Authors Note: Sorry this took so long but hey it's a little longer than my other chapters. Anyway I'll try to update more often.

The Start of a Beautiful Friendship

It's strange, I usually do my best thinking during oral sex. It doesn't matter if I'm giving it or receiving it, it just has a way of clearing my mind. At this moment I happened to be receiving it. Laying on my bed while looking up at the ceiling, my lilac colored Prada dress was up around my waist while a guy who's name escaped me rested between my legs. He was part of the staff who arrived this morning to help my mother with her latest party. I think he said his name was Ric, or Robert or something...

In any event it didn't really matter, he was just providing a way for me to focus. I awoke that morning (or rather afternoon) feeling a bit agitated. You see it had finally happened, Sebastian had moved out a few days earlier. Just as I was about to reveal my plan for Annette to him he leaves. However that wasn't the thing that was annoying me. It was the fact that the bastard didn't even bother to say good-bye. I arrived home one afternoon to find he had left to go stay at his father's. It wasn't like I wouldn't see him again, on the contrary we were both attending Manchester. Still I was annoyed that he hadn't at least told me good-bye but he obviously had taken the time to say a proper good-bye to my Pollyanna step sister which infuriated me to no end.

So as Randy or whatever his name was went down on me using his rough tongue to bring me off I tried to focus on what I would say to convince Sebastian to go along with my plot. After hearing all about his past and awful reputation I hadn't been worried in the slightest that he wouldn't do as I asked. But after witnessing Sebastian and Annette the past few weeks interact maybe I was wrong. Maybe he actually liked the little trout. At the thought I grabbed at what's his names hair and pulled it in frustration. "Oww" he yelped while looking up at me in confusion.

I rolled my eyes in disgust "don't be such a pussy Rick."

"It's Richard"

"Like it matters" I touched his soft check and ordered "now get back to work. I'm very close."

He looked like he was about to argue but thought against it. Although I doubted I was the first girl to take advantage of his services, I did have a hell of a lot more money than most and could make sure he would have a hard time finding employment if I wasn't properly satisfied.

Once again I tried to lose myself in his actions and thanks to his clever tongue I was just about there was an annoying, persistent knock followed by my mothers voice. "Kathryn dear we need to talk."

I closed my eyes trying to ignore her while willing her to go away. "Not now mother."

"Yes NOW Kathryn" she answered in that annoyingly controlled tone of hers. "Open the door or I will."

I sat up on my elbows and glared at the door. "Fine" I grumbled.

Richard meanwhile was putting his shirt back on while looking around my room in a panic. "Fuck" he muttered "what should I do?"

Raising an eyebrow in amusement I asked completely calm "why are you whispering?"

"Your mother" he hissed "should I hide?"

"No you should leave" I explained slowly as if speaking to a mentally disabled person.

"How?"

I got up and straightened my dress "try the door. Come on" I sighed while dragging him to my bedroom door. I opened it to find my mother on the other side dressed in a kaki and polo shirt that made her look like a soccer mom. She wore these hideous assembles on the weekends when Roger was around. Still she acted like my mother when she reacted to seeing Richard with a bemused expression and said simply "I thought we were missing a worker."

"I needed him to attend to something very important" I told her with mock seriousness. I knew my mother was very aware of what we had been doing and truthfully I could care less. My mother knew all about my sexual exploits and never really made a big deal about it so there was no need to hide anything.

Sighing she looked over at Richard "well why don't you join the others and get back to what I'm actually paying you to do."

"Yes ma'am"

While watching his scamper off she turned back to me and scolded "Kathryn you could at least wait until they're finished..."

I rolled my eyes as I walked back into my room. "What is it mother?"

"Don't get snippy. I wanted to see the dress you got for the party on Wednesday."

"It's hanging on the door" I told her as I took a seat at my vanity table and fixed my hair.

My mother unzipped the garment bag and smiled "oh it's lovely Kathryn. You'll look exquisite."

"I know" I smiled to myself "and I want to borrow that necklace you got in Nepal's last year."

She frowned "sorry I already promised it to Annette."

Slamming my brush on the glass table I demanded "what?"

"The dress she picked is very...plain. She needed something so I offered her my necklace. The girl doesn't have your excellent taste Kathryn, maybe if you would have helped her pick out a dress-"

"Bite your tongue" I snapped. "Even if the little bitch had the good sense not to steal my boyfriend and everything else I've worked for there's no way I would be scene strolling down Madison Ave. with her."

"Fine" my mother sighed knowing there was no sense in pushing the topic further. "Well you can borrow that diamond drop necklaces you were admiring a few months ago."

