Chapter 8: Kiss and Makeup

"Kathryn..." Sebastian muttered too surprised and dumb founded to say much else.

For her part Kathryn said nothing because she couldn't really. A good part of her desperately wanted to scream at him for his betrayal but she wouldn't allow herself to do it. Especially with her mother right there obviously eating up the hurt she was causing her only child.

Instead of saying anything she simply marched down the hall with her fists clenched. When she disappeared it only took Sebastian a moment to get his bearings together. Pushing Tiffani off of him carelessly he got to his feet and stumbled after her. "Kathryn!" He called out "Kath-ryn wait!"

She went on ignoring his pleas until he managed to catch up to her. Grabbing her arm Sebastian forced her to face him "listen, listen to me ok. It wasn't what you thi-"

"Don't presume to know what I'm thinking right now" she hissed pulling her arm out of his grasp. Taking a step towards him, her dark eyes locked on his, Kathryn continued "you knew exactly how to get to me I'll give you that."

"What?" He asked somewhat dumbfounded. The alcohol had made him a little slow on the uptake. "You think I did this on purpose?"

Shaking her head she snarled "of course you did. You're were pissed and jealous that I didn't want you so you went after her but guess what your little plan didn't work. You want her you can have her just leave me out of it."

As she started to leave again Sebastian attempted to grab her but instead he stumbled and fell to the ground beside her. Kathryn turned and glared down at him "what are you..."

"Kathryn I-"

"Jesus Christ you're drunk!"

Rolling his head back he replied "sort of."

"Well you better clean yourself up before you go back to her. My mother doesn't like drunks" she told him disdainfully.

"No I don't want her." Looking up at her with as much vulnerability as he had ever shown her he said "I want you Kathryn."

For just a moment he thought she might give in and maybe her ice queen armor would melt somewhat but instead she just replied coldly "well that's too bad because you'll never have me. You fucked up Sebastian, you're fucked up and I won't have anything to do with a fuck up."

After sending him one last crushing glare she turned on her heels and walked back down the hallway. Still slumped over on the floor Sebastian leaned against the staircase as he listened to the click of her heels disappear. With a sigh he said "you're right about that baby."

* * * * * *

"Good morning ladies" Sebastian greeted the table cheerfully even though he was feeling anything but. His head was throbbing from all the alcohol he had consumed the previous night and as soon as he walked into the room Kathryn shot him a look that could break glass. He had hoped maybe she had mellowed out from last night but apparently not.

Still Sebastian smiled at everyone around the table and sat down across from her. Their eyes locked for a brief moment before Kathryn put her cloth napkin on the table and rose from her seat to get some more coffee. His eyes still rested on her back he asked no one in particular "so what is everyone doing today?"

"Well Tiffani and I are going into the city to shop since your father has some contracts he needs to sign back at the office" Jane replied.

Sebastian caught a swift glance Tiffani sent his way and he quickly looked away and over at Bonnie who immediately reddened. "I'm going riding" she said quickly as if she was afraid he would ask her to do something.

"Well where a sweater dear it's getting chilly" her mother warned as she got to her feet. "Tiffani and I have to get ready."

As the two of them left Bonnie nervously glanced between Sebastian and Kathryn who still had her back turned from them. Quickly she got out of her seat wrapping her robe tighter around herself. "Umm I have to get ready too. Bye Kathryn."

"What no good-bye for me?" Sebastian called out to her.

She looked back at him and shot him a dirty look before leaving. When he finally had Kathryn alone he let out a long sigh and rose up from his seat. With a slow prowl he approached her from behind "and what are you up to today?"

Sipping her coffee she didn't turn around only grumbled "none of your business."

Still remaining as cool as ever Sebastian leaned against the breakfast table beside her. Looking down at her stone cold face he asked almost bored "so you're still pissed."

"I always said you were a smart boy Sebastian" she shot back and just for a moment he thought he might be able to talk her out of her latest mood.

"I'm also very talented" he cooed as his hand came out and caressed her face.

Kathryn looked up at him her face still hard. She grabbed his hand and pulled it away from her face "don't."

"Don't what?"

Taking a step towards him she replied simply "this is over with. This little game or whatever you want to call it..it's done with."

Still smiling he told her "yeah I think I've heard this before."

"Well this time it's for real"

As she turned away from him Sebastian's face lost that cocky expression. For a brief second he felt panicked as he grabbed her arm and made her face him "why?"

For the first time that morning Kathryn smiled. Cold and ruthless she explained "because you've outgrown your usefulness."

"Bullshit" he spat angrily "you're just pissed about what you walked in on last night."

