~Next morning~
"Please! Can you please help me out? I also helped you!" Rowan begged.
I sighed and crossed my arms across my chest.
"And I paid you for it."
"PLEASE HE'S MY BEST FRIEND!!!!"
He clasped his hands and glanced down. If he was willing to get down on his knees for him, his best friend must be someone really important.
"But I'm not sure if my husband would agree..."I nervously rubbed my neck.
"Won't agree for what?" Tobias emerged from the restroom, a towel wrapped around his waist. He stiffened the moment his gaze fell on Rowan kneeling in front of me.
He looked at Rowan while running his fingers through his hair.
The tension in the room choked me.
"Aurora wants to perform at my best friend's engagement party."
I whacked him, causing him to groan.
"Stop Lying, I Never Agreed!" I shrieked. Tobias flexed his arms, causing his muscles to bulge out, which made him look much more scary than he already was.
"She said no. So leave..."His voice was threateningly low. It sent shivers up both my and Rowan's spines. Rowan turned to face me.
"Please, I'll do whatever you want!" Rowan's eyes pleaded unspokenly.
I let out a sigh.
"OK, but only in one condition..." I responded, causing Tobias to sneer and Rowan to smile.
"Anything you want!"
"Tobias should dance with me." I grinned. The boy's pupils dilated.
"ME?!!"
"HIM?!!"
They both yelled simultaneously. I enthusiastically nodded.
"I won't do it unless he comes with me."
"Aurora-" Rowan cut Tobias off before he could say anything.
"Deal!" Rowan jumped out of the room, ecstatic.
Maybe it won't be too bad.
"NO I DON'T WANT TO DANCE!" Tobias yelled.
"Oh come on, it's on my bucket list and it'll be fun!"
"NO-"
~Evening~
"I can't believe you talked me into doing this." As I buttoned his black formal t-shirt, he grumbled."But, you're a hot devil." I winked, causing his cheek to flush.
"You're also a cute angel." He muttered and averted his gaze. I laughed.
I was wearing a white short dress and had large white wings on my back. I wore my typical red lipstick and snowflake earrings. They had also provided me white heels to wear with all of my other accessories. They truly dressed me up.
"Just cute?" I teased. He covered his gorgeous baby blue eyes with his colored lenses.
"I think you should have been the devil not me." He chuckled. I fixed his black wings.
"I like your blue eyes better." I groaned. He turned around to look at me.
In the dusk light, his red eyes blazed, taking my breath away.
"You sure about that ,love?" He bit his lips. Shit...
"Actually I changed my mind. I like you with red eyes." I said in awe. He chuckled.
