Chapter 11: Truth (The Party)
I feel a warm hand, brush against my cheeks. My eyes open, seeing Ansel sound asleep with his hand on my face. I smile and move closer to him. He slowly opens his eyes, he smiles at me and moves on to his back while I move to his right side. We laid there under the covers.
"Ansel?"
"Yeah." His raspy voice makes me melt internally.
"Did we use protection?" I ask.
Ansel sits up running his hands through his hair. "We didn't have sex Alexia." I sit up immediately, shocked.
"We didn't? What happened then!"
"We kissed, we got naked and you fell asleep. Though I'm glad you did I didn't have a condom and I wouldn't have checked if I did last night." He comes in closer to me putting his head on my lap snuggling into my legs. He looks like a baby. Besides the delicious muscles he has, he looks peaceful. I feel myself sigh I am glad as well. I would love for him to be inside of me but I don't think I'm quite ready. It's been a month and we've moved so fast. I run my hand in his thick soft brown hair. His grey glimmering eyes look deep within me.
I wake up realizing I fell asleep again. I don't see Ansel but I hear him next door. I stand up putting on one of his shirts and boxers. I go to the bathroom brushing my teeth. After I'm done I walk past the living room where he is to the Kitchen. He seems to be on a phone call with someone.
"Yeah, it's informative and urgent. No.. What? No, no.. Just schedule it longer or I'm on your ass once I get back." He notices me in the kitchen pouring a glass of lemonade in a cup. He paces towards me. "No, I told her that she can go home, I don't care! She should go back home I can handle this on my own. Yes.. Yes Roger. Yes, I can negotiate, Roger." I take a long sip of my lemonade looking at him carefully.
He makes eye contact with me now. I lick the bitter sweetness of the lemons off my bottom lip. He watches gesturally. I dip my finger in it and put it up to his lips. He opens his mouth letting my finger slide against his tongue. "Yeah.. I'm still here. Can you just contact her lawyer with me, if I have to show the contract for proof then I won't hesitate, I just need that money.." His voice slows down, I notice his eye color turn into a dark grey. I walk up to him, going on my tippy toes to reach his ear.
"I'm going to take a shower." I whisper the invite to him. He immediately accepts the invitation.
"Roger, it's a bad time right now, Let's continue this later and I hope you will do the things I asked for." His phone beeps off as he follows me to his room. I strip off the boxers and shirt. And enter the bathroom already. Ansel takes his wondering eyes off me and turns on the shower. He turns it hot, not all the way hot but enough that you feel the steam from it. I watch him unbutton every button his shirt holds. He slides his dress shirt to the ground. He slowly unzips his pants and slides them down too. I try to not notice his huge erection. He then takes his Calvin Klein boxers off too.
We stand there with the steam surrounding are naked inflamed bodies. He slowly approaches me. Lingering his olive-skinned fingers to my back side. Traveling up at a leisurely pace, pulling me closer to his bare chest. His lips find it's way to my neck giving toxic small pecks. They were wet and melted my insides. I gripped his hips tightly while his lips sink deep into my skin. After he gets tired of my neck he smoothly hunches forward and moves his lips to my breast. I moan as he does this intense tease . His tongue rolls along my perky nipples. I moan loudly stopping him, gently putting my hand on his chest pushing him so he is face to face to me. He stares as I walk to the door of the shower, stepping in. I see him walk towards me through the glass door. He comes slowly and agonizing stepping through closing the door behind him. He walks underneath the shower head letting the water run on his body. He throws his head back running his hands through his hair letting his whole head become fully drenched.
So sexy...
He leers to me pressing his lips into mine as the hot wet drops splash all over us. Soaking us as we adjoined into each other's arms. The kiss was subtle and quick paced. He slammed me on the shower wall while contuining to exchange our heat from our mouths.We eventually pull apart and clean each other thoroughly in the shower. It was sensual than sexual. After we were done I was drying him off. He stared at me as I dried his hair with a towel. I go on my tippy toes and kissed his forehead softly. He grabs me under my thighs by surprise pushing me on the wall again. I laugh as he kisses my chest. Hitting him jokingly he puts me down and goes to the sink. I rub the towel in my curly big hair. I tie it up in a bun walking to the kitchen to make us some breakfast. He doesn't follow me so I assume he's still in the bathroom. I grab the eggs, cracking and scrambling them. I make two omelets and grapefruit on the side. He comes in right when I'm finished. I look at him, his hair looks even fluffy and wavy than usual. Must've blowdried it. He meets my eyes , immediately smiling with his glistening white teeth while he squints his grey eyes. I give him his plate with a fork. He raises his eyebrows.
