My Bodyguard

Chapter 10

Mia's POV

The hours turned into minutes, and it finally time to get ready for the Ball. My father didn't exactly tell me how to get the information, so why not have fun with it, right?

The dress hugged my body to all the right curves. A side slit down my dress showed my long legs, my v-neck top showing nearly my nipples if I decide to move around a bit. I turn to different angles watching my reflection. I don't look too bad.

A knock came from the door. "Come in!"

Killian walked in wearing a neatly set of suit, which fitted perfectly on his body. His hair was pushed back with some gel, making him more handsome.

"They are all waiting for you," he informs me.

Applying the last bit of lip gloss on my lips, I stalk to him, an innocent smile on my face. "You clean up well Killy," I tease, slightly placing my hand on his chest, and pulling away. I fell him stiffen up, which made me smirk at his direction.

He leads me downstairs, where everyone would be waiting for us. Everyone spoke among themselves looking very elegant. Leia would be meeting us at the Ball, which she has a surprise for me.

"You took your time sis," says Adam.

I stick my tongue at him, moving his tie to the centre. "I know. We don't just put on our clothes, and say we're finish," I said. "Anyway, is everyone ready?"

My dad clears his throat, getting all our attention. "Mia, Killian will be by your side the whole night, so if anyone asked who he is, say he's just a friend," my dad explains, checking his watch. "Right! Let's get going."

I feel a nudge on my shoulder. "Don't even think about it." 

I give him a shock expression. "What are you talking about?" I questioned, playing dumb. "Just stick to your secret girlfriend, and we'll take about butting in to people's business." He shakes his head, following dad in the car.

"Was this your idea?" Waiting for Killian to keep up, I continued. "If you wanted to spend more time with me, you could of just asked."

"No."

I roll my eyes. "We'll see about that," I challenge, stepping inside the car, Killian following behind.

The ballroom was in the theme of black. Black carpets. Black curtains. Black chairs and tables. Everything was black. He must love the colour black, if he decided to make the theme all black. Some people

Quiet music played in the background. Some couples swayed in the dance floor, whereas some seated at a table talking to some friends/guests.

"Mia!" Hugging Leia, she was wearing a tight sequin dress, hugging all her curves in the right places. Her makeup was the usual as mine. Something natural. "You look good bitch," she complaints, twirling me around.

I chuckle. "You look amazing Leia." I do the same to her. "So... any hint to what surprise you wanted to show me tonight." Her cheeks redden a bit.

"Actually, yes. Mia, guys... this is someone I met at the club the other night." A strawberry-haired boy stepped beside Leia, pacing her arm around her. "He's name is Connor." Crossing my arms, I try to intimidate him which works. He was a few inches taller then Leia, a smile that makes you want to question yourself.
