Loveless Marriage (Book 1)

Chapter XXVIII

The lights danced around the dark room and loud music blasted through the speakers.

"Aurora!" Caitlyn calls as she motions us towards her. "I'm glad you guys could make it."

"We could not miss the after party now could we?" I respond.

"This is my boyfriend, Xavier," She introduces and we shake hands.

"It is nice to meet you," I reply. "This is my husband Kenneth,"

Then shake hands and greet each other.

"Oh look who finally decided to show up," Quinn states. "I was starting to think you guys ran away to Peru this time."

Kenneth rolls his eyes at his brother. "Hello Quinn," we both greet.

"You look amazing," Quinn compliments as his gaze runs over my body.

"Thanks," I answer before turning to Kenneth. "Want to dance?" I ask and he nods.

He leads us towards the dance floor and we dance to Strip That Down For Me.

"I seriously don't like the way my brother is eye rapping you right now," Kenneth comments as he glares at Quinn.

I place my hand on Kenneth's cheek making him look at me. "Forget about him," I state. "We are here to have fun."

Kenneth nods and we continue dancing to the song. He spins me and I laugh. I move my hips to the rhythm and place my hands around Kenneth's neck.

"Want to get something to drink?" Kenneth asks as the song comes to an end and I nod. He grabs my hand and leads us to the bar. "What do you want?"

"A sangria," I answer and Kenneth orders two sangrias. He hands me mine and I take a sip of the sweet liquor.

Come on lay your hands, your hands on me
We don't have to talk 'cause talk is cheap

I lead Kenneth to the dance floor and we dance to the song which was one of my favorites.

In the dark silence so loud
You only gotta lay your hands on me
You say you're better with
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
You say you're better with
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
I've been thinking about it
I've been thinking all night

"Every time I try to learn your body language," Kenneth sings causing me to giggle. "Never get it right."

You're so hard to read baby
So I turn off the light
And you just drop that dress to the floor
We can talk until sunrise
I've been thinking about it
The way that you blow my mind
I've been thinking about it, all night
Come on lay your hands, your hands on me
We don't have to talk 'cause talk is cheap
In the dark silence so loud
You only gotta lay your hands on me
You say you're better with
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
(Hands yeah yeah yeah
You say you're better with
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
Don't tell me about it
Keep on blowing my mind

"Cause your lips are made for kissing baby," I sing and Kenneth smiles. "So I put them on mine."

No conversation
I've heard every line
So leave your shit at the door
Come on lay your hands, your hands on me
We don't have to talk
'Cause talk is cheap
In the dark silence so loud
You only gotta lay your hands on me
You say you're better with
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
You say you're better with
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
(Hands yeah yeah yeah)
