Chapter 43
Lucinda's POV
After scrambling inside from the rain and a quick run to the liquor store down the road we were all seated in Donavan's spacious living room.
The rain poured heavily against the roof with a few flashes of lightning here and there illuminating the sky. Me and Chase were on the love seat and on the opposite of us on an identical chair was Donavan and Lynn.
Lisa and Vic sat next to each other on the L-shaped couch and next to the was Mathias and Dee. On reclining armchairs were Dami and Lucian.
The coffee table in front of us was filled with glasses, liquor and a couple of snacks from the party at the park. Dami offered to make us drinks and raided Donavan's fridge while we kept light conversation... By that I mean they went around telling embarrassing stories of me.
"So I remember when me and Lucy decided to prank Dami for Halloween once. I wanted to scare him so bad because it seemed as though he wasn't afraid of anything...
I figured since he's so protective of her why not use her for my elaborate scheme at pranking my brother. While she pretended to be sleeping I went ahead and covered her abdomen with fake blood to make it look as though she was bleeding profusely and called Dami in a panic.
The second he got there he started doing CPR... Now the thing is I remember Lucy saying something about having stomach problems earlier that morning so the minute he put pressure on her stomach she hurled like there was no tomorrow..."
I groaned and put my face in my hands while everyone laughed. This was just a few months after I met Dami and he introduced me to his family.
I wanted Dee to like me so bad that I agree to his weirdly stupid prank. Turns out after vomiting my insides out I had actually gotten food poisoning from some bad takeout we had the previous night.
"It wasn't my fault! I told you I didn't feel good earlier that day..."
Dami emerged from the kitchen holding various cut up fruits and juices.
"Yeah well mom made me and Diego clean it up even though you hurled everywhere... Including on me..."
"That's what you both get from trying to rope me into your sibling rivalry."
A short argument broke out between them but was halted when I asked Dami for a long Island icetea then everyone gave their specific drink order causing him to grunt.
After all receiving our drink we seemed to break into individual conversations amongst each other setting a certain party tone.
"Okay babe... Would you rather have legs as long as your fingers or fingers as long as your legs?"
I made a face. He chuckled at my confused expression and kissed my nose.
"Paint me a scenario..."
"You could tiny little legs or extremely long hands..."
"Neither or those options sound pleasant... Or even worth tolerating. What would you choose?"
"Fingers as long as legs..."
I pouted and he kissed me again.
"You look cute when you do that..."
I blushed and swatted him slightly on the chest and he feigned hurt.
"But why though?"
He leaned closer to me and kissed my neck all up to my ear...
"It has certain benefits..."
I began to think about it and when it finally registered in my slow brain I gasped and he took the opportunity to kiss me plunging his tongue in my mouth.
We began to make out but were disturbed when someone cleared their throat. Chase groaned in my mouth and the noise did things to my very horny self. We looked up to see a very agitated Lynn looking down at us.
"Dear Cousin... Mind if I speak to Lucinda real quick?"
Chase rested his head in the crook of my neck and I ran my fingers through he chocolate brown locks as he groaned again.
"Yes I mind..."
"Yeah well I don't care..."
She grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me off the couch away from Chase's warm arms and dragged me to the kitchen away from prying ears.
"I've realized you and me really haven't had time to talk since the other day I found you in my boyfriends penthouse wearing his shirt..."
Oh wow... Straight to the point.
"Yeah... What about it?"
She turned to look at me with this crazed look in her eyes.
"Is there something going on between you and my boyfriend Lucy?... I mean why should I even ask... You're my friend and friends don't do that to each other right?"
Unable to reply I said the first thing that came to mind.
"Sure..."
"I mean it's obvious you only want him cause he's not available... Like he'd actually go for someone like you. You're so classless and lack a certain kind of etiquette."
Wait a damn minute... Is this bitch insulting me?
"Care to elaborate..."
She let out a condescending mocking laugh and twirled a strand of her hair.
"It's kinda obvious that hot guys only hang around you because they want to be your friend. Just look at the hottie you strolled in with who probably wants nothing to do with you. The only guy you could pull was my cousin and I made that happen... So remember your place before I put you there."
A very small microscopic part of me saw behind this little facade of hers... Using words to hide her own insecurities and I almost felt bad for her... But then there's this other part of me, the bitchy part of me who doesn't like to be challenged and despises disrespect.
Also known as my demon side who was just about to show this puny human who's boss. I let out a sadistic yet amused laugh and smirked.
"Look at you... All flustered and scared. Afraid I'm gonna take your little boyfriend and you're gonna be left out in the cold. You already see the way he looks at me... You wish he could look at you that way don't you?
And that hottie I 'strolled' in here with, I practically have him wrapped around my little finger. You should have more respect for your cousin, it's very classless to say such things about family members."
Her face had visibly paled like she hadn't expected me to answer her that way... What did she expect? For me to get on the ground and beg for her forgiveness like a flustered little bitch.
"What-I... You!"
I pouted in a mocking manner.
"Aww... Have I hurt baby Lynn's feelings and left her flustered?"
I laughed again and pushed past her in the kitchen and made my way out. I grabbed my jacket and announced that I was heading home.
"Would you like a ride home?"
"Why thank you Donavan... I would greatly appreciate a ride."
While he headed to his room to grab his keys I looked at Lynn who stood shocked at the door of the kitchen with a slight tinge of red to her face.
When Donavan emerged from his room and said that he was ready to go walked over to Chase and deep kissed him goodbye, looked Lynn up and down and smirk while following Donavan to the door.