Pulling out of his grasp her smile fell "you're right this does have to do with that. Last night I was sitting in bed thinking about how to pay you back when it suddenly occurred to me...I don't care enough about you to seek revenge."

Sebastian recoiled slightly from her but he tried to keep his composure "you really expect me to believe that?"

"It's the truth"

"I don't believe you"

With a confident smirk she replied "then maybe you're not as bright as I thought you were."

Sebastian gripped the back on the table as he watched her stroll right out of there with his balls firmly in her pocket. He was practically shaking but he couldn't be sure if it's out of anger or hurt feelings. In any event he waited until he heard her walk down the hall before he gripped the table and lifted it up suddenly so everything slid off of it with a loud crash. "God damn bitch!" He yells as he tears around the room throwing random things out of his way.

In that moment he hated her. Not for being nasty and cold but for making him feel something towards her. He never felt anything towards any girl before but now here he was going out of his mind just because she was mean to him. It was fucking pathetic.

Sebastian tossed a chair out of his way just as Bonnie came back into the room. She looked around the now trashed room with wide timid eyes "I-I forgot my...what happened?"

"Nothing" he sneered at her before slumping back in one of the chairs.

"Ok I'm just getting my phone" she grabbed it from the table then turned to leave. However something stopped her, curiosity perhaps, so she looked back at him "is everything all right?"

"Not exactly" he muttered.

Walking over to him Bonnie replied "look Sebastian I know I've given you sort of a hard time but if something's wrong you could tell me about it."

He didn't look up at her he only mused "you know what the worst thing in the world is? To want something you know you will NEVER have."

She tilted her head confused "what is it you want?"

Sebastian looked up as if noticing her for the first time. Smiling almost slightly he told her "nothing." When Bonnie only smiled in response he decided there was only one thing that could help take his mind off of Kathryn, a good fuck. Leaning across the table Sebastian gave Bonnie his most charming smile "you know you are very beautiful. Any one ever tell you, you could be a model?"

* * * * * *

"So what are your plans for today Kathryn?" Tiffani inquired as she strolled about her daughters room.

Kathryn, who had been studying her reflection looked up at her mother is disdain "nothing."

Tiffani stopped fluttering about and looked over at her. "Are you still upset about last night?"

Although she very much was Kathryn wasn't about to give her the satisfaction of knowing it got to her. "No I haven't really thought about it. But for future reference, should I be expecting Sebastian as a regular guest?"

"Don't be ridiculous dear" she sighed. "Sebastian is a very attractive boy but I have no interest in him. I just thought it was important that you see him for what he really is."

Kathryn set down her lipstick with a hard thud. "You thought it was important for me to see who he really was" she repeated incredulously.

"Yes I did"

As she stared over at her mother she began to realize the truth. The stupid bitch had set the whole thing up. In the back of her mind somewhere Kathryn had suspected as much but didn't want to believe it was true. She supposed it was so much easier to blame it all on Sebastian but this time she fucked up. Her mother had set her up and she fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Shaking her head she hissed "well done mother."

Getting to her feet Tiffani gave her a smug look and replied "I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Get out" Kathryn ordered.

When her mother walked out she snapped her eye brow brush in two and tossed it disdainfully on the table. "Dammit" she muttered and she contemplated what to do. After she made a big show of telling Sebastian they were done with she really didn't want to go crawling after him but then again she didn't want her mother to win.

With a composed sigh Kathryn reached for the phone and dialed Sebastian's room. After about five rings a giggly female voice answered that she instantly recognized as Bonnies. That figures she thought to herself. In her sweetest voice she greeted her "hello Bonnie. Is Sebastian there? It's Kathryn"

There was a long pause on the line before she came back on "umm hi Kathryn. He's right here."

Kathryn heard what was obviously the rumbling of covers before Sebastian's gruff voice asked "what?"

"I'll give you this much you move fast"

"What do you want Kathryn?"

Losing the bitch act for a moment she admitted "I need to see you."

"I'm in the middle of something."

"Well you can put the virgin princess on hold for a little while. It's important."

With a sigh he replied "it always is but unfortunately I'm-"

"Please" Kathryn asked wincing at the pleading sound of her voice.

There was another long pause before Sebastian said "ok, fine I'll meet you in your room in a few minutes. This better be worth it."

* * * * * *

"Where are you going?" Bonnie asked as she covered her naked body with the cashmere blanket.

Sebastian pulled on his pants and glanced over at her with little interest "I have to go take care of something."

"With Kathryn?"

"Yes" he replied annoyed with her questioning.

"Are you and Kathryn..."

