Summary- Kathryn sees Sebastian again after 5 months and finds things haven't changed.
~5 Months Later~
Kathryn's POV
During the wedding reception, I watched in disgust as they cuddled together at the table next to mine. Court, much to my dismay, was trying to hold an intelligent conversation with me. But I wasn't interested in anything he had to say. I looked at Annette's left hand and narrowed my eyes when I spotted the diamond ring.
It was supposed to be mine. But looking down at my own ring, I realized how bad things had turned out. Court had proposed to me eight months into our relationship, and reluctantly I accepted. I looked across the room at Aaliyah, who only stared back at me. She gave me a sly grin and preceded to finish the conversation she was having with Edward Valmont and Cecile Caldwell. Edward was looking across the room at Annette and was staring intently as Cecile was talking to both he and Aaliyah.
My plan with Aaliyah had been running smoothly, and everything was in order. It had taken almost five months, but the time to strike was approaching and truthfully, I was ready to watch my mother suffer. Aaliyah and I had become the best of friends and did almost everything together. The only problem with our alliance was what was going to happen after we had gotten revenge. We both promised each other that we would let Sebastian make the choice on who he wanted to be with, but something told me that it sounded too good to be true.
I watched my mother as she chatted with her society friends as they congratulated her on how wonderful the wedding was. Yes, it was my mother's wedding to Edward Valmont. I only attended because she claimed people would wonder why I wasn't there and talk. But I knew she just wanted me to see Annette and Sebastian together so that she could gloat. During wedding rehearsals, she would give me an all-knowing smile, and then comment on how happy Sebastian was with Annette.
Sebastian had indeed fallen in love with her and had asked her to marry him a few weeks ago after he learned of my engagement. I really hadn't talked to him since the day he denounced what he felt for me, and chose her over me.
I still remember that day and everything that was said. I lost two things that day, my mother and the one I had loved. After a while, I started to accept the fact that my mother didn't care about me at all. Maybe she was never there for me, but I still believed that somewhere in her heart she cared for me. Again, I was wrong. Wrong about Sebastian, and wrong about Annette.
I was brought back to reality when Court tapped me on the shoulder. I looked at him to see a look of concern on his handsome face. Yes, I did feel something for him. He was handsome and athletic, but he wasn't Sebastian. If I had to, I guess I could marry him. But I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I just let Sebastian walk out of my life.
"Are you alright? You look a little dazed." He said rubbing my back gently.
I finally was able to put a smile on my face and nodded my head. "I'm fine, I'm just thinking."
"Do you want to dance?" I looked around and realized I needed something to take my mind off the problems I had.
"Sure." I stood up to smooth my short, tight white Versace dress of any wrinkles and proceeded with Court. As we walked to the floor, I noticed Sebastian looking up at me with a hurt look on his face. But as soon as it was there, it disappeared, and he smiled back at Annette. She then turned around and looked at me with a venomous glare.
**
After the dance was over, I looked across the room to see Aaliyah staring at me. She stood up from her table and walked towards the bathroom. I excused myself from Court and headed to the ladies' room. I opened the door to find it empty except for Aaliyah leaning against the counter with a smile on her pretty face.
I must admit that in some ways I did envy her. She was able to make her relationship with Sebastian mean more than just sex to the both of them. He loved her, maybe more than he loved me, but Annette was the one with his heart now and his ring. Standing maybe an inch taller than me in her stilettos, she wore a tight tan dress that stopped an inch short of her knees. As I compared what we wore, I began to realize exactly how alike we were. She wore the exact same outfit as me, but it was a different color. We basically had the same style, and that's why she's the only one I would shop with.
She smiled at me as she got up to double check if we were indeed alone. After she shut the last stall door, she turned back to me and giggled.
"Did you see the way Edward was staring at Annette? It was the funniest thing I have ever seen. He's standing in the middle of his own fucking wedding staring at Annette's tits! You and I both know that marriage isn't going to last but a minute." Aaliyah said chuckling softly.
"That's why we have to act as soon as possible and make sure this works. And if it does, we won't even have to lift a finger, because they'll be responsible for their own demises." I said leaning against a stall. I smiled to myself and looked back up at her to see a worried look across her face.
"What's wrong Aaliyah?" I said standing up.
