Chapter 16 | The Kiss

I had wanted to take back what I had said about enjoying myself so badly now. As we walked into the large white house I knew what lied ahead and wether I liked it or not I knew it was gonna be a long night.

Those cliche red cups which they showed in then movies were being handed around which contained a liquid which which was supposedly alcohol.

"Why don't you stay here while I got get us something to drink." Jace asked his hand on my shoulder. I think he understood the uneasy feeling I was going through.

He walked of as I saw Ashton advance towards me. He had that blinding smile on again. The smile I was supposed to fall for if I was normal.

Please help me.

I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole just so that I wouldn't interact with that thing.

"I'm so glad you could make it tonight, the party would have been incomplete without you here."

I wonder if Ashton even knew my name or he was just being him and was flirting with a random girl.

"Kira why don't I get you something, maybe some vine or champagne." he said with a wink.

Dude stop acting like you're so nice before I punch a hole through that pretty face of yours.

Conscience: Take the god damn drink if you know what's good for you.

Me: No, I'm good thanks, besides I'm going through my rebellious phase and I'm in the mood of defying myself just to keep things fresh.

Conscience: I'm telling you to do the right thing or die.

Me: I'd rather die.

So I did what I thought the right thing was, I refused.

"No I'm good but thanks for asking."

The odds weren't in my favor today as Effie Trinket would say. Some drunk guy had vomited all over the floor which caused the sissy girls to scream and push.

So naturally being me I fell, and guess who was there to catch me.

Yep you guessed right, It was pretty boy. My body was hugged so tightly to his that all the rules my dad had made where broken.

Ashton's hand was somewhat on my back somewhat on my ass, holding me up in an upright position. Honestly, I wanted to fall rather than being held by him.

Where was Jace when you needed him.

I think Ashton thought I was like the rest of his toys and liked the position he put me in. So he was being him and slowly trying to close the gap between us.

"Hey there buddy sorry to disturb what you're in the middle of right now but I'd really like my girlfriend back."

For once the gods had listened to my prayers and there stood Jace, my make believe boyfriend smirking his way to glory and enjoying the discomfort I was in.

"She's your girlfriend." He looked shocked. Well duh, who wouldn't be.

"This is the part where you apologize and let Kira go. Then you walk of like the good boy you shall never be." Jace teased.
