The Queen's Weakness

14. Party Hook-ups and Bitter Quarrels

CHAPTER 14
Party Hook-ups and Bitter Quarrels

WARNING: As the title suggests, there are going to be a few steamy scenes in between. I can't put a warning sign before every one of them because there a lot of them. So....... enjoy. 

I had fixed goals for tonight's party: wear a hot dress that could give any guy a boner, get totally hammered and then have sex with a random guy that I won't ever be seeing again; three steps to having a Blake-free mind for the night. 

Forgetting about a guy you love is not easy even if it's just for one night. But you could always try. 

Unless he shows up at your doorsteps right before the night begins.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him. 

"I miss you." He replied as he stepped closer to me. 

"I just texted you in the morning." I pointed out.

"No, I texted you and you replied with one-word answers." He corrected. 

"Lynne, don't you think I've noticed that you've been avoiding any real conversations with me for the past one week?"

"I was really busy with school and I couldn't get distracted by you and your sex crazed thoughts." I reasoned. 

"You can't lie to me, Lynne. I know this about the ball."  

When I didn't reply, he stepped even closer and cupped my cheeks in his hands. 

"If you don't want to talk about whatever is bothering you, you don't have to tell me anything right now." He said to which I nodded. 

"But promise me that you'll tell me everything whenever you're ready." He said.

"At the right time, I will." I told him with a smile. 

A right time that will never come if he ends up falling for that good for nothing piece of shit. 

With a smile, he pulled me into a warm hug and he rested his head on top of mine which leaned against his chest.

"Don't ever avoid me like that again. Do you know how hard it was for me?" He mumbled into my hair.

"I'm sorry." I said. 

He pulled away from the hug and looked at me. "Are you ready for the party?" 

"Nope, I need to find something good to wear." I said as I started walking upstairs to my bedroom.

"What's wrong with what you're wearing now?" He asked as he followed up behind me. 

"It's not good enough." I said, looking at the mirror once I reached my room. 

"I think you look amazing." He said as he hugged me from the back. 

"But I need something that would dazzle everyone. Not just you." 

"But they don't matter. I'm the one who's going to take it off you anyways." He said as he softly kissed my neck. 

"Who said anything about you being the one to do that?" I asked. 

"Lynne, you've barely even talked to me for the past one week. So, I want tonight to be about just the two of us. No other guys and no other girls. What do you say?" He asked as he turned me around to face him. 

I wanted to say yes to that, but I had to keep my goals in mind. Tonight was supposed to be a Blake-free night. It was about time that I finally got a grip on myself and let go of these stupid feelings.
