Aiden walked into the penthouse where he had to have fun with his friends. The exterior building was painted white. Two carvings of a lion were placed at the two ends of the entrance. He stepped into the building which held a dark aura. The paintings which hung on the wall were dull and the interior paint on the wall was somewhat grey and shaddy. His three friends were at the bar drinking and chatting.
“Yoooh bro, what’s up?” Dylan asked as he handed Aiden a glass of whiskey.
“At least let him settle down before you go about asking him questions”, Mark said, clicking his glass with Aiden’s as he sat beside him.
“So tell you bro, did you go on another blind date because that's the only thing that makes you look like that?” Dylan asked as he patted Aidens shoulder. Aiden's sighed and took a sip of his whiskey.
“Well, this one seems different and there’s a lot about her, like she’s the ex of one of my employees”, Aiden said and downed his glass of whiskey in one gulp.
“Yooooooh! "Seriously, that’s messed up, bro” Jude, the last guy, said as his other friends burst into laughter.
“ Who would have thought that Aiden Williams, the sexiest, handsome and richest lawyer in town, would stoop so low to date his employees EX”, Dylan said with sarcasm laughing in between.
“ I’m trying to imagine the headlines Aiden Williams spotted in a hotel with a beautiful lady who seemed to be his employee's ex”, Mark said, laughing his heart out while Aiden and Jude just sat there with blank expressions looking at their friends.
“You guys are nuts, try to act mature guys”, Jude said and took a sip of his whiskey.
“Well, excuse you Jude, we are only trying to lighten the mood here”, Dylan said, laughing in between while Aiden poured himself another glass of whiskey.
“She is different though, fiesty and she matches with my attitude just nahhh this s**t ain’t gonna work out at all. I’ve had a dose of my own medicine”, Aiden said, and downed another glass of whiskey.
“ Soo what do you plan to do with her?” Mark asked, taking a sip of whiskey.
“We decided to fake our relationship since she seemed to be in the same tight corner as me.”
“ Wait what”, Dylan said.
“She’s being pressured into going on dates by her parents and so am I, so the only way to avoid more of that is to pretend we’re dating”, Aiden said with a shrug.
“Not bad” jude said.
“Yeah yeah come on, let’s drink up. I'll be heading back to work soon,” Aiden said as he downed another glass of whiskey.
“ Hold on so soon. "I mean you and jude barely make out time for yourselves just cause you're a lawyer, and he’s a doctor doesn’t mean you have to work yourself to death,” Dylan said mockingly.
“ Dylan’s right. After all, I’m an engineer with thousands of contracts, bro I ain’t working myself to death”, Mark said, patting Aiden shoulder.
“ I’m a pilot bro and i own my own airport. I just got off the plane an hour ago, and I don’t have another flight till tomorrow at 12 pm. All I plan to do now is chill” .
Dylan said as he stood up.
“ Yh you guys, have fun, there are documents I need to sign” Aiden said and got up staggering.
“Not when you're already drunk” Jude mocked, earning a glare from Aiden.
“I'll sober up before I get to the office”, Aiden said, taking out his phone from his pocket.
“Marcus, come over now” he said, and ended the call, then he made his way to the door.
“You see, this is why you’ll forever remain single. "We’re basically of the same age, but I’m married with two kids”, Dylan yelled behind Aiden, earning a middle finger from the staggering man.

“ well don’t blame me sooo spill it girl” Tina said.
“ Well he’s really arrogant like he’s got some nerves” Sophia said through gritted teeth as she closed her palm into a fist.
“ Are you sure you are not the one with the nerves or arrogant attitude?” her friend asked dragging her down to the couch.
“ seriously Tina are we talking about that now??” she asked dryly

Sophia looked closely
“AIDEN!! What happened to him” she asked the other guy.
“He’s drunk mam and his parents won’t let him into the house they said he should go to his girlfriend which basically according to them is you” the guy said."

“Well you can go ahead and drop him on the couch” Sophia said as she made way for the guy."
He gently placed Aiden on the couch and made his way to the door
“ Well thank you miss” the guy said and walked out of the house.
“Well I’m leaving to see ya” Tina said making her way to the door.
“ No Tina hold on......” she was met with a closed door.
She walked over to Aiden who laid wasted on the couch and sat beside him on the couch.
“Ohhhh hello beauty” he said drunkenly as his hand traced her jaw line.
“ You’re useless” she muttered as she tried to stand up but he held her back and pressed her boobs.
“ ohhhh so soft” he muttered So
phia froze on the spot.
“ Aidennnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” she yelled slapping him across the face.
