Contract Agreement With My Bestfriend

Chapter 14: Lacey's Party

***WARNING! MENTION OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT***

I tried to calm myself.

No matter how hard it is for me, I don't want to ruin this night.

I knew this was going to happen eventually.

I breathe deeply and then wipe my face clean.

I sighed and check myself in the mirror for the last time before walking out of the rest room.

I was just right on time when they turn on the lights.

Everyone was screaming surprise..

I did the same.

My eyes spotted Sarah on the middle.

She was really happy.

I walked closer to her.

She notice me immediately.

She held my hand.

"I have great news!" She said estatically.

I already know what it was but I pretended to be clueless.

I'm sure she'll tell me that their relationship is official now.

Endure it Olivia.. just a few more hours. I said to myself.

Lacey was overwhelm with the surprise. She thank us all for our hardwork.

Sarah and I sat on the poolside.

She showed me a phone chain with a guitar design. Her initial was there "O ❤ S" I force another smile.

"Your brother is so sweet right?" She said giggling.

I nodded.

"I'm happy that you're happy." I said then look at the other side away from her gaze.

I can feel my tears forming again.

Sh-t!

I don't want her to notice it.

I stood up.

"Want to dance?" I asked.

She was surprised for a second.

But she stood up anyway when I pulled her up.

We dance casually.

The music was a happy bubbly song. Not sensual or anything.

She was jumping gleefully with the song.

I did the same..

We laugh at how silly we dance.

A few minutes later we took a break.

I was just drinking water.

I didn't plan to drink alcohol today. I still have a long travel tomorrow back to LA.

She got a call from Oli.

I gave her some privacy.

She walk outside of the house since the music was too loud.

I felt a hand caress my back.
