Drunk in love

Chapter 1.

This time I was determined to stand out of the crowd. I would make them notice me. I looked myself at the mirror ,trying to put on my make up properly. When I was satisfied with the result, I went back to my room. I opened my closet and tried to figure out what to wear.

Today one of my brother's friends would get married and we were all invited. For some reason,he had insisted that I would be there too,so here I was. Trying not to look like an outcast where all the other girls would wear their fancy clothes. I picked a mini dress that was not too revealing and put it on. Then, I got my new high heels and tried to walk on them.

Seriously,how can people walk with these shoes? I'm pretty sure that high heels are another intention of men to torture women. But then again,no pain no gain. Right?

When I was all set up,I looked at myself at the mirror and I could barely recognize me. Which was good. I smiled and went downstairs where everyone was waiting for me.

"Jeez,what took you so long Emma?We have to be there in - " my brother started complaining but stopped as soon as he saw me. "Wow,you seriously look different!"

I smiled and went towards him. "I know right? But I think we should go now. We will be late. "

He looked at me once again and then he headed towards the door. I followed him,smiling to myself. If he was so amazed, I couldn't wait to see his friends' reaction. One of them in particular.

We arrived at the wedding just on time and as my brother went to meet his friends I stood there,not knowing where to go. I could see people giving me weird looks but I tried to act like I'm cool. I walked casually towards my brother and greeted his friends.

"Hey guys. How are you doing?", I smiled.

They all turned their heads and looked at me head to toe.

"Emma?! Is that really you?"

"I would never recognize you dressed like that!"

"You look hot girl."

That last comment made my brother grit his teeth.

"Shut up asshole. That's my little sister over here."

The guys laughed and I blushed. My brother was always like that. He never let anyone look at me or smile at me. For his friends,I was something totally forbidden. This was unfair since all of them were hot.

"So..uhm. Where's Bill? I thought he would be here..", I asked Nick as I sat next to him.

"You don't want your brother to hear you so keep it down Emma. " he laughed. "He will be here in a few. Don't worry. "

Bill was my all time crush. Ever since I can remember myself, I had a thing for him. But he never noticed me as a girl. In his eyes I would always be Jason's little sister. It sucks.

I made myself comfortable at my seat and kept waiting for him to show up. I could hear everyone talking next to me but I didn't pay any attention. Then, I saw him.

He was wearing his tuxedo and when he spotted us,he smiled. I felt my cheeks blushing again as he was approaching.

"Jay! What's up dude?" He looked at my brother and did this handshake thing they always do with each other. I waited until he saw me and he gasped. "That can't be Emma! You look so..so different!"

I stood up,smiling. "It's nice to see you Bill." I shyly kissed his cheek and moved over so he could sit next to me. At the same time though,my brother decided that it wouldn't end up good if we sat next to each other and called him.

"Man come sit over here. I have to talk to you."

Disappointed,I went to sit back and I almost landed at someone's lap.

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry , I didn't see you. Oh my God. ",I freaked out.

He just laughed it off and grabbed my waist. "Relax babe. It's okay. Just sit next to me,yeah?" He placed me right next to him and it was just then that I looked at his face.

It was him. Felicity's crush. She has been drooling over him for months but they have never even talked. And now he was talking to me. I blushed like an idiot once again. What was I supposed to do now?

Take it easy,I told to myself. "Sure, I guess I can sit here. I'm sorry. I didn't see you before. " ,I mumbled and sat back.

He kept smiling and gave me his hand. "I'm James and you're glad to meet me. "

I stood there not knowing what to do as a million thoughts were crossing my mind.

"That's the part where you shake my hand and you tell me your name,babe.",he laughed. And of course,I blushed.

"Uhm. It's Emma. Nice to meet you", I said biting my inner lip.

"So,Emma. How come I have never seen you around? I would have noticed you. ",he smirked.

"We're going to the same school actually. ",I said. Of course he hasn't noticed me. He's one of the most popular guys in school and I'm just me. Jason's sister. I was about to say something when the bride walked in and the wedding started.

When it was over,we headed to the reception. My brother had totally forgotten about me and I had to walk there by myself. I was talking slow steps trying not to make a fool of myself with those stupid high heels when I felt someone putting their arm on my waist.

I felt his warm breath at the back of my neck as he hold me still.

"How come you're alone right now?"

I turned my head to see James and gracefully took his other arm. "My stupid brother was supposed to walk me to the reception but he just forgot about me."

I realized what I had said when I saw his smirk. "I mean..Jason forgot me. It's okay. I can go by myself. "

"Let me walk with you,yeah? There's a chance we will irritate him a bit when he sees us. " He held me close to him and I smiled.

I would get back to Jason for forgetting me and to Bill for always ignoring him. And James would help me get what I wanted.

I followed his lead to the wedding reception ,not once thinking about Felicity and her feelings. Tonight was all about me. And James.
