💃Chapter 21💃
~Kelly~
My heart flipped in my ribcage, as my hands turned clammy with sweat.
I’m a very terrible dancer, I’m sure I’d step on his toes and embarrass myself.
“I..I…can’t…”
He chuckled and pulled me into the dance floor.
Other dancers swept pass us in perfect bliss.
“Put your hands around my neck.” He stated calmly.
With shaky hands, I obeyed.
“Good.” He put his own hands around my wa-ist, and we began to move slowly, to and fro to the beat of the music. I looked into his face, there was a light smirk plastered there, I looked away, down to his shoulders.
“You’re doing well.” He commended.
Whatever…
“So…” He began again. I tried hærd not to roll my eyes. Can’t you just keep quiet? But still it felt very nice, hearing his deep voice.
“They are obviously matchmaking us, how do you see that?” He said, with that annoying smirk of his.
“Pathetic.”
“Pathetic?” His shaggy brows rose an inch.
“Lame?” I ventured again.
“Lame?”
“I don’t know.”
I stepped on his toe.
“Sorry…” I winced.
He smiled.
My pulse accelerated, such a cute smile,..
“What do you like doing in your spare time?’
I frowned, odd question.
“I login to my Instagram account, or maybe I play cool music.” I said.
“You’re boring…” He said.
I rolled my eyes.
“I don’t care. I like my privacy.” I retorted.
“So, tell me about your dating life.”
OK, now that’s weird…what does he want to know?
I deliberately stepped on his toe again.
“Ouch.”
“What?”
“You stepped on me.” He frowned.
“But you didn’t ‘ouch’ in the first time…” I rolled my eyes.
“Because that one was unintentional. I know you did the second one on purpose.”
“Whatever.” I rolled my eyes. We both looked at each other and laughed.
Just then, red vixen and dray god danced past us. Her eyes were shooting out fire, I don’t give a damn
“Back to my question, you can’t escape it.” I turned my face from April, to look at him.
“What question?” I asked innocently.
“About you dating? How many people have you dated?” He looked into my face the wh0le time.
I felt blood rush to my cheeks, the question alone was very embarrassing since I have never dated anyone.
“Ummm..I can’t exactly count the er…exact number…” I said, avoiding his eyes.
“Are they up to five?” He queried. I coughed modestly.
“Shouldn’t that be…er…private?”
He looked at me for a long time, then shrugged his shoulders.
“Suit yourself.”
“Thank you.”
Phew!! Narrow escape.
“So, you have a crush on me?” He asked again, his eyes glittering with mischief.
“No.”
Liar!
“Liar.” He said, with a frown.
“That’s your business.” I said nonchalantly.
“You’re blushing!” He said laughing. I rolled my eyes.
“That’s your business as well.” I retorted again.
“You are a queer person. You know that.” He said thoughtfully.
I blushed and looked away.
“I don’t know.. I guess I am…”
“You’re cute too.”
I blushed again.
I’m cute, since when?
Danny thinks I’m cute…💃💃 danny thinks I’m cute💃💃
But still…
I cleared my throat.
“I bet that’s what you told April a few minutes ago.” I said gruffly, trying to look unimpressed.
He laughed.
“You’re jealous?”
“What? Me? Jealous?…pttt…” I said rolling my eyes. He laughed again. From above his shoulders, my eyes met with that of April’s. I gave her a little, wicked smile.
“Why are you smiling?” His eyes fell to my l-ips. I bit my l-ips, quite shyly
“To spite my enemies. You know that thing they say about smile… It’s the second best thing you can do with your l-ips…” I said. His eyes narrowed a bit, then he turned his face away.
“I didn’t know that.”
The song ended. We walked back to where we were standing. He poured himself a glass of wine, while I watched, wishing I could drink.
No doubt, our short conversation had warmed me up to him, maybe he has a soft side after all.
April hastened up to us, her eyes glistening maliciously.
“What did I miss?” She asked with a smile,that didn’t reach her eyes.
“Nothing special.” I murmured. My eyes met with Danny’s, I looked into his eyes for about five seconds before looking away.
“Danny, you didn’t dance with me, come on, let’s go dance.” She purred sed-ctively. I looked down at my nails, trying not to scoff out loudly.
