Finding Love (Bastard Princess)

"Lance Birthday" (Part 3)

Chapter 20

When everyone was introduced and offered their  greetings at each other, the Hollywood kid's excused themselves for a while. They have some interview to attend at lunch so we will be having them later at night for the birthday  party. Nicole and Kaiser chose to fail with them cause they have to check some reservation for their hotel accommodation for a week.

The kids are gone, what now? All eyes were glaring at me.

"So.... Um.. Can.. You know? Um, can we eat now? I'm hungry!" I mumbled in stammered way. I race for my life inside the house and before they can get me, I locked the main door and they all shouted for my name. I was like, 'what the fuss!' I'm so dead in questions right now. I sat on that land where I stand, behind the door.

"Hey Zia! Want to explain?" Kevin howl at me. Behind him were the other guys. I assume they used the other doorway. Now I hate house with a bunch doors.

"Kevin, leave her alone for now, haven't you heard? She's hungry.." Lance contradicted Kevin on confronting me.

"Hunger is her excuse when she's nervous, afraid, and conscious. Let's feed her before we struck her on the spot." Brian said. "She might faint if we push her to explain." is he mad at me? He has been quite since the kids' arrival. And now he's furrowing at me with disgusts. I run to the kitchen and took some food from the fridge. Unfortunately, my clumsiness snaps at me. I stumbled on the chairs and my fruit salad hovered in the air, and knocked me down. I heard footsteps approaching on my path.

"Is this how grown up act this day's?" Brian snapped at me and hated me to stand. "I understand now why you know nothing in households, young princess??" he was back to his old self, rudeness. "It's okay that you can't make food, but please! Don't play with them when you know somebody spends his time on making them!" he's really mad..

"I didn't mean to stumble..." I bristled.

"Yeah.. Of course, like you didn't mean that you know nothing?!" He gritted his teeth after his run-in.

"What is your problem with me?" I bustled at him. He was really furious.  I don't understand his temper. "Why are you so mad at me?"

"He's not mad at you, he's mad at Kulliens. Talia left him for Kulli-"

"Shut up Kevin! Will you?!" he hisses. Now I know why he looks at him in disgust. But Kulliens didn't even like Talia.

"Dude, she bears the right to know."

"Oh yea! Like, we also have the right to know about her being touched to the twins?!"

"You're being childish Brian." Lance said.

"Just leave us alone!" Brian barked at him. I'm not really used to hear voices  shouting. I covered my ear and I was really, really shaking.

"Brian.. Zia has nothing to do with your breakup with Talia. Stop being such a whiny baby. And Collins is now engaged with-"

"Yeah, with a non showbiz breed? He left Talia! He played her and-"

"Do you still love her?" I cut him out. I have to ask that, even his action is really a big yes as the answer. I was actually already in process of getting use for his sweetness, and his... kisses.  "I guess I'm right, you still do." everyone was in silence. Lance and Kevin on his side, Dave and Jude at their back staring at me. Brian's eyes glaring at me.

"If you genuinely love her that much, you don't need to get mad at me or Kulliens. He never liked Talia! Like ever! And he will never be playing anyone!" I was shaking in defeat. Defeat because I was defeated. I thought he liked me, I thought he really care for me, I thought we were fine, I- damn it! Stupid tears! I don't really like him. I really don't like him. I don't like him!

But you are jealous.

Or perchance I do... like him. What happened to the other side of him? What about those sweetness? Those kisses? How about me..?

"Excuse me..." I cried, and walk towards  the door to exit the kitchen.  Jude walked me to the guest room where I'm about to stay.

"Are you okay Zia? You're crying." Jude sang in a distressed voice.

"My right foot hurts..." it's really hurt, but I felt numb about it,  what hurts me more, is the fact that he still loves her, he still cares for her, and I was nothing. Just like, I know nothing. Sounds funny right?

"Okay, I'll call Dave. He can help you ease the pain in your foot." Jude exited the door.

"Just beautiful Zia... how could you be so clumsy on this occasion?!" I told myself. I slammed my back in bed. I just sigh and think about him..

You miss him don't you?

just shut up! Will you?! I don't understand why people have a second mind torturing your inner mind thinking?

Because people need a balanced mind of their thinking.

Oh mind...

[Brian's P.O.V.]

Everybody exited the kitchen door, except Dave.

"Dude, what were you thinking?" among others, Dave is the only one who can snap at me when I'm wrecked. "What was that all about? I know this isn't about Talia anymore.." and he is the lone one who can read me in an instant. "What you've done, was childish! Just childish dude! And if Zia was clumsy a while back, dude, you were a baby then, whining at her!"

"Stop calling me a baby!" I hissed.

"Of course you hate it. Just like, how Zia hates it when she's being called a kid." I just sigh. I guess she got me there at heart. Just hearing  her name makes my heart beat fast.

"Hey guys!" Jude walked in.

"Hey man. How is she?"

"Oh, so now you care? Dude, I don't get you!?" he frowned.

"I know. Just answer me man!"

"She hurt her right foot. I told her I'll bring Dave for help."

"Okay, let's go!" I snapped. I know I was being unfair to her a while ago. Hell! She even think that I'm still in love with Talia! I need to see her! Talk to her! I have a lot of explaining to do. Just when I made my first step to the doorway, Dave held my hand to stop.

"What?!" I snapped.

"You're not going anywhere.." he sang.

"I want to see her! I need to be with her! I'm so-"

"In love with her!? Yea, we know that! But boy! You're being cheesy!"

"Being with her is not cheesy Jude!" I hissed.

"Oh yes it is!" Dave snapped. "infact! In your state, you need to think first about what you've done to upset her, and maybe you also try to reckon about, how will you make up with her, and how will you explain to her that you were just jealous about her being called a fairy by her Hollywood model friend, named Kulliens.! Plus! Your jealousy is beyond yourself that you can't think straight that's why you made her think that you still care for Talia, caused of the issue involving Kulliens as the reason of your breakup with her! Understand?!" Dave prated.

"Boy, that was long! Hell! i knew it! you love her!" Jude smacked my chest with his fist.

"The hell with you Jude!" Jude laughed at me.

"Dude you're inlove!!" i was about to smack Jude back, but Dave stopped me.

"Stop it you two! I'm going to her now, and Brian, you're not coming with me, that's the deal!" I want to contradict, but he's right. I have to clear my mind first.

"okay, but, bring her food, she might hungry by now. She only had pancake this morning." and my kisses... she gave me her first ever attempt kiss! hell! i miss her.. her touch, her smell, her warmness, and her lips.. Jeezz!!

i made a tray of her favorite food, and shoved them to Dave for her. Dave fleed to her room. now i need to think on how will i make up with her..?
