Blame It On Fate

CHAPTER 20

Outfit^

We reached the Central Park at 4:08. From there we went for a cup of a coffee or tea in a small café nearby. We decided to show our souvenirs after we return from dinner. Then we were headed to the penthouse. I rested for an hour or so then I had to decide something to wear. I chose some casual yet formal clothes. It was beige sweater an off white skirt with a handbag and boots which reached a little above my knees and my hair open and curled.

I heard my phone ringing, who could possibly be calling me right now? It was Levi.

"Lexi, why you calling?" I answered the call.

"First of all it's Levi and the reason I called stop taking eons to get ready and come down stairs everyone is ready." He said.

"Alright fine, I'm coming down." I said and hung up.

————-

We were going to fancy posh restaurant in the centre of the city. It was quite lavish and beautiful, it almost looked like a palace, it was actually a resort. Why couldn't we stay here? Instead of the hotel we stayed in, it was quite pretty too but this one is so much more prettier, luxurious and looked wonderful.

We sat on a table for 10, of course and I sat between Cole and Tristan, goodness. Couldn't I get a better seat? Stuck between two boys, whom I like. I admit that my feelings for both of them have arisen again. Yes both of them, but I can't figure out whom to chose, but for the long run Cole seems a better option. I think I'll give it a chance with Cole.

"Elyse." I heard my dads voice.

"Huh?"

"Why do you zone out so often? I've been calling your name for years. Just order something now." Levi said.

"Oh um ok." I said and looked at the menu, now after seeing the food prices I do know that why did we not stay here. Anyways I ordered a salmon steak with a green salad.

While we waited for food, mom, dad uncle and aunt were talking about the stupid royal family shit again. I really want the life Nicholas leads, at least he doesn't have to be there in these parties and ceremonies and have to take responsibility for the first born child, it was kind of selfish for him to just throw all the duties on me. I mean I don't blame him. What happened with Lilith, his mother and him, happened cause of the royal families, so it was obvious that he would develop some kind of hate for them, but still he thinks of me and Levi, it warms my heart.

"The food is here." There were three waiters and they said it in sync. Jesus! Don't yell please.

Not gonna lie, the food looks yum. I just looked on my sides Cole had ordered fried chicken and it looked mouthwatering. And Tristan was having beef stew I guess. Personally I don't like stew but that thing looked heavenly.

Suddenly while eating I felt a hand on my right thigh and my eyes widened and I choked on the steak that was in my mouth.

"Are you alright?" Tristan asked from my left. I nodded my head.

"You need some water?" Natalie asked. I nodded again, some water could help right now.

"Here you go." Natalie handed me a glass of water, she was sitting right in front of me.
