close the door, I’m really pathetic.
