"Take a picture. It will last longer.", He told me with a straight face and demanding voice which sent shiver through my spines. So I looked back at the hall where couple were having their romantic moment with each other.
This place was decorated for having meals with their date especially. But there were a section for group too.
' Where is Emily? Will I have to stay alone ? No no no...I don't want to be alone.' Keeping that in mind I started looking for her throughout the hall. But I couldn't see her at all. Where could she.....
I was interrupted by Ray's voice.
" If you are looking for Emily then she isn't here. They are in next hall."
" Next hall? Is there a next.....?", I turned my face towards Ray's voice to ask him about the next hall but I was taken aback by the closeness. His face was just one or two centimetres away from mine. As he was too tall i had to look up while he bent a little. I don't know how to feel about this. Maybe I was too happy that I couldn't sense anything. I couldn't feel the butterflies anymore instead I felt a throbbing sensation down there making my legs go weak . I would definitely fall if he didn't hold me in place. I don't know for how long we were like that but we got back to our senses with the loud music .
Soon he left me without warning that I almost fell , However he held me place and we were walking towards the next hall. I didn't need to be told what it was in next hall as I could already listen to it's loud dj music.
As we entered I was awestruck by the 180 degree change in this hall. They turned this hall even better than that of a 5-star club. There was a pole dance stage, the lighting , the neon light floor, couches placed at the corner last but not the least bar. It wasn't a mini bar. It was a huge bar with drinks of all kind.
" Stop looking at everything with so much surprise . It isn't even near to the decoration we did last year for our senior batch. This scams and bitches know nothing. They are just good for nothing.....task...."
" Well could you show me the pictures of you have it."
" Aren't you their in the college group or social media? How could you not see it yet? It was one of the tranding news for a month at least."
" Ohh.... but I just got my phone and no-one told me about joining any group or social media. So..."
" Task.... why are you so dum?"
" Whatever just follow me . Don't leave my side throughout the function. Now let's go to Emily and Xavier. I should have been with him now if it wasn't for you."
" I ....I am sorry."
" Agggg..... let's go now."
"....."
He moved through the crowd and stopped suddenly which made me knock my forehead on his hard back. But why did he stop in the middle of dance floor. Does he want to dance?
Well my question didn't go unanswered for too long. As I looked up to see him. A pair of hand came up to the back of his neck. I didn't need a second to realise whose hand it was. Ofcourse it was none other than Grace.
" Grace, stop it. I came here with someone else. You know I don't disrespect women . So do me and yourself a favour and step aside."
His voice was so cold and demanding that it sent chills to everyone standing here. Thankfully she let him go and we walked towards Emily, Xavier and his group sitting with their dates for the night.
Emily and Xavier sat together on the single sofa. Emily sat on the arm of the sofa where Xavier sat like the king and his queen that they are without a crown. They definitely looked like the best couple of lifetime. Having each other's arm and back.