“Uhmm..OK,..er..Kelly you’ll be fine on your own..right?” He asked with concern. I gave a fake laugh, waving my hands in the air.
“Of course, go on… Have fun…I’ll be fine. ” I glared at April.
“Of course she’ll be fine, she can take care of herself.” She said coldly and dragged him with her.
“Devil.” I hissed out aloud. I watched them as they danced, A bitter feeling rising up my chest.
She had her body pressed to him, like as though she was afraid that he’ll be snatched away from her.
I watched for a few minutes, quite disgusted and turned away. My gaze fell on the glass of wine that danny had drunk halfway. I picked it up and sipped. The drink burnt my throat, giving me this rejuvenated feeling. I picked up the bottle and glanced at the alcohol content.
“45% alcohol.” I murmured to myself. ” it can’t cause any harm right?” I poured myself another drink. I downed it, liking the hotness of the drink, as it passed through my throat.
Another glass… Wow, I’m not drunk yet… Well done Kelly.
Another glass… Wow… Who’s the president of America? Isn’t it Barack Obama?
No idiot, Barack Obama is dead?!
Geez, you killed him?
Gosh! Kelly is a killer😓
One more glass please…
My hands shakily poured out another glass.
I drank it halfway and smacked my l-ips loudly. I began to laugh.
He who laugh last, laugh best. No one is laughing, I’m the only one laughing, so I’m laughing last, so that means I’m laughing the best kind of laugh…
Does that even make sense at all?
I stumbled through the crowds, I need to sleep, my eyes are heavy, I sighted a flight of stair.
Eeek!
I need to pee, where is the bathroom?
I stumbled forward, my legs shaky,
“Bathroom! Where are you? I need you to come out now! Or else I’ll pee on myself, and you won’t like that!”
I leaned heavily on the railing of the stairs.
Where’s Amber?
I’ve not seen her since last week?
Did she travel without telling me?
I bent down, and leaned my head on the rail.
“Honey?” I heard a woman’s voice call. I opened my eyes to look into her face. Who the heck is this?
“Are you.. Taaalking to meeee?” I asked, trying to stand on my feet.
“Yes you…you’re such a mess, come I’ll find you a room…” Her voice sounded like as though it was coming from a pipe, it reverberated through my head, echoing and reechoing., whirling my senses.
“A room?” I repeated stupidly.
“Yes, a room.” She smiled at me, I didn’t like her smile one bit, it looked fake,
“Come this way…” She put her hands on my back as she led me up the stairs. The feel of her hands, I hated it, it made my skin crawl…I didn’t like this one bit…
She led me into a room,
“Lie down honey, go on, lie down…” She cooed, her voice suddenly closer. I eyed the bed, it winked sed-ctively at me, I finally gave in and slumped down on the bed.
“It’ll soon be over honey, it’ll soon be over…”
That was the last thing I heard before I drifted off into a long, tiring sleep…

💋Chapter 22💋
~Kelly~
I woke up, sunlight streamed from a curtain, my phone was ringing loudly.
Arrghh!
My head!
I opened my eyes and squinted, trying to adjust my eyes to the light. I sat up in bed..
Wait a sec…bed? Which bed?
I looked around the room?
Where the heck am I?
How did I get here?
I looked down😱😱
Jesus! Where are my clothes!!!
How did I take them off?!
My heart started beating fast in panic… I clutched the bedspread tightly to my body.
Have I been raped?
But I don’t feel anything strange between my legs, and my p-nts were still intact.
Who was that woman? The one that helped to find me a room?
Oh gawd!!
My phone was ringing incessantly, I reached out and picked it up.
Kori?
“Hello?”
“Kelly? Where are you?” Her voice sounded strained.
“Uhm…I’m…”
Sh*t! What do I say?
“You should come over to the house, you need to uhm…clarify something…” Her voice trailed off.
My heart sank.
“Something like what?” I whispered.
There was a loud sigh on the other end.
“I..I can’t explain now, just come over quickly…” The call disconnected. I quickly got out of the bed, ignoring my pounding head. I sighted my party dress, it laid on a heap on the floor.
I picked it up and wore it, my heart heavy with apprehension.
I dashed out of the room, some people were cleaning up the party venue. They raised suspicious brows when they saw me dash out of the room,I ignored them and hastened away.
