Part 2
"Come on Chloe." Sienna whined. "You have to come to this party with me. Everyone's going to be there."
"By everyone you mean
Christian Redfern." Chloe said
sourly.
"Yeah him to, but you have to
come with me. His brother will be there
and he's the one with the car." Sienna said slyly.
Chloe knew what Sienna was up
to. She was trying to con her into
going to the party. "You can go by
yourself you know." Chloe said
trying to get her to stop bugging her.
"No I can't Chloe!" Sienna gasped. "I'll look desperate."
"And we wouldn't want that now
would we." Chloe muttered to
herself.
"What?" Sienna asked.
"Nothing. I'll go to the party with you on one
condition," Chloe said.
"What…" Sienna asked a
little hesitantly.
"We aren't there for that long
and you won't try and set me up with anyone." Chloe said.
Sienna's face broke out into a big
grin. "Alright! Now what do you think I should wear?"
Chloe laughed.
********
"Thankyou so much for coming
with me." Sienna said for what
have must have been the hundredth time.
"No problem. But remember, we aren't going to be here all
night." Chloe said to her.
"Okay. Do I look alright?" Sienna asked Chloe, smoothing down her black
leather skirt and fixing her halter-top.
"Yes, you look great, gorgeous,
stunning. How many times do you want me
to say it?" Chloe said
exasperated.
"Thanks, you look great to you
know Chloe." Sienna said smiling
impishly. But she was right, Chloe did
look stunning, with her black leather pants and electric blue tube top,
everyone that they had passed so far had watched to two of them walk by.
"Come on," Chloe said
pulling Sienna into the house. "Let's get this over with."
The house, if you could call it
that, was stunning, and huge. Three
storeys high with marble floors and staircase on either side of the hall, it
was something you could just keep looking at.
"Sienna! Chloe!" Christian said walking up to the two girls. "Glad you could make it."
"Well we didn't think we'd be
able to for a little while there. But
we got here." Sienna said looking
up at Christian like a lovesick puppy dog.
"Yeah, almost thought we'd
miss it," Chloe said sarcastically.
"What was that,
Chloe?" Christian asked.
"Nothing," Chloe said
smiling sweetly. "So where is
everyone?"
"By the pool mostly. Everyone's gone swimming, the pools heated
so if you want to swim you can, and if they aren't there then there somewhere
in the house."
"Swimming pool?" Sienna said, she loved swimming and took
every chance she could to swim. "But I didn't bring my swimming costume."
"We have spares in the guest
room if you want to go swimming." Christian said helpfully. "Do you want to get one now?"
"Sure," Sienna said
smiling and following up the stairs, presumably to the guest room.
"Don't worry about me,"
Chloe muttered to herself. "I'll
find my way by myself."
"Why would you want to do that
when I'm here?" A husky voice said
from the doorway.
Chloe spun around, shocked. She hadn't known that anyone else had been
there, the guys was gorgeous though, dark blond hair and sapphire blue eyes, a
total hunk. "Who are
you?" She asked suspiciously. "And why are you lurking in doorways?"
The hunk smiled, showing perfect
teeth and two dimples that made him look a little bit innocent, though Chloe
thought that wasn't true. "I
wasn't lurking. I'm Connor Redfern to
answer your other question, and you are?"
"Chloe," was all she
said.
"Just Chloe?" Connor asked raising his eyebrows.
"No not just Chloe. Chloe Morris." Chloe said. She looked away form his eyes when she realised that she was
staring. "So how do I get to
everyone else?"
"Are you sure that's where you
want to be?" Connor asked raising
his eyebrows.
Now Chloe knew what his problem
was, his ego was about the same size as this house. So she said sweetly, "If it means I'm going to be away from
you, yes."
"That hurts," Connor said
placing his hand on his chest in mock hurt. And what a nice chest it was, Chloe noticed. "But I'll take you to the party if that's what you
want."
"It is." Chloe said. Following him through the house. It really was a beautiful house. Old artwork was hanging everywhere and antiques as well. She really hadn't pictured Connor as someone
who would have this kind of artwork and she said so.
"It's not mine. It belongs to my parents. They like all of this crap." He said scowling at the paintings.
"You have parents?" Chloe asked shocked. He also didn't seem the type that would have
any.
"Of course I have
parents. How do you think I got
here?" Connor asked amused.
"I don't know. You just don't seem the type to have
parents. You're independent."
"What makes you think
that?" Connor was getting more
amused by the second.
"The party. I really don't think your parents would want
a party this size at their house just after they moved in."
"They wouldn't." Connor said. "But they're not here yet. They arrive next week."
"So you're throwing a party to
get to know everyone?" Chloe
said. "Somehow I don't think that
's the real reason the you're doing this."
But before Connor could answer the
question they arrived to real party. And that is what it was. People
were everywhere, dancing, swimming, drinking, doing practically everything you
could image.
"Well I must say
something. You really know how to throw
a party. Thanks, bye!" Chloe said and walked off.
"What was that all
about?" Tyber Blackthorn asked
Connor as he walked up to him with a drink in his hand.
"Nothing," Connor said
watching Chloe walk away. She really
had a cute butt, he thought to himself.
Tyber said exactly what Connor had
been thinking. "Nice ass. Who is she?"
"Chloe Morris." Connor said turning to his friend. "She goes to school with my
brother."
"Speaking of him." Tyber said looking around looking for
Christian. "Where is he?"
"Last I saw he was taking some
girl upstairs to get a bathing suit." Connor responded.
Tyber laughed, throwing his head
back. More than a few girls looked his
direction when he did this. And who
could blame them? Tyber was gorgeous,
dark, dark brown hair and amber eyes, he was a girl magnet. "Is that all he's doing?"
"Probably not." Connor agreed. "But if it's not, good for him."
**********
"So where's the guest
room?" Sienna asked as she
followed Christian down on of the long halls of his house.
"Just around the corner." Christian said.
"That's what you said a while
ago." Sienna muttered. "How big is this house anyway?"
"Pretty big," he
laughed. "I've almost gotten lost
a few times before. But you get used to
it."
"So," Sienna said trying
to make conversation. "How do you
like it here so far?"
Christian shrugged, "It's okay. I'll be all right after a bit of adjusting. Here we are." He said throwing open some doors and leading Sienna into the
room. "The swimming costumes are
in that draw. You have the choice of a
fill piece a two-piece with something to it or a two-piece that's barely
there. The choice is yours. I'll leave you to change; I'll be outside so
call me where you're ready." He
left the room closing the door behind him.
Sienna looked around the room in
awe. It was beautiful! There was artwork everywhere, but the main
thing that caught her attention was the huge four-poster bed that graced the
centre of the room. Like Chloe liked
BMW's, Sienna liked big beds. She
resisted the temptation of lying on it and went to get changed. She chose on of the two-piece costumes, but
one that had some substance. It was
beautiful, dark red; almost the colour of blood and the bikini top had shells
covering her breasts, like in the Little Mermaid. Overall Sienna knew that she looked good.
When she opened the door to let
Christian in she almost laughed at the statement on his face. He looked like he had seen a ghost. His face had gone white and he couldn't stop
staring at her.
"Do I look okay?" Sienna asked turning around for him. If it was possible he went even paler and
his eyes almost fell out of his head.
He got a hold of himself and
swallowed deeply. "You look great
now let's go downstairs so we can get to the party." Although I think my own party up here would
be nicer, Christian thought to himself, but he didn't say anything to Sienna.
