Playing With Fire ( BECKFREEN G!P)

Part 11

"Freen, are you even paying attention?" my mother called.

"Sorry," I replied, coming out of my daydream about Becky. I had called her last night. We were hopefully getting together tomorrow. Damn, college and work. We were managing pretty well, but this week had just been a nightmare.

"So Nam has sorted out the guest list for your party. In total it will be about five hundred people."

"Do I even know that many people?" I asked shocked.

"Some are our friends. We are getting a DJ and Nam has suggested a band you and her know called Eclipse. Are they any good?"

I froze for a moment. Mom was talking about Becky's band. I wasn't sure how I would cope having her around my wealth. My house alone scared her. I could tell by her face after the ball. The party would be totally over the top. Just like every other birthday party I had ever had.

"Yeah, they are amazing, but I'm not sure they do birthday parties."

"Oh, they do, I have already booked them. I spoke to someone called Saint." Something told me Becky had no idea about this booking.

"Oh, okay."

"Aro and his family will be there. You need to sort out another date with Alex. You haven't seen him in ages." That was because all I wanted to do in my spare time was gaze into my barwoman's eyes.

"Yeah, Alex is pretty busy at the moment."

My head was swimming with confusion. The only thing that made sense at the moment was taking as much time as I could with Becky. Selfish as it was, because I could tell every time saw Becky she fell that little bit more for me. I would split her in two when I finally left. I just knew it.

"Well, you are the best thing I have seen all night," Becky smiled from across the bar. I had come on my own to LoveLick, knowing Nam was at Loveheart waiting for Mind. Becky had to swap her shift because Alice was ill.

"Hi," I smiled sitting on the bar stool while Becky got me a coke. I swear she could read my mind.

"You seem stressed Freen, spill." Yeah, she could so read my mind and we had only been seeing each other for four weeks - Four amazing, wonderful weeks.

"My mom has booked your band for my birthday party next month." I didn't want to beat around the bush.

"Seriously?" Becky didn't look scared.

"She spoke to Saint." I looked wary at her.

"Son of a bitch - She didn't say anything when she came in earlier."

"I can understand if you didn't want to do it." I was playing with my glass of coke when Becky lifted my chin up to look at her.

"Why would you think I wouldn't want to do it?" She smiled. "It means I get to see you on your birthday, even if it is from afar." She was too good to me. I didn't deserve to be loved like this.

"That is hardly fair," I muttered.

"Freen, one day I will have no choice but to look at you from afar."

"Please don't," I touched her face, not really caring if anyone saw me. She closed her eyes sighing. "I don't want to have this conversation until we have to."

"Okay," she smiled opening her stunning green eyes.

"What time do you finish?"

"In an hour or so. It's pretty dead now."
