CH- 8

                          Luis :

The moment my eyes fell on the clock, it striked 6:30. Just half an hour left for the party. The villa was looking beautiful and everything was ready.

Michael posted a message on his I*******m account about the party.

I laughed after reading that. He indeed knew about some of the things I couldn't attain perfection in. 

I searched my wardrobe and selected some casual clothes. A grey hoddie and black pants. 

I didn't want to impress someone so I picked something casual rather than fancy. I hurried outside to check the arrangements as my conscience warned the morons wouldn't be able to do anything on their own.

I saw Michael and Jordan chatting outside around the pool. It seemed as if they were arguing. Like usual!

"So how many people you are going to invite inside?" I asked as I reached closer to the two. 

"Just 50 are fine. We don't want a mess." Jordan said pragmatically. One of the best things about him was his calculative and advanced thinking. He never takes a wrong step the reason being his conscience working safe and sound.

"Yeah! Same." I replied as my thoughts indeed matched my pal's. 

"But guys just 50??" Michael opposed as expected. He was that crowd lover guy who would do hilarious things to grab attention if needed.

"Yes! Just 50." I said with a serious face knowing how easy it was for my expression to deceive the notorious fellow.

"Yeah! I was just confirming Dad." Michael agreed with an eye roll. I laughed and others joined. 

"Hey! Go get ready." Jordan stated eyeing me up and down. They were all ready while I was still hanging in my Tshirt and pajamas.

"Yeah! Just came to check." I clarified and motioned back to leave.

"We are here! You go take shower and get dressed." Michael commanded.

"Now who's Dad?" I smirked and laughed. 

I walked back and reached upstairs. I looked outside from my room window and found many people dressed fancy.

Excitement was clear on their faces. I smiled knowing the idea indeed worked.

Finally after a long time , a good party.

                          Jess:

"Get ready fast." Kate huffed while rushing in the room. She just came from the teacher's room. She went to ask the teachers for permission due to my incessant wailings.

"Did the teachers agree?" I asked nervously already thinking negatively but Kate nodded assuring everything was under control.

"They told us to be back in 2 hours." She stated while stuffing things in her little peach coloured purse.

"What? Just an hour Kate. 2 hours are a lot!" I complained as I wasn't a fan of crowdly places but still I agreed because of my friend's innocent face. 

"Yeah! OK!  Come on! Go and change." She snarled infuriated by my continuous ignorance to get ready.

I got ready as soon as possible because I didn't want to make Kate angry. She got ready before me hence she asked me to do everything hastily. She was looking beautiful in the olive green knee length bodycon dress and stood fearlessly on the black high heels. While I tried hard to stand straight and cautiously on the 3 inches high heels and the tight midi dress which reached above my knees.

After getting ready we walked outside the beautiful hotel and waited for our taxi which was booked by Kate just hours ago. She was indeed practical.

"OMG! We are late." She said worridly, as if we were getting late for a final semester exam, getting in the taxi. 

"Yeah! Let's go back. It's already 7. The party has started." I replied making it crystal clear how much I wanted to not be a part of it. 

She passed me an angry glare while I pouted. 

"Don't say that again." She hissed. I kept quiet knowing the craziness she possessed and how much she hated when things do not happen according to her. 

Finally we arrived outside a huge villa. The villa was indeed captivating. There wasn't even a single human standing outside except me and Kate.

"Now what?" I asked Kate as I got the feeling there wasn't anything left. 

"Wait!" She pouted and rushed towards the gate.

"Excuse me! I want to talk to Michael." She told the old watchman. The watchman went inside and hurried back after afes. But this time he was accompanied by a cute boy. 

"Hey! Michael. I'm a huge fan. I follow you on I*******m, Twitter, Tumbler, F******k and where not. I'm a huge fan." Kate said elatedly blinking her eyes.

"Oh! Is that baby. Then why are you standing outside. Come in." I was amazed. How she does it?

Michael agreed to let us in? How?

I closed my mouth which was held open due to the shock I just went through moments ago. Either the guy was too generous or Kate possessed some magical powers. That's so stupid of me! 

We followed him as he lead us inside. 

"So what's your name?" He asked Kate who walked next to Michele with a dreamy expression on her face. 

"Kate Lerman." She replied polietly which was an indication that she indeed liked him. 

"And yours?" He asked me.

"Jessica Anderson." I replied walking close enough to not look rude by forming my own party.

"So, you both live here in Paris?" He asked.

"No! We are from New York. " Kate replied indulged in gazing the guy she has been crushing on since high school. Everyday she made me and Bobby look at the images uploaded by Michele on social media. And I and Bobby had to reluctantly see and compliment. 

"Wow! We too. I mean me and my friends." Michael laughed sounding just like Bobby. I mean she too explains a lot as if knowing their conversation skills weren't good enough to be easily understood by others.

"I know them. You , Luis Adison and Jordan Pery." Kate said enthusiastically.

"Wow! You know a lot." He winked at Kate and she blushed.

Michael called a waiter and offered us drinks. I took juice knowing how much my body resisted alcohol. 

"Ok! I will be back soon. Enjoy the party." He walked away again winking at Kate.

"I should start calling you 'highness'. How did you do that?" I asked Kate still amazed by us getting inside even though not coming sooner. 

"That's kate's trick baby! But I like Michael a lot. And he is a good boy." Kate said smiling like a baby. I nodded as usual.

Many people were there all dressed so amazing and stylish.

I took a sip of the juice while trying hard not to overthink. I was just going to take another sip when someone pushed me hard on my shoulder. It was a boy or a man. Don't know.

The push was so hard that I fell on the ground with that boy on top of me.

"Ahhhhhh! " I shouted slowly so as to not grab attention. Noone noticed till now. Except Kate. But I noticed something. The boy's hand on my breast, squeezing hard. He sensed my problem and removed his hand instantly. 

"Wait!!" He lifted himself up and then helped me get up.

"Are you alright?" He asked politely, still holding my hand.

"Yeah! Thanks! But look before you walk." I said while pulling my hand. He let go of it and stared apologetically at me.

"I'm sorry! I was in a hurry." He said moving his hand in his hair feeling embrasssed if not guilty.

"It's alright. " I said fixing my clothes.

"I have to go. Talk to you later." He said and went away. I turned around proceeded towards Kate.

"By the way what's your name ?" He asked. I turned back and pouted. 

"Jessica Anderson." I replied as there was no harm in telling my name.

"Nice to meet you Jessica." He said and stormed away. 

Kate was looking at me with mouth wide open. I rolled my eyes.

"What?" I asked puzzled as she still didn't close her mouth. 

"He was Jordan Pery!"  Kate said dazzled.

"He's so handsome. " Kate continued fangirling dangerously. 

"Hey! I will be back. I wanna got and clean my dress." I excused and went inside searching for a person who knew the locations of the house. I saw Michael standing at a corner with a group of girls and boys so I went to him. 

"Hey! Sorry to disturb but can you tell me where is the bathroom?" I asked politely. 

"Come with me. I will show you." It wasn't Michael.  I turned around and saw that same face again. Jordan.

He smiled and asked me to follow. I followed him quietly.

"I'm really sorry for what happened before. " He said embarrassed.

"It's alright!" I said shortly. 

"Thanks !" He said while leading me.

"This is it." He pointed towards a door and left with another sorry. I went inside and started fixing my clothes. I thanked God as there's wasn't a lot to do. 

I was just going to get out of the bathroom when somebody knocked. I fixed my hair and clothes and opened the door. I stared wide eyed at the  shirtless handsome and tall guy standing in front of me. Something felt different at that moment.
