ON HOLD:Ethereal Elle

Chapter Twenty Eight, Grief

After Imogen had made her point that she can control any boy she wants to. She smirked at Ace before kissing his cheek. I rolled my eyes knowing why she did this. Ace stood still, watching her walk off to the smoking area. Gregg glared at him and Ace held up the middle finger in his direction. Ace felt like he was being judged, but he deserved it.

Ace grabbed a shot that was sitting on the table where the boys were standing, he necked it quickly and then headed onto the dance floor. I barely realised what was going on as he was moving so quickly. I widened my eyes as he approached Elle who was still dancing alone. He tapped her on the shoulder and she turned around with a wide smile on her face, which quickly disappeared and became a glare of confusion.

"Hey!" Ace shouted with a smile, Elle brought her hand to his cheek before wiping it with her thumb. She showed him the lipstick marks that were now on her hand and he laughed nervously.

"Forgot to wash your face?" She asked with a giggle. I watched from afar, unaware of what they were saying but seeing that she'd noticed the kiss on his cheek. I wanted to run over there and punch him straight in the face, but I held everything in and let them be.

I suspected that she was asking him who had kissed his cheek, or if it was Imogen. But that wasn't happening at all.

"You wanna go for a walk? I need out of here" Elle asked Ace, he stared at her weirdly before nodding. He thought that she'd be upset with Imogens kiss but to his surprise she barely reacted. Elle took Aces hand and headed toward me, I watched them in shock before Elle spoke to me.

"We are going for a walk. I'll text you, okay? No drinking!" Elle said before cuddling me tightly and walking off, I nodded and watched them leave.

"What the fuck is going on?" I said outloud while sipping on my fourth coca cola of the night.

They quickly left the club without telling anybody else, even the birthday boy. Elle sighed with relief once they were outside and able to hear properly again even though her ears were ringing aggressively.

"Are you alright?" Ace asked her as she bent over slightly, gasping for air.

"I'm good. I just needed to get out of there for a while, it's a lot to take in" Elle responded while glancing back at the club. She looked around the street they were stood on, realising that this certain club was in the middle of nowhere.

"Why didn't you guys choose a club that was in the town? Bit stupid" Elle asked him while laughing, he stared at her weirdly and shook his head.

"Well nobody ever leaves a club to go for a walk. You may be the first in history to do so" Ace told her while raising his eyebrows and beginning to walk down the dark country road, Elle grinned and followed after him. Ace turned on the torch on his phone and took Elles hand as they walked quietly, both of them feeling somewhat anxious.

Elles phone began to vibrate in her bag which made her immediately stop walking and start digging for it. She was worried that it could've been me texting her, telling her I'd had a drink. Elle looked at her messages and sighed with relief to see that it wasn't from me, but Robyn.

"How come you didn't tell me that you were going out with all of the popular music boys? You never tell me anything these days! Is Diana with you?"

Elle rolled her eyes and Ace watched her before laughing.

"Who was it?" He asked as she ignored Robyns message and put her phone back into her bag. They continued to walk once again.

"Robyn, she is wondering why I didn't invite her out tonight. She thinks I'm ditching her for the 'popular music boys'. It's annoying" Elle explained with an eye roll, Ace laughed loudly as he listened to her.
