"And I score!". Arthur celebrated dropping his game pad while I watch disinterestedly.
Geez! I wasn't even focused on the game anymore. It sickens me that all I have in mind right now is Blair Virgo.
Yeah, that Blair Virgo.
I mean, out of all the girls, why does it have to be her that'll cloud my mind now?
"Dude!". Arthur snapped his fingers in front of me staring at me confusedly.
"Yeah! Whats up?".
"Whats up? Zane, I've been trying to get your attention but you seem lost in your thoughts".
"I just, um, its nothing".
"Nothing? You sure?". He asked sitting next to me again. "Anything you wanna talk about, dude?".
Oh yeah, probably a damn lot of things.
Maybe you can help me figure out why I seem to be getting interested in Blair rather than hate her after what she did at my party.
But its the opposite now.
I can't even get the image of her almost kissing me out of my mind. Somehow, a part of me wants to feel how her lips taste.
Those pink lips that she teased me with not more than a few hours ago. I'm definitely going to kiss them.
"Zane! Man!". Arthur said loudly gaining my attention again.
I turned to him. "Uh? Yeah ?".
"Thats all you can say? Whats up with you, dude? You've been zoning out on me".
"I'm good, just a little stressed out".
"Which bitch is it this time?".
"Okay, my thoughts isn't always about girls all the time". I said defending myself. "Just to be clear here".
"Well I was guessing, you wouldn't tell me what it is".
"Like I said, I'm just stressed out".
"Well I know what will get your mind non-stressed".
"Please don't say something stupid". I muttered beneath my breath.
"There's the new club downtown. Wanna go try it out?".
Hm. Okay, that doesn't sound like a bad idea.
"A club?". I asked him. "You sure, man? I mean, you know what happened to you the last time, right ?".
"Hey! That was just one night". Arthur protested. "And it was probably a long time ago".
"It was a week ago". I reminded him.
"Okay, fine, you got me there. But I'm good now, trust me".
"I'd rather not".
"And besides, this place is a knock-out, you gotta see the girls in there. Bitches are available for you and I to screw a lot".
"You'll never change, Arthur Callister". I said with a sly smile.
"Yeah, he'll never change".
I paused on hearing my sister's voice and then turned to find out that she had been listening to our conversation all this while.
"Chic?". Arthur stood up facing her. "Were you ... ?".
"Yes, I listened to every bit. Seriously? You are going to the club to screw girls? After everything?".
Yep. I knew something is brewing between them but I don't want any of that.
"Why are you concerned, Chicago?". I ask deliberately. "Arthur is just like me, he screws girls for fun without real meaning to it, right, dude!".
Arthur didn't reply, he simply continued staring at Chicago and it seemed to me like they had some kind of secret together.
"And besides you've never had a problem with it". I continued talking. "So why now, huh? Dear sister, tell me why now?".
"I don't have a problem with it, he can go screw any girl he wants".
I smirked as Chicago glared at him one last time before walking out. Arthur slumped on the couch looking gloomy all of a sudden.
Okay, I know something is up with this two and I'm going to figure out what it is.

Blair Virgo
"Good afternoon, miss". The maids greeted as I walk in the mansion.
But as always, I ignored them. They are of no importance to me anyways.
"Where's my Dad?". I snapped at the guard closest to where I was.
"H-He actually left this morning, ma'am ".
"What?". I stopped right in my tracks turning around to face him. "To where?".
"He said he had a meeting with his cabinet advisors and some other ministers".
"Fuck that! Why didn't he inform me?".
"I don't know, ma'am". The guard replied as he lowered his head feeling intimidated by my angry look.
"What the heck?". I gripped the railings tight. "How can he leave with informing me of his whereabouts?".
Jeez! Fuck whatever meetings he has, I'm his daughter, he's supposed to be there for me whenever I need him.
I growled angrily storming up the stairs as I headed towards my room. I pushed away the servants at the doorway walking into my room and shut the door behind me.
Who knows how many days he's going to stay there? Who knows when he's coming back to me?
How can he leave me without saying a word?
I sat on the bed feeling annoyed as I threw my backpack carelessly at any direction it went to.
A ringtone vibrating my purse made me stop a while and I retrieved it opening the purse to find my phone ringing.
I checked the caller's I.D and saw it was my Dad. Oh finally! He thinks about calling me.
"Dad. How could you ?". I say once I pick up the phone call.
"Sorry, miss but this is Vanessa".
Wait. Vanessa?
"What the heck are you doing with my Dad's phone? Give it back to him now!!".
"Um, I'm afraid I can't do that. Governor Novoa is currently in a meeting right now and I'm only calling to inform you that he won't be back till the next two days".
"What?!". I shrieked.
"Sorry, miss".
"Stop fucking saying that word. Its pissing me off". I yelled into the phone before I stopped breathing in and out. "I don't care if my Dad is in a meeting, I need to speak with him".
"He won't be out until three hours later".
What?!!
"Well I'll like you to give him this message, tell him I hate him".
I disconnected the call immediately throwing the phone back on the bed as I grabbed the bedsheets with both my fists.
Gosh!! Aargh!
I'm supposed to be his little princess but he didn't bother to tell me of his outing. But what if he forgot about me ?
I sighed re-thinking that thought as I stood up heading to the mirror.
What if he got tired of me and wanted to use this meeting as his only resolve to be out for a little while?
Another call distracted me from having more depressing thoughts and I walked to my bed glancing at the phone's screen.
A smile curved onto my lips as I saw Jaxx's name on the screen. I excitedly picked up the phone and connected the call at once.
"Hey Jaxx".
"Love". His voice came up and I had to smile hearing it. "You back from school?".
"Yeah, I actually just came back".
"You sound strained out".
"Of course, I sound strained. I just got back from school but I've yelled at both maids and some of the bodyguards including my Dad's personal assistant". I told him.
"Wanna talk about it?".
"On the phone?".
"Then lets meet up, remember my buddy, Justin? He's got a club now and I think it'll be a great place for us to hangout".
