chapter 66

“Are you serious” Chloe and Zoe asked me, I told them that Xavier and I were throwing a party.

“Of course I am serious, I have never thrown a party before so how does this work?" I asked

“Your father really trusts this dude if he will allow you throw a party with him, does he know you are screwing the guy?” they asked again, I rolled my eyes at them, how blunt they could be sometimes "We, um live with him”

“So his parents are loaded” they are, I mean they are royalty but he does not live with them or off their money, At least I think the money he earns is his hard-earned money

“He does not live with his parents” they widened their eyes, wait have they even seen Xavier properly he drives a fucking Porsche cayman to pick up from school, what parent gives their child a fifty-seven thousand dollar car. Besides the crazy ones. My father didn’t even let my barbie doll get a car.

“Winter, how old is Xavier”

“Oh, he is older” WAYYYYY OLDER.

“Like college older or old enough to be married older, is he cheating on his wife for you,” they said

“WHAT. You guys he won’t pick me up from school openly if he was cheating on a wife, he is not in college he is a worker. He is twenty-four” more like twenty-four plus three times older than me.

“He has six years on you”

“Yes” I replied "it's not that far off"

“And he is rich”

“Honest money” they looked at each other and smiled deviously

“Please don’t rape him” I begged

“We are not making any promises, so where is the party”

“At his house, its a pool party though,” I said

"Where is his house Winter” In the middle of nowhere, Fool where is your house, You are asking me where you live? Xavier asked in my mind, Yes answer me godammit, I am not going to forget you calling me a fool, baby girl we live on the mountain, OH

“We live on the mountain”

“You mean the mountain that is miles from here when do you leave for school, two o’clock in the morning?”

“At eight sometimes seven sometimes when school is about to start, we have a good routine”

“Whoa, I don’t suppose we plan this party during lunch break and after school club time”

“We can and when I get home I can finalize it with Xavier, we pass out invitations on Thursday and wam bam yes mam we have a party”

“Winter it is not so easy to plan a party, you just told us today, we need to make a guest list today and start inviting tomorrow, then run you through the list we need to check out before Saturday”

They can come over.“You can come home with me today”

“REALLY!!! Can we sleepover”

“Sure” no, I already said it, My body is melting with happiness my friends are going to finally get to see Xavier as kind and not the guy that wants to take their best friend away. “But won’t you tell your parents”

“Please all it takes is a mention of your name and they will say yes quicker than Eminem get a word out,” They said simultaneously

“Do you guys by any chance plan what you are going to say when you are talking together?” I asked, scraping the food from my tray to the bin.

“What kind of question is that?” they asked

“I mean you guys talk at the exact same time and it is kind of creepy,” I said

“You never had a problem with it when we were growing up”

“No, no, no I have always had a problem with it, I think you were overlooking it,” I said

"We will start talking differently from now on... starting now... stop it... no, you stop it”

“No, I will stop it”

“OMG, that is your cute cousin Jax” they did air-quotes around his name because I told them that Jax was extremely shy so at the theatre, he just switched places with a friend who so happened to be in the mall at the right time, of course, they believed me “does he work for him,” Chloe and Zoe asked and pointed to Jeremy from afar, Ugh why is he here "Who is going to take your car?” I ignored their question

"We can always drive it back home tomorrow and as for our clothing, your clothes should be our size”

“And your underwear?” I asked

“You still have new underwear” I gave them that look of confusion, they were going to wear my unused underwear, I know it is unused but it is kind of weird you have to admit. We got to the car.“My queen?”

“What is with guys and calling you their queen”

“It is a pet name, ignore it”

“I do not think, HE would like you to bring friends over”

“It is okay, he knows us” Jeremy ignored them and looked at me sternly, CALM DOWN,

“He knows they are coming over, even if he didn’t I also have authority over my house Jeremy” he bowed slightly in an apologetic manner and opened the door for me and my friends.

“This is so cool,” Chloe said and I smiled

“This is where I live,” I said and they gasped

"It is huge, no wonder your father has stopped going to the grocery store” OH RIGHT, that thing still exist I totally forgot about it. Jeremy pushed open the door and we three walked into the house.

“Amazing decor” WHAT, The house is fucking black and white, I am the only thing that brings color to this house, Xavier might as well be black and white since that is all he wears.“I want to live here, where are the living room furniture, like the couch and other stuff ”

“I have never seen them in my life” I walked up the stairs “Come on let me show you my bedroom” They followed me up the stairs quickly.

“Xavier” I opened the door and saw him playing with my puppies, he is jobless playing with puppies all the time.“I didn’t hear you come in” I dropped my bag

“Hey guys” he waved at Chloe and Zoe and I tried to ignore the fact that they were drooling over my half boyfriend’s body

"Earth to the twins” I snapped my finger in front of their face

“Hey Xavier, you are really hot”

“Thank you” he smiled, TRAITOR.
