The Way I Loved You

"So, this whole banquet thing. Why do you automatically think I'm going with you?" I asked Sky playfully as I watched him carry crates of champagne from a truck.

"Because let's be honest here love, there's no better suitor here than myself," Sky replied cockily making me swing my head back laughing.

"Now that isn't a way to charm a lady is it boy?" we both straightened up as the specialist came over to us. "Did I just make things awkward?" he asked looking between me and Sky.

"Not at all, I'm Winnie," I smiled at Sky's dad. Although they had a severed relationship I wanted to make a good impression.

"Andreas. I can help you kids out with these crates, give you some alone time. You guys look like you need to relax," Andreas told us suggestively making my eyes widen.

"Tonight will be long and tedious. Pompous alums who haven't done a hard day's work in their lives. This usually helps," Andreas said as he handed Sky two bottles of champagne.

We heard clattering from the other end of the courtyard making me look at Riven and Kat struggle to carry a table without Riven getting distracted.

"Take the afternoon. Adjust your attitude. His too, by the way," Andreas told us as he looked over at the stroppy Riven. Late last night, Riven joined us in the dorm with the news that he and Beatrix had broken up.

Andreas walked away leaving me and Sky stood perplexed. "Well I'm not going to take up his offer. I have an hour before I gonna start getting ready and I'd prefer to have some booze in my system," I said to Sky who was staring down at the bottles in his hands.

We collected Riven before heading to the dorm where me and Sky laid on his bed while Riven sat on Sky's desk-chair. "Can't believe you guys had rage sex in the back of Terra's car," Riven chuckled as I sat up and slapped Sky.

"Sky!" I shouted at the blonde as the two boys laughed. "It's not funny, it's embarrassing," I huffed as I ripped the bottle of champagne from Sky and took a chug.

"I'm just jealous. Last time I got screwed was by Beatrix and Rosalind, and not in a good way," Riven said solemnly making us fall quiet.

"Still can't remember anything?" Sky asked stealing the bottle back off me.

"No. Only thing I remember is being served up on a platter by my girlfriend and Rosalind mind fucking me," Riven responded angrily. 

"What did Rosalind want?" Sky asked curiously as he spilled the champers into my mouth.

"No idea," Riven shrugged. "It's all a blue. Doesn't matter anyway," he huffed. "Only thing that matters is me realizing how much of a bitch Bea was," Riven spat.

"She did care for you, she just had to chose between the man that raised her and the man that was closest to her. It mustn't of been easy," I replied however looking knowingly up at Sky, I didn't agree with his coldness towards Silva and while I couldn't directly tell him I was sure as hell gonna imply it.

There was a knock on the door as we all turned to see Dane walking in with a suit on. "Um, I'm gonna get a shower," Sky awkwardly stated as he sat us up.

"I need to go get ready. I'll see you boys later," I smiled at them as Sky placed a kiss on my cheek and I awkwardly moved past Dane. It seemed no one had told the love-struck boy that his threesome-fantasy had came to a startling end.

I headed to the Winx suite where the girls were all hunching a plan while getting ready. Apparently there was a vote tonight deciding Rosalind's fate as headmistress, I hadn't really told anyone but my dad was coming tonight.
