Chapter 42 - Surprise attack

William slowly turned around, noticing her bare skin under the bikini. Who would have thought Wish would end up in a bikini in front of those people? He felt like it was his fault for not being by her side. " Lets go inside." he pulled her again towards Michael's beach house.

Nobody was there yet as the main party was still going on. Wish plopped on the couch, with a disappointed look. At that moment, he carefully placed his shirt over her body. " Its getting cold." he said, " Were you with that jerk, Caleb?"

She nodded lightly. " Wait...." William raised his hands, realising something, " Did he tell you to drink? Also where is your dress?" he was again jumping into conclusion.

" Nooo, we dived from the cliff and my dress soaked so i took it off..." Wish rolled her eyes,still lightheaded due to the alcohol.

" Di-dived??" this made William shocked to the core. How the hell did Wish end up diving together with that guy? And all this time, he thought she was having a bad time but it was actually the opposite? " Wow...." he pushed his hair back, annoyance building up.

Wish continued putting on his shirt properly while struggling. He noticed and helped her button the shirt. " You know it wasnt my intention to leave you, right? That Julie kept pestering me to come even though i didnt want to. On top of that she fell down and got injured. Ahhh....i am seriously annoyed."

All this time, Wish was just silently listening. Her body was swaying a little. " Hey Wish..." William looked up after finishing buttoning up the shirt. " You trust me, dont you?"

She sighed loudly, looking back at him, "...i just want to dance."

He blinked multiple times, realising she wasnt even paying attention to him.

Back at the dance floor, Caleb stormed away from the crowd and headed to the bar. The people had selected another person and they were back to dancing, forgetting about what happened just before that.

He finished the glass of whiskey in one go and slammed it hard on the bar. " Sir.....are you okay?" one of the bartenders asked startled. Caleb didnt reply anything, still thinking about the way William dragged her away. That jerk really couldnt stand seeing Wish enjoy even for a day.

Julie came beside him, out of nowhere and did a sign: 'Are you still drinking?'. He had no clue where she had gone the whole day. 'Lets go back.' she signalled, pulling Caleb from the bar.

When they reached the house, he turned the other way seeing the two. " What a pleasant surprise...."he added sarcastically.

Julie also noticed the shirt Wish was wearing. It belonged to William. How dare she!

" What the hell you staring at huh??" William glared angrily at Caleb. He hated how Wish spent the whole day with this jerk out of everybody. Why did it have to be him? Also diving together? " Is it not enough that you spent the rest of the day with her?"

Caleb scoffed, smirking lightly, " So what if i stare at her?"

" Huh?" this was making him furious by the second. Caleb provoking always made William mad. Especially when it came to Wish.

" You dont even give two shits about your fiancee and now you regret seeing her with me?" Caleb said louder. This had to be made clear. " Are you jealous of Wish spending her time with me instead of you?"

This was the final straw for William. Without thinking for a second, he stormed at him with a fist and punched right at Caleb's face. This time Caleb didnt stand back doing nothing but attacked with another punch.

Julie stood there in horror. The two was going to get highly injured in this state. Both of them looked at each other with rage. They continued punching with no sign of stopping.

Wish was also half aware now because of the situation. She tried to stand up, stumbling. " Stop itt, you two!!"

They continued grabbing each others shirts, glaring. William's pride was hurt as his fiancee was out with that guy he hated and him not being able to do anything made him even angrier. " I will finish you today!!"

Meanwhile the girls tried pulling them apart with the best they could. At the same time, some of the guys came along with Michael. " Heyy!! what you guys doing there??" they shouted with panic.

Finally, the two stopped, panting hard not leaving their eyes off of each other. Those guys came forward and raised their hands so William and Caleb wouldnt charge at each other again.

Julie pulled Caleb's shirt and signalled to leave. He looked one last time at William and back to Wish. At the end, she was by the side of William after all. He stormed away with Julie to the other side of the house.

"William...." Michael called worried, " Are you guys still going at it? i thought you two were good-"

" Lets go." he suddenly pulled Wish with him upstairs without letting Michael finish his sentence. He stopped at a room and made Wish sit on the bed. " go to sleep now."

" Why would you do that....." she mumbled, talking about the commotion that took place.

" Forget about it, okay? you are drunk..."

" You still left me alone....." Wish's voice came off as a mumble but it was still audible to him, " Caleb just wanted to keep me company. You shouldnt be upset...."

William was getting tired of explaining the same thing. He was hurt too. Why couldnt she understand? He held her arms tightly and stood only inches apart from her face. " I never wanted to leave you alone. I feel terrible too. But Julie....she didnt want to let me go. I just.....am extremely sorry. Wish..." he slowly let go of her hands, with a grim face. He was tired of everything.

But Wish stopped, grabbing his wrist which made him surprised. She stood up stumbling and used his body as support. All of a sudden, she neared his face and his breath stopped. He had no idea what was happening. Then she lightly pecked his lips, widening his eyes. At that moment, he wanted to grab her waist and kiss deeper but it was wrong. The shirt he gave her was partly off her shoulder, showing her collarbones and the bra. What was going on?

In seconds, she parted their lips and collapsed on the bed without a word. Yeah, right....Wish was drunk after all. He froze there, stunned for sometime still contemplating the situation. There must be a reason right...or was it just a random act?

He shook his thoughts and placed her properly on the bed, pulling the blanket over her. Would she remember this tomorrow? If she didnt, how should he react infront of her?

William laid down on the couch, eyes wide open. It really shocked him to the point he couldnt remember anything other than the kiss. He slowly touched his own lips, feeling a kind of joy. Even though today was a shitty day, it still ended up in a good turn.

" This is driving me crazy."