He turned back to her knowing what she was asking but he wanted to hear her say it "are we what?"

Bonnie blushed "nothing. Hurry back"

Rolling his eyes Sebastian left the room happy to have an excuse to leave her. Although he had finally managed to conquer Bonnie it wasn't as fulfilling as normal. The entire time his mind was on Kathryn which only managed to fuel his rage even more. Here he was with a prime piece of ass like Bonnie and all he could think about was that frosty bitch.

When Kathryn called a part of him wanted to just tell her to go fuck herself but then she had said please. That was all it took for him to go to her and he hated it. Yet he went anyway.

He knocked on her door and was greeted by "come in."

Sebastian opened the heavy door and found Kathryn standing by the window dressed in only a long, silk, midnight blue kimono. Her dark hair was swept up and the light was hitting her in such a way that she looked absolutely breathtaking. Turning around she smiled and offered a surprisingly casual "hey."

"What was so important that you needed to see me right now?"

Kathryn walked over and circled him before stopping to light up a cigarette. "I can smell her on you" she remarked.

"Make it quick she's still waiting" he replied nastily.

"I suppose a congratulations is in order. You finally nailed her?"

Sitting back in the plush seat behind him he answered smugly "yes I did. Now are you going to tell me the real reason I'm here?"

Taking drag off of her cigarette Kathryn sighed "I know what my mother did."

Sebastian sat up in his set suddenly interested "oh?"

"She was setting me up and I walked right into it. It was she who came on to you am I right?"

He nodded "it was. I believe I tried to explain that last night but you didn't want to listen."

"You could have pushed her away."

"I did but I was too out of it to think straight. Nothing would have happened anyway."

"In any event it's over with. Now we can go back to how things were-"

Sebastian laughed shortly "I don't think so. I outlived my usefulness, remember? I mean nothing to you."

Kathryn rolled her eyes annoyed he was going to drag this out. Then again why should she expect anything less, this was Sebastian after all. In her most patient voice she explained "I was angry ok? Can we just forget about it."

"No, you see I'm sick of being treated as your little toy that you wheel out whenever you're in need of something. I'm done with it so unless you give me a reason-"

"I'm sorry ok" she interrupted exasperated.

"Hmm not good enough" he told her.

She got the feeling he was baiting her but a part of her was really afraid he would break things off with her for good. "Look as much as it pains me to admit it...you're the only real friend I have. Blaine is good for some things but you're the only one who..."

"Puts up with your bullshit?"

"You're the only one I can count on."

Although he would die before admitting it Sebastian was actually touched by the sentiment. He would of course forget about there fight and what she said to him but he wanted to see what he could get out of it first. "I'm not sure I'm convinced you're sincere. Prove it to me."

Kathryn knew he forgave her and now he was just being an asshole. She'd make him pay for that in her own special way. Bringing her hand to the back of her head Kathryn pulled the clip from her hair which sent her dark tresses cascading down to her shoulders. Then slowly she pulled her kimono off and let it fall to the ground leaving her completely naked before him.

Sebastian licked his bottom lip as he looked her over in all her glory. It occurred to him then he had never seen Kathryn fully nude. She was nothing short of a vision and he realized then he really would do anything to have her. Tilting her head she smiled coyly at him "I'm going to take a shower. Feel free to join me." She started for the bathroom and called over her shoulder "I might need you to help clean all those hard to reach places."

Before she disappeared inside Sebastian was on his feet following after her. Kathryn stepped inside and turned the shower on while he quickly took off his now rumbled clothes. Turning around she smiled at him as she stepped back into the shower and motioned him to follow. Stepping inside Sebastian immediately went to kiss her but she pulled away playfully. In no mood for games he quickly grabbed her from around the waist and pulled her into a kiss.

Pushing her back against the tile wall and under the shower head Kathryn moaned when she felt Sebastian's body press into her. It felt so good and so right that she was tempted to let him have his way with her but she was determined to keep control. Pulling away from him she handed him the soap and ordered "get to work."

Sebastian wasted little time lathering her up, rubbing his hands over every inch of her. When his hands squeezed her breasts she arched her back against the wall and groaned. "Are you actually going to let this happen this time?"

She asked innocently "let what happen?"

"You and me" he leaned in and whispered "fucking."

"Maybe...but not today" she laughed at his sour expression.

"You're such a tease" Sebastian groaned.

Kathryn only smiled as she grabbed him by the back on the hair and pulled him into another rough kiss. The soap fell from his hands as he began caressing her body and kissing her neck. Kathryn bit his shoulder when she felt his long fingers start to pry open her slit. Grasping him by the shoulders she started to push him down and Sebastian quickly go the hint.

