His Brother

Chapter 22

Chapter 22

"Just come! It'll be fun. You've got dresses in there that you haven't even worn yet! This is a chance to wear it," Maze pleaded, holding my hand. "Mason will be there," Maze smiled.

I frowned, not wanting to go to the party she wanted me to go to. My mind raced to find excuses to not go to the party. "Who will take care of Cinnamon? What if he gets hungry and he starves and dies? Who's fault would it be?" I crossed my arms.

"You have neighbors, Izzy. The old lady across the street exists, and she's really nice. I also happen to know she has a few puppies herself. Come on, you haven't been to a party in a long time. Pweeeesh!" She dragged me to my closet only to show me a pretty dress that I had no interest in wearing. "This and you go together perfectly!"

"What about the baby in your stomach? This isn't exactly healthy for it! There's probably gonna be booze at the party and who knows what you might end up drinking at the end of the night?"

Maze rolled her eyes. "Who said I was going?"

"If you're not going then why am I going?" I questioned her.

"Well first of all I want you to have fun tonight and not stay in like you always do, and also I have a date today. Aron and I will go take you to the party and we're going off to our date. Besides, Mason, your loving boyfriend is there for you."

I bit my lip, thinking about whether I should say yes or not. "What if some girl starts sweet talking to Mason when you're not there?" I looked at Maze as if she was crazy, but then again it could happen. My mind was starting to lean towards saying yes and the next thing I knew, the word had already came out.

"Oh yay! Now all we have to do is get a lot of work done on that hair of yours and you, my friend, will be good to go," Maze pulls a straightener out of my drawer and starts working on my hair. While she pulls my hair in all different directions, I see that her belly is really big. I squint my eyes and poke her belly and out of nowhere I feel a vibration in my hand.

"You baby just kicked me. YOUR BABY JUST KICKED ME!"

"Oh yeah, she's been doing a lot of that lately."

"She? She? Why didn't I know that your baby was a she? What didn't I know that your baby kicks?" my hand went over her belly waiting for another kick, which didn't come.

"Because I just found out today, now keep still your hair is getting messed up!"

After all the pulling and tugging Maze did to my hair, she started doing my makeup since I cannot even apply foundation correctly. I sat patiently while Maze makes me feel like I have cake batter on my face and occasionally glance at the mirror just to see whether I look like a ghost or not.

Maze added the last finishing touches before pulling the big bushy brush away from my face and smiled at what she had done to me. I looked myself in the mirror, blinking for a while. I hadn't seen myself with make up on everyday, so the fact that I saw myself with it on was really weird.

"Put this dress on," Maze pushed a pink and black striped dress into me and told me to change.

"Are you sure you're not gonna come with me?" I frowned at Maze hoping that she would say that she didn't have a date with Aron and could totally come with me to whatever party she brought me to.

"Hey, tonight is our date night, I wanna spend some time with my girlfriend, okay?" Aron shooed me to go into the party and soon enough I was in it. I looked around for Mason, but with my luck I didn't find him. I awkwardly pushed my way through the people until I found a nice chair that I probably was the best companion I had right now.

I decided I needed a drink so I got up and walked myself over to a drink. I picked up a cup of water and made my way back to the safe chair I was at. Before I actually got to the chair though, I bumped into someone I knew. I clapped to myself on the inside since I knew no one at this place but bumped into someone who I actually knew!

I looked up at the girl in front of me who I had known a few years back. "Hey! Kim! I haven't seen you in so long. Did you move back here?"

Kim came in for a hug and said hello back. "I'm only here for a two months, my mom is really busy so I'm staying at my aunt's place for now."

"What's up? How's life? I'm really freaking happy to see you again, like damn it's been like 4 years since I'd seen you last and a lot happened to you."

"Yeah I get that a lot now that I've came back. Anyways I have someone to get to so I guess I'll see you soon," Kim gave me one last hug before leaving me alone in this place.

I wandered the place for a while, not knowing where I was going. After a while I had a reason to wander the place though, due to my tiny ass bladder, I really had to pee after that one cup of water.

I rushed around the whole place looking for a bathroom, asking people around me where it was. After going in circles and circles I found myself standing in front of a nice blue bathroom.

I did my business in the bathroom and came out, allowing for the next person to go in. But it was a person. It was 2 people. I look up to the kissing couple and what do I see? I see Mason, and this other chick that looked a thousand times better than me. My eyes started to water and I could feel the heat in my cheeks start to burn. Mason looked so drunk that he didn't even recognize me. All he had said was move, and by that time I was already out of the way.
