Everyone laughs, sitting on the couches in a complete square.
We all have drinks lining the table, along with some in our hands.
Marley made conversation, and even Jade attempted to talk to me, but all I could think about, was his eyes on me.
The bright blue electric hue dances across my peripheral vision and I feel heat crawl up my back settling over my body.
I avoid his eyes, and his direction entirely, choosing instead to face towards the kitchen where I pictured in my head dashing out of the room the entire evening.
I bring the glass to my lips once more but make the mistake of turning my head.
Our eyes meet causing me to flinch and my hand jerks making me spill some of my drink on my shirt. I hiss as the cold liquid splashes down my chest and I stand up, causing all pairs of eyes including his to fall on my alcohol-soaked stance.
"Excuse me a moment?" I stutter and don't wait for an answer as I dart out of the room, pass the kitchen and down the hall towards the bathroom.
I hear footfalls behind me but don't think too much about it until I am yanked around just as I reach the doorway of the bathroom.
I am jerked inside while hearing the door slam behind me and I turn around to feel rough hands on my hips, pushing me backward, hands clamping on my hip and cupping my cheek tilting my head back, his fingertips digging into my hair.
"I've wanted to do this all night." He whispers out roughly and leans forward.
Sealing our lips in a much-needed kiss.
He wasn't mine. He didn't belong to me.
I am locked in the arms of my best friend's fiance.
But, this wasn't an out-of-the-blue thing, we had met before.
On a one-night stand, and this is the story of how my best friend and I fell in love with the same guy.
This is the story of me in love with someone borrowed.