Getting down on his knees he caressed her inner thigh before lifting her left leg over his shoulder and sliding between her legs. When she at last felt his mouth on her Kathryn let out a low moan. Taking that as a good sign Sebastian pushed his tongue all the way into her then flicked it against her swollen clit. Kathryn yelped and begged for more "god damn Sebastian, yessss!"

He gripped her ass as he continued to eat her out and make her yell out all sorts of curse words. Kathryn was just starting to slip into a euphoric state of bliss when through her half closed eye lids she noticed the bath room door open. Bonnie stepped into the room and gawked at the sight before her. When her pretty blue eyes fell on Sebastian eating her out Kathryn couldn't help but give her a smug, evil grin that sent poor Bonnie running from the room.

However she soon forgot all about the girl when Sebastian started sucking on her clit causing her to nearly pass out from the intense pleasure of it all. The only reason she didn't was because Kathryn knew if she passed out Sebastian would probably use the opportunity to fuck her. When they did fuck, which after this she decided needed to happen soon, she planned on being fully awake for it.

Finally Kathryn came practically slumping back against tile wall in the process. She used the opportunity to repay the favor by sucking Sebastian off. After they were both somewhat satisfied Kathryn got out of the shower and Sebastian followed grumbling the whole time. "Quit your bitching. You know how many guys would kill to be in your position?"

Slipping his shirt on he volleyed back "you know how many girls would kill to be in yours?"

"Touché" she laughed.

As he finished getting dressed Sebastian noticed an invitation sitting out on her desk. It was inviting Kathryn and a guest to Janessa Barretts annual yachting party tomorrow afternoon. Walking over to Kathryn who was lounging on the bed filing her nails he said "I didn't know you were friends with Janessa."

Kathryn scoffed "hardly. Point of fact I hate the bitch. She's a white trash slut disguised in designer clothes who's mission in life seems to be copying everything I do."

Surpressing a smile he asked "this hatred you have for her wouldn't happen to be because she once dated Court would it?"

"No rest assured I hated Janessa Barrett long before Court came into the picture."

"Then why would she invite you to her party?"

Kathryn shrugged "because everybody loves me and if she didn't invite me she would look petty and vindictive which she is."

"I see" he said sitting beside her "well I didn't get invited so you can take me."

She smiled "sorry I'm already going with Court. You'll just have to find some other way to amuse yourself tomorrow."

"We'll see about that."

Kathryn sighed "anyway you have another matter to attend to."

"Oh?"

"Yes while we were in the shower and you were...assisting me, we had an audience."

"Who?"

"Bonnie"

Sebastian rolled his eyes not needing to know anything more "let me guess, you expect me to go handle her so to speak?"

"Well I certainly can't" sliding across the bed to him she whispered in his ear "just make her realize that she can't tell anyone what she saw between us."

"Why should I?"

Smiling Kathryn climbed onto his lap and kissed him. As they broke away she whispered "do you even need to ask?"

* * * * * *

Following another make out session with Kathryn, which left him feeling a slight case of blue balls, Sebastian headed to Bonnies room. He didn't bother to knock on her door and instead walked right in to find her sitting in a ball on her bed. Judging by her tear stained face Sebastian realized she had been crying, most likely over him. However instead of feeling moved he felt annoyed. "We need to talk" he told her coldly.

Looking up at him she spat back "get out! I have nothing to say to you."

"Well that's good because I plan on doing all the talking."

She grabbed a stuffed animal from her bed and chucked it at him "leave now or else I'll..."

"You'll what? Tell your mommy on me?" Laughing he replied "go right ahead I'm sure she'll love to here all about how you spent the afternoon ridding...me."

Holding her head up she said "I'll tell her about you and Kathryn. I'll tell everybody what I saw."

Stepping towards the bed he told her "you won't say a word to anyone because you didn't see anything."

"Yes I did!"

Sebastian rolled his eyes "you don't seem to get what I'm saying fuck wit. You tell anyone about what you supposedly saw and I'll tell everyone what a supreme slut you are and I have the pictures to prove it."

Although he had no such pictures Sebastian knew just the threat was enough to keep Bonnie in line. Sure enough with a quivering lip and a sigh of defeat she muttered "fine I won't say anything just get out."

He turned to leave when something on her desk caught his eye. It was an invitation to Janessa's yacht party. Suddenly Sebastian got a devious idea. Looking back at Bonnie he smiled "there's just one more thing. I won't show anyone those pictures if you do something for me."

"What?"

Holding up the invite he told her "we're going to a party and you're going to be my date."
