Chapter 8

Henley

Oh wow!

It was just a dream! I wiped my forehead as I stepped down from the bed.

My head was banging hard, so hard that it felt like it would fall off soon.

Putting on my flip-flop slippers, I moved to the mirror and looked at my reflection.

I was looking so messed up, my hair was messy and my eyes were wet.

I was even crying?

I turned to the wall clock and it was just 2 am, sighing I walked to the door and opened the door.

I was feeling so hungry, because of Sandro I couldn't eat before sleeping.

Maybe that was the reason for those nightmares.

I walked down the stairs slowly, I wouldn't want to wake any of them.

I walked into the kitchen, everywhere was so dark except for the little light I brought along with me.

I opened the fridge and smiled when I saw so much food there.

I took an ice cream and a waffle.

"Are all Andrews like this?" My eyes widened and I turned back only to gasp.

"Why the hell do you love staying in the dark?" I asked, my hand going to my chest.

"Are all Andrews gifted with the art of stealing?"

"Sandro stop."

"No, it's just a question, Henley. Do not be offended. Instead of sleeping, here you are. roaming around in the dark."

"And what about you?"

"Oh please, it's my mansion. I can do whatever I please." He said, and I nodded.

"I don't have time for this," I said and was about to walk away when he stood up.

"When you steal once, you'll steal twice and when you keep it up..it never leaves the skin." He said again.

"I only took an ice cream and a waffle all because you made me cry my eyes out and then I fell asleep, and no one could wake me up for dinner," I said, tiredly.

I just wanted to go up to my room and sleep.

"I made you? We both know you cried because you knew what was wrong. What you did wrong."

"I didn't do anything."

"It's okay. Go ahead and deny it." He said, and I frowned.

"What the hell is wrong with you Sandro? What've I ever done to you? Why do you keep labeling me as a bad guy?" I half yelled, stepping back as he stepped forward.

"What you've done? Well, not to worry Henley, when I'm done. I'll make sure you recall every single thing you did." He sneered and walked away from me.

I sighed.

Another drama in the middle of the night.

I shook my head and headed for my room.

•••

The morning was bright like always.

I couldn't sleep a wink ever since I came up to my room at about 2:35 am after the banter between me and Sandro.

It was around 9 am and I had finished taking my bath.

A knock came on the door and I walked to it and opened it.

"Miss Henley, breakfast has been served and you're the only person remaining." The maid said and I nodded.

I came out of the room and locked the door.

Walking down the stairs, I saw that the table was filled up with everyone.

Finny was present and so were Paxton and Jonas and Sandro, along with his girlfriend.

"Good morning." I greeted as I got to the table and Finny smiled at me.

"Come sit here." He said, and I nodded walking to the chair that was In between Finny and Paxton, at least I could get some peace from them.

I looked up at Jonas and he was staring at me as if I was some poisonous snake that would poison the food.

This person!

"What is she still doing here baby?" That annoying baby-like voice asked and I picked up my spoon.

"Just eat Emma."

"Are you here to backstab again Gold digger?" She asked again and I frowned, ignoring her.

"Isn't she the one whose brother stole from you baby?" She asked again.

"Can you fucking stop asking questions that don't concern you? I hate annoying voices!" We all looked up at once.

Wow! It was coming from no other than Jonas.

If Jonas hated her, then who was I to like her?

That means she was even worst than me.

Jonas never liked me, but then he had never yelled at me before.

"Finally some peace," I mumbled.

"And you too Henley." He said and I nodded waving my hands in a gesture that said ' speak no more for my mouth is sealed.'

Breakfast ended quickly because the men had something to do.

I sighed, staring at the huge TV as a movie titled Fifty shades of grey was playing.

My eyes widened when the guy flipped the girl over, pushing her trouser down and she was left only in her panties.

Sandro and others were still preparing to go out.

When I heard footsteps coming down, I hurried to grab the remote and change the movie when I heard someone cough and turned to see Sandro.

"Oh wow. So this is what you prefer Henley? Just wow." He said and I hissed, dropping the remote as I let the movie continue.

Sandro rounded the huge couch and sat on the couch close to me

My eyes widened the more when the guy's mouth latched in between the woman's thighs.

How could people act these?

Don't they have families?

How would they react when they're with their family, watching TV, and then their 18+ movies pop up?

I turned to see what Sandro's reaction would be and he was staring at me.

I frowned and glared at him but it only seemed like he was leaning closer to....me?

My eyes widened more than they were and my pupils dilated.

I felt rooted to the spot and when he was so close by...I jerked up, stood up and grabbed the remote, and paused the it.

I coughed hard, my breathing was so ragged as if I had finished running a marathon.

I turned to Sandro and his brows were raised as he glared at me.

"What?"

"Never tempt me, Henley. I regretted it." He said and stood up leaving the room.

Did he regret it?

I didn't know why but then something in me, didn't like that word at all.

Why did he regret it?

Was he still seeing me as the slumps he had once called me?

"Earth to Henley, Ewww...never thought you loved these kinds." It was Finny and he winked at me and I smiled.

He was sure he douchebag.

"I'm very such you love these kinds as well," I said and he shrugged.

"I wouldn't lie, Henry, it's perfect for the eyes and especially when he grabs her b.."

"Shut up." I half yelled, my hands going to my boobs.

"Ohh.... don't tell me you imagined us both Henley." He winked and burst into laughter.

"You're a pervert."

"Don't worry Henley, you're like a little sister to me. I would never have such thoughts for my little sister although she's so hot in that dress which is making me think about my decision on making her my little sister who.."

"Get the fuck out of here," I yelled.

He was teasing me.

He was just two years older than me. Why would I become his little sister!

Sister would be nice, not little sister.

"Yes, Ma'am." He waved, laughing as he walked out of the living room.

"Bye Henry." Paxton waved as he walked out of the living room.

They were going somewhere.

"It's Henley." I corrected and he laughed.

Jerks! All of them were jerks!

"Don't tell me I'll be stuck with her!" I heard the little voice yell and turned to see miss Barbie in adult human form.

"Can you talk like a normal human being? You sound like a cricket, talking with your nose and all."

"Crickets don't talk with their nose, dummy." She said and I chuckled

"How did you know that? Are you cricket?" I asked, and she glared at me.

"I hate you so much, and I'm still wondering why you're here."

"Take a guess," I said, and she frowned.

"Maybe your boyfriend...."

"finacee." She corrected and I nodded.

"Maybe your fiancee still has a thing for me and doesn't want me to walk straight into the arms of another man," I said.

"You have nothing to offer." She gritted her teeth.

"Oh... don't I?" I smiled sweetly flapping my lashes to see her more angered.
