Blood is thicker than water

Chapter 31

Adelina POV:

Just be back soon. All the boys are going to be home.

Yeah, no, I wasn't doing that.

I bounce lightly on my heals trying to stay warm as the night's cold nips at my skin.  The sereneness of the creak is easily unmatched when the sun's slipped over the horizon. 

As nicotine fills my lungs and the smoke slips from my lips, the low rumble of a car fills my ears. Knowing it's Sebastian, I don't bother turning around. Opting rather to continue my observation of the light flow of water, I take note of the car door shutting and footsteps making their way towards me. Light butterflies fill my stomach in anticipation. 

I feel his hands on my hips before anything. It startles me, the events from earlier not having completely left my mind. I was left on edge throughout the rest of the day. 

I feel light breathing on my neck and him press against my back and my heart rate picks up slightly. I tense a considerable amount, the actions being so similar to Michaels.

"My girl looks amazing, doesn't she?" he grumbles into my ear. It's only when he speaks that the tension melts from my bones, my heart settles into its normal pace and an easy smile begins to rest on my lips.

I tilt my head back to lay on his chest and look up at him to immediately find his gaze already on me. I laugh softly and shake my head, stepping out of his arms to look at him properly. 

And Lord does he look good.

He's wearing his classic beanie which does not surprise me in the slightest, but what catches my eye is the different chains around his neck. Normally, a single chain adorns his neck but today he's layered on a few different ones taking his style up a notch. His choice of clothing, although casual, only accentuate his good looks. 

The black and silver rings on his fingers only add to his attractiveness. His black shirt and beige jeans not fitted to him but somehow still showcasing his lean structure.

My gaze then moves to his face. His plump lips looks especially enticing but I don't let my eyes linger there for too long, moving rather to look at the dark eyes I've spent so much time admiring. 

I watch as his eyes rake over me shamelessly like I had done him only moments before. I'm wearing nothing too fancy, a simple black dress with matching heals and minimalistic makeup as I didn't feel up to doing anything else. 

His gaze travels to my face once he completes the inspection of my body.  A full grins tugs at his lips as he takes a small step towards me, grabbing my waist as he looks down at me, "Your girl?" I laugh.

A small chuckle escapes him, "Yup," he murmurs leaning down "mine." and instantly we lock lips. 

It's slow and sweet and he has me smiling into the kiss quickly enough. I run my hands over the material of his shirt as I pull away and press the side of my head against his chest, "Then you're mine." my tone leaves no room for discussion. 

"Of course, my pretty girl" he laughs lightly.

Sebastian's hand comfortably rests on my upper thigh throughout the entirety of the car trip. It doesn't take long to get to the party and it seems both of us are eager to jump out and let the fun begin.

Once the vehicule is put into park, I quickly make a move to exit while Sebastian stops me by tightening his grip on my thigh. I look up, confused by his actions "Yes?" I call out into the silence he created. The light was dim and darkness has fully consumed the sky. He dark eyes burned holes into mine, staring at me in a beautiful intensity, "You're going to meet my friends in there," he tells me "don't go too hard on them. Some are a little rough around the edges, you know?"
