and we hated

Fact no.13: That's my girl

NOAH

I am waiting in the hallway, waiting along with Kai for the girls to finally be ready, so we can get going to the party. Cami told us the dress code is fancy, so we both wear tux, shirt and all that shit. I would rather go in a hoodie, but Kai made me swear I'll dress nicely for once. I know he mostly did it to please Cami, but I did it for him anyways.

As the girls come down the stairs from where they were getting ready in April's room, I thank the universe this party chose fancy as a motto.

April looks stunning.

She's drop-dead gorgeous.

She's wearing a beautiful black dress, that hugs her curves and body like it was especially made for her. Her brown skin glows in the sunlight, making her seem magical. Dreamy. Her curly dark hair is falling free, only styled that the locks don't snap out of place. She doesn't wear much make-up, but with April, she doesn't need any. The only make-up I see is some shadow on her eyes and a red lipstick. Nothing more.

She's stunning.

"Don't drool in front of her like a fucking idiot", Kai tells me while hitting me with his elbow in my ribcage.

I flip him off yet take his advice.

I'm a fucking idiot. And I'm drooling in front of her.

Immediately, I change my face expression into the one I usual put on in front of her. Stone-cold. Frozen. Untouchable. April's gaze falls on me, assessing my outfit once. She opens her mouth to say something, yet she then meets my eyes and whatever she wanted to say is forgotten. Just like that.

I know what I am. Fucking idiot.

April turns her gaze back to the top of the staircase, where currently Cami and Dia appear. The girls look pretty, but not as pretty as April. Cami is in a dark green satin long dress, her hair a bit wavy now. Dia next to her wears a similar gown, made of satin but purple. She has gloves of the same color and material reach her elbows and her hair was braided together and styled in a bun.

As I said, they look pretty.

But not as pretty.

"Can we go now?", I ask, merely to get my thoughts elsewhere. And not on the fact I'd like to throw that black dress off her and see her naked in front of me, so I can worship her body.

Elsewhere is better.

"Prick", April lets out when she passes by me and shows me the middle finger.

I grin at her.

So beautiful.

"Do you have something to say, Coin?", she adds, when noticing the stupid smirk on my face.

"Absolutely not, precious. Though, I'm glad to see your mood hasn't been affected by this change of looks. The world would suffer a great loss if April Davis would be nice for one night."

She seems to boil at my reply. Teeth clench and she forms her fist. However, that rage is quickly dampened by her taking a deep breath and letting out. "Well, the world would suffer a great loss if Noah Coin would suddenly be found dead one morning, no one knowing how it happened. Good to know hell has already a place reserved for you."

I let out a grin, showing off my teeth at her.

"Would you join me, precious?"

"No way. I'd rather be the one crying at your funeral, making sure I get away with murder."

"Cruel evil woman", I reply, although I start noticing I tell these words to often to her. I would rather tell her Beautiful magnificent woman, but I'm sure she would snap at that and her rage would unleash, actually killing me.
