Chereads / The Brightest One In My Life! / Chapter 9 - Better Not!

Chapter 9 - Better Not!

Matthew had the VIP floor into a circle. In total there were six rooms and each had prefect privacy. His made the rooms specifically with tinted glass so that you could see out the room but nothing in the room. It was quite handy. But for others it was the worst.

Eli felt like this was the most dreadful day yet!! He wanted to secretly pull out his phone and text Katelyn to escape before it's two late.

But just as he was to send it, his phone was taken and he found that it was Nathan who took it.

"Don't even think about it." Nathan gave him a threatening smile and he gulped. He past the phone back to him and he slipped it into his pocket with out touching it again.

'Sorry sister I tried...' Eli already saw the happy glint in his brother's eyes and couldn't bare to do it anymore.

"Matthew you knew right?" Aaron asked the calm man who was smiling at them.

"Duh! Of course I knew-" he gulped seeing Nathan and Aaron glare at him.

'I still want to live!! Don't kill me yet!!'

"It's Carmel Quest birthday today. So she booked a private room for a few friends and herself. But I didn't know that her acquaintances were... them..." he explained quickly.

Nathan honestly wanted to storm out and pull Katelyn into his embrace and give her a koala bear hug. He really missed her for the past days and he was quite lonely.

She didn't even read his messages!! He couldn't help but feel a bit sad remembering it all.

Everyone in the room looked at the wilted Nathan and then turned to the smiling Aaron who was planning something devious.

Two different moods in one room. Daniel was almost tempted to pull out his phone and record it on Snapch*t. But then remembered how fearsome they were he pushed that idea far out of his mind.

Ignoring the two men the rest of the group started another conversation about something more interesting.

"Just a question. Why do you even have a voice recorder in the private room? That a complete violation of the rules you idiot!!" Adan yelled at Matthew, his face held a bit of disgust.

"Just in case!!! It a safety precaution!! You don't what might happen in the room! Sometime murders, drugs and stuff like that happen in these types of places!! And I don't like getting mixed up." Matthew explained.

His business wasn't the cleanest as he had own a bunch of bar and entertainment places across America. He also knows of the shady things that could happen in them. Just least month a problem happened in one of his other bars and it made him furious after the incident, he made himself mentally remember to leave some precaution for things like this.

"Your an idiot!!" Adan continued.

Matthew shrugged his shoulders before speaking, "But isn't it interesting? I mean if you want we can always eavesdropped on them-"

"No thanks" Adan said drinking his wine

"I'm good" Tristan pushed his mind away from the thought of it.

"Bro that sounds perverted." Michael gave his brother a werid look.

"You better not" Eli said and glance at the two men who were silently glaring at Matthew.

Matthew it would be best if you shut up. Your making the situation worse!!!

"Your almost at Daniel's level" Jacob teased striking a nerve with Daniel.

"Alright who said that?! Come fight me!!" Daniel hissed hearing the comment.

The group broke out into laughter and continued there drinking.

In the room beside than the ladies all gather around the table and started having their fun as well.

"Carmel, I didn't expect you to choose this place of all the places." Racheal said.

"Honestly I just want to let lose after a long time. I been working non stop at different places. Going back and forth collecting evidence is hard and being a lawyer is no easy thing especially under Crown Lawyers. So I choose this place since it's drinks give the prefect kick!!" Carmel grab the tablet that was left in the room and started ordering on it.

Quite luxurious but easy. The tablet had a set selection of drinks and food provided by the club and all they need to do was order here and pay here.

It was simply great!!

"Ahh!! I want to drink too but then I remember that my tolerance is like small dot on a piece of paper!!" Serena complained making them laugh. She could probably survive four cups sober enough but after that she would become crazy.

"You definitely have the worse tolerance Serena! Just remembering what happened the last time made my stomach hurt from laughter!!" Lavi teased her.

"Shut it! Just because your good at drinking doesn't mean anything hmph!" Serena pouted like a child.

"Come order what you want guys! We still have a long night ahead of us!!" Carmel called to them and soon they order everything and now we're waiting for the drinks to come up.

They started small chats here and there until a frustrated sigh came from Julia. Katelyn who was sitting beside her looked at her.

"Julia? What's up? Why do you look so mad all of a sudden?" Katelyn asked.

Soon the group quite down and looked at her as well.

"Guys.. what would you do if your long time crush is suddenly your engagement partner?" Julia sighed.

A few gasps were heard. And so I smiled came on there faces. "Your saying that your 2 year crush ended up as your engagement partner?!!" Racheal squealed.

"He did. But I- I..." Julia felt scared to share it.

"Julia. If you don't want to share it don't worry. We won't pry into it. But just remember that if you need anything we're here." Katelyn patted her shoulder with a gentle smile.

"Katelyn I think I'm going to fall in love with you!" Lavi said lightening up the atmosphere.

"Chill girl!! She already has someone in her heart! Speaking of it... didn't you go on a date with your first love recently?" Serena grinned like a mischievous cat.

'I knew I shouldn't have told her..' Katelyn side glared at her best friend.

"Ohhh?!! This is new!!" Carmel also grinned.

"No way so your saying you went on a date with Nathan?!!" Racheal said in disbelief.

"Ya... but there was something wrong with the whole date.. how should I explain it.." Katelyn decides to share the story with the rest of them. Soon enough everyone's face had a weird emotion.

"Are you talking about that Nathan? The one from the magazine and also the one I interviewed a few months ago?" Julia felt her mouth almost drop by this surprising news.

"Weird right? But he wasn't an imposter, I even confirmed it." Katelyn let out a conflicting sigh.

"Pff!! Do you know what we need?" Carmel said.

Everyone looked curiously at her before she gave them her killer smile.

"A night where we drink till we drop!!" She announced.

They agreed with her, it was her birthday and talking about these things can kill the mood. Katelyn grabbed her cup and drank it down. She heard a few whistles and she grinned at them, "Ladies, let have fun tonight!"

"Wow!! Look at that! The silent queen has taken her cup and it would be a shame if we didn't t join her!!" Serena took her cup and drank it down as well!!

The girl laughed and had fun for the next two hours. Currently in the room everyone was drunken mess. Julia, Rachel and Carmel were already wasted on the couch. While Katelyn, Serena and Lavi who drank the least sat down and continued their chatting.

Things soon started getting serious now.
