Chapter 6
•Fleur's POV•
The week passes in a rush of classes and homework and soon I'm waving goodbye to Anne Marie and my dad as they go off for a romantic weekend in Paris. Once they've driven off Ashton calls the boys over, who come bearing vodka and beer.
"Hey Fleur" Michael says, smacking my ass as he walks in. I squeak in protest and then glare at him from across the room. "Want a beer?" Calum asks me. "No thanks, I don't drink" I say, turning to go up the stairs. Suddenly I hear the sound of something being thrown. I whip around and catch the beer can just as it's about to hit me in the face. "I said" I glare at Michael's shocked face "I don't drink" I throw the beer can back at him at walk upstairs.I've just got out of the shower when I hear the doorbell ring. I shrug on a bathrobe and run downstairs. Alex is standing in the doorway, blushing like a tomato and Ashton is standing in front of her.... also blushing?! I hold back a giggle. "Alex, this is my stepbrother Ashton, Ashton this is my friend Alex" I say, introducing them. They both stutter like idiots. I've never seen Ashton look so flustered, it's adorable. "C'mon Alex" I say, interrupting their stuttering match. "We've got to get ready" She nods and follows me up the stairs but out of the corner of my eye I see her look back at Ashton at least twice.
Once we reach my room she snaps out of her trance and gets to work. She blow-drys my hair and curls it slightly. I slip into my dress. It's a shimmery dark blue bodycon with 3/4 length sleeves and triangular shapes cut out of the sides. Alex does my makeup: mascara, eyeliner, nude eyeshadow and pale pink lipstick. Then I do Alex's hair and she puts on her dress: A v-necked white bodycon with jewel decal around the shoulders. I do her makeup: the same as mine but with nude lipstick. I put on my nude heels and she puts on some white flats because she says she "can't walk in heels" "Looking hawttt" I exclaim as we look in the mirror.
We hear people start to arrive so we go downstairs. The boys look up as we walk down. They stare, gobsmacked. *Thats right bitches* I look over at Alex and she's blushing like crazy again. I hold back a smile as I see Ashton staring at her. Michael wolf whistles, while staring at my boobs. I hit him in the back of the head. "My eyes are up here, dipshit" I say, sighing.
"Yeah I know, I've done chemistry"
"You mean biology"
"Same thing"
I laugh and ruffle his hair. By now the house is packed with people.I abandon the boys and grab Alex. I drag her onto the dance floor and we start dancing to Timber. We get several stares as we shimmy and shake along to the beat. "I LOVE THIS SONG" I scream at Alex. "ME TOO" She screams back "BUT I NEED A DRINK, BACK IN A FEW" I continue to dance as she pushes her way between sweaty bodies to get to the kitchen. After a while I go to find her. I walk into the kitchen to find her and Ashton aggressively making out. "EWWW" I scream as I run out but I don't think they even noticed.
I wander about aimlessly until I find Michael, talking to a plant. He's so drunk he can barely stand and he's mumbling nonsense to the plant. Suddenly Luke appears by my side. "Better get him upstairs" he says, trying not to laugh. I help him drag Michael up the stairs and into one of the unoccupied bedrooms. Once we get downstairs I'm sweating like a pig. Luke hands me a drink and I down it, not caring what it is. "I thought you didn't drink?" He says, grinning and handing me another.
"I don't" I look into the sapphires which are his eyes "But sometimes I'm a bad girl" He suddenly grabs me around the waist *oh my Jesus* and I get goosebumps where his fingers graze my bare skin. My breath hitches in my throat. His tongue plays with his lip ring as his hands wander up and down my sides. I lean in and...."OK WHOS READY TO SEE MICHAEL... MICHAEL FUCKING CLIFFORD JUMP FROM THIS BALCONY"
"Aw shit" Luke says, sprinting off to save Michaels life. I laugh, Michael is the biggest idiot ever.I turn around and bump into someone, spilling my drink all over them. "Shit, sorry" I say
The person chuckles. I look up to see a super hot guy (see picture ^) standing over me. He has brown, shaggy hair. His eyes are a deep chocolate brown with flecks of gold. His jawline and cheekbones are well defined. *yuummmmmm* "Emm hello?" He says grinning and waving a hand in front of my face. I blush. "Oh sorry, em let me get you a towel" I stutter, leading him towards the kitchen. I grab a towel out of one of the drawers and start dabbing at his shirt. "You seem to know the house well" He says, gesturing towards the towel.
"Well I should do, since I live here"
I feel him stiffen.
"You're Ashton's sister?"
"Step sister" I correct him, still drying his shirt.
"I'm Jake" He says, regaining his composure. "Fleur" I say, looking up at him. *god he looks good from this angle*I stand up and throw the towel on the counter. "Well Fleur, since you ruined my shirt" I blush. "You owe me a dance" He says, offering me his hand. I take it and he leads me out to the dance floor. I'm really nervous because I've never actually danced with a boy before. I think Jake senses that because he hands me a drink which I down before I start dancing.1 hour later and I'm a little bit tipsy and dancing with Jake. Suddenly I'm yanked away from him. I try to steady myself as I look to see who did that. The music has been turned off and everyone has cleared the dance floor except Jake and..... Luke?! Luke walks up to Jake and punches him in the jaw. "WHAT THE FUCK LUKE?!" I scream, trying to get to him but I'm being held back by Ashton who's appeared behind me. Jake looks over at me and smiles weakly, right before Luke punches him again and again, over and over. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR PLAYING AT BALDWREN?!" Luke yells at him as he continues to punch him. " I'm screaming my head off but Ashton is still holding me back. I knee him in the balls and run over to Luke. He looks at me, as if he's shocked with what he's done. *bastard* I punch him in the nose. "You're sick" I hiss at him. I turn to Jake who is trying to stand up. I help him up and lead him outside. He has a cut on his lip and bruises are starting to form. I run inside, ignoring Luke and grab a wet rag. I gently dab at the cut on his lip. "What the hell was that?!" I ask him softly. "They just don't like me" he says smiling. "It doesn't mean they have to beat you up!" He tucks a bit of hair behind my ear. "I'm fine Fleur" I roll my eyes. "Sure you are"
"Give me your number" he says, smirking. "Why?"
"Ah come on, I'm an invalid" He gives me puppy dog eyes. I giggle and give him my number.Ashton walks out. "Get out Baldwren" he orders, ignoring me. "Better get going" Jake grimaces as he gets up. I give him a hug and let him go, not wanting him to get beat up any more. He walks down the path. "And Baldwren?" Ashton shouts from behind me. Jake turns around. "Stay away from my sister"
