Chapter 21 - Saved by the Bud

"Annabella Julliard!" I smiled at the introduction, and the curtains pulled back, and the crowds cheers, settled down once the piano began. I heard a whistle, stifling a smile, I focused on the words. Even thought i was singing the right words, the song of a parody I made of it, was fleeting through my head.

"Once upon a time, In a classroom, I got hit by a note, you wouldn't leave me alone." I thought to myself. I thought of the words, as I continued to sing.

"When I fell hard, you took a step back." Tyler floated through my mind, and how he would be gone soon. But I couldn't miss out on the fact, he would be a great friend until he left. Again, I found myself dwelling, that I was just a move for him. I didn't realize I was done, until the crowd went crazy again. I laughed at myself, it seemed when I sing songs, that I loose myself, to the point by mouth is sinning, but my mind doesn't even register it.

I stood up, saying by to the band, who played the guitars and stuff. When Mrs. Peterson walked up to me, looking nervous.

"Mrs. Peterson." I said nodding, in acknowledgment. She smiled, pulling me into a hug.

"Hello darling, you look gorgeous. I wanted to know, If you would be willing to do a duet?" She asked, and I looked at her in shock.. a duet? I nodded, slowly.

"Great! If you know him Brad Wiser will be singing it with you. He is over there." Her finger pointing to Bud, who was grinning at me like a fool. I thought he wasn't coming? I instantly feel better, having him here.

"I will go talk to Mr. Wiser now. Are we to have it prepared for Thursday?" I asked, she nodded. Before muttering something about the wrong wine, and running off to yell at another employee. I try to stifle my laugh, as the man she is yelling at visibly pales.

"Ms. Julliard?" I man in a suit asks me. I look up to see an older version of Tyler. Is this is father? I had only met his dad once. Not enough to see who he was.

"I'm sorry, you have me at a disadvantage, Mr...." I trail of waiting for him to answer me.

"Mr. Peterson, Tyler's father." I nod, at his stiff smile.

"Mr. Peterson father, of course." I say, trying not to sound rude. I don't know much about him, but something irks me.

"I hear you and my son, are getting close." He says bluntly. I sigh.

"No, Sir. Mr. Peterson is with a girl from his school. Ella, If I heard properly. I am not with your son." I say rolling my eyes. He glares at me, and he seems as if he is about to hit me.

"I am certain, I heard your with him." He said threateningly, I cower back, and my back hits someones chest. By the all to familiar smell of his body axe, I know Bud is behind me. I turn to look at him, and he places a swift kiss on my cheek. I blush at the sudden movement.

"Hello, baby. Sorry I am late. I wanted to surprise you. You look stunning." He looks me in the eye, his amusement and anger to Tyler's dad is almost tangible.

"Sorry, Mr.Peterson. But I wish to steal my lady from you." He says with eyes of ice. I smile a small goodbye to Tyler's dad. He looked as if though the rug from under his feet is swiped. Probably truly thinking I was with Tyler. Even though I was, but right now I was Annabella. Who apparently is with Bud now.

"Thank you, I thought I was going to die." I say sighing in relief, once we are out of hearing rang. I throw my arms around Bud, who catches me with a laugh. "I didn't know you were coming, and I am so glad you did." I said smiling.

"So, are we going to duet together?" I asked, wiggling my eyebrows. Making it sound like I asked to 'do it'. Bud laughed, and explained that we would be preforming We can Learn to Love  Again. Bud stayed by my side for awhile longer, and I was shocked not to have scene Tyler yet. But once Bud left, saying he had to leave, as he only came for a little while. Tyler seemed to magically appear.

"Ms. Julliard." He said bowing. I laughed. "Mr. Peterson." I nod. My smile dims, as I remember his father. He seems to notice my frown, and asks what is wrong.

"I met you father. He was very..... Intimidating" I said pausing, when searching for the right word to describe him. "He thought I was with you." I said smiling. He seems very mad.

"I'm not, I'm hers" He says more to himself. Hers?

"I am sorry you had to meet him." He said sourly. I grin. "That's okay, I think Bud enjoyed the chance to stake his claim on me." I say grinning more. Tyler looks confused.

"Bud saved me from him, whisking me away from a very inappropriate and pestering topic." I said shrugging. Just then. Tyler grins.

"Would you like to dance?" He asked, motioning his hand for me to take. I nod and step into his arms.

"Do you know how?" I asked, he looked at me in shock, and mock outrage.

"I've been dancing since I was very young." He says smiling. With light conversation, the dance goes fast. But once we stop, his grin fades, and his jaw clenches, and his whole body shakes with anger. I look behind me, but see nothing. I turn to him, placing his cheek in my hand, to make him look at me. He looks with wide eyes.

"Whats wrong?" The worry comes in my voice, unbidden. He nods behind me. I see Scarlett and a man with dark hair and dark eyes coming toward us. I move to Tyler's side, as they approach us. In seconds Tyler turns into the asshole jock.

"Andrew, I heard you were going out with my ex." Tyler sneered at the mean looking man, that Scarlett was wrapped around. He asks, the man tenses, and I try not to laugh. I don't succeed, as I giggle escaped. His eyes trail down my body, and I feel violated. Tyler snakes his arm around my waist, and pulling me behind him, in a protective manor.

"Got your self a new toy I see?" He asks. Tyler snorted.

"She is with Bud, so keep your paws off of her." Tyler threatens. "How dose that used pussy feel?" He asks, I think he is throwing the man off of track.

"What can I say, After the first two inches it like new." He teased, Scarlett laughs. I smirk at the man. Tyler seems to frown at my smirk.

"Fuck you, brother " Tyler glares at him. It all clicks into place. This is Tyler's brother. What an asshole. I smirk, walking up to him. I laugh at how quickly he pushes Scarlett off of him, and opens his arms. As if I am about to climb on him. Arrogant ass. Instead I place a mock 'caring' hand on his arm.

"Oh good, Andrew. I am so relived to hear that the male enhancement, is working for you." I said with pretend sweetness. I walk away, not looking back. But a grin spreads across my face, as I hear the echo of laughter behind me. And the ring of skin slapping skin, and Scarlett screaming in outrage, that he pushed her away.
