Chapter seventeen

Lavi's POV

**

This day was still far from being over. It was just 4pm after all and a lot of things can still go down. The DJ finally had his musical instrument ready to play us some song and believe me when I said this. Everyone look ready to boogie down.

The first song that blast through the speaker was 'science student' by Olamide and within a twinkle of an eye; everyone already had their hands crossing each other with their feet going in and out in a dance move. This particular dance move is called shaku shaku.

I didn't feel like dancing even though I would have loved to show my cool moves to test out my legs. It's been a while I danced since the accident.

James and loveth already found their way to the dance floor hand in hand like some couple in love.

So weird

I felt a tap on my shoulder and turning to see who it was only to have that skinny girl from earlier smiling sweetly at me.

What now?

"There you are! I was looking for you mister" she said bouncing up and down.

"Uhm why?" My brow raised

She gave me another playful tap on my chest and I couldn't help but wonder why she is so comfortable touching me?

"Loosen up will you? I didn't  come here to fight  you know? I just thought maybe I should get to know the guy that lost to me earlier"

Oh she came to brag

"Oh well, I'm Lizzy and you are?" She offered her palm for a hand shake.

I just stared at her wide eyes..

"You know?A gentle man would have taken my hand in his while he introduces himself as well" she said sadly as her hand fell back to her side.

I guess am not a gentle man

Who say I can't be though

"Forgive my manners Lizzy. My name is Lavi and it's a pleasure to meet you again"

"Lavi huh? Nice name" nodding to herself as she pace around.

"Uhm thanks?"

"So can we be friends now?"

"O-okay but Who invited you to this party?"

"I was invited by a friend who got invited as well" she answered with a wave of her hand

"So where is your friend right now?"

"Oh I have no idea" looking around

Oh speak of getting ditch by someone

"How about you though. You don't seem to be with anyone"

"That's because I got ditched by that guy dancing over there" pointing at James who was having a blast dancing his life away.

"That's sad but how about we join them"

Huh?

Was she asking me for a dance?

Now this girl is full of surprises

"Yeah you bet i want to dance but I..." I began but got cut off with a hard pull to the wrist.

"No but Lavi! Now come along let dance" she replied gingerly pulling towards the dance floor in one swift move.

Who the hell is this girl again?

We danced to a couple of music and I got to admit. Lizzy is one hell of a dancer as she kept falling into the rhythm of the music with each dance step getting better than the first. After the third song,I was already feeling tired and I knew for sure that I couldn't go any further.

Katherine was still going around with obi in circle even though her eyes was glued at lizzy and I as we danced away.

After a while I finally made it back to my seat as I gasp for air.

That was tense

Looking around, I couldn't see Katherine anywhere..maybe I should go look for her since it was getting late and gift were about to get shared.

I wonder when she is going to cut her cake thou even though I don't see one anywhere.

Getting up on my feet. I was heading for the main house. I could hear voices as I got closer which I recognized pretty well as Katherine and that toad face. I followed their voices to the kitchen and stopped at the door way...Katherine and obi seemed to be having an argument. I could hear them clearly as I got closer

This should be interesting...

A/N

Who else is finding this Lizzy girl interesting? 😃 coz I am 😉

And as for my foreign readers: olamide is a Nigerian recording artist and shaku shaku is just a name of a dance step just like I described earlier.

Anyways who can guess what those two fake lovers could be arguing about?

With love