I tried to brainstorm on what could possibly be wrong, I couldn’t even think straight.
I flagged down a cab and went home.
When I got home, mom was preparing breakfast.
“Where’s Amber?” I asked after dispensing with the greetings.
“She’s still sleeping, she came home drunk. Why didn’t you tell us that you’ll be sleeping over at Danny’s” she asked with a little smile.
Because I didn’t!
“It was kinda impromptu, sorry mom.” I forced a smile, my mind was still in a turmoil. “I’ll go and have my bath now.” I hastened out of the kitchen.
I hurriedly showered. I dressed up casually in blue jeans and black shirt, I rolled up the sleeves to my elbow.
As I hurried downstairs, mom came out of the kitchen with food.
“Are you not going to eat before going Kelly?”
Truth is I don’t have any appetite.
“No mom, I have a very important meeting with danny right now, you go on and eat, I’ll make pasta when I return.” I k-ssed her cheeks as she opened her mouth to protest.
“Don’t worry mom, I’ll be back quickly.” I said, and dashed out of the house. I quickly got into my car.
◀Danny’s house▶
Alright Kelly, I can do this, I can do this.
I took a deep breath and walked into the house. I saw Kori in the dining room, looking into her phone. She looked up when she heard me come in, a look of relief washed through her face.
“Kelly…” She stood up and hugged me.
“What do I need to clarify?” I asked quietly. She brought her phone closer to my face. I gasped at what I saw.
Me in bed, with another girl!!
It was obvious from the pictures that we were having s€×! But the worse part was the insane smile on my face, that was unlike me..that was not me.
My eyes w¡dened, as I took a step backwards.
“N..no… This is not…true… That’s not…me..” I stammered, my eyes still glued to the pictures.
But that was me, the silver bangs, my lacy b-ra and thongs, I remember my own undies, but the person wearing them..that can’t be me, I’m not a l-sbian, I’ve never k-ssed a guy, much less a girl!
“Kelly…” Kori began softly.
“You actually believe that… I’m g-y?…you… Believe… This Photoshop…”
“No, not that Kelly… The thing that’s more confusing is that you were the one who sent me and danny this pictures.”
My heart sank, sank deep into my stomach.
Danny has seen the pictures… But…
“How do you mean I sent the pictures?”
This is so unbelievable, is this a prank?
“You sent me the pictures through your Instagram account, and then…” She gave me her phone.
I took it with shaky hands.
Sure enough it was my Instagram account @kelly_Kim , there was even a caption for the pictures.
💬This is the real me, so stop matchmaking us😝
My heart sank deeper, I collapsed into the couch, cold sweats broke out on my forehead.
I didn’t send this pictures, I never did.
“You know this is not true…Kori… You know..”
She smiled.
“I know sweetie, I know. This is all a setup.”
I felt grateful. We hugged.
Who could have done this? Who the heck was that woman?
“Right now, all we have to do is to convince danny…” She was saying. I saw him descending from the stairs. I quickly pulled away from Kelly
“What are you convincing Danny for?” He asked, coldly. His gaze was unfriendly and distant.
“That I’m not g-y.” I said quietly, looking down.
I heard him scoff loudly.
“You’re not g-y?”
“Yes.”
“I don’t care if you’re g-y or not. It’s none of my business.” That one stung me, tears welled up in my eyes.
“But I didn’t send those pictures…” I whispered, trying hærd not to let my tears fall.
“I didn’t ask who sent the pictures, and I don’t appreciate the fact that you sent the pictures, I mean it’s your life, you should live your live the way you want. But I won’t tolerate you sending me pictures of your promiscuous lifestyle.”
“But…”
“And the caption on the picture, that’s so pathetic. And I thought maybe you’d be different from other girls Kelly… Why were you afraid to tell me when I asked you about your dating life yesterday? You should have just looked me in the face and say ‘I’m g-y’ but sending me pictures? That’s very, very low of you.”
“Danny!” Kori said.
“And to think I held you in high regards… I’m disappointed Kelly.”
But I didn’t send those pictures, hot tears rolled down my cheeks.
“Then who sent those goddam pictures?” Kori asked in frustration.
“I don’t know, and I don’t care.”
