Chapter 56: Chapter 56

... Sonya first went back to change and join everyone at the table. She sat down beside Maxwell.

"So, for the last part is for games and drinking" Loveth announced. A lot and different kind of drinks were placed on the table.

"The first game is like this. Use the last letter of a sentence to form another one and it's a three word sentence. Anyone who loses gets to drink" she said.

"I'll go first. I love you" she said.

"You are beautiful" Amy responded.

"Beautiful.." Michael stuttered without knowing what to say. "You lost" Loveth poured a drink for him and he drank it.

"Okay let's continue with the next person.

"How are you?" Sonya continued.

"You are here" Maxwell respond.

"Here I am" Charles followed then Evelyn and Simon. They played the game until everyone lost except Maxwell.

"Okay, we are done with that. Let's take the next one. I have never ever" Loveth informed them excited.

"This is my best game, so Evelyn. Your turn" she said and Evelyn cleared her throat to start.

"Please don't say weird things" Sonya pleaded.

"Just wait and see" she replied.

"Hmm, I have never ever kissed someone am not in a relationship with" she said. Everyone took a drink except Charles.

"Whoa! " She said and turn to the next person to go.

"I have never ever smoke" Simon said. Sonya hate guys who smoke and guys like Maxwell must like smoking" he thought. But only Micheal drank.

"You've never smoked before?" He asked directing the question to Maxwell.

"Yes" he answered.

"Michael you are next" Michael thought for a while before answering.

"Never had an open relationship" he said.

"That's too obvious" Evelyn complained and took a drink with Sonya, Maxwell, Charles and Simon.

"I have never ever slept in a man's house overnight" Loveth said next and look at everyone curiously. Evelyn and Sonya quickly gulp down a drink.

"Evelyn, you slept overnight at Zayn's or Charles" she asked in a jeering manner.

"My brother's house" she lied. Simon also felt unease. He has seen her in his house early in the morning and she was putting on a nightwear.

"Sonya has once told him that she will only sleep with her husband and no one else" he thought and reassured himself not to think too much.

"Let's move to the next person.

"I have never ever cheated on someone" Amy said. Everyone look at each other and wait for someone to drink.

"Why are you not drinking?" Evelyn asked Charles.

"I have never cheated before" he answered.

"As if" Evelyn hissed and ignore him.

"I don't believe you Simon. You have cheated before haven't you?" Sonya said.

"I really haven't. Not even once" he replied. Sonya show a disappointed face.

"Do you want me to admit what I didn't do" he asked.

"Liar" Sonya said not believing him.

"Next, Maxwell" Maxwell cleared his throat.

"Never had a serious hangover" he said.

"Boring" Evelyn comment. All of them except from Maxwell took a drink.

"Do you say that just because you are the only one who hasn't not experienced a terrible hangover?" Sonya asked and turn her face to him.

"Not really, I just remembered that someone confessed her feelings because she was drunk" he answered.

"I didn't confess anything then" she replied and turn her away from him.

"Then what about a while ago" he said. Sonya remember the scene and felt shy.

"Let's continue am next" she said instead.

"Have never ever broken up with someone I still love" Everyone look at each other. Charles poured a drink for himself and drank in one go.

"Is that it" Sonya asked suspiciously. Evelyn reluctantly pick on glass and drink and gulp it down.

"Oh" the three girls exclaimed.

"Don't misunderstand. Its another guy" she said.

"No one is asking" Sonya replied.

"Charles, your turn" she added. Charles thought for a while before talking.

"Never fallen in love through the internet" Sonya and Maxwell clink their glass together and drank it.

"You guys fell in love online. I thought you met at the company?" Amy asked surprised like everyone except Michael. "Kind of. We've been talking with each other online for more than three years" Sonya answered.

"What app is that?" Simon cuts in.

"You also know him. Handsome man, the guy I talk to on XXX app" she answered.

"What? You are? This is not true" he said totally surprised. "When she tells him about him, he does not take him serious because he believed that they can never come across each other" he felt angry with himself.

"He shouldn't have helped her to come here. Then his position in her heart wouldn't be this threatened" he thought sadly.

"So she is that you so called invisible girlfriend? Am so telling mum this" Evelyn also said. Next!

"My turn" Evelyn said.

"I have never ever had a one night stand" she said mischievously.

"I love this" Sonya said with a smile. Amy and Michael slowly poured themselves a drink and drank it.

"I thought you Said you've not find your right partner among your blind dates yet, I guess you also sleep with them" Maxwell said jestingly.

"Are you crazy? I didn't do that" Michael denied immediately.

"What are you anxious about?" Maxwell asked and laugh.

"Is not like your so call right one is here" he added.

"Don't mind what he is saying" Michael said to Amy. Amy look clueless like she doesn't understand what he meant and face somewhere else.

"Who is next?" Evelyn asked.

"I have never ever slept with anyone" Simon said. Evelyn was about to drink some water but when she heard him she cough the water back and coughs more.

