Blame It On Fate

CHAPTER 17

It was already 4 P.M and I had to get ready, I quickly went to my room, I just grabbed a black hoodie which says 'Peace out bleaches.' Why can't they just write bitches? And with it I wore a denim slim fit jeans, tied my hair in a ponytail and applied some mascara and lip gloss.

This is the most basic look one can get, I usually dress like this.

It was 4:20 already and I started going out of the penthouse,

"You going somewhere?" Tristan asked me.

"Yes." I answered and started to head out once again.

"Where to?"

"To meet my b- to meet someone." I said.

"To meet your boyfriend?" He said stretching on the word boyfriend.

"For that I need to have a boyfriend."

"True, so to meet Brice?" He enquired.

"Yeah." I lied.

"Okay, should I drop you?" He offered.

"Um, no, I'll manage thank you." I said.

"You sure? Little kids shouldn't be left on their own." He said.

"And old uncles should mind their own business." I said and shot him a glare.

He just chuckled and shook his head and said, "you look cute while glaring cause you don't know how to glare." He said.

"And you do?" I challenged him.

Within a second he changed his emotions and glared at me.

Oops! He does know how to glare.

"Fine you win, now I'm getting late, bye."

"Bye." He said.

I reached the Matilda's café where he called me, it's a very sweet and small café in the middle of the town. It was owned by a old women named Matilda and now her daughter takes care of the cafe' with her son, I'm guessing Lilith is her daughter and Nicholas is Lilith's son and Matilda's grandson.

I went in there and the aura of the place is so soothing, it's pink and white and artificial grass is spread like a carpet on the floor. And there were artificial flowers too, it was a garden themed café and it looks so pretty.

"Ben? Hi." I said as I saw the familiar face of the bartender.

"Elyse, hello." He said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I'm here to meet someone." He grinned.

"Oh, me too." I said.

"Really? Who are you meeting?" He asked.

"Uh my brother." I said.

"Oh, your little brother? But he lives with you. I didn't know royal family had someone other than you two." He said.

Shit, I wasn't supposed to say that.

"Oh no, I meant I'm meeting a friend, he's with me since my childhood and I consider him my brother."

"Oh ok, come with me."

"Huh? Where?" I asked.

"I'm going to make you a drink." He said.

"What?" I laughed.

"We can wait together. Eh?" He asked.

"Sure, who you meeting?" I asked.

"I'm meeting someone important, after a long time.." he said.

I opened my mouth in an O shape and said, "yeah sure we can wait together."