"Whatever" I grumbled "you know I don't understand why you're throwing this party anyway. I thought you hated Edward Valmont."

Taking a seat on my couch behind he she explained "well he isn't one on my favorite people but throwing a welcoming party is the polite thing to do.."

"He's your best friend ex husband who according to you in a degenerate asshole who couldn't keep it in his pants if his life depended on it."

"Yes that's true but he also has donated a lot of money towards that new library that my committee is heading and he IS Sebastian's father. The parties for him as well as his father."

"Right. Well speaking of Sebastian you must be aware of his reputation"

I was pleased when my mother seemed to flinch in surprise. "What are you talking about?"

"Oh come on mother" I exclaimed as I turned to face her. "He's been kicked out of schools all over Europe and screwed a better part of the western seaboard. You're going to tell me this is news to you?"

"Where did you hear that?"

I smirked "lets just say a little fairy told me. I must say I'm quite shocked you let him stay here what with two impressionable young women at his disposal."

"Oh spare me Kathryn" my mother sighed as he rose from her seat. "Besides they're are just rumors and if they happen to be true...so what."

"So what?" I repeated in shock.

She shrugged "well you have to admit he is a charming boy. Not to mention handsome and wealthy. Frankly dear I'm surprised you're not interested."

"I'm not" I told her firmly while turning back to my reflection. "He might be charming but he's nothing special mother. But by all means if you fancy him I suggest you go for it."

"If I wasn't head over heels in love with Roger I just might" she smiled.

I rolled my eyes in disgust "spare me."

"Besides" she continued on "I think he likes Annette."

At the statement I froze and looked up at her "really?"

"Yes when I spoke to him yesterday she was all he could talk about."

As my mother babbled on my mind began to wander. Did Sebastian really like Annette or was it all an act? If he did it might be far too late to bring him in on my plan. I had to act and soon.

* * * * * *

The following day I went straight to the Valmont home after school. I had gone to school all ready to discuss my plan with him only to discover he ditched. Figures. So while still dressed in my Manchester Prep uniform I arrived at his father's Park Avenue townhouse and was greeted by a Spanish speaking made. She informed me Sebastian was out but I was welcomed to wait. I decided I would go make myself comfortable in his bedroom.

The room was quite large with cream colored walls, hard wood floors and a high ceiling. The room was littered with boxes but was already furnished with beautiful mahogany wood furniture. After snooping around his bathroom and through some of his belongings I was disappointed to find nothing of much interest.

However I soon noticed some videotapes resting on his VCR. On closer inspection I realized they were home videos. The first one had 'Cheryl' written on the front. Shrugging I popped it into the machine. Immediately the room filled with the loud sounds of a girl moaning in ecstasy. Indeed the tape showed two people fucking and it took me a moment to realize the guy on the screen was Sebastian. Noticing the date was marked two days ago I smirked. Perhaps it wasn't too late after all.

I put another tape in and then climbed up on on the big four poster bed. It was quite comfortable so I relaxed back and pushed play. This time the video showed two naked young women laying on the very bed I was sitting on. The blond with large breasts was handcuffed to the bed while a brunette with pigtails was masturbating her using what looked like a vibrator.

I was guessing Sebastian was the one videotaping them because he began to instruct them from off screen. "That's very nice Veronica now lick her nipple." The brunette smirked at the camera as she did as instructed.

Shaking my head I muttered "welcome to Sebastian's wonderful world of porn." Silently I wondered if he taped all of his conquests. It certainly would make things interesting if I could get a film of him doing Annette. Imagine the possibilities.

My thoughts were interrupted when Sebastian suddenly came into the room. He stopped in his tracks when he saw me and by the look on his face he was beyond surprised. I didn't bother to get up only said "you know maybe you should consider directing. You're pretty good."

He glanced at the TV screen with little interest. "Thank you" he replied with that cocky grin "now not that I'm not pleased to see you but what the hell are you doing here Kathryn?"

Leaning back on my elbows I smiled coyly as I purred "I missed you."

"Hmm" he muttered as he got onto the bed. Slowly he crawled over to me letting his body rest on mine. I shifted only slightly allowing my knee to rest between his legs. With his eyes locked intently onto mine Sebastian let his hand slid up my thigh while his other hand caressed my neck. The feeling of his hands touching me not to mention the weight of his body resting on mine wasn't exactly an unpleasant feeling. In fact it was quite arousing.

"Kathryn?"