"What if they find out we're behind all of this? No one can find out about what your mother has on me." She said shaking her sadly.
"You never told me what she blackmailed you with. What did she have on you?" I asked looking at her, while watching her expressions.
"Well part of it was I was pregnant, and I wasn't sure if it was Sebastian's baby or Courts'. He didn't know I slept with Court right before we left for London, and if he found out he would never trust me again. I knew that he didn't want to be a father anytime soon because he told me. So, he freaked out when I told him that I was pregnant, and I left and got an abortion. After that, Annette found me, and I left Sebastian for good. The other part, I'll tell you tomorrow at lunch. I don't feel like talking about it anymore." She took a deep sigh and started for the door. "I have to go back out there before Cecile comes looking for me."
"Yeah, me too. I'm not going to stay too long, I have a few people to chat with then I'm going to go home. So I'll see you tomorrow at noon." I said walking towards her.
As we walked towards the door together, it opened and in walked Annette. I glared at her as she gave us a malicious smile.
"Well, if it isn't Aaliyah Valmont. I haven't seen you in so long. I thought you and Merteuil were enemies? Have you two kissed and made up? After all, you both are Sebastian's leftovers." I rolled my eyes and glared over at Aaliyah.
"Actually I don't talk to her. She was doing her make-up when I walked in the bathroom, if it's any of your business. And why don't you go gloat somewhere else. I'm tired of you rubbing this Sebastian thing in my face. I told you I'm done with him and I'm moving on." Annette stood her ground and looked over at Aaliyah.
"Well, since you aren't saying anything interesting, you can leave. Kathryn and I have so much to talk about." She said walking out of the way so she could leave.
Aaliyah gave her a cold stare before flashing me a look and walked out the door. Annette scoffed and leaned against the door.
"I've seen how you've been looking at my fiancé, and I don't like it. Admit it Kathryn, you still want him."
"No I don't, and come to think of it, why are you even with him? You've done your job, I haven't talked to Sebastian since and plus, I'm engaged." I said looking in the mirror. I finger combed my hair as she looked at me in contempt.
"I love Sebastian, and I am going to marry him, whether you like it or not. He loves me and not you. Hate to break it to you angel, but you blew it. And now you're paying for it. He doesn't want to see you anymore. So kindly fuck off and lead your own life."
She stood next to me and stared me in the eye. "Don't even try to do anything, because I'll be watching every move you make from now on." She turned and walked towards the door before turning around to give me a dangerous grin. "Love talking to you Kat, bye." And then she was gone.
"Likewise Annette." I said to myself before turning to the mirror and checking my makeup.
**
The ride home with Court was a silent one. I was still caught up in my thoughts, and he was on the other side of the limo on his cell. We still lived apart, and that's the way I liked it. He came over my penthouse occasionally, but mostly I was always over his.
We stopped in front of my home, and I gave him a peck on the cheek before moving for the door. He grabbed my arm and pulled me down on his lap. He gave me a long kiss before whispering in my ear "I love you Kathryn".
I smiled at him before choking out a half hearted "You too."
I saw a disappointed look flash across his face. I hadn't gotten up the courage to tell him I loved him yet, because I don't. And I was far too confused about how I felt about Sebastian to get sentimental with him.
He smiled back at me and said "I'll call you in the morning." Before continuing to talk on the phone.
I nodded, got out the car and shut the door. And as the limo drove away, I took in a deep breath and walked past the doorman. Now for a night of peace and quiet.
**
As I walked into the study at my penthouse, I noticed that my bedroom door was open and the lamp was on. As I walked in to check it out, I was surprised to see a figure standing by the large window looking out. So much for peace and quiet.
"Sebastian?" I asked walking closer.
He turned around and just asked simply. "Why'd you do it Kathryn? Did you accept just to get back at me?"
I was more angry at him for accusing me of trying to get back at him, than breaking into my penthouse. "It was my decision, not yours. I think you made enough decisions for the both of us so far." I walked away from him and onto the balcony for some fresh air.
He followed me and stood next to me. "I'm sorry, but I decided that we needed a break. You were always talking about how bad Annette was because you were jealous." I looked at him in fury.
"You still don't understand. And you never will. I'm happy with Court and for once I'm making a choice in my life that has nothing to do with you. It's not always about you, remember? You were the one who didn't talk to me for five months! And the first time you talk to me after all this time, you accuse me of going through all of this to get back at you for ending our relationship five fucking months ago! I'm sorry but I'm through with all of your mind games Sebastian!"
