Celine's p. O. V

The rest of the day till evening I was in phone talking to Amelia, Jeremy and my parents, telling them im away on a business trip. Debra watches me like a hawk. so far Jeremy has been good and doesn’t remember anything.in  the evening I opened the wardrobe ,taking out the bag and opening it  to revel a gorgeous champagne  stapless dress with a opening above the knee on one side. The dress flowed flawsless till the floor. I was admiring it in the mirror when I heard a knock . I opened it to find 3 girls who did my makeup the first day I came here.
…….

We had a good chat this time. I leant that two of them are Asians ,sally and vera and one is from Europe,julie.

once the make up was done and I was in my dress. I opened the door. “oh my god you look so beautiful” said Julie in her British accent. They rushed me in the full length mirror. I gasped when I saw my reflection. The dress was prefect fit. My hair was in a loose bun with few free hairs. My eyes had sparkly light golden shade with darck black mascara and eyeliner.
My lips were of pale peach. “we did a good job girls” sally said as they all high fived.vera gave me some accessories to go along with the dress. Finally touch was with light gold pumps.

I walked out of my room and reached the stairs of the hall where everyone were talking. I looked at them and my eyes instantly caught debra. She was amazing in here black dress. Dereck was with her talking. He was handsome as ever in his black suit so did alex. They were little further from end of the stairs.  As my heels clicked down the stairs, little by little people start to stare at me. as I was reaching the end the chatter died down and everyone’s attention was one me. alex had a big goofy smile on his face.

i ignored dereck keeping my eyes trained on alex and the other. But I knew he was looking at me. “ how do I look?” I asked alex as I stood in front of him. “telling beautiful will be like offending you” he said and I laughed. “thanks,shall we go?” I said to alex completing ignoring dereck who was standing besides me. two can play this game.
……….

I have never seen something so amazing  in my life.the architecture here is so marvelous. The white crystal chandleries sparkling and reflecting the rich cream wall. Blood red curtains hung there. The ball room was crowded  with VIPs. Never in my life I thought about going to a place of upper class. 

It was dinner time and I was sitting between alex and debra with dereck ,jake sat besides alex. Debra was keen on me probably waiting to rip my hair off because derecks eyes never left me . “bro whats up? You don’t look good.” Debra said. he sighned. “its Emily….we had a small fight” he said. “its normal between couples, these small fights revels how much you care about each other. I would love to met her. Is she coming?” I asked.

“well no, but she would be glad to met you” he said before giving a look to alex.We were having dinner with small chats. “congrats dereck” I heard a voice and saw a old man with bald head. “you hamiltons have always done a good job.” He said. his eyes then fell on me.there was something wronge with the way he looked at me. “chie’ questo?” (who is this?) he asked in Italian looking towards me. I looked at everyone at the table when no one replied. “ah..questa e’ la mira ragazza”(ah..this is my girlfriend) alex said. I heard a grasp from debra as dereck hold on the glass tighten. What is going on? I wish I had brought a translater. “si, really?” he said still looking at me with a raised eyebrow. “si,ti stai godenda la festa?”(yes, are you enjoying the party) he said to which the he nodded with a smile . with one last look at me he went.

“what the hell was that?” he yelled. “if I hadn’t said anything he might bid her and sell her off” alex said. “and you thought I would let anything like that happen” dereck growled making few heads of the near by table turn towards us. “jeez…dereck it slipped out, you are over reacting” alex said before turning to me. “im sorry I called you my girlfriend, it just slipped out . sorry” he said.i nodded and saw dereck . he was giving death glares to alex while debra was exchanging glance at me and dereck.

The table got quitter as none of them made any conversations. There was a thick unknown tension. Dereck eyes will linger on me few time before I caught him starring and he would look away.i excused myself to the restroom.

I looked at the mirror and blew loud breath to clam myself. i heared the door open and debra walked in.oh on this is bad. I reapplied my lipgloss. Debra started at me adjusting her hair. “celine ,right?” she asked and I nodded. “ I haven’t seen much of girls in the mansion before. Never as a guest.you must be special ” She said and I stared at her.  “the dress suits you .you look good” she said. “thanks..?” it came out of my mouth like a question. She smiled and turned to walk.

I shigned and stood there.After few minutes I reached the ball room.this time debra has moved to my place ,chatting with alex. I was left to sit near dereck on her place.i sat down and at the corner of my eyes I saw Dereck body go stiff.he was wantedly brushing his leg against  mine and I had hold tight grip on the table not wanting to slap his pretty face.

“what !?” alex grasped looking at debra as if he heard that today is the end of the world and everyone at the table looked at him. she just shrugged and went back drinking her wine. alex  had this ghost face looking at everyone . his eyes were on me longer than others like he was having a mental fight before he shook his head and started eating his dessert.

…………….

We were back in the home. Strange thing im calling this place as home but yet I feel so safe and comfortable here. I didn’t feel like sleeping. I decided to go and get some air. So I walked towards the living room remembering there was balcony . there were dim lights in the living. i opened the glass door looking at the moon . “hey cupcake” I heard a voice. I turned to see Dereck at the corner with his signature smile plaster on his face. he he stood leaning on the grill with a bottle of beer in his hand. Oh no drunken dereck, not good. NOT AT ALL!. I clenched my jaw and crossed my arms across my chest . I turned my head away completing ignoring me. “are you angry on me or something?” he asked coming closer towads me. I still didn’t reaply. “it okay, I will make everything go away” he said brushing my cheek with his knuckles and gave a small peck on my neck. I pushed him away. “WHAT THE HELL DERECK!?, you kiss me for a moment and then ignore me the next.what are we dereck?” my voice broke at the end. He threw the bottle on the wall and I flinched. He ran his finger threw his hair severely time. “im sorry ,I wasn’t thinking straight . forget what ever happened.” He said before storming out.i held back my tears not wanting cry over him as I bit my lips.
