[Book 2] Game of Love

CHAPTER 1

We happily clap our hands to the scene in front of us. Kinzy has finally found his happiness, his forever, since he asks Ethan's hand so that means he finally found his forever. It's been 6 months and I know Kinzy made the right choice in not letting go of Ethan's hand. We are very happy for him, as his best friends we support him, them actually and wish them the best. We didn't expect that one of these days, Kinzy the Great will come on bended knees to ask someone like Ethan to be with him for the rest of his life. Well, let us say that, we didn't see it coming. The way Kinzy talks about Ethan and the way Ethan looks at Kinzy, no doubt, they were destined for each other. How I wish I could also found my forever as soon as possible.

I turned into my side and see the one I'm longing to be with for the rest of my life, I wish but I know not all wishes do come true. Sometimes you just have to give it up and move on not wanting to hurt yourself even more than that someone is hurting you. For the past seven years, I've been in love with that someone but sad to say, not all love is meant to be returned.

Sigh! Here I am again. I know I shouldn't think of it but the more I told myself not to think about it, the more I long, wish and crave to be with that person. It's awful, I know.

I feel someone is tapping on my shoulder, snapping me from my thoughts. I turned around and smile to this person who can make every flower bloom in excitement to see his face. He hugs me from behind and I can't suppress myself from giggling.

"This is so gay," he commented while burying his chin into the crook of my shoulder.

"Shut up," I just said.

"So you like it?"

"You don't really have to ask me dude," I said while rolling my eyes to him. I love it when he hugs me like this as if we were a couple in a movie scene.

"I love it too," he said while grinning

"Asshole" and we both laugh softly.

"Okay, so we better get going before they flip the whole island to find us."

I nodded to him. "Alex,"

He turned to me with a sweet smile telling me that I don't have to worry because he loves me, "Yeah?"

"Thank you," I said sincerely while squeezing his hand.

"You don't have to, you are my best friend and I want you to be happy. Though you wish that I am him," he added.

We both laugh.

He's the only person who knows me, who knows my secret that I keep for the past seven years and I'll keep it forever. He keeps me to my feet every time I feel like I'm flowing out of my system. He keeps me from standing my ground every time I am around with that someone I am secretly in love with. He is the one I can freely talk to with when it comes to that someone and so I'm thankful with him.

We walk to the hotel hand in hand as Caspian announces that we should have a party to celebrate the newly engaged couple. Well, Kinzy said it's not yet the engagement but if we think of that as it is then it is fine. He proposed to Ethan to be with him forever, what did he think of it? Crazy bastard as always! But he is lucky to have Ethan. So damn lucky!

We celebrate the beginning of their journey to forever together at the bar in which Caspian closes it for us alone. Well, he can do that since this is his property. Drinks flooded the area and naked girls were dancing around as we danced too in Shin's beat as wet bodies soaking and slamming against each other as they sway their bodies, hands up and jumping to the music.

I dragged my slightly tipsy body out of the circle, out of Alex's grip in my waist to the counter. I was leaning on the counter with my ninth shot of tequila in my hand I ordered from the bartender who tend to me. I love tequila, why? I don't know. Maybe it's because I can totally forget what happen and start the day tomorrow like nothing happens the other night. I grinned to myself.
