XAVIER'S PRECIOUS ✔ {Editing In Process}

Oh my God.

Erica P.O.V

I have come to the conclusion that my life loves playing with me. Why must everything in my life be so complicated and render me embarrassed? My life sucks. And right now, my life is practically laughing in my face.

"Why don't you guys go upstairs? There's a vacant room for you to-"

"Mom!" Xavier hissed. His romantic mood was long gone, now replaced by anger.

"Oh sorry for being considerate." Alison chuckled. Xavier just rolled his eyes and walked away from me with Alison doing the same. They both left me here, alone and humiliated. Why did Xavier leave me alone? Was he ashamed in introducing me to his dad? Am I not rich or pretty enough? What would his dad think of me? A whore? A slut? After all, I was just another woman going after his son's money. He would hate me, and right now I can't help but hate myself too.

I should have never come here in the first place. This was indeed the biggest mistake of my life. I've embarrassed myself enough for today and it is time for me to leave before I humiliate myself further. What was I thinking? I could never be accepted in their society. I turned on my heels leaving the balcony and made my way to the exit door. I don't want anyone to notice me, only for them to insist that I stay a little longer because I really don't want to. I just want to go home and cry. I marched to the main door and without waiting for a worker to open it, I opened it myself welcoming a strong gush of the wind to hit me, making me shiver.

I stepped outside the house, looking for a car because a taxi would not be available at this time.

"Party over so soon?" I turned around to find Sebastian leaning against his car smoking a cigarette.

"Yup, I got a call from my mom and I have to go back. It's really urgent, can you take me home? Please" I lied. He looked at me sceptically but still nodded.

"Hop on," He spoke whilst crushing the cigarette under his feet.

"Thanks." And with that, I got in the car and closed my door with Sebastian doing the same. We drove in silence for about half an hour until my phone started to ring. I looked at it and saw that Xavier was calling. Shit! What should I do now? I don't want him to know that I'm heading back home, hell I don't even want to talk to him. I placed the phone onto the seat and chose to ignore it, but Xavier had other plans. He called me again but I still didn't pick up. So he called again and again. And again. And again.

"Aren't you going to pick up the damn phone?" Sebastian spoke with irritation clear in his voice. I didn't answer, instead, I switched off my phone making him sigh.

''What's wrong?" Sebastian asked me in a low voice but his eyes remained on the road. I don't know if I should tell him anything, he's rude, arrogant and something about him screams trouble.

''No. I'm just worried about the call I got from my mother,'' I lied. He just nodded and didn't ask any more questions. After a while, we reached my house. I got out as soon as possible and walked straight to the front door ignoring the goodbye Sebastian yelled from behind.

I opened my door and got inside. I was angry that today had been ruined, this evening was supposed to be entertaining, it was supposed to be a normal happy day! But no, not in the life of Erica where everything always goes wrong. I made my way towards my small room, I tossed the phone on my bed and went into the bathroom to take a well-deserved hot shower. After that, I made my way towards my bed getting ready for a nap. I was already dreading tomorrow, I had to go back to work which meant facing Xavier. I was so not ready to have that conversation.

I closed my eyes and as sleep slowly started taking over me I suddenly heard a bang! I shot up from my bed and tensed, trying to hear where the noise was coming from.