"It's sexy when you make me food."
He slurs out with his raspy morning voice.
Lord jesus help me.
"I should do it more often then." I smile at him sitting at the table. He joins me digging in, already half done. After were finished I look at him, he's staring into his huge iphone. A question burns inside me and I decide to ask him.
"Is it a dread to you, that we haven't had actual sex yet?" I rush out. He looks up from his phone now. I can't read his buoyant expression.
"What makes you ask Alexia?" Jesus I can fuck him right now from how he says my name.
"Just something that's been on my mind." He raises one eyebrow. I look down at my plate bashfully. I feel his fingers lift my chin up. He's only inches away from my face hunching over the table.
"Why would I dread it?" He questions.
"Just thought that.. You'd really wanted to." His eyes pierce mine like an arrow.
"I do, oh fuck yes I do." I inhale slowly. "But I can most definately wait."
"I did want to wait, but I think I'm ready." His finger is still underneath my chin so grab his hand opening my mouth letting his pointer finger slide against my tongue slowly sucking on it. He keeps in direct eye contact with me until he breaks it standing up with his hands behind his head. I softly giggle as he adjust his pants.
"If you were staying with me all today we could." He knows I'm going to a party.
"But I'm going to the party."
"I know." He hunches over the table again. I gulp and let his eyes take over deep inside me. He goes around the table grabbing my hand making me stand up. "I want to ask you about something."
"What?" I smile.
He sits me down on the couch with him next to me holding my hands.
"I've been loving our relationship, a lot actually." My heart sinks and I feel a relief wash over me. "I've been loving you. I know its been just a month but I'm so comfortable with you Xia, you make me happy and I'm able to be myself with you-" He stops talking for a bit just looking at me with a soft expression. "I wanted to ask you, since your graduating this year, if you wanted to move with me to Massachuetts." My heart stops. Did he just ask me to live with him. Not only that move with him.
"You're asking me to live with you?" I felt like crying.
"Yes." He smiles. "Would you?"
"Omg, Yes, YES ABSOLUTELY!" I jump on him giving small kisses all over his face. He smiles letting my anmoying kisses press aganist his skin.
"You make me happy." He wraps his arms around as I press my ear to his chest. I want to stay here forever hut I know I can't. I stand up going to get my phone out of my purse. It's 2:41 pm. I look over to Ansel who is still laying on the couch closing his eyes.
Can I spend my life with this man?
"I have to go out and run some errands before heading to my apartment and get ready for the party." He looks at me now.
"Do you need to?" He questions already knowing the answer. I nod coming over to him. He grasps my hands in his and I feel his warmth. "I have things to do too. I'll just miss you." I bite my lip.
"It's just one day, stalker." I turn away from him.
"Too long." He yawns out.
----------
"Now, you have fun at theparty." He kisses my noise through the window. He just drove me to my house. I'm standing in front of my driveaway.
"Have fun at my mother's party? That must be a joke." I laugh.
"I never met the women so I don't know how horrid she is than of what you told me." He kisses down my neck.
"You should be so happy you never met the bitch." He keeps kissing my neck as I moan softly not wanting him to stop. "As badly as I want to invite you in I need you to stop Ansel." He kisses my neck one last time then traveling his lips to my forehead kissing me there before letting his grey beams return to my brown eyes.
"I'll see you tomorrow Alexia." He kisses my forehead again for the last time before backing up and driving down the road. I watch his car drive away until I can't see sight of it no longer. I enter inside my house taking my hair out of my bun letting it hang past my shoulders. I walk to my bedroom, basically dragging my feet toward the room plopping on my bed. I enhale the smell of lemon and roll over to my back.
Living with Ansel in Massachuetts..
The thought of it is both exhilarting and scary at the same time. Moving out of my state is what scares me. I never have and never thought of doing so. I stand up walking to the bathroom to see what I'm dealing with. I look at myself in the mirror in horror with how my hair looks. I tie it back in a bun and proceed my way to my phone.
5:00pm now...
I have 4 hours to go buy some shoes and get ready. I plop on my be again sighing. Get up Xia. I miss Ansel already.