Sebastian touched my cheek and I backed away from him. I could see his eyes getting watery, but I didn't care. He hurt me, and he had to learn that he couldn't just take something back now, that he did so long ago.
"I didn't mean to say those things. I was mad. But I still love you. I've never lied to you before, why would I lie now?" I looked at him incredulously.
"Really? How come you never told me about you being engaged to Aaliyah? Or telling me that you just liked Annette. I'm not a fool Sebastian, I know that you loved her when you were still with me, and you never told me. I'm the one who never lied. Not you! And all those times I just wanted it to be you and me and not her. You said that you didn't want to hurt her when you actually were in love with her. You chose her over me. So go be with your fiancée, Sebastian because I don't love you anymore. You don't deserve me. Now get out!" I stated walking back inside leaving him alone on the balcony.
I sat on the bed with my back towards him. After a few minutes, he came back in and sat down next to me. "For what it's worth, I still love you." He said putting his hand on mine.
I looked back up at him with tears in my eyes. He brushed them away, and brought my chin up to look at him. He smiled at me and as if he was deep in thought he said "You've grown more beautiful even after a few months."
"Where's Annette?" I asked in alarm.
"She had to go out of town for the weekend. She left a few hours ago." He caressed my cheek as he spoke.
Coming back to reality, I stood up and pulled my hands away from his.
"I can't do this Sebastian. I'm engaged, and you are too." I said shaking my head. He stood up and pulled me to him.
"Don't think Kathryn. It's just us here and now. They don't have to know." I smiled as he repeated the words I had once said that had begun our short affair.
As I began to think, Sebastian bent down and captured my lips with his own.
But as I touched his cheek with my left hand, he felt the ring on my finger and backed away. He knocked all the things on my nightstand over and looked at me in fury.
I looked at my broken things on the floor and shook my head. I said more to myself than him "Bastard."
"I'm a bastard? You were supposed to be with me! Not Court Reynolds. Everything is so fucked up. And you could care less if I'm with Annette. Why?" He shouted at me.
I walked up to him and smacked him across the face. "Because you left me. You said that it doesn't matter about everyone else; all that matters is you and me. If you weren't so jealous that I'm getting married to someone else, you might have noticed that you broke my favorite antique vase. You chose this fate, not me. The day you pushed me away is the day everything changed. It's all your fault!"
I went to smack him again but he caught my hand. I used the other one, but he grabbed that one as well. I struggled in his arms, and he turned me around so I was pushed back against him. He started to kiss my neck and I fought against him. So he wrapped his arm around me and used the other one to pull my dress up.
As he pushed one finger into me, I moaned against him and started to give up fighting him. He let me go and continued to finger me. He pulled his finger out and unzipped the back of my dress. I didn't even stop to think about what we were doing. I was so distracted by the things we were doing and how much I missed him that I didn't even remember to tell him to put on a condom.
He tossed me on the bed and pulled my panties down. It felt so good to be with him again. I missed his touch and the way he treated me when we were together. He brought me back to reality when he pushed himself into me. I shouted as loud as I could as he stayed still for a minute. And as he started to go faster I would shout "Harder! Faster!"
After several hours, we were both spent and I collapsed on his chest. I sighed in pure bliss, happy that I was with him again. I looked up at Sebastian and he looked back at me smiling as he stroked my hair. He kissed me then whispered in my ear "I love you Kathryn."
And for the first time that night, I said "I love you too."
**
When I woke up in the morning and looked over at Sebastian, I was full of dread. I made a mistake and I knew it. I began to think of my revenge with Aaliyah and how this would destroy everything we had put together. We are so close to the end, and for me to ruin it all would be unfair to her. And if Annette ever found out I slept with Sebastian, she would publish those pictures and I would be laughed out of New York.
I quickly sat up and I felt a hand on my back. I turned around to see Sebastian smiling at me. His expression changed as he saw the look on my face.
"What's wrong?" He said sitting up behind me.
"Nothing." I said smiling. He kissed me and I looked back up at him. "Just friends?" I asked, silently pleading with him to end this now.
He pulled away, and looked at me for a moment before nodding his head. "Just friends."
