15 | The Adore You

"Walk in your rainbow paradise

Strawberry lipstick state of mind

I get so lost inside your eyes

Would you believe it?

You don't have to say you love me

You don't have to say nothing

You don't have to say you're mine

Honey (ah)

I'd walk through fire for you

Just let me adore you."

Adore you - Harry Styles



My mind was racing one hundred miles per hour after all the events that happened at this so call it party. I mean, first Elliot and his fianceé barging in here, like who invited them? Then my dad, with his stupid ass announcement and Alexandra going nuts.

I definitely don't judge her. I'm mad too, but I tend to keep it to myself. And of course the suply closet, well that one is my fault. I don't regret what I did, but she definitely did, so that's why I got out of there as quickly I could.

And also why I'm at the bar drinking my problems away, again. But my solo fun is shortly cut by Ryder and some girl that's glued to his side.

"How's my favorite Vittorio this night?" His almost drunk ass says while hugging me sideways.

I don't say anything to him, knowing where this conversation is leading to.

"Come on man, don't be bitter. Tell me what's on your mind?" I down the rest of my drink before launching a hard gaze at him. "Okay, okay."

From my peripheral vision I see him saying something in the brunette ears before she makes her away out of here.

"Spit it out, why are you acting like a bicth?" I let out a groan from how annoying this man can be. "Hey, you the one who wanted to be friends with me now suck it up."

I brush my hair with my hands feeling frustrated with him and I know if I don't give him anything he won't back down.

I turn my head in his direction before letting out a sigh just giving up on trying to stay quiet.

"This party sucks." I hear Ryder laugh.

"Well and since when is this news?"

"It isn't, but tonight is just..."

"Just way worse because of Alex and wherever you guys went in the middle of the announcement?" Bingo.

"Yeah something like that." I say almost in a whisper and not a second later I see Ryder ordering another round of drinks for us.

"So like old times huh?" I shoot him another hard gaze and he ignores completely. "Where is she by the way?"

Both of us turn our heads around to look for the hot-headed brunette, but she's nowhere to find.

"No idea and I don't care." I down my drink once again and loving the burning feeling in my throat.

After a few minutes of chatting with Ryder, I feel someone's hand in my left arm wanting my attention. I was ready to reject whoever was, but the familiar voice stopped me mid way.