--------
I'm in my car now driving to are town's local shoe store. Brady's Feet. After parking I walk into a crowded store. Why is it so crowded? I look around only to see a poster that says buy one get another half off. Which is pretty good for this type of store. I begin looking for some basic heels when I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around only to see my sister, Lena standing in front of me. Her blue oceanic eyes smile giving me a huge hug in her arms.
"Lena? Omg what are you doing at home." I hug her tightly, havent seen her since August.
"I heard about Mom's party and didn't want to miss it." She let's go of me with her brown bouncy curly's moving with her. She smiles with her pearly white teeth even wider. "Plus I miss you."
I grab her hugging her again. "I miss you too Leni." I love my little sister, even if she doesnt share the same blood we are still bound together forever as sisters. "How's your Dad?" I ask.
"He's fine, I was gonna take him here with me but you know how mom is. She basically hates me, if I bring who made her start hating me it would make her hate me forever." She looks down almost about to cry.
"No don't say that, you know mom wants you all to herself. Believe me I'm all she hates. She just doesn't like sharing you." I see these cute shoes near the back of the store, I walk to them with Lena by my side.
"Well, I don't like sharing you!" I stop to look at her now.
"What? Who are you sharing me with?" I question honestly not knowing.
"Your boyfriend, Theo!!" I nervously smile at her.
"Ah yeah." I keep my gaze towards the shoes. They are a nude color and the heel looks 4 inches tall.
"Is he coming?" She nearly shouts.
"No, he can't make it. Busy." Well this will be the last day he's ever called my boyfriend."
"Awww, too bad. Whatever you'll probably screw him after the party."
"You are still my baby sister and shouldn't be saying stuff like that!" I stare at her. Her cheeks turn red.
"It's not like I'm a virgin or anything.." I come closer to her.
"Excuse me?" I question her.
"N-Nothing.." She plays with her hair as I look at these heels. They are a size 6 which is perfect and they look comfortable too, which is a first. "But yeah get in line quick I was here for an hour." She holds up her bags that are probably more than just 2 shoes. Her birth father spoils her. She kisses my cheek goodbye and walks out of the store. I've met the man and he's really sweet. His wife; her birth mother died giving birth to Lena. He didnt have a lot of money after his wife died so he put her up for adoption. My parents adopted her when she was 3. I'm glad he bounced back up and found her 4 years ago. Though my mother would've wanted him to never find her. Lena's right, she does want her all to herself. But mother should know, she can't get all that she wants.
Oh please, your in line buying stupid heels for the stupid cute dress you bought for the stupid party that she's forcing you to go to. She does get what she wants.
Fuck me.
Lena was right. I didn't leave the store until an hour and a half. By the time I stop for something to eat it was already 7 and its an hour drive there. She never said come on time.
I get home taking another shower. I then dried myself and straightened my hair. I decided to curl the ends. I sprayed some hairspray and messed with it until it was a messy wave sort of look. I applied aome makeup. Concelar, powder. I filled in my eyebrows and put a light coat of mascara. I then went to my dresser. I put on a black strapless bra and a red lace thong that I know I will regret wearing. I sprayed some perfume on me. The mist of it was strong but that's what she likes. I inhaled the smell before sliding on my gold dress. It felt tighter than the last time I wore it. Hope I didn't get bigger. I went to the mirror and put on a necklace. I'm not a fan of jewelery but something small and danty fits my criticary. It has a diamond crust in the middle with a silver cirlce holding it in place. I put diamond earrings on and stared at myself. Elegant, not slutty. I look at my phone now its 8:30. I grab a black jacket along with my black clutch purse and head out the door.
While driving there all of my nervousness comes flooding inside me drowning me in my car. I hate my mother but I still crave her attention. That she will like how I look, that she wont insult me. I just hope she doesn't let me down with that. Also Theo, I'm telling him after this party and I'm glad. I'm only scared of his reaction. And Ansel, sweet loving Ansel. He wants to really be with me. He wants comittment. I sure as hell want to be with him too. I eventually pull up in front of the gate to my parents house. I've only spent one year at this house. It was my senior year when we just moved in it. So many memories. I could never remember the good ones.
There was a guard at the gate, probably here to make sure whoever my mom invited was only whoever got invited. The guard comes up to my window as I roll it down. "Your name please?" Her voice is soothing.
"Xia Montogomery." I say.
The lady looks up and down at her list confused. "Sorry there is no Xia Montgomery on this list." I sigh. Of course my mother loves to play these excuricating games with me.
