First 4

We ended up sitting down with Elaine, who was surprisingly sitting alone.

"Can we sit here?" Sera asked.
"Yeah, sure. I could use some company." she giggled. We sat down and Sera continued to eat her food.

"Do you want to tell me why you're so pissed?" Sera asked, stuffing her mouth with her fries. I sighed. Once I finished telling her that Ace tried to kiss me, she was left speechless.

"He toys with people's emotions, I guess." Elaine said.

The rest of the day finished and I figured I should go to the washroom since I felt like taking a whizz from my ice tea. I entered the washroom and opened the stall at the back. Surprised as I am, Alina is all over Ace, kissing him over and over again. They don't seem to notice my presence, my eyes and mouth wide open, my cheeks flaming red. Ace looks at me, while kissing Alina. His neutral expression sends chills to my spine. I slam the stall shut and run out of the washroom shocked.

Sera was waiting for me outside of the washroom.
"What? Are you okay?" Sera asked laughing. Somehow, she finds humour to my shocked expression.
"Yeah. The back stall in the washroom is filthy." I said.
"Okaaay. Ready?"
"Yeah. Lets go." I replied gesturing my hand to my bag which she hold onto while I encountered a steamy scene in the washroom. I couldn't believe what I just saw. They only met in one day and they're already all over each other.

I went home and found my sister sleeping. Sera said that we were going to a restaurant lounge called Haze with Elaine and her friend. I waited outside for her on my front porch. A few minutes later a white car drove by.

"Aya! We're here!" Sera said. Elaine waved her hands outside of the car.
A guy stepped out of the drivers door and opened the door for me to enter. I glanced up at him to meet his green eyes.

"I'm Sean." he said.
"I'm Aya. Nice to meet you." I said smiling.
"He's a friend of mine and he offered to drive us there." Sera explained. I nod and stepped into the car. When we got there, I spotted someone there- Oh god! I shouldn't have come!- Alina, Jayden and- ugh!- Ace were all sitting together with Alina in the middle.
"Hey guys! Come sit with us." Alina offered. Sean lead the way to the obnoxious girl. We sat down with Jayden facing Sean, Elaine and Sera facing Alina and me facing- Oh god! - Ace.
We talked for a while, while we waited for the food to arrive. I wasn't sure on how to start a conversation so I stayed silent, along with Ace. Everything was fine until this happened...

"Are anyone of you in a relationship?" Alina asked.

"No. I'm not- but..." Jayden said. I felt his eyes staring at me but I ignored it.

"I haven't been in a relationship in a while." Sean admitted.

"Well, there's this guy I've been seeing..." Elaine confessed shyly.

"Nope, not in a relationship right now." Serra said.

"What about you Aya?" Alina asked with a huge grin plastered on her face. Ace glanced at me, waiting for my answer. Chills went down my spine. I'm scared to answer that I wasn't planning on being in a relationship because I'm afraid that I'll marry a guy like my father and have him leave me.

"I-"
"Of course she's not in a relationship. She's too uptight. Anyone would be stupid to stay by her side." Ace said rolling his eyes.

My heartbeat increased, I can feel my blood flow in my veins. My eyes started to well up with tears but I managed to keep it in. He doesn't know, he doesn't understand. Before I even knew what I was doing, I stood up and slam my hands on the table.

"Shut up! You don't know anything about me or my past! You don't know how I feel about having a relationship especially when I had my father abandon me!" I yelled, my cheeks felt hot. He stayed silent as to the rest of them as well.

"Uhh...excuse me." I said. I felt so embarrassed and ran to the washroom. I felt like crying but I didn't, my eyes would turn puffy and that would be too suspicious for them. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. Suddenly, I felt someone's hot breathe on me.
