Chapter 3
I was a bit surprised to See him in the club, when Scott and Robert walked in to meet us where we were drinking and dancing.
What was he doing here, why must they drag him along? He's the last person I expected to see.
My eyes were spinning around and it felt like I was going to faint or something. I Staggered backward, immediately Scott and Robert were beside me holding one of my arms each.
“Are you okay Becca?” Scott who was worried sick about me asked.
“Yeah, I am fine, just a bit dizzy,” I replied hiccuping.
“How many glasses of alcohol did you drink?” he asked.
“I can't count, I felt like having it.” I replied, my speech not too clear. That was the last thing I said before blacking out.
Waking up the next morning with a hard throbbing headache that felt like my head was about to explode. I looked around the environment and realized that I was in my room.
'How did I end up here?'
The last thing I remembered was partying with Annabel, when suddenly Scott, Robert, and Edward came to meet us. After that, everything became blank and empty like a piece of my memory was wiped out.
How I got to my room is still a mystery to me.
“I see you've woken up from your sleep. Are you sober now or you need some drugs? I got some here for the headaches I know you must be having now.” Scott said leaning on my door frame.
“What happened last night and how did I get home? The last thing I remembered was you asking me some questions, there and then my brain went blank like someone wiped my memory. Now I can't seem to remember anything.” I asked waiting looking patiently at him for answers to my questions.
“You and Annabel drank a lot. If we hadn't got there on time like we did, someone would have taken advantage of you both. They would have taken you home. Robert and I took Annabel in our car, while Edward insisted he take you home in his car so you would have enough time to lie down at the back of his car, he brought you to your room by himself. So when you see him in class on Monday, don't forget to say thank you to him.” Scott said smiling at me.
“Wait! Scott, why did you allow him to bring me in his car, I would have managed with Annabel at the back of your car.” I scolded him feeling shy.
He shrugged.
“You just made me make a fool of my self in front of my crush, how do you expect me to face him on Monday?” I asked unable to understand my crazy brother.
“Oh you are being shy because he saw you drinking and passing out, then I haven't told you about the fun part yet.” He smirked.
“Please don't tell me I embarrassed myself by giving him a kiss or something?” I asked, a bit scared of what he might tell me.
If I did kiss him that would be the end of me and the end of going back to that school. I will never be found in school ever again.
“If you had kissed him it would have been better than what you did. Tik tik tik.” Scott said shaking his head, giving me an 'I am disappointed in you look'.
“Oh s**t, what can be worst than kissing him? Please tell me I am dying to know what I did wrong please.... Please, please, please." I pleaded.
“Don't die on me if I tell you.” he said.
“I won't I promise you.” I brought out my thumb making an I promise you not to die gesture.
“You threw up in his car and on his clothes last night. I had to give him some of my clothes to wear. I told him to stay over but he refused that he had something to do. I suggested he took my car home so I'll wash his by morning but he refused."
I almost choked on my saliva. He patted my back and continued.
"Hmm, I wonder how he drove home with the smell of vomits oozing in his car. I bet he must have died on his way home because he hasn't called me since last night and he isn't picking my calls either.” he dropped the bombshell.
F.cking s**t, can someone please just kill me, please. What did I just do.
“Oh s**t! oh f**k! Please tell me you are joking Scotty.” I said looking straight into his eyes.
He shook his head “oh f**k please kill me, please.”
“I would have loved to kill you but dad and mum are waiting for you downstairs, Anna is already there. So take your pills and come meet them.” he said handing the pills to me.
“Wait why is mum and dad wanting to talk with me? f**k don't tell me they know about it too. jeez Scott why will you tell them what happened?” I raised my voice at him.
“Before you start raising your voice. First, I am your elder brother, take note of that; secondly, I didn't tell no s**t. Finally, they returned home earlier last night looking for us and didn't see any of us so they decided to wait for us all through the night, we met them waiting. Coming into the house. I told them that we went to pick you and Anna up. I had to tell them the truth.” He defended.