"Why are you having such a big reaction" Maxwell asked her. "It's nothing" she replied. Charles, Evelyn, Michael and Amy drank. Sonya look at Maxwell intensely.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that"

"nothing" she answered. Evelyn, Charles, Amy and Michael drank. Maxwell pull in closer to Sonya and whispers.

"You said Simon is a Playboy didn't you?" He asked.

"Yes, am surprised he's not drinking" she whispered back.

"I will be the only one to ask from now" Evelyn said.

"Wait, let me say just one" Sonya asked and Evelyn nodded yes. "Okay, i have never ever think about my ex" she said.

"Common on, everyone knows you don't have an ex" Evelyn said.

"doesn't matter, quick drink" Evelyn only drink. She looked at Charles but he didn't take a drink.

"He never thought of me?" She thought sadly.

"Most of them were drunk and wasted.

"I think we should stop for today" Maxwell suggested.

"What about the truth or dare game" Sonya said unwilling to stop.

"You can't even answer the correct question in your state.

"Okay, before we go then, everyone should write an anonymous message for just one person here" Loveth saidEveryone pick a pen and wrote down their message then drop it. Sonya pick the one for her and opened it.

"I love you" it's says. Sonya was surprised and look around for who could have written it for her. She check the note again and recognize the writing.

"Simon?" She thought and look at him but he turn his face away and continue to drink. She felt Maxwell's face near her and quickly hid the note. The content on the note made her eyes clear a little.

"I have to go take this call" he informed and left.

"Evelyn, are you really drunk. Stop drinking" Loveth said and collect the drink from her.

"Charles, why don't you take her back" Sonya suggested.

"Sure" he answered and help her up and went away with her. Amy and Michael also stood up and left.

"I will go check on Maxwell" Sonya said to both Simon and Loveth and left them together. After Sonya left, they both sat down without saying anything to each other. Loveth pick a bottle of wine of gulp down the content. Simon watch her without collecting it or stopping her.

"Simon" she called silently but still audible enough for Simon to hear.

"About what I said yesterday. Can you give me an answer now. Just say yes or no" she said.

"Loveth, I don't.."

"just yes or no" she said again interrupting him.

"No" he answered and stood up.

"Am sorry Loveth" he said and left. Loveth laughed bitterly. She already knows that will be his answer so she shouldn't be surprised but she still felt hurt and greatly disheartened. She weep quietly and continue to drink. Sonya returned there and sat beside Loveth then noticed her tears.

"Why are you crying? What happened?" She asked surprised and snatch the drink from her. Loveth quickly wipe her tears.

"It's nothing" she answered and stood from her seat. Sonya also stood up with her and held her.

"Tell me what happened?" She asked again worried. Loveth yank her hand away from her and walk away. Sonya stood there and wonder what could have happened. Then she remembered that she left her there with Simon. She went away to look for him.

Charles helped Evelyn to her room and help her sit.

"When you know you can't handle it why on Earth did you drink this much" he said.

"Do you really not think about me at all!" She asked.

"Why are you asking that?" He replied.

"Forget it if you don't want to answer.

"Let me help you take off your shoes" he bend down and start to remove them. Evelyn lower her head down to him.

"Why do you always care for others except me?" She asked another question. Charles stopped what he was doing for a second and continue. Evelyn rested her head on the arm of the couch.

"Am sorry I misunderstood you. I guess I was afraid of losing you too to someone else I should have known better" she murmured and start to doze.

"Hey you can't fall asleep like that you need to take a bath" Charles said and tap her awake. She suddenly hug him around his waist.

"I still like you. Very much" she said and release him. Charles heart skipped a beat.

"I will leave now" he said quickly and pull her away from him and left the room. Evelyn watch him Leave. After he left she stood up and remove the first layer of her clothes. Leaving her with a sleeveless top and a knicker underwear. She wanted to remove that too when she heard a knock on the door. She stopped and went to open it but before she could, the door opened and Charles entered. He grab her and pull her to the wall.

"What are you doing?" She asked startled. Charles place his head on hers and heave deeply. He move his head down and kissed her neck softly, he opened up more and kisses her more on her neck.Evelyn whole body tremble and the word she wanted to say were lost. She moan softly and knotted her fists in his shirt, Charles saw her response and move down to her face. He suck on the corner of her lips and use his hand to caress her bosom. He lift his hand and find his way into her under wears. He move his hand skimming over her skin. Evelyn felt arouse more and wanted more. She close her eyes deeply and continue to moan to his touch.

“if you want me to stop, say it now" he whispered to her ears and suck on them.

"I missed your body” he said. Evelyn opened her eyes and touch his chest. She look at him seductively and remove his shirt button one by one. Charles smiled and quickly removed them and finally captured her lips. Evelyn felt herself in another world. She really missed the taste of his lips on hers. They deepen the kiss and it became intense, they were both hungry for each other and like they couldn’t get enough they wanted more. Charles remove her top leaving her with just her singlet. He rolled over to the bed side and continue kissing.
