Chapter 27 - CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

Ruby waited but her brother hadn't returned to the table hours after Naomi did. Are you listening Rubs? Klaus asked as she seemed to be lost in her thoughts. Yo, are you ok? Sam asked. I'll be right back? She said leaving.

**************************************Luke stood behind a railing over looking the people laughing and dancing while some where chatting while holding his beer. You ok? Ruby asked as he turned to look at her joining him. Yep. He said popping the "p". Hmm. She muttered taking a sip at her own beer. It's going to get better. He said. Will it? She asked. It has to be. He said. There are plenty of women around. I'm sure you'll find love somewhere. Ruby said looking at her brother. There's not going to be love any where for me. It has to be Naomi or no one else. I know in my heart that Naomi is going to be the only woman I'll ever love. Nothing is going to change that. He said. So what are you going to do now that she loves another? Ruby asked. Nothing. I won't come between them. I'll just love her from afar. He said looking at his sister as he smiled shaking his head. I know those look. He said. What look? She asked. That look that says you pity me. He said as she smiled lazily. Do I now? She asked. Don't do that. At least we're still friends. Being friends is better than nothing. He said drinking his beer. I'll take life slow and easy. He said. And see where the wind takes us. Ruby said completing it for him as they clinked their bottles together and cheered as they laughed. We'll get better bro, we'll get better. She said as they held each other. That's enough with the bro-sis romance. Get your ass over here. It's picture time. Klaus shouted as others cheered. Come on, let's join the others. Sulking doesn't suit you. She said. Of course. I'm way to handsome for that. He said as she rolled her eyes. Arrogant ass. She said leaving him as he laughed following her.

**************************************Oh God. I had a good day. I honestly didn't want today to end. Sarah said as Ruby groaned. I'll agree I was expecting something else. I'm really happy that things went out smoothly. Sam said. So can you guys add me back to the group chat? Naomi said giving her best puppy dog eyes. There's no need to look cute and all. I already did that the moment we began talking. Ruby said as she squealed. I love you guys so much. She said as they all went in for a girls hug. Women. Klaus muttered as Luke nodded his head. Ok, guys. I need my beauty sleep. I have to open the gallery early tomorrow. So I've got to go. Sarah said leaving with Klaus. Oh Naomi, we could drop you off. Klaus said as Sarah looked at him and then turned to see Naomi looking at her. What? Didn't you here my man? She asked as Ruby chuckled, Luke snickered, while Sam scoffed. I'm so jealous of you two. She said sarcastically. Fuck you all. She said leaving. I'll call you later. We need to have our us time like old times. Ruby whispered into her ears as Naomi smiled then nodded. She was happy that things turned out well. She was glad that she got her friends back. She couldn't wait to tell Ardi all about this day but she'll tell him when she sees him. Earth to Naomi. Sam said flicking her fingers in her face. What? Naomi asked looking lost. Are you coming or what? Klaus asked. Yeah. I'm sorry. I zoned out for a bit. She said. We noticed. Sam said. Ok, guys. This was fun but I have to rest. Luke said as they left.

**************************************Naomi came home to see the twins still awake. Here comes the princess. Marcus said as Naomi chuckled. With the way your smiling, it's like you were given your favorite candy. Mary said. I really do not why you two are still up. Don't you have school tomorrow? Naomi asked. I'm planning to skip. I do not feel like going tomorrow. Marcus said. It's not like you want to go anyway. Mary said turning to the book she was reading. I'll go, just not sleepy. Mary said as Naomi nodded. Good for you two. I'll be going to my room. So goodnight. She said going up the stairs. Night. The twins said in unison.

**************************************Naomi had done her business in the bathroom and wore her nighties. She was standing at the edge of her bed cleaning her hair when her phone lit up. It was a message. When she checked it, it was from Ardi. She smiled as she threw her towel and laid down on her bed with her legs up smiling as she went through his message.

A= are you back? How was it

N= why? Do you miss me already?😜

A= you wish

She laughed seeing this message. Typical Ardi. Always in denial mode.

N= I refuse to comment on this

A= 😹

A= I saw the pictures you sent. God, you looked gorgeous in that two piece. It complimented your eyes and brought out your curves in the right places.

Naomi couldn't help but blush. She noticed she loved it when he complimented her. It did things to her inside and made her feel things.

N= are you complimenting me, Mr. Wilson?

A= no, I'm not. I'm complimenting my fashion skills. You should seek fashion advise from me. I promise I won't charge.

N= 🙄. Not funny. I have lots of things to tell you

A= you'll get the chance to tell me later but for now I need to go.

Ardi said he's goodnight, while she kept staring at her phone
