" Love sees sharply, hatred sees even more sharp, but jealousy is the sharpest for it is love and hate at the same time." Arab proverb.
She ditched me. I can't believe it. I was actually looking forward to it. I look so pathetic right now, like a fool. I didn't even bother to ask her why. Why should I, if she doesn't care neither do I.
My phone buzzed, it was Hanna again calling me to hang out for the fifth time.
I stood next to the window as the network is better there.
"Hannah how many times should I..."
My voice trailed off as I saw Amnesty get into Shane's car. She stood me up for him. I feel so enraged, so annoyed and more than anything betrayed. I hate myself for feeling this way. I shouldn't have let her have this control over me and my emotions in the first place.
"Reeve hello...you there?" Hanna's high pitched voice got me back to reality.
"Hanna, you know what I will be there."
.
Kol is late as always to rescue me from these flock of girls. All sticking themselves to my sides, wearing unbelievable amounts of perfume, fueling the headache which I initially acquired from Amnesty.
Is this the life I was used to living, it feels like I have never lived like this. I want to get away from here as soon as possible. Perhaps what Kol was saying was right, a straight-forward lifestyle isn't for people like us. We shouldn't get the taste of it, otherwise we will get addicted to it.
"Girls, would you please make some space for me?" Hanna said with a cold smile and glaring eyes.
One look from her and the girls shift to the other side of the sofa.
Hanna knows her game. She might look like an airhead, but she is capable of running the Walker groups. She has been with me for as long as I can remember. She gets everything that she aims for, by hook or crook. Her and I haven't actually ever aimed for the same thing but I am aware of her deeds.
"Reeve, who do you think is going to be the council president?" she asks.
"Not sure, it's not like i -."
" Reeve isn't that Amnesty, or whatever i ............"
I couldn't hear anything Hannah said after that. My eyes just focused on the most beautiful girl in the bar sitting 20 feet away from me. Her long gorgeous hair as carefree as her, swayed from left to right as she tired what it seemed like was, enacting an incident. Then she let out a loud hysterical laugh which was so bright, not caring about the others around her.
" she has a sexy figure."
I snapped to look at who made the comment, it was Kol. We were the only ones at the table. When did he come and rest leave.
"You seemed like you were enjoying your view, so I thought it's better for the rest to leave. So yea where was I... her figure ."
" Don't say another word if you like your jaw."
He doesn't have to tell me that I know very well that she has a good figure, that would be tempting to any eyes. Even in her ten times larger clothes she is irresistible. It took every fibre of my being to control myself after the kiss we had shared. Thankfully the tantrum she threw and the kicks later on calmed me alot. Right now it's just Kol, I know that he is just saying to make fun of me but I am aware that she would be getting the same looks from many other people in this bar right now. Why did she change her usual style? it's not that she can't wear what she feels like, just that I don't like the idea of people looking at her in a way they are not supposed to.
Is this For what she ditched me, is this the stuff she wanted to take care of. My eyes moved to the company she was sitting with, which I was subconsciously ignoring until now.
A guy who seemed like our age and Shane.
Shane and some random dude over me. The guy is probably irrelevant because I would have known if he was someone important.
" Who is that guy?"
"I have no idea I am seeing him for the first time myself, but from the way it is it feels like they are on a date most probably set up by Shane." Kol responded.
I didn't want to listen anymore, more like I couldn't, my brain was clouded with anger.
Kol call Hanna.
"Reeve don't do something stupid that you will regret."
"Have you ever seen me do anything stupid just call Hannah and leave."
Hanna sat next to me and judging from her sitting position I could sense what she was going for next. She turns my face towards her, breaking my focus from Amnesty.
"I heard you were looking for me." She said in a low deep voice.
I am Reeve Ray and that's how I am supposed to be, not give a fuck about such things. Anything. She can date anyone the fuck she wants to. I really don't give a damn.
Emotionlessly I start sucking the Living hell out of hannas lips.
Somehow I could sense Amnesty's eyes on me even though I couldn't see her. Good she should know that she has no control over me whatsoever.
I break the kiss, or whatever the hell we were doing.
"Reevy so wild, do you want to take this somewhere more private." she proposes in her usual sugar coated hanna voice.
My eyes straight up meet kol. I didn't want to look at Amnesty's eyes yet, because today either I am supposed to get hurt or she is. If she doesn't have a pained look in her eyes then I am going to be in pain. Even if after seeing me kiss another girl like this, she couldnt care less then what the fuck was i when struggling with all this time.
I looked at Kol instead and it seemed like he was waiting to get my attention too. He straight away motioned me to look in the direction where the most beautiful girl in the room was sitting and I turned my head towards her.
She was drinking. What the hell. She was sitting alone with that random dude and drinking alcohol like its water. How the fuck did shane dare to leave her alone drinking with some random dude at a club, at a place she knows no one.
I didn't have to think. I stood up and walked straight towards her direction. She saw me coming and started drinking even faster.
" What the hell do you think you are doing?"
" Has it got anything to do with you Ray." her eyes were cold, colder than ice. A look I wasn't aware she was capable of producing.
"This was what you had to take care of, drinking a bar with a stranger."
"Again how is this your business and please meet Sam. There he isn't a stranger anymore"
"You are coming with me."
" Excuse me please leave, she isn't comfortable with your presence." I could break this guy down beyond repair. She isn't comfortable with me. He knows nothing. I didn't waste my breath and grabbed Amnesty by her wrist.
" What do you think you are doing?" He speaks again.
" Amnesty if you don't want your friend here to get embarrassed, let's go."
" Sam, I am fine. I will call shane later."
We walked out of the bar.
