CHAPTER FIVE

Eliot's POV

The party was in full swing when we got there.

"Dude and you wanted to miss this?" Bryce gloats with a smart grin on his face.

"What's up?" Jumari, one of the university's main footballer and close friend came to greet us.

"Jumari, dude, you did it again " Bryce stated while he greeted Jumari.

"Yeah, this party is amazing," I said agreeing with Bryce while greeting Jumari.

"Yeah I know, but thanks for the support, make sure I catch up with you guys later, I want you to meet my girl but on a 'head's up' note, and you go in blindly, be aware of her cousin"

"Why you say that though?" I asked knowing that both Bryce and I are confused.

"Try not to fall for her, she's a beautiful monster" he said shaking his head.

Still confused, but I nodded in agreement. Either way I knew I wouldn't be fully into this girl nor any girl for that matter. I only have eyes for one at this moment. Anybody else would come as an easy f*** to me.

"Well you know where the drinks are but make sure you know where your condoms are" Jumari joked causing us three to laugh hysterically.

Amelia's POV

"There's a lot of people here Tish" I said feeling my nerves taking over my body.

"Okay Amelia breathe, you look gorgeous, just have fun, I promise you that I will not leave your side" Tisha said in a very reassuring tone.

"Wasn't I just consoling you a minute ago" I joked.

As we walked through the crowd, heads all over turned to our direction. Guys drooling while girls throw daggers at us with their eyes. I couldn't care less, I could handle a jealous bitch, and at that point I was feeling a lot better about myself.

I felt someone grip my hand really tight. When I looked down I realized that it was Tisha.

"What's wrong" I whispered, something was really up with my cousin.

"I feel like I'm about to throw up" she said, now I could feel her hands sweating.

"Okay, let's find your boyfriend before you pass out"

You think that a girl this full of herself would get this nervous. A small grin make its way to my face, but I hid it.

"Babe?" I heard someone shout out.

"Jumari!" Tisha said full of excitement visible on her face.

And at that point she let go of my hands and run straight into Jumari's arms. Then that turned into a full blown public display of affection, mostly on her part.

"Damn, Tisha's really determined to mark her territory huh," I thought to myself. I mean they have been together for three years now, since high school.

"Sup Melia" Jumari greeted me with that stupid nickname. I rolled my eyes and gave him a small hug.

"Hey, no hook ups tonight please " I said, looking at him and Tisha with a knowing look. These two are always up to something most of the time concerning me and one of Jumari's friends.

"Nah, I gave up on you. You sent my guys back home sobbing too many times" he said with a half pout, "anyways I got some people that I want you guys to meet, especially you" he continued, looking at Tisha with love visible in his eyes.

"Yuck" I said with an 'f*** love' look on my face, "you guys go ahead, I'm nobody's third wheel".

"Iite Melia, suit yourself" Jumari said, pulling Tisha away.

"Have fun", she shouted back at me.

As soon as they were out of site, I decided to roam the crowd and maybe find a lonely corner to reside until Tisha's ready to leave.

Eliot's POV

The place is crazy and everyone seems to be having a blast but in the back of my mind I'm still keeping a look out for this girl who doesn't want to leave my mind.

Even before Bridget and I broke up girls always treated me like royalty, flashing their body for me to see and offer me sex, perks of being a billionaire's son, I smirked. I don't complain but...it's annoying at times.

Suddenly I felt someone wrap their arms around my chest.

"I miss you" she whispered in my ear. Trying to me a gentleman, I gently removed her arms and walked away, avoiding her gaze.

"Eliot, Eliot!" I could hear Bridget shouting above the loud music. I tried to get away from that crazy bitch but then a familiar face caught my attention and made me pause.

"Eliot please, give me one more chance, I'm sorry" damn this bitch caught up to me.

"BRIDGET LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE" I shouted, causing an audience, but all I did at that time was stare in her eyes, anger visible.

And with that she ran off, tears pouring from her eyes.

"Finally" I hissed. Two months ago I would of still care about her, but once a cheater, always a cheater. She had my heart and instead of treasuring it she stomped on it and I hated her for that.

My eyes shot open in realization of the reason I stopped. 'Shit' I thought, turning back to find her. There she was, sitting on a bench alone, looking sexy as hell, legs crossed and visible. Damn those legs, I have to go over there and keep her company.

As soon as I was about to make my move I was stopped again, uuugghhh.

"Aye man, you okay? Look I wanna introduce to you my lady Tisha, baby this is Eliot."

"You" his girlfriend shouted at me.

"You" I said looking at her in confusion.

"Don't you me, I'm you-ing you, I know you" this chick is crazy, I thought.

"Am I missing something here" Jumari asked looking from me to her.

"Dude I'm as confused as you are" I said in defense.

"Oh come on, you were the guy who was staring at Amelia this morning at the administration office, you were practically drooling ".

"This is the guy you were talking about" Jumari asked in disbelief.

"Yes Mari, dude you made me look like an ass in front of my cousin, why did you disappear?" She asked, looking at me up and down.

"Dude is she always like this, real wifey material, "I said sarcastically.

"Oh cut the crap, I never forget a cute face"

"Babe!" Jumari protested,

"Not now Mari, you like her don't you? Tisha asked, awaiting my response.

"Your girl scares me" I confessed, "Tisha, right? It was a pleasure meeting you, it really was but honestly I don't even know who you're talking about ".

"Hey guys"

And there she was standing in front of me. Right now I feel star struck.

"Amelia"

Amelia, that's her name...

"This is the guy who was staring at you this morning" Tisha continued.

"Uuugghhh, Tisha, not this nonsense again " she spoke, her voice singing sweetly in my head. What the hell is wrong with you, I heard the voice in my head said.

"Look" this time she was talking to me, "I'm terribly sorry about my cousin and her boyfriend, I don't know how they got you caught up in their lies"

"They, what did..."

"Yes they" she said snapping her pretty little head at Jumari.

"Tisha I need to talk to you, ALONE " and she walked off before a word could escape from my mouth.

"So you've met Beautiful Monster" Jumari said sarcastically, looking at me while rubbing the back of his neck.

"Man, beautiful doesn't give that girl justice" I said with a smile I didn't even know was there.

"Wow wow wow wow, time out, Tisha was right?" Jumari asked and I just realized what I blurted out.

"Ah man, she was right, you like Melia, dude" Jumari said while laughing.

"Dude" I said with a half serious look.

"I think she's a lesbian"

"No she's not..." Is she? At least I hope she isn't.

"I'm telling you, she turned down all the guys I tried hooking her up with"

"Well, maybe they're not her type" I protested, not wanting to believe his lesbian theory,

I want her, you gotta help me, and I wanted to confess...

"Hey babe, can I stay with you tonight, Amelia might kill me, all because of your friend" Tisha cut into our conversation,

"Where is she" I asked all of a sudden.

"She's gone"...
