*Smut warning-this chapter contains spicey scenes toward the end*
In the morning I took them to go find outfits for our night out tomorrow. I still was not excited about going. even though I now had 2 gorgeous dates. The girls seemed a little apprehensive as well. I don't blame them for being leery of a club after what happened to Charlie. But they are going with me this time. I will make sure nothing will happen to them.
It didn't take the girls long to find outfits they wanted. Lily had a deep purple dress, and Charlie went with black. Both dresses were short, and tight. Lily's had cut outs around the torso, and Charlie's was strapless. I am having a hard time keeping my thoughts innocent. It doesn't help that I am pretty sure Charlie is conspiring against me. Especially after the kiss she game me.
I worked the rest of the day but from my office at home. Maaria came over to the house to get ready with the girls. Nick stayed with them making sure no one messed with them. I still had the extra guards too, but since my father is currently in town I wanted the girls well protected. He wouldn't hurt Maaria because she was family, but Charlie and Lily were fair game.
When I went back to the bedroom I could hear laughing and music. I am just not into this shit anymore. Drinking is great but dancing around to deafening music, not so much. Jesus, I sound like a fucking old ass man. I finally get the balls to walk into the room. They each have a drink. Lily is putting shit on Maaria's face.
"Hey cousin! What do you think?" Maaria blinks her lashes at me like I know what they did to them.
"Looks good." I say still trying to figure out what she did. She grins and lets Lily get back to work.
Charlie sat on the desk that was being used to hold an ungodly amount of makeup. It looked like she got her makeup done first. Her hair was done in big, loose, silky curls. Her lips were painted a dark mauve color. It made them look bigger and poutier. Which meant extremely kissable.
Lily had drawn all the attention to her eyes with her makeup. She used a purple shade close to her dress to make them look dark and mysterious. Her hair was straight like a satin curtain.
Maaria looked nice but she is my cousin. She has a more exotic look than me, and they were going all out on her hair and makeup. Her dress was silver with sparkles all over. Like a disco ball but not as obnoxious. Then she had a lot of dark around her eyes with a bit of silver sparkles thrown in.
I went to go take a shower and change my clothes. I was done showering and changing while they were still working on Maaria. They had moved to her hair now. I quietly thanked God for making me a man and not a woman. I would want nothing to do with all that shit they did.
Charlie goes to the closet and comes out in her dress ready to go. I sat down on the bed going through emails while they finished. She comes and sits next to me. She smiles at me. She just sits quietly while we wait, while I work. It's not awkward. In Fact I find it almost comforting just to have her near.
"First we are going to eat with family. After that we meet everyone else at the club." Maaria's voice breaks through my thoughts as she is giving us the rundown for tonight.
"Aye, when did dinner become part of the plan?" I question. No one said anything about dinner!
"ugh...We have to eat before we drink." Maaria rolls her eyes while Lily sprays her hair again.
"You're drinking now, and I don't see any food." I point out. Yes, I am messing with her on purpose. She is forcing me to go to all this shit so I might as well have fun pissing her off. She flipped me off and I chuckled at her. Her and Lily went to the closet where I guess their dresses were.
