Chapter Five: Boost your ego and just fucking rubbed it in
“You’re still here?” I asked in surprise when I found Trey in front of the stove, cooking some shit for breakfast.
For Sigrid’s safety, I really hope it’s edible.
“You wouldn’t mind, right?” He asked back.
I raised my eyebrow as the corner of my lips turned up. “You can move here if you want. You have my blessings.” I replied, winking at him.
Trey chuckled and shook his head in amusement.
“Armie!” Someone exclaimed scandalously behind me.
Of course, what a virgin reaction.
I rolled my eyes. “Stop overreacting Sigrid and besides Trey is quite hot.” I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly and wiggled my eyebrows in a teasing manner. “Maybe we can put him in a cage. Stared at him for hours or asked him to do something entertaining. He’s pretty damn good looking to be wasted.”
Trey burst into laughter while Sigrid stared at me dumbfounded.
“Are you still high?” Sigrid asked and snorted, blushing furiously.
“You’re the one who let him sleep here.” I reminded her which made Sigrid blush even more.
Sigrid waved her hands dismissively. “Whatever.” She mumbled as she sat beside me.
Trey placed some shit in front of me.
I waved my hand. “No thanks.” I said.
I placed it in front of Sigrid as she digs it.
It is not poisonous after all nang makita ko yung maganang pagkain ni Sigrid at hindi pagbula ng bibig nito.
I grabbed my bag and placed my phone inside.
“You’re not going to eat?” Sigrid asked after a few minutes.
I nodded my head absentmindedly. “Not hungry.” I replied, searching for my car key.
“What about you?” Tanong ni Sigrid kay Trey na kanina pa nakatingin lang dito.
“Oh please, he’s not hungry.” I said, grabbing an apple and placing it inside my bag.
Sigrid and Trey looked at me in confusion.
I stood up and shrugged my shoulders. “Men only have two emotions, it’s either they are hungry or horny. And the way I see it. You’re the one he wants for breakfast.” I replied, pointing my finger in Sigrid’s direction and Trey’s pants.
“Armie!!What the fudge!” Sigrid shrieked, eyes widened and jaws dropped.
Trey chuckled while Sigrid glared at him warningly.
I giggled and just winked at them. “Just a quick reminder, our table is a No! No! I eat there.” I said before I stride away, leaving an amused Trey and blushing Sigrid behind.
“Hey, where are you going??” Sigrid asked as soon as she regained her composure.
I glanced over my shoulder and groaned. “I need to go to this fucking boutique and fucking fit my fucking gown for Robbie and Chelle’s fucking wedding.” I replied grumpily.
I completely turned around when I remembered something. “Speaking of fitting. Tapos na ba kayo?” I asked in my hopeful tone.
Sigrid nodded her head.
“Yesterday.” Trey replied, chuckling and smirking at my direction.
“Bummer.” Naiinis na naglakad ulit ako papunta sa front door habang naririnig ko yung tawa nila Trey at Sigrid.
==================
“You look so beautiful, Ma’am!” The shop assistant exclaimed as she scanned me from head to toe with an absolute glint of admiration in her eyes.
I know right? But this freaking gown makes me want to puke. I hate weddings and anything related to that shitty word.
Darn Robbie’s emotional blackmailing skill. He knows I can’t “really” say no to him. Especially if he was acting like a freaking wussy about this whole wedding ordeal.
I sighed and looked at the shop assistant beside me, who’s still looking at me with pure adoration in her eyes. “This is already fine. There’s no need for changes. It fits perfectly.” Turo ko sa suot kong gown.
She beamed at me like I’m her high price or something.
I shook my head in amusement and decided to change to my normal clothes before she got down on her knees and offered me some shitty flowers.
After a few minutes, I heard a knock. I frowned and combed my hair using my fingers.
What is she? A fangirl?
I sighed and grabbed my bag. “Is there anything you need?” I asked as soon as I stepped out without looking at her. I’m rummaging my bag, looking for my darn car key again.
I frowned when I heard nothing but silence.
I stopped searching for my key and looked up, only to find Devon in front of me.
I shrieked. “Oh God!” I exclaimed. “Is Devil always like this?” I continued, still holding my chest in surprise.
Devon crooked his head and placed his both hands inside his pockets. “Devilishly handsome?” He asked, there’s a glint of amusement in his eyes.
I scoffed in disbelief. “No.” I rolled my eyes. ”Sneaky and annoying.”
“I’m hurt, wild rose.” Devon said dramatically, clutching his chest. “And here I thought, you’re happy to see me.”
I snorted. “When hell freezes over. What are you doing here?” I asked, snapping at him.
Devon chuckled. “Rehearsal. Chelle’s order and you’re not answering your phone.”
Rehearsal? We were just going to walk on a freaking aisle! How hard it could be?
Wait! Chelle’s order?
What’s with the familiarity?
I raised my eyebrow. “Chelle?” I asked suspiciously.
“We’re quite close. You didn’t know that?” He asked back, sounding as annoying as he is.
Close? What the heck!
I drew a deep breath, trying to calm myself.
I shook my head and sighed in resignation. “As if I want to hear anything about you.” I mumbled.
“You once did.” Devon said, looking at me pointedly.
Yeah right!
“Boost your ego and just fucking rubbed it in!” I exclaimed, glaring at him.
Devon chuckled amusingly and how I wish I can whack his head off for being a jerk and so annoying.
“Why didn’t Trey say something about this freaking rehearsal this morning?” I mumbled under my breath.
Devon’s face turned serious and his eyebrows pulled together in anger. “Trey’s with you? Did Greg know about this?”
I huffed and lifted my chin in defiance. “Mind your own fucking business Devon.” I said, bumping his shoulder as I passed him.
He grabbed my arm and pressed me against the wall. “Tired of my cousin, now?”
I raised my eyebrow. “What are you going to do? Take revenge for your cousin’s virtue?” I asked back in a taunting manner.
Devon’s eyes darkened dangerously as he peered at my face. “Why would I do that? If I want you by myself.” Devon murmured, pressing his body against mine.
I gasped and gaped at him.
“Surprise, wild rose?” He asked cockily.
I clenched my fist. “Not really. But too bad. You don’t interest me!” I spat out, pushing his body away from me.
Devon chuckled and shook his head in humor. “I can work it out.” He replied, looking straight into my eyes.
Like what he did to me before!
Fuck him!
I closed my eyes and heaved a deep sigh, trying to calm my nerves.
I opened my eyes and put a smile on my face. “Maybe.” I said huskily, placing my hands on his shoulders.
I smiled broadly at him.
Devon threw me a weary look.
I pressed my body against him and leaned forward.
I saw him gulp.
I smirked. “Maybe in your fucking dreams!” I exclaimed and kicked him in the nuts!
“Shit!” Devon yelled as he grabbed his precious balls.
I snorted and pushed him away.
“Asshole!” I spit out and leave him shrieking in pain.
“You’re gonna pay for this Wild Rose!” I heard him scream.
I kept walking and just lifted my middle finger, without looking back.
Fucking bastard!
