“I wish I didn’t need to be here…but…” Sebastian said to his friend in a monotone voice.
“Don’t be like that! You’re going to kill the mood,” Josh said as he came to clap Sebastian on the back.
“Yeah…whatever you say…” Sebastian replied coldly, shrugging off Josh’s arm from around his shoulders.
I just stood behind Sebastian as the two men spoke to each other, unsure what I should be doing in this situation. Do I introduce myself?
“Oh…and who would this stunning woman be?” Josh said as his eyes fell on me.
Now that he was up close, I had to say that Josh was way more than decent looking. He was at least worthy of the words ‘super handsome’. Josh had very sharp and manly features, dark brown hair and matching eyes and a beard. His piercing only added to his alluring bad boy look and the thin white shirt he had on did nothing to hide his rip tan muscles that were underneath.
He wasn’t as tall as Sebastian, but he was still very tall and his smile was stunning as well.
I guess just like how beautiful girls like to stick together, good looking guys probably did the same?
“This is Grace,” Sebastian introduced me curtly.
“I didn’t know that you had a girlfriend,” Josh said, his eyes never leaving my face. His intense gaze was starting to make me blush.
“She’s not my girlfriend but she’s going to be acting as your girlfriend for the duration of this party,” Sebastian stated factually.
“Oh…so she’s the one that you were telling me about. I honestly didn’t think that she would be such a beauty,” Josh said as he smiled at me.
“Thank you…nice to meet you,” I said a little shyly.
“The pleasure is all mine, trust me,” Josh said, his smile reaching his eyes.
Josh seemed like a very nice and easy-going person. His way of speaking was kind, refined and well-mannered, although he could sound a little on the flirty side. However, I didn’t mind that.
“So, what do we do now?” Sebastian asked, impatiently.
“Janine should be here soon…unfortunately,” Josh said as he shook his head in dismay.
“Well, good luck to you both,” Sebastian said, clearly suggesting that his role was over and that whatever happened next wasn’t his problem.
“Have a seat, Grace,” Josh said as he gestured for me to sit on the long red velvet sofa.
Sebastian sat down on a sofa on the opposite side without waiting for an invitation. I could tell that he felt totally at home in this place.
“Thank you…” I whispered politely as I approached the sofa and slowly sat down.
I wondered what I had to do exactly when Janine arrived. I still felt a little awkward around Josh and the fact that Sebastian is just sitting there wasn’t helping at all.
“Don’t worry. I’ll do all the talking and you just need to follow along, that’s all,” Josh said to me as if he could read the worry in my mind.
Josh came and sat down next to me. I wasn’t sure if I was overthinking it, but it seemed like he was sitting quite close to me…too close. I could feel the heat of his body as his body brushed against mine when he moved. I felt the head of his thigh next to mine and that just made me more nervous about this situation.
I glanced over at Sebastian and saw that he was totally spaced out without a care in the world. That bastard clearly isn’t going to offer me any help at all. As far as I’m concerned, he might as well not be here at all. I felt so angry, knowing that I’m stuck in this bizarre situation because of him and he’s not doing anything to take responsibility.
“Umm…ok…” I mumbled in response.
Josh flashed me a reassuring smile and asked if I wanted something to drink. I knew that I wasn’t great at holding my alcohol, so I asked for some juice instead. I could definitely use the sugar right now. A waiter appeared in no time at all to serve my order. I sipped at the juice as I pondered what best to do in this situation.
Without another option, I decided to let Josh take the lead and just do whatever seemed to make sense at the time.
“So, how do you know Sebastian?” Josh asked as he tried to make light conversation with me.
Unknowingly, he’s causing both Sebastian and me much discomfort. I glanced over at Sebastian, begging him to answer the question. I bet Sebastian had decided not to tell anyone about our strange living arrangement and relationship. I mean, even I decided not to tell anyone about our bizarre situation.
“She’s just a girl that I know…” Sebastian answered vaguely.
“Oh yeah?” Josh replied, clearly dissatisfied with Sebastian’s vague answer.
Thankfully, Josh didn’t push the topic any further and switched to asking me random questions about myself instead such as what I was up to lately. He showed genuine interest when I told him that I’m studying art. Overall, Josh and I seemed to get along just fine, and he was a very sociable person.
“Do you have a good memory by any chance?” Josh asked out of nowhere.
“I guess my memory is decent…” I replied, a little surprise at his seemingly random question.
“Good…read and remember this,” Josh said as he took out a small piece of paper from his shirt pocket and handed it over to me.
I looked down at the paper in my hand and realized that it was a mini factsheet about Josh. Details such as his birthday, favorite food, favorite color was among the various things listed there.
“I see…” I muttered.
I guess I must learn this in case I’m asked. I found this quite amusing and began chuckling a little to myself.
“I see why you think this is funny,” Josh said.
“Do you really think that she may ask these questions?” I asked.
“You never know…I hope these questions are the only thing she asks…” Josh muttered under his breath as if he was talking to himself.
