Craving him: The beginning of us

17- Party Night

Arielle

October 12,2020

Dinner didn't go to plan. After what happened in bed and almost getting caught the night seemed to get worse. First Blaine's dad refused to eat dinner with us as long as I was in the house and stayed in his study.I felt bad for Angela Blaine's mother that she had to deal with him. Angela was loving and sweet nothing like Elijah old and grouchy.

The way Blaine looked at his father with so much hatred for him.

Riley distracts me from my thoughts and I sit up "do you want to go a party?" She's smiling but still with a serious face.

"Yeah because that worked out so well before. A party is what got me into this mess" I say sarcastically.

She sits on my bed and holds up hand "No your feelings for Blaine is got you into this mess. Not the party" she teases. She's not wrong I just wish things could've been different.

I wondered if I should tell her Blaine told me he loved me. She would probably say it was one of those things that men say to get into your pants. But when I looked into his eyes I saw it.

"Okay I'll go but don't let me do anything stupid and make sure I'm drunk" she lets go of my hands and clap her hands together excited. I never seen her this excited makes me kind of nervous.

I haven't seen Blaine since yesterday he hasn't even bothered to come to the house like he does. I felt bad for him, having a father like that can drive you insane.

Like she can read my thought she says "has he texted you?. Are you still sleeping with him?"

"Elle" she yells at me.

"No,I'm not sleeping with Blaine anymore I'm just worried about him" I lied. I just lied to my best friend she's going to be so angry at me.

Anthony comes into my room as we get ready for the party he looks at Riley up and down. She turns around and he stares at her ass "Are you going somewhere?".

I respond "Riley and I are going to her house for a sleepover" I lied. He looks over at Riley who is putting earring on. But he didn't question it and left. "What was that all about?".

We made our way to the car my red dress moving everywhere with the wind. I held it down with my hands as I got into the car. Riley played our playlist and we sang the songs together. I wondered why my brother has taken interest in Riley. I mean she was pretty with her blond hair and perfect skin she was everything other girls wanted to be. Even right now with a full face of make up it didn't change anything more made her more beautiful.

Riley looks over at me and turns down the music she's concerned "Are you okay Elle?". I hadn't realized she was talking to me. I was lost in thought.

"Yeah, I'm fine Riley too much to think about lately" I put a pretend smile on my face.

We reach the house, It's like 10 feet Fall mansion. I look up at it in awe. The outside has a 4 pillars holding up a roof that I guessed was for when it rained. The house was white like the White House. The house looked like it was built in like the 70's.

I walked in to the house there was a bunch of people I didn't know. I looked around the room I caught a boy give a glance then awkwardly look away. I headed for the kitchen to get some alcohol in me before I can do something stupid. The house was like a maze with a lot of doors and hallway with pictures of women naked but covered with paint.

I found the kitchen the guy who glanced at me was in there. He was taller than me obvious buff, maybe an athlete not sure. His eyes blue like the ocean a little smirk rises from his lips. "I don't think I know you?".

"I'm Arielle and I'm sure you don't know me I'm not in college. I just came here to forget all my problems" I say.

"Well Arielle lets drink to forgetting your problems" our glass click together as I pour the drink into my mouth. "Would you like to dance?" he holds his hand out to me.

We make our way to the dance floor Riley's already dancing with a guy. She winks at me and continues. "I'm Francis" when I turn back to him.

His hands are on my waist my back on him as I am dancing behind him. I let the music flow through me. He whispers into my ear "having fun yet?".

I turn towards him as slow Spanish music starts playing he grabs my hands and starts dancing it well "wow I didn't peg you for a dancer".

He spins me into him "I was in a lot of sweet 15's" he comments. He was a really nice and sweet guy I was hoping I didn't mess it up.

Riley came up to me "excuse us for a second" and took me into the hallway. At this point I had so much alcohol my body was like 90 percent alcohol. "Do you like this guy?",

I blush "yeah he's nice and so sweet. They don't make guys like that anymore". She nods when she sees the guy she's was dancing with come looking for her she went back.

I went back to Mr perfect he says "is she okay?".

"Yeah she's fine. I just want to keep her in eyeshot just in case" I say.

We danced all night to the music he made me laugh and forget about all my trouble that is until.

"Arielle" a name calls out I look over to find Blaine. He comes running up to us when he realizes I'm drunk but I'm barely coherent. "What did you do to her?. Did you drug her?" he yells at Francis.

I trip into Blaine arms  I hold on to him to get myself to stand up straight "He didn't drug me I got drunk all by myself. Stop yelling at him like he did something wrong".

"He allowed you to get drunk probably so he would sleep with you. Look at your dress your boobs pop right out". Now everyone's staring at us but he doesn't stop there he runs in front of Francis "you don't you touch her, you hear me?" I pull on his arm to yank him back.

When that doesn't work I go in front of them "listen you can't tell me what to do okay, we are not together. Neither could you tell him what to do".

"We're leaving Elle" he picks me up around his shoulder and takes me outside. Just like the first time.

He locks the door "what we're you thinking Elle?. You could have been hurt or worse".

"I was thinking I needed a break from all the drama in my life. To have one night where I didn't have to worry about everyone else. It's all I do, I worry about you,I worry about school I worry about Anthony".

He stops me "you worry about me?"  He asked softly. His voice changed to a little baby voice.

I turn to him "of course I do Blaine. I always have". I turn to him he's looking out the window. I touch his hand he pulls away. "Why make a big scene of your just going to act like this?".

"I can't see you with someone else it... I can't explain it Elle. Just thinking about him touching you is burning into my mind".

I touch his chest he looks down at it but doesn't try to remove it. "Blaine I can't do this with you. You don't want me be with me but you don't want anyone else to be with me. Choose a-" before I could finish he holds my neck and brings his face for a kiss.

He kissed me the sexually tense ringing in the air above us. He stops and looks in my eyes "go on a date with me tomorrow?".