Why is he like this? I thought he’d be understanding? Why is he so ready to believe the bad things about me? 😭
Where’s dray god?😭
“But I didn’t send the pictures… I swear to God I’m not g-y, I didn’t…” Tears poured out of my eyes, I looked into his face,, cold,hærd and expressionless.
“Why are you telling me that? I said I don’t care. You can live your live the way you want, I don’t give a sh*t about it.”
I felt my heart break to tiny piece.
“Danny, you’re harsh on Kelly, you should listen to her.” Kori said pleadingly.
“Kori, just stay out of this!”
He made to walk away, upstairs.
I moved forward, quickly and stood before him, preventing him from leaving. I slowly wiped my tears and sniffed loudly.
Then I turned my face up to him.
“You say you don’t care, right?” I asked calmly, after recollecting myself.
“I don’t.” I looked into his eyes.
“Good. Cos I don’t care too. Even if I’m g-y, and so what? You have no right to judge me!” I stated hotly.
“I didn’t judge you.” He said, looking confused.
“Then why are you angry? Why are you upset that I’m g-y?”
“Why the heck would you send me pictures of you f**king a girl!”
“Because I never…! Forget about that. You’re angry that I sent you the pictures and not because I’m g-y, right?”
“Yeah.” He said coldly.
“Good. I’m sorry about that. I promise I won’t do it again.you happy now?”
“Wh..”
“Good. Let’s resolve the case amicably as friends.” I stretched out my hands towards him. He stared at me for a long time.
“No, we are not friends.” He said, never taking his eyes from my face.
My hands dropped limply to my side.
“You’re taking this too far danny.I’m sure I’m not the only l-sbian in this world.” I said.
“I can assure you you’re not.” I stared at him for a long time. Then I shrugged.
“Suit yourself.” I said and walked off.
“Kelly wait!”
It was Kori.
I increased my pace and got in,side my car.
“Kelly!” She banged the window of the car, I wind down the tinted windows.
“I’m sorry about his behavior.”
“I don’t care about his behavior Kori, I don’t care what he thinks about me.”I stated, with a fake smile.
“Liar. I know you do.”
My heart felt heavy. Last night as we laughed, it felt so magical, I didn’t want it to end. But it has ended, I’m heartbroken.
Whoever did this I hope you’re happy now.
“I don’t Kori.”
“Don’t worry, he’ll soon come around. I’ll find out who’s behind this.” She said. I felt touched.
“Thanks, you’re sweet.” I was already tearing up.
“Where are you headed to?” She asked with concern.
“Home.” I said quietly.
“Alright, I’ll find out who’s behind this.”
“Bye.” The chauffeur drove the car out of the compound.
Why am I so eager to prove to danny that I’m not g-y? Why does his opinion about me suddenly matters to me?
I stared out of the window…
~Danny~
I flopped down heavily on the bed. That girl is really something else, full of surprises. She didn’t seem like someone who preferred to have s€× with the same gender.
And she had openly admitted it. And she still wants me to be friends with her?!
Her caption on the pictures had angered me greatly.
💬Don’t try to fall in love with me, you don’t stand a chance anyways…
So arrogant, what makes her think I’ll fall in love with her?
Just because she have a pair of l-ips that I’m curious to know how it taste like does not mean I’ll fall in love with her.
But still, I felt a little hurt.
I couldn’t place my hands on the reason.
The door to my room opened roughly and Kori stormed in, her face flushed with anger.
“Danny, you have to go and apologize to Kelly!” She stated angrily.
I sighed loudly.
“I’m not doing that Kori.” I said and turned my back to her.
“Yes you are. You know that she’s not g-y!”
“She said so herself.”
“You hurt her emotions danny! ”
She also hurt mine🙁🙁
“I did not say anything wrong Kori, I just expressed my disappointment.”
“You’re wrong danny! Someone set her up.”
I grew annoyed.
“Why are you so interested in trying to prove her otherwise? She’s a l-sbian and that’s it!! Has she brainwashed you too or are you two lovers!!?” I don’t remember the last time I raised my voice against Kori. My accusations was also baseless.
She stared at me, for a long time, without blinking. I felt bad.
“Look I’m sorry…” I began.