"Pardon me, Alexia Montgomery." I state slowly. The lady looks at the list again.
"Oh yes, Mr & Ms. Montgomery daughter, welcome." She goes to open the gate with a button she took out of her pocket. The gate opens after she presses it. I drive in taking an available parking spot an get out of the car. The heels I have on feel like I'm wearing slippers. There is a few cars still coming in the crowd of parked cars. All of family, Cousins, Aunts, Nephews, Nieces, Uncles, and that's just one side of the family. Along with family friends.
I walk to the front of the house. The two front doors are already open. Did I say how huge this house is? It's crazy huge. It's probably bigger than most celebrity houses. Lol I'm kidding but it could be true. The doors are huge same as the house. They are made of wooden with what looks like gold patterns on them. They are also carved with such beautiful detail. She must've remodeled because I don't remember any of this. I step inside to see the huge ancient chandiler stand high above in the ceiling. Staring straight ahead is the stairs that divide into two seperate hallways. Oh how I've missed this divine house. There is a butler that is standing next to the door. He gestures for my jacket as I take it off giving it to him. Though no one is else is around. I turn to my left hearing simple dining music. I walk towards it now actually seeing huge swarms of people. She must've not want people in the main entrance. I walk in not being recognized by anyone. Glady, I stroll by some people until a bunch of people come to me. I realize that itś my family members. This big lady comes squeezing my cheeks along with this little boy who hugs my leg. I assume is my aunt and nephew.
¨You look like a grown women.¨ I smile softly. My uncle pats my back saying something I can understand by how fast heś talking. My Aunt and Uncle start talking and laughing loud. They are on my Dadś side. My motherś side of the family are snotty and rude like her. Eventually end up sneaking away while they are talking.I walk slowly through the crowd without getting noticed. Suddenly I feel my hand being grabbed.
"Xia!" Lena squeals, like she just saw me today. She pulls me close to her. I look at her up and down. She's wearing a sexy red dress, its short and flowy making her blue eyes stand out. She looked so beautiful.
"Wow." I only say.
"No wow you, you look hot." I lightly blush. Lena smiles at me making me feel comfortable with the groups of people surrounding us. "I'm gonna go get us a drink." I nod as she turns around. I sigh. The music changes to smooth jazz which makes me feel more relax. I see a waiter coming with a tray of horderves . Nodding at him, I take one and put it in my mouth. It's a crab puff. This shit taste good. I take another and stuff it in my mouth again. The waiter doesnt look at me. But I know he probably thinks I'm a pig. Whatever, it taste good and plus I'm nervous too so this kinda helps.
"Is that my beautiful girl." I heard my father's soothing from behind me. I turn around to see my 6'4 Father hunch over my 5'4 frame. I grab onto him embracing his almond skin as his arms grasps my body. "I see you devoured the crab puffs." I let go smiling at him.
Lena comes back with the drinks but before she could give me mine she goes to hug Dad. He hugs her back. She's Always in Alaska and rarely can visit. Like me, she likes to pay things with her own money than use our parents money. "My two beautiful daughters. I'm so glad you both could make it."
"We wouldn't miss it for the world Daddy." Lena says. Dad looks at me as I roll my eyes, he knows I got payed to come. I feel Lena hand me a drink, I assume it's mine.
"I didn't know what you liked so I got you champagne."
"Thanks." I take it from her. I'm not much of a drinker but I still take it. Father catches his attention from a group a guys in the corner.
"Hey girls I'm going to go talk to someone I hope you two enjoy the party." He walks up to me "Mingle." He only says before walking away.
Pfft ...talk to family and friends, pass.
"I'm gonna go to the restroom." Lena says leaving me alone again. I bite my lip looking around. People laughimg with there wine glasses in there hand, how fancy and pathetic. I walk to the kitchen to get something to eat until my hand is pulled again but this time not by Lena.
"Christ, I've been looking all over for you." I turn to see my mother. She has her hair in a tight bun. She is wearing a very lovely pink dress on. "You don't look bad." She looks at me up and down.
I smile softly. "Thanks."
"I want you to meet a few of my friends."
Here we go..
She grabs my forearm towards these group of ladies. They all are barely showing any skin and all look middle aged. My mom's friends alright.
"Caroline, Rachel, Stephanie meet my daughter." All 3 of the ladies look at me like I'm something at an auction.
"Aww isn't she cute." One of the ladies in the middle says. She reeks of perfume and 'My husband left me for someone blonde and younger" look. I smile out of politeness.
