Chapter 24 - Chapter 24- The sighting

Jennifer had known enough to know that it was the matter of the boys club and it would be better if she left it for them to deal with, but still she had a lot of questions when she entered the scenario. Why was she regarded as Adrian's weakness? She wasn't even properly sure if Darius had interpreted what he had heard correctly. "Can you help me and tell a bit more about this."

"I don't know more." Darius had hit the dead end. "Okay fine. Let's continue." Jennifer didn't push the topic as she didn't want to make Darius uncomfortable. Currently, he was the only one she talked to. She didn't want to lose him so soon. "It's it funny, how for every person I talk to now, is instilled a fear in me of losing them? Merely two people had left me. That's not a lot when you look at the statistics." She thought to herself as she finished her part of the project. "but it's a lot of you look at the value they held in your eyes, your life." Another voice in Jennifer's mind answered her.

When they both were done, Jennifer said, "Will I see you at the party tomorrow?" Darius nodded. "Maybe dressed up as a waiter." "Don't say that. I'll look forward to meeting you at the party." Jennifer's lips formed a reassuring smile. "It's the first time somebody said that to me." With that Jennifer and Darius went on their respective ways. Tomorrow, one whole week will be over after she had broken up with Winston. Yet, She had not seen Winston or Abby even once. It was like they had disappeared from the surface of the earth.

Every time Jennifer thought of Winston, her eyes swelled with tears, but she had clearly laid out for herself that she will not cry for those people who don't deserve her tears. So since the day she had fainted, Jennifer hadn't cried about her breakup with Winston. Next morning was Sunday, Jennifer was sitting in her garden, bathing in sunlight and listening to music, when Adrian's call came.

"Hello?" Jennifer said. "Hi Jennifer. This evening, there is a party at Kurt's house. Would you like to go there with me?" Adrian asked. "Okay." Jennifer answered without thinking much. "See you in the evening then." Adrian said and hung up the phone. Very well, now Adrian was also using Jennifer in his dirty rivalry game. Jennifer was so disgusted.

"Why does he act like a friend when all he does is use me in as a piece in his rivalry." Jennifer thought, but the very next second she thought of the time when Adrian was there for her, when nobody else was. "Oh my god! I'm so stupid. Why am I thinking so negatively? Maybe he just wants to go to the party with me. Stop overthinking Jennifer and get ready for the party." Jennifer scolded herself as she walked up to her room to get dressed.

Jennifer took a bath and came outside. Jennifer picked up a wine colored shoulder tight jumpsuit with black belt. She paired it with her Saint Laurent Opyum heals and a perfume, Chanel No. 5, her favorite. She did her hair and simple makeup before hearing a horn sound outside,. Adrian was here quicker than she had expected. A maid came and informed her that Adrian was waiting for her downstairs. she ran down the stairs and out of the house, towards the car and got in quickly.

"Hi beautiful." Adrian said. His eyes hadn't left Jennifer ever since she has came downstairs. "She looks so ethereal." His thoughts were only about this everlasting beauty in front of him. Jennifer buckled herself in. "Ready?" He asked before turning the engine on. Soon they were outside the massive mansion owned by Kurt's father. 'Fast nite' by Strokes was pouring from the speakers as they shouldered their way through the drunken crowd.

People were singing, dancing and making out as if they owned by place. Jennifer couldn't make sense of such behavior. How did his parents allow him to throw these wild parties every weekend. Turned out they just didn't give a damn. Neither about the parties and definitely not about their son. Adam and Emilia Smith owned the biggest law firm in the entire United States of America. They were never around, especially not on weekends. Jennifer suspected that Kurt lived on his own at least 70% of the time. Jennifer was sitting on the chair with Adrian.

Suddenly, her eyes adverted to Winston and Abby kissing in the corner of the room. Adrian looked at Jennifer with concerned eyes. Jennifer had tears falling down her eyes. Winston pulled away and smiled. He saw the other direction and saw Jennifer. "Jennifer" he breathed. He looked at the tears in her eyes. Suddenly, Adrian pulled her in for kissing. Jennifer's eyes widened and she was in pure shock. It was so sudden for her.

Adrian started moving his lips around her, so his one hand made its way on her cheek and the other one on Jennifer's waist pulling her closer. For the first time Adrian kissed her, the sensations he was giving her made her lose her senses and it took a second for her to respond to him by pulling him closer by his collar and placing another hand on his legs. Adrian took his time two devour her lips and tilted her head too deep in the kiss. Giving her a long peck, he left her lips. Both of them panting for air.

"I'm sorry if it made you uncomfortable." Adrian whispered near her earlobe. The moment Adrian pulled away, Jennifer's heart was again filled with hurt. She closed her eyes and let her tears fall down again. Adrian glared at Winston who looked at both of them. "Fuck you." He mouthed and grabbed Jennifer.
