Aidan danced to the rhythm, his body swaying drunkenly as he broke the glass he was drinking from his bare feet pierced by the shards of glass.
He opened his hazel orbs chuckling to himself in the dark room-
the music still playing from the speaker it was a classical song called- 'Johann Strauss ||-The Blue Danube'. -
He finally slumped to the ground tears filling his eyes his shaky sobs muffeled by his hand.
"Am I the idiot for trusting them? " he spoke particularly to no one.
Thud! He got up as quick as he possibly could considering the state he was in.
There he saw someone who looked familiar but because his eyes were blurry he couldn't quite figure out the silhouette of this person but when they stepped closer calling him big brother.
He could finally see a woman with jet black long hair and emerald eyes-
Her white dress that sparkled like the stars in the sky and tan skin made her look like a beautiful fairy from some Dreamland.
He thought this angel was sent to console him? Was he a lucky man or what?
But Aidan was is no state to care or figure out the person's identity so he held out a hand.
"Dance with me Beautiful Angel. Have you come to help soothe my misery? If so then you're quite kind and - and surreal ...you look like her you know"
Hazel the girl he was holding his hand out to yelled ,
"Big brother what's wrong? Did you drink all of this ? And your feet are bleeding? What happened ? Where are the people? Where's big sis and brother? Did everyone leave?!"
Aidan placed his finger on her lips, "Beautiful fairy, Angel whatever you're supposed to be please just dance with me . There's no need to speak on such a lovely night"
The moonlight illuminated the two, his brown skin seemingly glowing as his raspy laugh reverberated in the entire room.
The music continued to play as he took her
hand and forcibly danced with her, Hazel
refused to play along with this drunk fool and made him sit down as she picked up the
telephone to dial his father
"Uncle, Big bro is drunk and injured I don't know where everyone is . What's going on? "
Then the 'uncle' explained the situation and told her to take care of Aidan as he will send someone to pick them up.
Hazel sat down not knowing what to do as Aidan rambled and vented his heart out to her.
"I'm an idiot I'm an idiot I'm an idiot" he kept on repeating.
Hazel was just too overwhelmed to even care .
She needed some time to process the situation.
She bit her nail clearly in distress as Aidan out of no where embraced her gently comforting her telling her that in this cruel world no matter what she shouldn't break down and only the selfish survive.
Hazel deadpanned ' He should really take his own advice but it's nice big bro usually isn't this open'
For the timebeing while waiting for the butler to arrive and pick them Hazel sat there listening to this drunk man's ramblings .
20 broken bottles of liquor surrounded them as she consoled this man who seemed to think of her as some angel.
'Stupid are you that drunk that you've started daydreaming '
"She left me for him. She never loved me and he betrayed me. What a perfect combo to ruin someones life right? " He spoke in a soft tone as she tended to his bleeding feet.
"I'm sorry Aidan , I was too late. "
"There's nothing to apologize for Angel at least you're here with me that's all that matters" Aidan looked at the portrait hung on the wall of the four of them.
His fiance, his best friend and his best friend's little sister.
'They were all smiling brightly. Where did everything go wrong?' He wondered.
'No it was all pretense, a game, an act and I fell for it. '
'They fooled me for 7 years. I wonder if his little sister was in on their plan. It couldn't possibly be. '
'She's all I have left as a friend. It doesn't matter I just have to move on'
Aidan passed out from exhaustion and Hazel just watched over him waiting for the car to arrive.
In the meantime she wondered why the hell he was crying?
Was she too late? She wanted to tell him of the wicked schemes of her brother and his fiance but it seems that it was too late. Or was it?
Either way she would expose those snakes
"Will he believe me? I have no proof"
'It's nothing you got this if not his life would be ruined and that would be no good. '
"I'm so tired" She yawned - being locked up and knocked out was a pain. It was definitely not as cool as the movies that's for sure.
It was such a hassle to try and solve the human mind. She could never understand why someone who has possibly everything would ever throw it all out the window for some stupid reason.
But on one side she could understand why someone would destroy themselves just to get their parent's validation and praise.
And throwing a friendship of 30 years due to jealousy was stupid. In fact, it was insane and morbid.
"Humans are such complex creatures aren't they? "
No matter what Hazel witnessed or experienced .
She could never hate anything or anyone she would hold a grudge and eventually forget about it because what use is there ruining your mood and days just hating on someone.
-'that was a lie I hate everything and everyone'
"I wonder from their perspective if they see themselves as the right ones doing all this to big bro"
Time ticked slowly even though just a few minutes had passed. It seemed that the universe was mourning with her.
Mourning what? It wasn't even her life and they weren't that close. Or were they?
"I wonder what Aidan thinks of me. Does he think of me as a close friend? "
I hope so. I truly hope so.
