Aria POV:
I pulled up at my brothers house and it was already 9:30. I talked to Ryder in the way and he had no issues with the extra people. He said he got 2 tables reserved anyway. I told him I'd be running late as well. I jumped out of the car and ran into my brothers house and everyone was already there. They were in the kitchen taking shots pregaming.
"Hey little cuz!" Mikey grabbed me in for a side hug. "Nice of you to finally join." I rolled my eyes. "Well sorry, someone had to bake the desserts for tomorrow." He got a grin on his face. "Did you make those walnut cookies?" I nodded "how about baklava?" I nodded again. "What about those bow tie ones?" I smacked him on the shoulder. "Yes, yes, yes I made all your favorites plus a few pies. Now leave me alone so I can go get ready!" He chuckled but passed me a shot of Hennessy first. I downed it and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower.
I put on a sheer long sleeved top with a high easier pink skirt and wore my Christian louboutin black heels. I let my hair air dry into is natural waves and just did nude eyeshadow and lipstick. I added black eye liner and mascara. I walked out and into the kitchens and Danny and Lucas almost choked on their drinks. "Damn girl!" Lucas said and my brother and Mikey smacked him upside his head. "What the fuck?" He said as he was rubbing the back of his head. My brother said "that's my fucking baby sister!" He just shrugged but kept eying me out.
I poured us all a shot and we cheered and slammed them back. "Okay boys, it's already 10:30, let's go!" Danny then asked "we taking an Uber?" "Well, I'm driving my car, but I don't think we'll all fit." Danny responder first "you got a car?" I looked down and gave a quick nod. My brother chuckled "wait till you see her car. You're gonna piss yourself with excitement." I rolled my eyes at my brother. Then Mikey said, "why don't we just take my truck? We can Uber back and pick up my car in the morning." We all nodded. He's got an Escalade so we can all fit comfortably.
We walked outside and I was blocking my cousins truck. "Let me move my car real quick." When I u locked it my cousin and brothers friends mouths dropped. "How the fuck did you get that car?" Danny asked. I just ignored him and the rest. I pulled out of the driveway and let Mikey pull out and then parked my car back into the driveway. We all got into the truck and the questions started flowing and I really didn't want to talk about it. Maybe I should just sell this car but I love it. I'm just tired of the questions, accusations and comments. I finally snapped when these guys wouldn't stop badgering me "can you all shut the fuck up! It's just a fucking car! Leave it alone already!" That shit everyone up real quick.
We found a parking spot about a block away. My cousin didn't want to valet since he was planning on getting drunk and getting an Uber back to my brothers place. As we walked to the entrance the line was all the way down the street. So grateful Ryder already got tables. We walked past the line and over the the VIP ropes. "Names please, the bouncer asked. "Aria Petrakis, we are guests of Ryder Smith." His eyes popped open. "Of course, right this way. He lead us to a private elevator. "The host will meet you upstairs and show you to the table, Mr. Smith is already there waiting. Enjoy your night."
