Chapter 15

"Are you following me" I scowl.

"I was just looking for you. Let's go. Our dance is pending" he said grabbing my hands against my will and dragged me through the crowd. 

"I'm done dancing with you." I pulled my hand away from his grip.
"You ruined my hairs and now I have to fix it"

"It doesn't matter. You look gorg-" he was cut off when someone called him.

"Alex!" I looked over his shoulder and saw one perky woman of our age in an elegant white gown approaching us.

"Where were you! I was looking for you the whole time. You suddenly disappeared without bothering to inform me. And you were not even answering my damn call" she was blabbering, completely ignoring my presence.

"I was busy" he grinned looking at me. "Ana meet Rebecca. And Rebecca this is Ana my friend and ex-manager"

"Best friends. Not just friends" she corrected him and he chuckles softly.

"Oh, Rebecca Brooks. We finally meet. Alex talks about you a lot" she smiles looking at me and I being me did not respond. 

And I tell a fake smile when I see one.

"Hey! I never do that" Alex protest.

Why would he do that? After that horrible day, he never bothers to call or text. He never approached, not that I expected him to do. He was busy in his own life, fucking and doing whatnot. The thought of it surges the anger within me.

"N-No. It came out wrong. I did not mean that. I used to I mean... Sorry...I missed you... But. She is annoying I don't know what am I telling. Sorry. I-"

And his best friend laughed, cutting him off.

"He is so cute sometimes" she pinched his cheeks and he grins scratching the back of his neck. For an unknown reason, I felt uncomfortable and looked away for a brief second.

I understand you are so-called best friends forever and blah blah blah but a public display of affection is completely unnecessary.

"I'm not cute. I am hot"

"No. You are my cutie pie"

"Shut up!"

"Aww"

They both were busy among themselves so I took that as an opportunity to disappear without their knowledge.

That woman was more than a Best friend. The way she was looking at him, smiling, teasing- WHAT THE FUCK I GOT TO DO! Why does it even matter!

I walked towards the bar and asked for a vodka shot. I chucked down three shots in one go and it burned like hell.

"Rebecca Brooks; the bad girl, I thought you will wait for me"

"Archer Smith; the traitor, is back."
I roll my eyes and he chuckles.

"You ditched me" I pointed.

"Sorry. I was helpless, we got bro-code" I nearly roll my eyes. I was right. I am much better with any new friends.

"By the way what you are drinking," I asked looking at the glass in his hand.

"Wine "
I snatched it and gulped it down.

"Pretty lame"

"Whoa. Easy there"

"Shut up!"

Right now I just wanted to be left alone for an unknown reason.

"Archer?"

"Yea"
