Fatal Attraction

Chapter 76

Khalil POV

"Ill be Lonely forever. Ever"
I finish up the performance and thank the crowd of teenagers; making my way out of the school with guards.

I hop into the black car and Riley greets me with a kiss.

"You sounded great babe."

"You weren't even in there" I mutter.

"Yea but....you still did great" She says in a duh tone.

"So I scheduled for us to walk the red carpet at Beyonce's birthday bash" Riley says looking at her phone.

"Cool" I sigh looking out the window.

J-aye bro cant wait 4 this weekend.

I smile at JB's text.

K- yea me 2

J- we gotta turn up after tho.

K- Fr we haven't rlly chilled in a while.

J-C u this wknd.

"Khalil are you listening!?" Riley snaps

I look at her annoyed.

"I said make sure you pick out something that matches my hot pink dress for this weekend"

"This weekend! Wait no I cant." I shake my head.

"What do you mean cant."Now it was her turn to be annoyed.

"I have a thing this weekend."

"By thing you mean Brice." she folds her arms and I just look out the window.

"Really your ditching Yonce for her?"

"Its important that I go and Im not missing it" I snap

"Well if you miss this party then Im dumping you and having daddy drop you for good.All I'm doing is lookin out for you. yet you do all this. I want to be famous too but I cant do that with out you." She snaps

"So you're just using me."

"Well..."

"You cant be serious." I say

"Its her or your career" Riley turns and looks out the other window.

Brice POV
"You look beautiful OMG" the girls gush at me in my elegant dress.

"I dont understand why I have to dress up." I say

"Its a surprise" Angel smiles fixing my hair.

"He's here!" Blessing smiles coming in.

"Show time" Emma says clapping her hands.

I follow the girls out of the room and down the steps slowly in my heels.

I see Alex at the bottom of the steps and he looks nervous as he fixes his tie.

The boys are busy setting a table and Alex takes my hand leading me to it.

I take my seat across from him as the girls and guys all leave the house.

Looking back at Alex in confusion I ask, "what the fuck is going on?"

"Well I paid the girls and guys to set up this nice dinner for us here at your house."

"I see that...why?"

"Because you and I haven't had a date in a while and I wanted it to be just us." He explains

"Well this is nice." I smile taking his hand across the table.

We eat and laugh over small things before he takes my hand and turns on a radio that plays "thinking out loud" by Ed Sheran.

"Shall we dance" he asks

I laugh and nod wrapping my arm around his neck and his around my waist. He twirls me around and dips me and then back to the same position.

"You know you're amazing Brice." He smiles down at me.

"I am not. You are if anything. You go through so much trouble just for me and I just want you to know that I really do appreciate it so much."

"Well I appreciate you and your laugh thats like music to my ears. Your eyes that put me in a fucking hold me down and how loving and caring you are. I-I really am falling for you. You're so different from all these other women. You make me feel like a better person and I promise Brice that I will always be there for you. Just do me the honor of excepting this promise ring."

He pulls out a diamond ring and I look at it in shock. Khalil did this same shit. But Alex isn't Khalil and I need to start accepting that.

"I accept it." I say looking at him and he smiles so wide and slides it onto my finger before pulling me in for a kiss.

"I love you" he says into the hug.

I wish I could say it back.

"Don't worry about saying it now. I can wait for you."He whispers.

But for how long?
