Chapter Chpater 155
Lana was waiting in my room by the time I got out the shower. She was sprawled out on my bed her bags everywhere.
"What did you bring?". I frowned.
"Bout time you got out that shower. I've been here for ages". She had already poured me a glass of wine.
"I've missed you to". I made a face picking up the glass and taking a sip.
"I really have missed you. I'm looking forward to tonight". She grinned.
"Same". I started rummaging through my closet my eyes landing on my silver sequenced dress. This one left little to the imagination. Holding it against my body I chewed the inside of my cheek. "If you don't wear that I will".
"Black pumps, hair in a ponytail, no jacket?".
"Oh he is in the dog house isn't he?". She smirked.
"No".
"That I don't believe for a second. Every time he pisses you off you dress like that to rile him up. Babe that dress will knock his f*****g socks off".
"Shame he's not going to see me in it".
"Yeah right. You really think he won't show up?".
I shrugged. "Enough about Jake. I want to know how mated life is treating you".
"It's weird, crazy but the sex". She bit her lip. "The best s*x I've ever had. He makes me c*m every time".
"Lana". I rolled my eyes.
"It's fun, I finally feel like I belong. I literally don't think I could live without him".
"Finally she's been tamed". I laughed. "I'm really happy for you. It's nice to see you like this, you're beaming".
"I'm really happy Leah. I never ever thought I'd get my happy ending".
"I'll drink to that".
I really was happy for her but I couldn't help the little bit of jealousy eating away at me. Everyone was mated, having s*x and living their best life except me. "You'll get yours too".
"Do you have shot glasses?".
We were both ready and having pre drinks in the kitchen. Alanna and Rylee were on their way. Lacey wasn't joining us. Her and Jack had an anniversary to celebrate.
"Check the glass cupboard". I connected my phone to my speaker selecting a random playlist on Spotify. I was in two minds whether or not I should call him. He hadn't messaged me back and I didn't like that. I hated being left on read. "So what's Rylee like?". Lana asked.
She almost fell off my bed when I told her Jake had a twin sister. Also thought it was strange that I hadn't heard of her before now.
"She's lovely a little crazy but I know we'll get on fine".
"I still think it's weird no one mentioned her before. Why do you think that is?". She passed me the red coloured shot.
"I'm not getting wasted tonight Lana". I took the shot washing it down with my wine.
"Well I am so drink up". She poured me another shot. "We haven't been out in ages. Can we please just go out get drunk and dance the night away?".
"Fine why the hell not".
"Just like old times". She winked.
Rylee had texted to say her and Alanna were outside. Her mom was dropping us off as the bar we were going to was out of town.
"Drink up they're outside". I grabbed my bag finishing off the wine in my glass. "Go out I'm just locking up".
"I have to say this before we go".
"What?". I frowned.
"Talk to him".
"Jake and I are fine. I'll talk to him tomorrow I promise".
"You're stupid if you think he's not going to turn up tonight. The minute he sees you in that dress.... I want to be there". She smirked. Rolling my eyes I made sure the back door was locked and all the lights were off. I guess I'll see in due time if he shows up or not.
I had been roped into shopping tomorrow and dinner at Jake's parents on Sunday. I couldn't seem to say no to Charlotte, she was the sweetest. "Girls have fun and stay safe"
I glanced up at the bar as I stepped out the car.
'Here Nor There'
I had never been this far out of town before. It looked cozy but I could still hear the music from here. Rylee slipped her arm through mine as Alanna took Lanas. "You okay?". She whispered.
"Yeah". I smiled as the doorman held the door open for us to go inside.
"I thought we'd start here and then see where the rest of the night takes us. I want to get to know you Leah".
Why did her saying that make me nervous? Maybe I was seeking her approval because she was Jake's twin.
"Oh it's nice in here". Lana grinned.
"Grab a seat and I'll get some drinks".
We found a booth in the back. I couldn't shake the feeling that we were being watched. Paranoia at its best. Sitting my bag to the side I sat my phone on the table. "Are you and that brother of mine arguing again?". Alanna asked.
"No why?".
"He was at the gym hitting it pretty hard. Not to mention he's in a foul mood".
Holding my hands up I bit my bottom lip. "Nothing to do with me".
"Just fix it please". Rylee placed the tray of drinks on the table. "You know more than anyone he's the biggest a*****e when yous are fighting".
"Who's fighting?". Rylee passd me a drink.
"No one's fighting". I sighed. "Can we just leave it".
"Yes no more boy talk. Now let's get merry and have the best time".
