Bruises, love and lies

Chapter 5: The angel, the devil and the magician

We arrive at Alex's house, well house isn't the exact word for his freaking huge mansion.

"How can someone even afford this?" I say with my mouth open to Lili as we get out of the car.

Lili laughs at my comment as we continue to walk to the front door, we ring the doorbell and I immediately regret coming here, I try to turn around and walk away but Lili holds my arm tight.

There was no way she was letting me go, I open my mouth to start arguing but before I can the door is suddenly swung open, and in front of us is pretty boy, wearing a.. costume? Is it really a costume? He's shirtless, wearing black pants, a black long magicians jacket, a black magicians hat, white gloves and a red bow tie.

"Hello sunshine, hello sunshine's friend." he says taking his hat of and bowing.

"Are you supposed to be a magician?" I say blurt out laughing thinking to our conversation earlier where he referred to himself as a magician.

"Well I'm a sexy magician." Alex says smirking.

I frown, "Please never say sexy again, I swear it's the stupidest word ever invented." I glance at Alex's toned muscular body, his really defined muscles and abs, his extremely deep V-line, his-

My thoughts are interrupted by Alex laughing, "See something you like Sunshine." he says winking at me.

I instantly feel my face heat up, "N-no." I answer him stuttering.

He laughs again, how can someone's laugh be this perfect?
Stop it Amelia, you can't fall for him, he's a player.

Alex takes a step back and looks at me from head to toe grinning.
Suddenly he leans in to my ear, "You look sexy tonight sunshine." he whispers in my ear winking after he steps back again.
"I-I-"

Before I can say anything else, Alex walks away.
This guy really likes walking away leaving me speechless.

Lili and I walk to the kitchen to get a drink. I'm not that big of a drinker so I get some juice, Lili on the other hand is gulping down red cups with alcoholic beverages.

"Lili slow down girl, don't get too drunk." I say to her after some time laughing at the amount of beer and shots she is drinking.

"I'm hungryyyy." Lili complains pouting at me, great she's drunk.

I look around to see if there is anything to eat. I spot a few pizza boxes and open one to get two slices for me and Lili, pepperoni pizza, my favorite.

I give Lili a slice and start munching on mine, I close my eyes enjoying the burst of tasteful flavors in my mouth.

"Lili, want another slice?" I ask her as soon as we're finished.

"Nah, it's partyyyy timeeee. Let's go danceee." she shouts at me already starting to dance, well she is really drunk.

We walk to the living room and start dancing.
In the midst of our dancing I feel someone coming up behind me, I turn around and see a man wearing a cop costume, about 23 years old, trying to grind with me.
I push him away in disgust but he comes back again holding my waist from behind, "C-c-come on baby, let's dance a little."
I smell the stench of alcohol from behind me and immediately think of my father, this is not going to end well.
I push him away again and try to get away, he grips my hand and yanks me to the stairs, "Let's have a little fun up in the bedroom."
Before I can scream for help the man is punched to the ground. I look up to see Alex clenching his fist, anger in his eyes, he holds his arm back to punch the guy again when I quickly step in front of him.
