Billionaire's Childhood Love

LIV. Being Privileged

Joshua's POV:

I never expected this moment to actually happen.

I thought about it before and cautiously made my move to ensure it won't happen...but it did.

There she is...making out with Madison Everhart.

Okay, making out may be exaggerating, but they are kissing.

Ahmend pats my shoulder, "Thank you for dragging me here." He hugs me from the side.

"Woah," Tyson said again and continued to stare at them openly.

Steadily, Hailey's eyes open, and she turns her head. Her face is slightly red, and from what I can smell. They drank - a lot.

Hailey grin, one of those large stupid ones. Madison places her hand on Hailey's cheek. Immediately, I rushed towards them, "No. No. No," I said, pushing their faces apart. "Get your sister!"

Mason walks towards Madison and grasps her. "My little Hailey," Madison pouts while reaching for Hailey.

"Booooo!" Ahmend and Tyson scream.

I exhaled a sharp breath and glared at Mason. "I'll grab my sister," he said, unaffected by my looks. He held his sister and made his way towards the elevator.

I turn around to look at the two guys behind me. They glance at once another before doing rock-paper-scissors.

"Damn," Ahmend hiss before heading towards Taniyah. He stares at her and exhales, then bends his knees to lift her. "Holy shit. This girl is heavier than she looks."

Taniyah smacks his face, then nuzzles into his chest.

Tyson and I stifled a laugh.

"Let me grab Crystal," Tyson said. He bent down and carried Crystal. "Holy fuck. She's fatter than she looks!"

Crystal slapped Tyson's face.

He glared at her, but she continued to snore.

Tyson looked at me, "I think I lost in rock-paper-scissors."

"Crystal is heavy," I said.

Crystal slapped my face.

"Ha. You two got hit," Ahmend said teasingly.

Crystal slapped his face.

"How does she always do that?" Tyson asked.

I ignored the tingly sensation on my cheek. "It's sadly a talent."

Tyson shook his head before he made his way towards the elevator. "Oh. People experiment all the time. Don't worry about it."

"Dibs on the leftover alcohol," Ahmend said. He kicked someone's bag. I assume it belongs to Madison.

I smile faintly. I couldn't help it. It bothers me to see Hailey kiss another person - male and female. I sat down beside her and pinch her cheek, "And here I thought you were going to be safe in crowds."

Her face scrunches up, and she grumbles slightly. A deep frown made its way towards her face. She hit my hand lightly before snuggling close to my waist. I puff my cheeks and blow out a breath. "I should've just confessed instead of asking for your parents' permission."

Exhaling a sharp breath, I lift Hailey. Sometimes, I miss it. The weight on her body. It's not bad that she's skinny now, but I miss the softness when I hugged her.

After I tucked Hailey into bed, I went back towards my room. Ahmend and Tyson were drinking the leftover alcohol.

Ahmend looks at me, "You in?"
