Him

Chapter 1

"Come on, it's almost 8 o'clock and you haven't even showered yet" I heard Noah say.

I am extremely exhausted. I didn't even get a decent amount of sleep because he was talking so loud on his phone about some sort of arrangement, which I could careless about right now.

I sat up and glared at him cuffing his sleeves. His father was hosting an event dedicated to his brother for getting a job promotion and Mr.Black happened to invite me.

Did I want to go? No

Do I have to go because I don't want to be rude? Yes

Am I going to regret it because I might be too cranky to even talk to people?

Yes but fuck it.

I choose to do nothing to him because I might even hurt his feelings, I'm so fucking tired right now so I'm not dealing with his bullshit.

I took off my clothes and went to the shower and let the hot water calm my nerves. After I finished, I moisturized my skin and did light makeup. I let my frizzy hair hang down my back.

I got up from the stool in the bathroom and walked to the closet, skipping though outfits. I don't even know what to wear. I stood there staring at my clothes but then I remembered that my mother bought me a black backless dress with black platform heels for my cousins graduation ceremony. I didn't get to wear it because a thunderstorm happened and I couldn't get there.

I went to the top shelf and took out the dress and heels. After I managed to get the dress passed my hips, I zipped it up and put on my heels, necklace and earrings.

"Let's Go." He yelled at the bottom of the stairs. He was getting on my very last nerve and I'm trying my hardest not the lose it.

I looked at myself in the the mirror one last time before spraying one fragrance. I picked up my purse and went down stairs.

He was to busy texting someone to even notice I was coming down the stair case.

What if I fell? He wouldn't even notice to catch me.

When I finally reached the bottom, he looked at me from head to toe with a straight face. I was hoping he would say something nice for a change. But no

He opened the door and hurried to car, starting it up. I opened the door and got in. At this point I'm used to this but I was just hoping for some sort of progress.

Ever since a few weeks ago he has been acting weird. He doesn't kiss me, we don't have deep late night talk anymore.

I just want this night to be over so I can get back in my bed and sleep until the next two days.

" I'm so exhausted, I've been doing paper work all morning and couldn't even get any sleep because of you, talking on the phone." I said with my head resting on the window.

" I was trying to find out what was going on with whatever father had planned because he did tell me until last minute, plus I had to arrange some assistance to help with the set up so if anyone is exhausted, it's me." He said angrily l, clutching the steering wheel.

I just kept my mouth shut. I'm not in the mood to start an argument at the moment.

I only met his parents once when we had dinner. His mother was a complete bitch. For some reason she was trying to hide the fact she is racist and the fact that her son is dating a black woman.

His father on the other hand was so sweet and humble. He has a certain vibe that I like and he is no where near was his son is right now. I even have a feeling Noah is gonna get all goody around everybody.

Finally we arrived at the venue. He parked in his personal space and we got out. There was a paparazzi at the entrance, taking pictures of people here and there.

I forgot how well known his father is.

He walked in front of me and when we got a little closer he stopped and put his hand on my lower back, leading me inside.

Oh look, he's a gentleman when we're in public. Fan-fucking-tastic

The place is beautiful and huge on the inside. There were rose gold chandeliers and beautiful paintings on the walls. The floor was so polished and shiny that I could see my own reflection. White tables with gold and burgundy chairs, and a small podium for none other than the host himself.

The people here were dressed up in high fashion. I hope I don't look under dressed compared to some of the rich beautiful women in here.

Noah walked around and greeted a few people. A waiter walked by and offered us champagne. This is gonna be a long night so I drank two trying to not seem like I'm to lazy to talk to people and lighten up a little.

I would be in bed right now, dreaming about floating in a peaceful stream but instead I'm here at an event I don't want to be at but I also don't want to seem rude. After Noah talking to people and mingling while I stand there smiling and nodding like the good person I'm not, the sound of the mic being turned on caught everyone's attention to looking the direction of the podium. There was Mr.Black
with the mic in his hand but my attention wasn't on Mr.Black anymore... I was to busy looking at him.
