Chapter 10: ...

Selene 's pov.

I could hear Ethan's hard breathing right behind me as I made for gym class.

If he thinks I'm going to turn down Jack's proposal because of a hard stare then he must be delusional.

"You said yes to Jack, really?, have you forgotten about last night so soon?".

His voice was loud and everyone could hear him.

"He was drunk, and he already apologized, what's the big deal?"

I opened my locker to pick my gym wear.

This is the girl's locker room for heaven's sake.

Why did he have to come here to prove a point?.

He slammed his palm into the locker, and I jumped in fright.

"The big deal is, you don't know what you're getting into, trust me, Jack is not someone you want to go on a date with, he eats girls like you for breakfast."

I made a face like I was scared.

"Ohh brother, thanks for the heads up."

My voice dripped with sarcasm.

He didn't miss it at all.

He sucked at his teeth for a second.

"I can't believe this, the first time a guy is showing just little attention and you're ready to sleep with him."

My hands went up at lightning speed and connected with his face.

Loud gasps escaped from the mouth of onlookers as Ethan flinched at the impact.

Even I was stunned that I could react with such anger.

But I wasn't going to apologise for being insulted.

"We live in the same house?, yes, but

it doesn't give you the right to insult me."

I didn't wait for him to process what happened before grabbing my gym bag and left him to meditate on it.

At the end of gym class, Becca blocked me.

I dropped my bag ready to defend myself

against any form of bullying she might have up her sleeve.

"Come to fight because of your boyfriend." I said defiantly.

Becca's face relaxed into a smile..

"On the contrary, I came to apologize for Ethan's reaction, you're a big girl and should go out with whoever you like."

I stuck a hand in my ear and removed it to be sure I heard right.

Did Becca Flynn just show support to me?, or she's just pleased that Ethan and I really have no relationship aside from being siblings.

"Erm, okay." I said slowly, my head was still wrapped in surprise.

I picked up my gym bag, I need to get home.

"I can help, if you'd like." Becca offered.

"Help with what?" This was beginning to sound like a movie.

"Your outfit, get ready for the party. Ethan and I will be there and Jack isn't just anybody in this school, you need to look the part as his date."

I was silent in thought, I never really thought about what I'll wear to the party.

"Okay, sounds cool, thank you."

"You can ride with us back home." She added.

I shook my head.

"Ethan made it clear that he wouldn't be taking me home ever and intend to stick to that."

"Nonsense."

She grabbed my gym bag, carried it outside towards Ethan's car.

She threw it again in the back seat and waited for me to get in.

Ethan came to his car, one look at me and he didn't say a word.

Becca winked at me as Ethan started the car.

I don't understand what's going on, I just gave a silent prayer for my safety.

Becca didn't waste any time at all in bringing a hoard of dresses into my room.

I tried on a couple of dresses till she finally decided on a short red strapless gown.

As she applied some lipgloss on my mouth.

I began to think, maybe she's not as evil as I make her to be, she's just insecure when it comes to Ethan.

Who wouldn't be while dating a flirtatious billionaire heir.

"Go girl." She snapped her fingers in the air smiling wildly.

"Jack's going to lose his mind when he set eyes on you."

I looked at myself in the mirror and I couldn't be more wowed.

"Let me go change, then we'll be heading over to Jack's, is that okay?"

I nod at her, smiling sweetly.

I must have found myself a friend in Becca.

Becca and I had to go to the party ourselves, as Ethan left earlier.

I knew it was a ploy so I don't attend the party. Thankfully, Becca ordered a ride.

Jack's parents were also wealthy, so he had a luxurious apartment all to himself with a pool in it.

When we arrived, Jack was the first to spot us, he hugged me tightly, with kisses on both cheeks he placed a hand gently on my ass.

I tried to act normal with it.

Ethan was drinking from a cup and kissed Becca when she approached him without saying a word to me.

We can play the game of malice all night long.

Becca took some shots and handed one to me, the other to Ethan.

"Drink up." She shouted over the music.

This was my first party, and I didn't want to ruin it, so I took it all the way I saw them do in one quick gulp.

It tasted sharp and salty which made me face cringe.

"That's it, have some more." She encouraged.

"You can't handle it Selene , that's enough." Ethan collected the glass.

"You're not the boss of me." I burped.

Becca and Jack burst into laughter as I snatched the glass and drank it all.

With every shot, I felt a rising hum in my chest.

Their faces were becoming blurry and my head was spinning, my stomach recoiled.

"Are you okay?" Jack touched my back.

"Uhh, no." I said.

I doubled over and threw up on the ground.

Jack rubbed my back gently as I heaved.

"Let's get you cleaned up baby."

"Okay." I said drowsily.

He took me to a room and laid me on the bed.

Brought a bowl with water and a towel.

'Such a nice guy.' I thought to myself.

Then he started wiping my forehead, his hand went to my chest and settled on my boobs.

"What are you doing?" I groaned weakly.

Jack's face was no longer gently, his mouth drooled like an hungry wolf

"Just want to see how perky those titties are." He slurped.
