Chapter 53 - Sad Beautiful Tragic

At the deck.

After Alejandro punched his brother and dragged Selena from the party, they ended up at the deck.

The wind kept on blowing a cold air, making Selena's skin to shiver. They occupied one of the benches at the deck, both lips were sealed.

There was not even one light post anywhere, just the moonlight serving at their light. Alejandro could see Selena's skin was crawling every time the wind blows. He did not have any coat, so he got up and asked her to wait.

After some time, Alejandro came back, he had a blanket and a bottle of wine in his hands.

He sat on the space next to Selena, after placing the bottle on the floor, he unfolded the blanket and put it on Selena's shoulder.

She was still quiet, and it scared him.

He didn't know that she likes Killian. He thought that everything was good when he left the cabin so after seeing Killian kissing Selena, he could not help but, to hit his own brother in front of their guest and take Selena with him.

He sighed, unsure of what to say.

"Do – you," he finds it hard to continue. He wanted to ask if she likes Killian but, he's afraid to hear her answer.

"How could you this to me?" suddenly, Selena exclaimed, her face was wrinkling with anger while her hand slapped his arm repeatedly.

Alejandro pressed his lips together, he didn't know that she does like Killian, if he only knew, he would have let her stay.

"I am sorry. I didn't know you like him," he sighed and got up, there's no reason to make her upset by staying.

But he was stopped when Selena grabbed his wrist and, glared at him.

"God! You are so stupid!" Selena let his wrist go and bent over, her face was buried on her legs, while anger rushed over her body.

After Alejandro dragged her, she realized what Killian was trying to do, he wanted her to know if Alejandro cares for her but, he shouldn't have gone too far. Getting kissed by Killian in front of those people and then Alejandro hitting Killian will surely be the main topic of the party now.

Two brothers fighting over an unknown woman at the party.

She sighed and lifted her head; Alejandro was standing in front of her. His eyes were looking at her. She could not see any emotion on his face, it was being shadowed by the moonlight.

"Why were you dancing with her?" she sniffed to fight back her tears.

"Why were you not on my side?" she continued yelling.

"Why did you tell me that you like me and, dance with another woman," she shouted at him, every word was deep and full of pain.

"If you want to play then tell me because I don't have time for this," she got up. Her eyes glistened with tears. She had thought that she would go home and, share the good news to her Auntie, but instead, she will go home crying.

"Can I explain?" Alejandro softly said, hoping for her to calm down.

"Explain? Explain what? I really thought you like. You said that but – what the hell Alejandro. This is just too much and I don't deserve this. None of this. I should have a complete and happy family, a loyal boyfriend and some true friends but, I don't have anyone," pitying herself, Selena slumped on the floor. She broke down, she was all alone, right now, she doesn't have parents that could tell her that everything is going to be alright. She couldn't even go back to her previous lifestyle since her father wanted her to marry someone. Her life was unfair, she wanted to yell that at someone but, would that help? Would it bring her parents back? No, so with her body on the floor and wet face buried in her hands, Selena let out all of her frustration.

What had she done to deserve this? She didn't kill anyone, didn't hurt anyone but, why is she getting punished?

She could feel Alejandro's presence in front of her, his warm hands were on her shoulder. When she didn't look at him, he took her hands from covering her face.

"I am sorry." He was deeply sincere.

"No, I don't need your sorry Alejandro. I just want to be with someone who can be honest and love me. I tired of being the consolation prize. I just want-" that was it, all of her words have been flushed down her throat when Alejandro sealed her lips.

She closed her eyes, wondering if her lips were like a magnet to her opposite sex or else, why would they kiss her.

Her eyes were closed when Alejandro separated their lips, though their distance was still close and she could still feel his warm air.

"I just dance with her but it will never happen again," he spoke with sincerity. One hand was gently brushing the hair on her forehead.

"It's cold here. Let's go tom my cabin," he said it with a deep voice but, Selena responded by hitting on his chest.

"Are you really that stupid? What makes you think that I would sleep with you just because I like you. Seriously what is wrong with your family," she irritably said and got up, but the ship suddenly moved, causing for her body to fall. She groaned in pain after her ankle hit the floor, her face wrinkled as she felt her foot twisting.

"You like me?" Alejandro dumbfoundedly said.

Selena glared at him; she could see the shock on his face but, she thought he already knows her feelings.

She slapped his arm once again to wake him up from the shock. Alejandro massages his arm and looked at her. He didn't see the pain in her face as he was so shocked by her words but, right now, he could see her gripping her foot while her teeth were biting her lips, preventing herself from crying.

He instantly checked on her foot but, the place was too dark for him to check it. So, he carried her without a word and rushed to his cabin.

When they arrived in front of the closed door, Alejandro opened it. He almost dropped Selena's body when he saw tiffany with nothing but her red underwear - sitting comfortably on his bed.

His face, paling with anxiety looked at Selena. The girl was looking at him with narrowed eyes.

"You just wait! After my foot gets better, I am going to kick the hell out of you," Selena's voice was full of anger but, she managed to whisper it into his ear.

When she noticed Alejandro's body turned into a statue, she hit his chest and said, "Let go back upstairs," and this time, Selena yelled those words into his ears.
