The Sweet Fall Of A Billionaire {SFAB}

4. Unexpected Feelings

Okay. Enough is enough.
As if Adrian Parker's entry in my life was not enough, today does not fail to surprise me. I mean what the actual fuck.

Kylie and Theo are, were and will be the most complicated relationship ever to exist on planet earth, after me and Adrian of course.

What on earth were these two thinking and doing. They have been together and apart and I don't know what was better ? Them together or broken up but this whole thing that they have got going is a little too much.

Also, now that I notice, Adrian and I are in a delicate position. He is holding me from behind, my back is to his chest, and we are closer than we should be, than we have been in 2 years, than he - a taken man should be with me.
He is holding me in a surprisingly gentle manner, and I can feel his fresh minty breath on my neck and I can feel my heart beating out of its cage. I can feel his throbbing heartbeat too. Am I doing this to him or is he just too shook seeing what I'm seeing.
I go with the latter, even though I can feel him staring at me, waiting to make a move.

I get out of his hold and try to support myself by standing up straighter. He senses this and lets me go. Thank god I can not see his face, or I would be red as a tomato right now. And also thank the Lord for him, not making an inappropriate comment on this.
Things have certainly changed around here and it's all because of Adrian fucking Parker.

"What the hell are you guys doing ?" both of us scream at the same time. We look at each other, and we both are fuming at the current situation.

Basically, when Theo and Kylie broke up, it was a mess. Actually, nobody but us and Asher knew about them and suddenly after their break up, they started avoiding each other, not going to parties and functions and this drew some suspicion from our respective families. Me and Adrian had to handle everything and I mean every fucking thing. They were in a downward spiral and we made it our responsibility to pull them out of it. We succeeded, it took some time, some school leaves and unattended classes to look after them, but we did it.
And now we see this, what the actual fuck?

Kylie and Theo are surprised and in a shock, Theo releases his hand from her butt and she removes herself from him, putting some distance between them. They are clearly transfixed because they clearly didn't want anyone to know and what better time when everybody is out of the house except your younger siblings. Such idiotic people.

Me and Adrian form a team, standing together with our arms crossed and a pissed off look on our faces. I'm tapping my foot impatiently as I wait for an explanation.

"Ari, we have an explanation for all of this"
Theo tries to calm me down as Kylie just wouldn't keep an eye contact with me. She is too humiliated, not to be with Theo but to be caught by their siblings.

"You better" Adrian speaks for me. I'm just avoiding speaking for a while, because I'm very angry and I might say the wrong thing. Adrian understands this and a sudden feeling of gratitude for him comes over me.
Wait, are we talking about gratitude for Adrian.
Hell to the no.

Ky finally looks up to measure the degree of anger on my face. I'm an open book, whatever I'm feeling, it is on my face.
Explains why I cannot, for the life of me win any poker games.

"Ariana, can I talk to you alone" Ky says, her voice so small, like a whisper I can barely hear and I sense her vulnerability, so I nod and start walking towards my room on the first floor. Kylie follows immediately.

As I turn, I see Theo trying to speak to Adrian, and Adrian just balling his fists, trying to tone it down, his jaw clenched and mouth set in a firm line. I have this sudden urge to diffuse the environment but I have my hands full and they need to sort their shit out like I do mine.
I shake my head and continue the awkward journey towards my room.
