From the perfect start

Chapter 9- Again

I raise my eyebrows at her. "Yeah, I am sure," I reply and follow her as she runs to the limousine, her walk not as straight as she probably wants it to be.

I look back and see that Oliver is walking after me with a little unsure smile on his lips and I relax as I see he doesn't seem too uncomfortable.

My best friend rips open the door and quickly disappears inside and I carefully place myself in the black car, Oliver moving beside me.

"Heyyy." I hear getting greeted and as I am fully seated I look up and see Harvey flashing me one of his million-dollar smiles that can make everyone go weak.

"Hey, Harvey. Didn't expect you to be here." I say, smiling back at him, my head spinning from the sudden movement my head did.

"Sounds like you have to get to know me. I am wherever a party is and when Bella told me you wanted to get saved from those pathetic frat idiots, I was ready to be your knight in shining amour." He says, with a grin on his face.

Bella?

BELLA?!

I see Emmabell rolling her eyes and I have to hold back my laugh.

As the driver starts the car and we leave this place I turn my head to the side and see Oliver looking at a blond guy our age and his face is anything but joyful. He looks angry and uncomfortable but the mix is so confusing that I can't be sure.

"You wanna come with us or go home?" I ask him, in a voice that is more like whispering than my normal tone.

"Honestly, I wanna go home." He replies.

"Where do you live?"
Harvey tells the driver Oliver's address.

"Fuck, that was very rude of me. I didn't ask for your name. I am Harvey Remington and that is Kaden Harrison and Edmund Huxley" He introduces but Kaden doesn't speak up and I don't look at him.
I know from a short glance before that he is here but I can't bring myself to look at him for whatever reason so I pretend he isn't here.

"Oliver Hill."

"Are you related to-" Harvey starts as he shakes Oliver's hand.

"No fucking way. That's why your face seemed so familiar to me." The blonde speaks up, mischief glinting in his eyes as he looks at Oliver.

"You know each other?" Emmabell asks.

"We both went to East Shores before I switched schools."

"Yeah but he hella changed since then. The last time I saw him there was so much acne on his face, you could barely see his eyes. Dude, I can't even describe it but it was fucking disgusting and the glasses he wore-made him look like a freak." He says, laughing hysterically like he is telling the funniest joke that was ever made.

The shock is plastered on all our faces and Oliver turns his gaze to the floor, his jaw clenched.

What the hell is wrong with this guy? How can he think this is funny?

"Why did you even change school? It was so much less fun without you. Dude, you made my day when you were there."

I look at Oliver in concern, my hands clamping in fists because of the rage inside me.

"Didn't like the people there." He just responds.

I can imagine who you mean with people.
The guilt comes up as I realize he is just here with him because I wanted to leave.
I should've just stayed and waited till he wanted to go.

"Yeah, some of them were fucking id-"
"Shut up, Huxley," Harvey says, raising his voice but the anger and annoyance on his face saying more than his words.
"Dude, what the fuck? I am just trying to bond with an old friend. Ok?"

Oliver lets out a huff.
Friend.
Yeah, I am sure you were friends.

"Yeah, well. Stop it. We are here to party till the sun goes up and not chat. If you want to talk to someone... get your whores. I am sure they will listen for a few grand. "

Embarrassment and anger creep up his cheek but he doesn't say anything, just clears his throat.

"Where are we going?" I ask.

"First we bring Oliver home and then we go to one of my clubs," Kaden speaks up, my body reacting to hearing his voice so unexpectedly. Still, without looking at him, I nod.

"You don't wanna go?" Emmabell asks me and my gaze turns to her.

"No, it's ok. I want you to have fun and it's great that you even picked me up so I can bear a couple of hours in a club for you."

"Fuck no. You shouldn't bear anything. We can hang out for an hour or so, eat something, and then after we bring you home, can party. It's not like the clubs here close at 2, we have the whole night and Bella needs to eat something after all those vodka shots anyway."

"I do not. I am perfectly fine. My alcohol tolerance is through the roof."

"Yeah, sure," I say. She can drink much more than I do but someone who lost their entire senses can realize that she is anything but sober when her words are so slurred that I can barely make them out.

"Well, that's settled. Let's eat something and then blow our brains out."

The blond, which name I have already forgotten lets out a groan, and all our eyes are on him.

"Man, you really can't let that happen. First, we have to pick up some random chick just as I was about to have a threesome with two hella hot gingers with double D's. Then she takes this fucking faggot with her and now you want to let her ruin the entire night by wanting to eat something even though I could be snorting coke off a 10?"

"What the fuck did you just say?" Kaden and I speak up at the same time, my voice louder than his, and our eyes meet for the first time this night.

"What the hell did I say wrong now? Are you mad because I said faggot? Well, that's what he is. Look at him."

My eyes wander from Kaden's face to his fists that are clenched tightly.
"Get out." He says in a calm voice but it's obvious how much he is holding back.

"The fuck? I can't say my opinion now? You seriously want me to leave."

"Yes and now get the fuck out."
"You can't do that."

"I can because this is my fucking car and when I want you to leave that's exactly what you do. And don't forget you go to a school my family practically owns so when I say you jump off a bridge you ask ‚Which one?' and don't hesitate."

"Now, leave my car and shut the door behind you or I am making sure you will never be able to shut a door alone ever again." He says in the calmest down I have ever heard someone curse.

The limousine has already stopped as the guy leaves it and within seconds we are moving again.
Kaden leans back against the leather seat and our eyes meet again.

"Find the best fast food restaurant, Royce. I am starving." He says as he presses a button that makes the driver hear us.

I look at him as he studies my face with an expression I don't even dare to figure out.
