A New Kind of Love.

Part 5

" Oh my god", I mumble.

" Holy shit", Rosalie whispers.

I'm. Speechless. My heart beats rapidly, it feels like it's going to thump out of my chest. If it wasn't for the music, anyone could hear how loud it was beating.

" Happy birthday Anne", I look before me at Sebastian, standing at my doorway. I rub my eyes gently to make sure I'm not hallucinating a stripper with his face, but no, it's really him.

" Can I?"

" Yeah come right in Sebastian", Rosalie opens the way for him.

He walks over to me, towering over me. The pictures don't do him justice. He's changed so much. His hair is darker than the pictures, he's built and tall, he makes me feel short. Even though I'm averagely not short.

The light makes his eyes glimmer, a sort of sparkle. His burgundy shirt tightens around his muscular body and strong arms. I take a deep breath.

" Anne?" His voice smooth as he says my name in a low tone.

I don't respond. I just look at him. So many years, of not seeing him. Sebastian, who I knew as a teenager was not the same Sebastian. His voice was different, he looked way older. His presence was intimidating, he didn't seem like the same friendly teenage boy I fell in love with.

I've always imagined the day we would reunite, and what I would say, I repeated it over and over in my head. Now that he's here in front of me, I'm without words, my mind is completely blank.

My eyes fixate on his eyes. " Sebastian- what are you doing here", I blurt.

" I was in New York- your father told me it was your birthday today", his eyes wander to my body , and back up to my face

" You've changed, a lot", he says what I've been meaning to say.

" Yeah- yeah I have. How have you been-

" Oh well who is thisss?" Robert rushes over next to me and pulls me in by the waist. Sebastian tightens his jaw, fixates his eyes somewhere else, on Robert. The atmosphere becomes stomach turning. Rosalie turns to give me one of those warning looks.

" Sebastian Santana- Pleasure to meet you-

" Woah woah woah? You're Sebastian?" Robert turns over to look at me confused.

" Why are you here?" Robert stands in front of me. Sebastian huffs loudly and clears his throat.

" Yes I'm Sebastian, I didn't quite catch your name?" He tries to remain calm, but I know him, his body language;the way he tries and is trying to restrain himself from losing his composure.

" Robert- Joanne's boyfriend", Robert mocks, shaking Sebastian's hand.

" Ahh- I'm an old friend of hers", Sebastian devilishly smirks at me.

" I know who you are man, let's try to be real here", Robert stands up straight, Sebastian adjusts himself and looks down at Robert.

"Do we have a problem here?" Sebastian tilts his head , his body tenses up.

" The problem is here, in front of me- Did you know it's disrespectful for an ex-boyfriend to show up at his ex girlfriends party , who now has a new boyfriend?" Robert roughly pulls me in by the waist, I squeeze out of his embrace, his hands feel rough.