"Doesn't she, I can see her features in you Jules." They say towards my mother.
"Does she? But not fashion taste, like did she not get the memo, it's a Valentine's party. Not Glitz Glamour and Gold." She lasted only 20 seconds without insulting me. They all laugh hysterically at her remark not caring that I'm right here in front of them. I rub my arm looking at the other guest clothes around me.
Pink, Red, Both.
I suddenly feel embarrassed, uncomfortable. Not wanting to be apart of this conversation any longer. I take a sip pf the champagne in my hand. "So I hear your in your last year in college, what are you majoring in again?" The lady wearing a suede pink short dress with black tights and old fashion boot heels asks me. Apparently I don't have fashion sense.
"Literature, Journalism." I simply state.
"She wants to become a writer." My mother shakes her head in disgust. "Throwing her life away, I think she should settle down and get married already." She encourages the idea to her friends.
"Yes, and become a stay at home mom. It's the best choice when you have nothing good to do after college." The women in the middle says, the other two women nod in agreement.
"I mean she does already have a boyfriend, she should get a ring before she ruins it." My mother laughs while the 3 ladies laugh with her.
That's it.
"Pardon me but I must excuse myself from this pointless conversation." I smile at the 3 women and at my mom who looks furious by the way and I walk away fast so she can't stop me. I walk towards the balcony that connects to the living room. It's the balcony I always came out when I was 18. To get away from everything that hurt.
Nice to see that my patterns remained.
I exhale deeply. I feel numb. I take another long sip of the alcohol. Should've never came, wish I didn't. Looking over the balcony shows a nice view of the backyard. There is a huge pool and a hot tub. Behind all of that is a gate blocking all of the trees behind it. The sun is down and the night sky reflects on my wine glass. Shining stars twinkle up and I feel more relaxed than ever. I turn around against the banister . Looking out towards the people inside. I watch as they hold their glasses taking small sips, making conversation. Gosh I'm so antisocial. That's when I see it. The brown thick looking hair from across the room. I can see their back. It's not just any back, no it's an oh so famailar back. Without a thought I walk towards it, I bump into people but I don't care. The music seems to get louder the closer I get. Once I do I stand behind him.
"Ansel?" I question. The back turns around with his grey eyes that pierce mine. His expression shows confusion.
"Xia? What are you doing here?" I look up and down at him. He's in a suit with a red tie.
"I.. Um." Why am I stuttering, I told him I was going to a party. "This is-"
"Ugh don't talk to him Alexia." My mother pops up out of nowhere, and what I assume 'him' is Ansel. She comes up from behind me eyeballing Ansel like he's filth. "Can't believe you talked like that in front of my friends. My guests, now they probably think your some animal who needs a leash. You go running off and not only that but to this bastard." What?
"You know her?" Ansel questioning voice makes my mother go in silence. His face shows anger and confusion. I look at my mother.
"You know him?" My mother raises her eyebrows then furrows them.
"Do not talk to this man Alexia, just come with me." She grabs my arm in an attempt to leave him but I yank it away.
"No!" I scream at her. She questions without saying a word. Her face says it all.
"No?" She becomes impatient.
"Yes, No." I test her.
"No? I never!" She rest her hands on her hips.
"Who is he? How do you know him?" I question.
She sighs keeping eye contact with me. "Jeez Alexia, I wanted to tell you this later but I guess I have no choice with your forceful questions now do I?" I stare at her for while.
"Tell me what? You're hiding something from me? I sternly ask lastly.
The room stays silent. I walk towards her until my face is an inch away from hers.
"Tell.Me."
My mother steps away from me. She then exhales hard. "Alexia meet Ansel.." My mother keeps a sharp gaze into my eyes. Looking away she looks deeply in Ansel's eyes in pure disgust. She opens her mouth, I drop my wine glass making it shatter, as the last remains of the champagne spill on the ground from the words she says next.
"My son."
OOOHH CLIFFHANGER!!!!! Sorry lovelies but it had to be done. What did she mean by son? LOL, you have to wait to find out. But guess what??? The next chapter is Ansel's POV. I decided to keep doing it, it's present so it's his point of view after this chapter. SO EXCITED BECAUSE THE CONFLICT IS UNRAVELING!!!!!! Soon there will be a new character list for the new characters coming up. Thank you all that have been reading so far. Means a lot (: Let's get to 700 which will be when I post Chapter 12.
