Burning for her

Chapter 25

Clara

I was very proud of myself, since I was able to keep my stalking intentions in control. It mostly forced me into my home, playing video games all day, but I was fine with it. Though when Lillian asked me to accompany her to some club, giving Hayley a lift, I didn't say no in hopes of meeting Abbie.

I parked my motorbike outside, walking up to Lillian. My heart was hammering in my chest, my palms sweating like crazy. "What's up with your car?"

"Nothing." I shrugged.

"Let's go." She pointed behind herself at the entry. "I don't know if Abigail is here or not." She added.

"Hm." I hummed, like I didn't really care.

The club was as packed as you would imagine. Full of people around my age, Hayley's friend group being probably the youngest of them all. The typical club music filled the air as we pushed through. A place like this wasn't my usual spot, Grace would have more fun here. She liked interacting with people, random convos and shit I mostly hated.

Unfortunately Abigail was nowhere to be seen, only Hayley's other friends. "Darling." Lillian touched Hayley's back when we approached them in the corner sitting in a booth. Hayley's head spinned around, meeting her fiancé's eyes, with a huge smile.

"Hi!" She stood up, wrapping her arms around Lillian's neck, pulling her into a kiss, which was very explicit for a public kiss. It caught Lillian off guard too, grabbing onto the brunette as they stumbled backwards. "What are you doing here?"

"You asked me to take you home." She reminded her with a frown. Hayley's black dress was completely open on the back.

"Hi." Abigail's sister looked at me.

"Hi." I didn't exactly know what information Abbie gave to her about us, so I kept silent, leaving her to lead the conversation.

"How are you?" I frowned at the question.

"Good." I lied. "Date night?" I looked at her and her husband, who had her arm around her shoulder, while talking to Daniella.

"Yeah, Christie is with my mother." She explained.

"Nice." I nodded.

"Yes." Addison agreed.

"Are you ready to leave?" I heard Lillian's voice from the side.

"I'll go to the bathroom first." Hayley played with the end of Lillian's curly locks.

"Do you want me to join?" Lillian smirked a little, shamelessly looking down at Hayley's cleavage.

"No." Hayley shook her head with a smile. "Bekah will come."

"I will grab a drink." I said, leaving them behind to sort this out. I acted like the way Addison followed me wasn't obvious. "Do you want something too?" I asked as she leaned against the counter next to me.

"No, thank you." She shook her head. She pushed herself up onto a bar chair, waiting for me to order.

I turned to her with the glass in my hand, watching as Hayley and Rebekah left the room to the direction of the restrooms.

"I don't know what happened between you and my sister. I know something fucked up because she doesn't telling me."

"If she didn't tell you, I won't tell you."

"I'm not here for that." She crossed her legs, one over another. "Abbie is hurt. And when she is hurt she needs time and space. She is way too forgiving for her own good, but this could play in your favor now."