"Yes" I sighed

"Why don't you cut the shit and tell me why you're really here." Looking up at his smiling face I scowled before pushing him off of me. Sebastian laughed in response "oh come on I know you're only here because you want something. What is it?"

I stared at him a moment and was about to tell him my plan when instead I found myself asking "why didn't you say good-bye?"

He looked a little taken aback at the question but he answered "well I was under the impression you wanted me to stay away from you. You told me as much after you ruined my favorite suit."

I sat up "well maybe I was a little hasty."

"You were?"

"You're an interesting guy Sebastian" I told him as my hands slid up his shoulders. "I mean how many schools were you kicked out of in two years? And that poor girl in London I doubt she'll ever recover after the number you did on her..."

Sebastian smiled as he shook his head "oh it sounds like someone did her homework. I had a feeling you would."

"You have quite the reputation Valmont."

"Yes I do" he said as he leaned back on the bed "so what's it to you Kathryn?"

I smiled "I was thinking I would put it to some use. Are you interested?"

His eyes narrowed "could be. What did you have in mind?"

I let my hand come out as I gently caressed his face "I need you to help me get rid of my darling step sister."

"Why doesn't that surprise me" he sighed. "What do you want me to do exactly."

"Seduce her, get her to fall completely in love with you and then I want you to take that love and use it to destroy her."

"Huh, and what is this suppose to accomplish exactly?"

"It's suppose to get the little bitch out of my life. If you hurt her enough, make her realize that there's nothing in New York for her anymore with any luck she'll leave town and go back to that shit hole she came from. Not to mention I will have the immense pleasure at seeing her pay for what she did to me."

Sebastian nodded "and what would I get for my services?"

I smiled as I straddled his waist "well what do you want?"

Neither of us said anything as he slid his hands back up my plaid skirt. Sebastian started to message my ass making me moan and grind just slightly into him. He bit his lip "you'll offer yourself to me for the whole night?"

"Yes" I whimpered.

"And I can do whatever I want to you, wherever I want?"

"Yes"

"Hmm...let me think about it."

Immediately my eyes shot open as I glared down at him "excuse me? I offer myself to you so you can do whatever your perverted little mind dreams up and you have to think about it? Are you out of your god damn mind?"

He smiled obviously enjoying having the upper hand for once. "I'll admit having you all to myself could be highly enjoyable but I'm not sure it's worth it."

I climbed off of him "it's Annette isn't it? You like her?"

Sebastian shrugged "not really but I don't have anything against the girl."

"You have nothing for her either her. Christ Valmont it's a win win situation. You get me and I get revenge."

"Yes" he agreed sitting up suddenly "but forgive me if I don't trust you to live up to your part of the bargain."

My eyes locked on his I explained "I always honor my promises."

"Right well let me think about it and I'll get back to you."

I glared at his superior grin and spat back "forget it. If you won't do it I'll find someone else who will. Someone with some real balls."

I was beyond livid at this point. No one told me 'maybe' I was use to hearing yes. I couldn't believe I had actually thought Sebastian would be up to this. Obviously I was wrong so I turned to leave.

As I left Sebastian laughed as he called out "good luck with that sweetheart!"

I vowed the and there to forget all about Sebastian Valmont.

* * * * * *

Unfortunately that was easier said than done. A few days later I was attending my mothers party that was being thrown in honor of the Valmont's. Dressed in a beautiful strapless cream colored Ralph Lauren dress I walked around the party trying my best to avoid Sebastian. This proved to be surprisingly simple seeing as I hadn't seen him all night.

Although my mother did her usual perfect job of planning the event I was bored shitless ten minutes into the party. It was the same people talking about the same things. I spent the first hour mingling and being polite but after I downed my third glass of champagne for the night I decided to leave and find some peace and quiet.

I made my way to one of the empty studies and found a bar. Pouring myself a drink I suddenly realized I wasn't alone. Slowly I turned to find a guy leaning against the door frame. He was handsome with dark silky hair, an athletic build, and a perfect smile. The whole look screamed 'good breading' and normally he would be exactly my type but I was sick of being polite. With a heavy sigh I asked "can I help you?"

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to bother you. It's just I've been watching you all night and I've wanted to talk to you."

I took a sip of my scotch and gave him a smile "how nice. Is that all?"

He smiled as he approched me "Are you always this hard to talk to?"

"Not always it's just been a long night."

He nodded "I understand. I just wanted to complement you on the party."

"Oh well my mother is the one you should be complementing"

"I'll do that. I'm Nicholas by the way, Nicholas Valmont."

I nearly dropped my glass as he told me his name. Calmly I set down my glass as I repeated "Valmont?"