**
~2 Weeks Later~
My mother and Edward were to arrive in a week and half from their honeymoon, and then our plan would be hatched. As I talked to Aaliyah on the phone, I suddenly didn't feel so good.
"Aaliyah, hold on"
I hauled ass into the bathroom just in time before emptying my breakfast into the toilet. I got up and cleaned myself up before grabbing the phone. The feeling was starting to come back so I needed to get off the phone.
"Aaliyah?" I asked shakily.
"Yeah?"
"I have to go. I don't feel so well." I said deep in thought.
"What's wrong?" She asked, her voice full of worry.
"Nothing. Must be something I ate. I probably won't make it to lunch this afternoon."
"It's okay Kathryn. I hope you feel better." She said.
"Thanks. I'll talk to you later." I hung up the phone quickly, ran into the bathroom and threw my head in the toilet just in time.
**
I sat fidgeting in the doctor's office as I waited for the doctor to come back. I had been throwing up for the past two days, and I decided to go to the doctor's. I thought it was from being anxious for getting revenge on my mother, but I was still scared on what could be wrong with me. They had run what he called them 'normal tests', but I knew different.
The doctor walked back in with a solemn look on his face. I looked back at him so nervous that I was trembling.
"What's wrong with me?" I asked, my eyes wide waiting for an answer.
"Well, Ms. Merteuil, we ran a few tests and well, you're pregnant."

"I'm a bastard? You were supposed to be with me! Not Court Reynolds. Everything is so fucked up. And you could care less if I'm with Annette. Why?" He shouted at me.
I walked up to him and smacked him across the face. "Because you left me. You said that it doesn't matter about everyone else; all that matters is you and me. If you weren't so jealous that I'm getting married to someone else, you might have noticed that you broke my favorite antique vase. You chose this fate, not me.

He brought me back to reality when he pushed himself into me. I shouted as loud as I could as he stayed still for a minute. And as he started to go faster I would shout "Harder! Faster!"
After several hours, we were both spent and I collapsed on his chest. I sighed in pure bliss, happy that I was with him again. I looked up at Sebastian and he looked back at me smiling as he stroked my hair. He kissed me then whispered in my ear "I love you Kathryn."

When I woke up in the morning and looked over at Sebastian, I was full of dread. I made a mistake and I knew it. I began to think of my revenge with Aaliyah and how this would destroy everything we had put together. We are so close to the end, and for me to ruin it all would be unfair to her. And if Annette ever found out I slept with Sebastian, she would publish those pictures and I would be laughed out of New York.
I quickly sat up and I felt a hand on my back. I turned around to see Sebastian smiling at me. His expression changed as he saw the look on my face.
"What's wrong?" He said sitting up behind me.
"Nothing." I said smiling. He kissed me and I looked back up at him. "Just friends?" I asked, silently pleading with him to end this now.
He pulled away, and looked at me for a moment before nodding his head. "Just friends."

~2 Weeks Later~
My mother and Edward were to arrive in a week and half from their honeymoon, and then our plan would be hatched. As I talked to Aaliyah on the phone, I suddenly didn't feel so good.
"Aaliyah, hold on"
I hauled ass into the bathroom just in time before emptying my breakfast into the toilet. I got up and cleaned myself up before grabbing the phone. The feeling was starting to come back so I needed to get off the phone.
"Aaliyah?" I asked shakily.
"Yeah?"
"I have to go. I don't feel so well." I said deep in thought.
"What's wrong?" She asked, her voice full of worry.
"Nothing. Must be something I ate. I probably won't make it to lunch this afternoon."
"It's okay Kathryn. I hope you feel better." She said.
"Thanks. I'll talk to you later." I hung up the phone quickly, ran into the bathroom and threw my head in the toilet just in time.

I sat fidgeting in the doctor's office as I waited for the doctor to come back. I had been throwing up for the past two days, and I decided to go to the doctor's. I thought it was from being anxious for getting revenge on my mother, but I was still scared on what could be wrong with me. They had run what he called them 'normal tests', but I knew different.
The doctor walked back in with a solemn look on his face. I looked back at him so nervous that I was trembling.
"What's wrong with me?" I asked, my eyes wide waiting for an answer.
"Well, Ms. Merteuil, we ran a few tests and well, you're pregnant."