“Aish, sometimes I wonder if you are my brother or a stranger.” I took the pills he gave to me swallowing it down with water before getting up from my bed to the bathroom.
“Aint you coming down?”
“I am going to brush my teeth before heading down. You ruined my morning, first I have to face dad and mum before thinking of what I will say to Edward and how to apologize to him. Leave my room, you are of no help to me.” I said entering the bathroom to brush my teeth.
I can't believe I messed up so bad. How am I going to face him at school on Monday? I might as well drop out or transfer schools cause I can't stop thinking how badly I have humiliated myself.
I have to swallow my pride and apologize to him on Monday for throwing up in his expensive car.
When I was done I slowly walked downstairs to find Robert, Annabel and Scott standing in front of my angry parents who were tapping their hands on the table. I swallowed hard before joining the three who were standing to face my angry parents.
“Care to explain why you went drinking when you were supposed to be in your rooms reading and doing your duties of an Alpha and daughter of the Alpha?” My dad yelled at Scott and me.
"And you two." He said pointing at Annabel and her brother Robert. "Aren't you meant to be guiding protecting them from danger and from fooling themselves? Why are you guys their beta if you can't protect them or tell them what to do?”
“Dad, it's not what you think. We were bored and since it was Friday we decided to go have fun. It didn't sound like a bad idea or something. It was a Friday evening."
I gave mom a pleading look and she looked away.
"We have today and tomorrow to do anything or everything that we have to do. Please, dad, don't hold it against us please.” I pleaded knowing I have the key to his heart.
“Oh! I see, so you decided to have fun since it was Friday, On whose orders? Was your brother aware that you were going clubbing? What do you think would have happened to you if he hasn't showed up on time?” He asked multiple questions in his usual manner.
“They went to the gym without taking us along, so we decided to have a little fun.” I replied looking sorry.
“If I was going to war, would you have followed me too?” Scott asked, making things more complicated.
“That's different, the cases are different. This is not f.cking fair, we are in this together.”
“How about telling dad, that you wanted to come along because Robert and I were going together with your crush Edward."
This boy is a bit.ch.
"That's why you wanted to tag along. isn't it?” Scott asked.
I... I made an attempt to reply when he interrupted
“Don't you dare lie in the presence of our parents, the Alpha and Luna.”
“Enough both of you.....”
Luna Stacey yelled out, everyone went mute. You could hear the drop of a pin if anyone was careless enough to drop any.
“.........All of you are grounded for one week starting from today. Robert you are exempted because I know you won't do anything except this three drag you into it.” She said commanded.
We now in unison.
Pointing at me. "You... You are going to apologize to Edward Stark on Monday for throwing up on his body and disgracing yourself. Now you all leave my presence before I give you more treacherous punishment to do.”
We bowed in unison again before running to various rooms.
I wasn't sad I got scolded by mum and dad. What's pissing me off is the fact that I disgraced my self in front of my crush, the only person my heart beats for.
How I am going to face him and apologize to him is another thing. I don't think I'll be able to do that but now that mum has given me the order I bet she will have people spying on me. Even if she doesn't, that snitch of a brother will report.
Oh how I hate you Scott.
I have no choice than to do it. I just pray the ground swallows me up after apologizing to him because it would be a huge disgrace to me and I will be embarrassed to death. What am I supposed to do?
I'll kill Scott and send his lifeless body far away from here so nobody will find him.
How can a brother betray and leave his sister to be chewed on like that? I wish for once he would support me and be proud of me, but hell no he won't.
He always finds a way to either mess me up or f**k me up in the presence of our parents. Now I have to go and apologize to Edward because my idiotic brother allowed me to follow my crush, knowing very well that he is the only person I have my eyes on. And he knows how I behave when I am drunk.
Time will tell if I can walk up to him and tell him I'm sorry. I'm afraid he will say spiteful words to me or ignore me and walk away. But mum's order must be carried out or my punishment will be tripled to three weeks and I can't stay in the house while the rest goes out to have fun.
