Adriana's POV
Honestly, If I'd knew what i did that made Antonio completely ignore my calls and emails I'd take it back. Chloe said she had no idea either that the only email from him were formal or the ball invitations.
"C'mon Kay we are gonna be late. Get down here" April yelled for the fourth time today.
She looked amazing in an Angel outfit complete with the wings, halo and it was so sexy Henry couldn't keep his hands to himself. It wasn't hard to notice that they both had something for each other even if April would soon tie the knot with someone who isn't him. Henry had on a God like costume with a white beard.
"So guys are like what? god and his little angel" I asked
"Yup" Henry replied popping the 'p'
"Gosh I look horrible" I heard Khalil sulk.
My eyes landed on him coming down the stairs.
"And I have no idea who I'm supposed to be"
"Your clyde duhh" April told him
"And she's bonnie" Henry pointed towards me.
Khalil's eyes turned to me as he took a good look at me. Starting from my brown beret on top my white Bob wig to my yellow top which had an inappropriate cleavage but a scarf was over it to my brown velvety skirt that stopped high thigh with my fishnet leggings and black heels. In short, I looked spectacular.
His eyes darkened when we finished taking me in before someone cleared their throat.
"jeez Khalil save those looks for when you get back" April said pushing Henry and Khalil out the door with me following behind.
A smile came to my face when my eyes landed on Damien in his blue scrubs.
"Nurse? Really?" He kissed both my cheeks. Boy was he drunk.
"Yeah." His eyes took me in before they went behind me.
"You got Khalil all dressed up. That's a new one" He said before hugging Khalil who then put his arms around me.
"Happy birthday bro" Khalil said, taking a red cup from April.
"Y'all have fun and shitt. Get drunk, get high, get laid I don't give a fuck. Just don't disturb me papa gonna get laid today!" Damien screamed at us before walking away.
"You look fire babe" Khalil whispered, tracing his fingers on my neck. I clenched my thighs together laced my fingers in his and dragged him to the bar.
"Tequila" I ordered the bartender but his eyes landed on Khalil.
"Boss. We ain't never see you around anymore" The bartender placed my drink in front of me, changing his attention back to Khalil.
"Yeah. I've been busy. Let me have lemon water"
Lemon water?
"Yes sir "
"Lemon water?" I asked Downing my Tequila. The burn. I liked the burn. I needed it anyways my life's been a bit messy lately.
With Diana showing up out of nowhere to Antonio ignoring me to me saying 'I love you' and him not saying it back.
I mean I get it. We weren't there there yet but c'mon the urge for coffee has returned and its weighing me down. I expected at least anything but he just brushed it like it was nothing.
"Yeah I'm not ready to get high tonight. Got some paintings to finish" Khalil responds, dropping his hat on the table, taking a sip of the damn lemon water.
He had on a suit twice his size plus a brown hat and damn everything looks good on him.
It's like my lifes getting fucked up, his lifes getting perfect piece by piece. I'm happy for him I could feel no other way, I mean he began painting after a long time it's good amazing intact. My life has never been so out of line before I feel like I need to do something before it gets messed up more.
"Want to dance?" Khalil said extending his hands towards me doing a little salsa.
It made me laugh a little
"You do know your a terrible dancer"
"Says you. C'mon show me what you got" I smile and lead him to the dance floor.
The music shakes the building I feel it from under my feet cause I removed my heels, Khalil places his hands on my thighs and draws me closer. We begin moving slowly to Nick jonas and Tove lo's close, I grind him slowly before turning around wrapping my hands around his neck. His tongue glided the top of his bottom teeth when he smirked making my insides flutter. I then kissed him his tongue seeking control which I give willingly.
"Just get a room motherfuckers" Henry tells from the other side of the room.
"Shut the fuck up Henry" I yell back.
Khalil's tummy rumbles when we reach the counter. We laugh and he kisses the back of my palm.
"I'm hungry babe"
"Yeah me too" I confess
We leave few minutes later after disturbing Damien a whole lot. Honestly I had fun today the kinda fun I haven't had in a while.
Currently we were having dinner in Bobby's diner, fries and burgers exactly. This dinner had bad memories but I was ready to make new ones. The diner hadn't really changed alot, the same Beach house song played. People scattered all over the diner at two PM discussing quietly.
"How long did you work here?"
"I think a year and four months. I needed the cash" I reply taking a bite from my burger.
"So you met him her huh?" Khalil asks sipping his milkshake, keeping his eyes on me while he twitched his nose. He only twitched his nose when he was either cold or nervous.
"Yeah that one exactly" I point at the booth Mason always stayed in, my eyes lingered there a little more than usual. Khalil scotted over to my side of the booth and stretched his hands behind my head, twirling my hair with his fingers.
"About Yesterday" Khalil said close to whispering
I faced him
"What about it?"
"You know I care about you" He starts out
I tug his suit jacket, he had given me earlier, tighter to me inhaling his cologne.
"I do"
He runs his hands through his hair, his blue eyes refusing to meet mine. I place my fingers on his lips.
"You don't need to say it till your ready. I felt ready so I did so take all the time you need I'm not going anywhere"
He relaxes then takes my fingers and kisses them
"Thank you babe"
I notice his index finger now had a ring on it
"New ring"
"You noticed. Well Its hard not to know these fingers do things to you" He licks his lips and smirks.
I laugh softly
"Asshole" I mumble
He laughs
"I got a pair for you right here" He pulls out a plain silver ring from his pocket and it fits perfectly in my index finger.
"Its been long I wore a ring" I squeak, my palm covers my mouth trying to hide my uncontrollable blush creeping, heating up my cheeks.
"First off your not doing any justice covering up. Your whole face is pink. Then it's better you prepare for the real deal cause this ring finger is going to carry a ton" He winks.
