Hey guys, what do you think so far? I can't believe that we are at this stage of our story, and I hope you enjoyed where I have gone with this. Much love, RSD xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo.
Weeks flew past and before I knew it me and Ben had been a couple for a month; yes Evie kept questioning what was going on between me and Ben and I just kept maintaining that we were just dating. Yes I felt bad for keeping this from Evie but me and Ben had decided that we didn't want anyone knowing about our relationship until we were feeling happy and we felt like we were in a good place.
We were currently on a night out with the whole group of our friends and me and Ben had decided that tonight was the night that we told everyone. All the way through the night me and Ben kept at a close enough distance to dance with each other and cuddle but we didn't have our hands all over each other. I knew that our friends knew that we were dating; and I knew that they probably thought that we were going to get back together at some point. I just didn't think they were going to expect this soon.
After Ben excused himself to go to the toilet me and Evie went to the dancefloor in Ever After and we started dancing on the dancefloor. As we got well into our dance I felt someone put their hand on my right shoulder and when I spun around my eyes widened in shock.
"Hey Mal" a blonde haired, green eyed, tall, very muscular man dressed in a red t-shirt and light blue jeans said as he started to dance next to me.
"Hey" I said as I pulled one brow up in confusion.
"Do I know you?" I asked as me and Evie stopped dancing.
"No" he grinned as he stopped dancing and he stepped closer to me.
"But I would like to change that" he slurred.
"Sorry I'm not interested" I dismissed. I needed to make sure that this guy was out of the way when Ben came back; as he wasn't going to like this at all.
"Aw come on" he said as he wrapped his right arm around my waist.
"No!" I exclaimed as I tried to step out of his arm but he pulled me back to her. I watched as Evie's eyes widened in shock and I shook my head; I didn't need her to get involved. I could deal with this - hopefully I could deal with it quickly.
"Bobby said you would be game" he purred as he started bringing his face closer to mine.
"Well Bobby is wrong" I snapped and I shoved him away and his arm flew from me.
"You need to leave me alone" I said as I glared at him and crossed both of my arms over my chest.
"You are really beautiful" he flirted.
"Erm-" I started as I pursed my lips together.
"Thank you" I added.
"But I am really not interested sorry" I urged hoping that he would take a hint before I had to really put him in his place.
"I see" he nodded.
"Have you had a better offer?" he questioned and I sighed. By the looks of it I was going to need to hint on to him that I was taken; I didn't really care if he knew about me and Ben. People are going to find out tonight anyway; and to be honest I really couldn't wait.
"If you must know I am seeing someone" I pressed.
"What? Who?" he quickly questioned as his face dropped.
"That is my business" I shrugged.
"You're lying!" he accused as he stepped closer to me however this time he didn't wrap his arms around me - thankfully.
"You're just not interested" he pouted.
"Well you are partly right; I am not interested. But I am really taken" I answered as I started to panic as I knew that Ben would be close to coming back to me.
"I see" he nodded.
"Well I am sorry for bothering you" he said.
"Better luck next time" he winked at me.
"Nope" I answered as I shook my head.
"It's that serious?" he asked incredulously.
"You could say that" I nodded.
"I see" he repeated and he quickly span around and walked away and I sighed in relief.
"M?" Evie said as she pulled me close to her.
"Yes?" I asked sweetly.
"You just told him you are seeing someone" she noted.
"Well I am" I nodded.
"You know I am" I reminded her with a sweet smile.
"You said you and Ben are dating" she said as she pulled a suspicious look at me.
"We are" I confirmed as I decided that I was going to let Evie in on mine and Ben's little secret.
"Promise not to say anything?" I begged as I pulled her closer to me.
"Promise" she muttered into my right ear.
"We are also a couple" I confessed into her left ear.
"What? How long?" she asked as she pulled away and looked at me in utter shock.
"For the last month" I admitted.
"You didn't say anything" she accused as she started to look hurt at the fact that I hadn't told her about me and Ben.
"We didn't want to jinx it" I advised hoping that this would defend mine and Ben's actions.
"I see" she noted.
"We are going to tell everyone tonight" I started to explain as my eyes landed on Ben and he shook his head at me.
"However I think I need to speak to him" I sighed.
"Why?" she asked.
"He doesn't look very happy" I said as I nodded at Ben and I watched as Evie looked in Ben's direction. My stomach started to burn in panic as he didn't look very impressed - hopefully I would be able to get him through this. Fingers crossed!
