I went inside again . Now everything seemed a little clearer . The first thing I had to do in the morning was to talk to Evan no matter what . I was a little prepared . The talk I had with jace outside calmed me down . I couldn't stop smiling I guess I was really happy after a long time . People started leaving the party . I looked at the beautiful decoration around me . It was perfect. The walls were of glass and they had beautiful crystal balls around the table . The chairs were while and the tables were coloured jet black . But what caught my eye was the wine collection . It was amazing . I always had a thing for wines . I went a little ahead . I suddenly wanted to drink wine . As I went near they had an amazing bar for wines only . You could just sit there and drink wine. I went and sat on one of the chairs . A guy was sitting besides me . He was admiring the wines . He was the only one sitting there .

He seemed moulded from a different cast as he had an androgynous look to uncommon to most people . He radiated energy and brio . His mountain cheekbones appeared chiselled  into shape by a master craftsman. They were of such sharp contours , it looked as if they were sculpted and pared to perfection . With eyes as bright as and spellbinding as lode stars , they were a sparkle of mirth and shone like two eternity blue jewels in snow . He was beautiful. He was different.

The bartender came up to  me and asked me the wine I wanted .

Can I have a glass of Mirabeau pure Provence rosé please ? I asked . He nodded and left .

I like that wine . It's very refreshing.
The guy said .

Yes ! It's one of my favourite wine . I said .

What's your name ? He asked .

Ella . And yours ? I asked . And the bartender came back with a glass of wine and he gave it to me .

Shay . He said .

Nice name shay . How are you here ? I asked .

My dad got me here . He said some girl was taking over the rodri architects and all . He forced me to come . I don't even know that girl . She must be somewhere enjoying her party . He said .

I was trying so hard to control my laugh . He dint even knew that it was me . I was Ella Rodri !

Hmm interesting ....  have you ever met that girl shay ? I asked .

No and trust me I am not interested either she must be some rich spoiled girl . I am so not ready to handle any tantrums you know!
He said.

And what if she isn't a spoiled girl ? I asked .

I don't know Ella ! She must be like all of the people over here . Trying to be perfect and all . He said .

I am sure she isn't like them . I said .

How are you so sure ? He asked .

Because maybe I am Ella Rodri. I said and winked .
He was suddenly blank . He had no idea what to say . I couldn't stop laughing . He looked at me and smiled .

I am sorry I guess I shouldn't have judged you . He apologised.

It's okay I forgive you . I am glad that I am different. I said .

Trust me you are Ella .he said.

I nodded and smiled . He was smiling too . We both now were just taking small sips of our wine .

So how old are you ? He asked breaking the silence .

I am 18 years old . I said

Oh that's great I am 19 .  He said .

But I never asked you . I said and started laughing . He just looked at me . I guess I shouldn't have said after just meeting him .

I am sorry don't take it in the wrong way please . I apologised .

And suddenly he started laughing . And I just looked at him . But I couldn't stop smiling . Now we both were just staring at each other . It was slow yet perfect . I enjoyed drinking wine with him .
My phone started vibrating . Mom was calling me . I had to pick up .

Yes mother I am coming . Chill I dint  run away . I said .

You should leave . your mother is waiting for you . He said .

Umm yes yes I should leave . I said . I actually wanted to stay and drink wine with him . But I guess I couldn't stay here longer either . I just smiled and he smiled back and I left .

It was perfect .