“If that’s how you feel…”
“Kori…” The door slammed in my face. I picked up the bedside lamp and smashed it on the floor.
Arrgh!!
What’s wrong with me?!!
I heard Damian’s car drive in. I heaved a sigh of relief. At least I have someone to talk to.
I rushed downstairs.
“Hey man.” We shook hands.
Kori ran out, she hugged Damian.
“I’m glad you came Damian, sit down.” She didn’t even spare me a glance.
Damian was surprised.
“Someone set Kelly up.” She said, after he had sat down.
He looked surprise.
“How? Where’s is she?” She silently handed him her phone.
“She left for home, because she couldn’t bear to sit here and be insulted by… Never mind the person’s name.”
I sighed inwardly and looked at her pleadingly.
“Hmm..this is tricky. The pictures were sent from her own account.” He said with a deep frown.
“Nobody has access to her account except her.” I said lamely.
“Have you never heard of the word ‘hack’ before? Moron..” She hissed out, and eyed me viciously.
She talked to me💃💃
Thank God.
“I would have suspected April, but she can’t even remember her Instagram account password, much less hacking an account.” She continued.
“This is very tricky. Did you see the look on Kelly’s face? Is that a smile on her face? That shows that she’s enjoying it, and also aware that she’s been recorded.”
“That’s Photoshop.”
“This is very tricky.” He sighed, rubbing his forehead.
“You’ve said that before, say something else!” Kori snapped impatiently.
“I don’t know what to say.”
“Don’t you think it’s a setup?” Kori asked.
“I don’t know. There’s a fifty percent chance that it’s a setup, there’s another fifty percent that’s it’s not a setup.” He silently gave her the phone.
“Which side are you on? I need to know if you’re with me or against me…”
Damian looked into my face, and then at Kori’s face.
“Did you guys have a quarrel?”
“Answer the damn question!”
The door opened and April walked in.
“Hey guys!” She said, smiling brightly. She leaned forward and k-ssed me fully on the l-ips.
Kori snorted and hissed loudly.
“What’s the matter? Why are you all gloomy?” She sat beside me and put her hands around my shoulders.
“Nothing that concerns you hoe!” My sister rudely said. April rolled her eyes.
“I was not talking to you stupid.”
“Then you keep your mouth shut!”
Uh-uh another row.
“Ladies, please.” Dray god intervened. “Show some decorum.”
“Your sister started it.” April hissed out.
Kori clicked her tongue noisily.
“Anyways sweetheart, I hope you’re not feeling too bad about this Kelly girl? I told you she’s no good.” She smiled almost sympathetically at me
“How do you mean?”Damian asked, exchanging looks with Kori.
“I mean she always appeared so innocent, who would have thought she was a l-sbian…”
😒
Are you guys thinking what I’m thinking?
“Who told you she’s a l-sbian? How did you find out?!” Kori asked, furiously.
“What do you mean, how did I find out?”
“You were the one who set her up! That explains how you know that she’s g-y!”
“What are you talking about?”
“Shut up slut, don’t play smart here!” Kori viciously slapped April’s face. She scre-med
“Danny! Your sister slapped me!”
“I’m doing it again!”
Whack!
“Kori stop.” I said.
Damian dragged her away from April.
I turned to face April.
“How did you know that Kelly is g-y?”
Nobody could have leaked out the information, not to April
“I..I…”
Gosh!
I couldn’t believe this…
April set Kelly up.
She tried to touch me, I stepped away from her.
“Don’t touch me April! Don’t! You went too far!”
“I’m sorry…” She pleaded. Tears running down her face.
“Danny, go and bring Kelly back here! Now!” Kori said, with that voice that said ‘don’t disobey me’
I nodded.
“Danny, don’t bring her back here! Don’t go anywhere!” April scre-med.
I’ll bring her back here, I’ll apologize.
“Hurry! Now!” Kori scre-med like an insane person..
“Danny! Don’t you dare!”
I saw Kori grab April’s hair.
“Now, I’ll teach you some lessons, so that when next you set someone up, you’ll be much smarter.”
“Leave me alone you bitch!”
Whack! Whack!
I heard April scre-m.
I walked out of the house, I’ll go and apologize… Gosh…I can’t believe it, I’m an idiot.