"Yes my father is Edward"

"And you're Sebastian's brother?"

His smile seemed to change slightly as he replied "yeah I am. I hope my brother wasn't too much of an inconvenience while he was staying with you. After eighteen years of living with him I know he can be a pain in the ass."

I smiled "I could imagine but it wasn't a problem. I know just how to handle Sebastian."

"Glad to hear it. Well I better be getting back to the party. It was nice meeting you..."

"Kathryn"

"Well it was nice meeting you Kathryn. I hope to see more of you and soon."

I nodded "I imagine you will Nicholas."

As he exited the room and headed back I watched his leave with a hint of a smile. He was cute and obviously intelligent but he lacked his brothers charm and wit. Still he might be an interesting conquest I could just imagine poor Sebastian's face when he wandered in and found me in bed with his big brother. It might just wipe that smug expression from his face to realize Nicholas got me first. I bet he would regret saying maybe to me then.

Just as I was getting lost in my thoughts of revenge a familiar voice called out to me that startled me so much I dropped my glass. "I don't know what was more nauseating about that scene. You're fake gushing or his bullshit."

I spun around just as Sebastian sat up from his position on the couch. "Jesus Christ you scared the shit out of me!"

"Well that was the point" he muttered in his typical bored tone.

"What the fuck" I grumbled as I ignored the mess I had made on the floor and stalked over to him. "Were you eavesdropping on me?'

"No" he said before taking a drink out of the silver flask in his hand"I was looking to escape your 'amazing' party when you interrupted."

"Oh then I apologize" I remarked sarcastically as I took a seat beside him.

He smiled "apology accepted."

I knew I should have been livid at the sight of him and especially the fact that he had been spying on me but for some reason I couldn't bring myself to be. Instead as I watched him slumped down on the couch, drinking out of his flask looking somewhat miserable I almost felt sorry for him. I wondered what brought on his sorry state. "Are you drunk?"

"Not yet" he held out his flask to me and I took it. "But with any luck hopefully soon."

I took a sip of what tasted like pure vodka. "So how come you never told me you had a brother?"

"You never asked." When I only glared at him in response he continued "my relationship with my brother is a lot like yours with Annette. I hate him, he hates me but the joke is we are actually related. We really don't see much of each other and I thought the prick was staying in London until I woke up this morning to find him at the breakfast table. Apparently he's moving here permanently."

I nodded in understanding "so this is what's bringing on the sudden need for alcohol."

"Amongst other things yes"

"Well he seems nice enough not to mention quite cute" I smiled slyly.

Sebastian frowned in response "please I'm going to be ill."

"You will if you keep drinking that stuff. So why don't you two get along?"

He tilted his head back in though before smiling somewhat bemused "what was it you said to me once about your relationship with Annette? You don't associate with losers, and Annette is a loser. Well I don't associate with dickheads and my brother is most definitely a dickhead. But then you seem to have an affinity for them so go right ahead..."

I yanked the flask from his hand angrily "be nice or I'm leaving."

"Sorry" he studied me a moment before asking "why are you taking to me anyway? Aren't you mad at me?"

"Yes actually I am"

Sebastian leaned closer to me and asked "have you found anyone else to help you with your plan yet?"

At the mention of my plot against Annette I scowled "none of your business."

"I take that as a no"

I didn't answer him, instead I looked straight ahead at the fireplace in front of us and pretended he wasn't there. "Oh come on Kathryn don't be mad."

"Why did you even come to this party if all you were going to do was hide and get wasted?" I demanded turning to him suddenly.

Sighing he leaned in closer "why do you think? I came to see you."

We stared at each other for one intense moment before Sebastian's hand came up and cupped my check and he pulled me towards him. Maybe it was the alcohol running through my system or maybe I was feeling especially horny or maybe I just wanted him because as he pulled me into a kiss I didn't refuse in the slightest. We kissed once, tentatively barely brushing each others lips before we pulled away. We let our mouths linger close to each other as we stared into one anothers eyes daring each other to make another move.

Truth be told I couldn't remember who broke first but the next thing I knew Sebastian's mouth was all over mine as my hands slid around his neck pulling him closer. When his tongue thrusted into my mouth I could taste the alcohol on his breath but it only turned me on more. It was so intense and sudden that it nearly knocked the wind out of me. It was quite amazing.

When he finally broke apart I let my hands stay wrapped around his neck. Slowly he smiled as he told me "I'm in."

"Excuse me?"

"Your plan for Annette. Consider it done."

I smiled in response which he returned as he slowly leaned back in his seat . It looked like I finally had my partner in crime.
