Mistakes ||Sequel to Party||

2

Charlie's POV:
We have just set up the last things and the party will start in just a few minutes. I'm really excited, maybe 'cause I like parties... But I really hope that Leondre will have a good time too.

Suddenly Leondre comes out of the bedroom. He's wearing a white shirt with the upper buttons open, black ripped jeans and a black tie wrapped around his neck. He looks absolutely stunning, I've almost never seen him in anything else than hoodies and ripped jeans. Now he's wearing a shirt!

"Wow." I gasp as my eyes get wide.

"What?" Leondre asks casually and walks past me to get his phone on the table in front of the couch.
"You- I-" I start, but I can't form words. He sits down on the couch and looks up at me with a cheekily smile.
"Anything you wanna say?" He asks grinning.
"You just look absolutely amazing!" I explain and walk up to him. I sit down in his lap, straddle over his legs and look him in the eyes.

"Well, you don't look too bad yourself." Leondre grins.
"Someone a bit flirty today?" I ask and kiss his soft lips while grinning.
"Someone a bit too turned on?" Leo asks back and I immediately blush. I didn't even realize that. Okay, this is awkward... "It's okay, babe. I love you too."

Then he plants a kiss on my lips just before the doorbell rings.
"Leo!" I hear Harvey's voice yell from the kitchen. I can see how Leondre immediately starts to panic a bit and gets really nervous.
"It's okay, babe." I mimic him. "I'll be right behind you."
He nods slowly and we both stand up, walking out to the hallway.

Harvey and his girlfriend open the door and a few people are walking into the apartment. I take Leo's hand as we walk over to them.
"Charlie! Hey!" One of the guys yell and I look over to them. Mike. Oh god. I didn't know that he was coming.
"Hey, Mikey! What are you doing here?" I reply happily and pull him into a hug.
"Harvey invited me." He says and I look over to Harvey who grins at me.

Me and Mikey have known each other since pre-school. And we have gone in the same class ever since.
Me, Harvey and Mike was the 'bad boys' in high school, which gave me fun memories from good times, but even memories I wish I could just forget...

"Is this your new little friend?" Mike asks and shake hands with Leo.
"Boyfriend, actually." I smile and he gives me a confused smile.
"Oh... Since how long?"
"Two years on Sunday."
"So you don't care about the ladies anymore?" He asks.
"No, I already have my princess." I grins and place my arm around Leondre's shoulders. I pull him closer to me and kiss him on the cheek.

"Well, I'm happy for you." Mikey says smiling, but I think I can see a bit of disappointment in his face.
Then he walks away and the party starts after a while.

***

Me and Leo sits on the couch in the living room, drinking beer, even though he said he wouldn't.
I made sure to look the bedroom door since I don't want any unexpected guests in there...

"How are you?" I ask looking over to Leondre who's sitting right beside me. He wakes up from his thoughts without looking up at me.
"Yeah... Why wouldn't I be...?" Leo asks slowly, like he isn't really there.
"You're so distance." I answer, trying to get eye contact.
"I'm fine." He replies without any emotions in his face.

"I really hope you are, 'cause I just want you to have a good time." I say a bit worried.
Now Leondre looks up at me.
"I promise you, I have. Thank you for fixing this party for me."
Leo leans forward and kisses me on the lips. I place my beer on the table and stand up after we pull away.
"Come on, let's go dancing." I smile and Leo immediately takes my hand as I pull him up from the couch.

Leondre's POV:
Me and Charlie walk over to the 'dance floor' just as a slow song comes on.
I think it's kinda cute when he worries so much about me. I am having a good time, I really am. Even though it might look like I don't.
I just haven't been to a party before, except that one where I met Charlie and Harvey, so I don't really know how to act.

Charlie places his hands on my hips while I wrap my arms around his neck. In the beginning we just stand there a bit awkwardly, moving slowly to the music. But then we get more and more comfortable and I eventually pull him closer to me.
"I think that girl over there checks you out." Charlie grin, looking behind me. I slowly turn around and see a girl with strawberry blonde, straight hair wink at me while waving excited with her fingers.

I sigh awkwardly and turn back around to Charlie.
"Well, I'm not interested." I say as I place my forehead against Charlie's shoulder. He just giggles. I love his laugh. So much.
"I love you." Charlie says, like he really means it and I know he does.
"I love you too."
