《The Ecstasy Of Faking It》Chapter 21: I Kissed those lips.
Advertisement
Kim gave us a ride back to the hotel, it was a very silent ride and Kim didn't ask Adrian and I any questions. She dropped us off and we said our goodbyes to her.
Sneaking back inside without communicating with each other was rather tricky, we were like spies without a direction.
So stupid.
But when we got to our floor, we found that the rest of the students threw a god damn party in the boys hotel room. Guessed our teachers did go on that weekend honeymoon after all. I wasn't in the mood to party so I decided to go where I was supposed to be, I didn't even say goodnight to Adrian, I just turned and walked away but I did feel his gaze on my back.
I opened the hotel room with a key card and let myself inside, I turned on the lights and saw that I was the only one in the room, of course I was but that was a good thing, I needed the peace and quiet in order to think about what had happened between Adrian and I.
Or not. Thinking about how I almost fucked my fake boyfriend didn't sound so very healthy. I remembered that Jess hid a bottle of liquor in the closet that morning before we went out to eat.
I rushed to the closet and slid the white doors open and there it was, sitting down there and waiting for me to drink it, I picked it up and kicked off my shoes before plopping down on one of the beds.
My phone vibrated in my jacket pocket, I pulled it out and found a message from Adrian.
It read.
I rolled my eyes at the screen and tossed the phone on the bed.
"Of course I'm not okay, dumbass." I whispered to myself while I opened the bottle and had a shot. "Ugh," I scowled at the burning liquid.
My phone vibrated again,
"Why won't he just leave me alone?" I took another sip.
e sent another text.
Not thinking straight or some shit?
All up in his feelings? What did that mean exactly?
I finally replied but he didn't respond.
Whatever, boys are assholes. Him kissing me was an asshole move even though I really liked it.
I sat the bottle on the fancy nightstand, took off my jacket and laid flat on the bed, letting sleep take over me.
*******
The next morning, I woke up early with a really strong headache, sitting up, I groaned at the pain while holding my head. I stood up and looked around the room. All three girls were now present but seriously passed out on one bed. They looked really cute so I decided to pick up my phone and take a picture of them sleeping.
I looked at the screen and smiled.
I heard an alarm go off on someone else's phone and they all whined in their sleep.
"Stacey, turn it off!" Shouted Gina who was sleeping in the middle of Jess and Stacey.
"I don't know where it is." Stacey responded in a sleepy tone.
"Stacey I swear to God if you don't-"
"Okay okay, I'll turn it off." Stacey forced herself up and started looking for her noisy phone.
"Who the hell sets an alarm during a school trip anyway? We're literally on vacation." Jess pointed out as she got up and ran a hand through her hair frustratedly.

"I'm sorry it's just a habit of mine." She finally found her phone underneath the bed and turned off the alarm.
"You have a really bad habit then." Gina stated with her eyes still closed.
"And you?" Jess turned to me.
"I didn't do anything." I raised my hands in the air and surrendered.
"No, girl, I mean why are you standing there like the statue of liberty?" She chuckled, I sighed restlessly.
"I was just watching you guys." I threw my phone back on my bed.
"Which is dead ass creepy." Gina sat up and leaned against the head board.
"I'm gonna go brush my teeth." I announced and turned on my heel.
"Wait!" I heard Gina's squeaky tone following behind me, I turned back around to look at her with narrowed eyes. Her eyes landed on my chest and she widened her eyes, I also looked down at my chest and saw that my tattoo was showing.
Shit, I crossed my hands over my chest like I was hugging myself.
I usually wore t-shirts in order to hide my tattoo of Adrian's initials and I was really good at hiding it... For a second there.
"Dude, you have a tattoo?" She freaked.
"What?"
"She has a what?"
Jess and Stacey also freaked and literally ran towards me.
Damnit.
I rolled my eyes to the ceiling and dropped my hands, they gasped at the same time as they stared and even touched my tattoo.
I had no idea what was shocking them, so many teenage girls had tattoos, it was nothing to be so shocked about.
"Calm down girls, it's just a tattoo." I said to them.
"Just a tattoo?" Gina asked.
"Emily, it's a tattoo of your boyfriend's name. ON YOUR FUCKING CHEST!" Jess pointed out, emphasizing on the last part. I was held aback.
I didn't know they were smart enough to figure out that AD actually meant Adrian.
"Well, we got them when we were really drunk." I ratted myself out.
"We? Do you mean to say that he has one too?" Stacey asked.
"Yeah, now leave me alone." I turned and went to the bathroom.
I locked myself in the bathroom and I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I released a soft sigh and flipped my hair to look at the tattoo on my chest but I ended up spotting something else, the hickeys on my neck.
Shit.
Goddamn Adrian marked me.
The haunting phase of my previous night leaped to my brain, I remembered his grip on my thigh when I moaned at his undeniably sexy kisses and how he made me weak, how his wanting eyes bore into my soul, how my desire to have him took over my senses, how his heavy breaths made me realize that he was super hard and ready for me and so was I but I just couldn't do it. I had to take control of my feelings and stop the madness.
But I almost did it, I almost slept with my fake boyfriend.
"I'd be regretting it by now anyway." I tried to convince myself.
I quickly brushed my teeth and walked out of the bathroom.
Stacey, Jess and Gina were laughing and talking about something that probably went down at the party.

A knock on the door brought a silence in the room, my heart picked up it's pace for some reason.
"Who is it?" Gina asked as she walked towards the door.
"It's Adrian, is Emily awake?" He asked on the other side of the door.
Shit.
Gina turned to look at me, "It's for you." She swung her thumb over her shoulder.
"No no no, tell him I'm still sleeping!" I whisper shouted before sprinting to my bed and flew the sheets over my head, pretending like I was still asleep.
"Hey AD, so Emily is still asleep, I guess whatever you guys were having last night really had her out cold." I heard Gina tell Adrian.
"Bullshit, I heard you literally talking to her a second ago." I heard him respond.
Damnit.
"Where is she?" He sounded like he was now inside the room. My heart went from racing to banging against my chest. I shut my eyes and hoped that he wouldn't find me.
A second later, I felt the sheets being yanked off my body.
Really? What if I was butt naked?
"Seriously, Emily? You're hiding from me now?" He asked, I kept my eyes closed and didn't move an inch. "I know you're not asleep so just quit the bullshit." He added but I still acted dumb.
"Told you she was out cold." I heard Gina speak.
"Okay then." I felt a weight shift on the bed, "I'll tell your friends about what happened last night and why you're so mad at me." He threatened. I thought he was bluffing so I stayed still.
"Something went down between you two?" Stacey asked curiously.
"Yeah." Adrian responded.
"Did she catch you with another girl?" Jess asked.
"No, see what happened was-"
I quickly got up to cover his mouth from behind him, "Seriously Adrian? What the hell?" I snapped at him, turning to look him in the eye.
His gaze searched my face, his face looked so bright that morning. I held my breath in admiring silence.
Shit, my feelings for him must have grown stronger over night. Literally.
I looked at my friends who were staring at us, they awkwardly looked away and continued with their gossip.
I let go of his mouth and my fingers brushed his soft rosy lips.
'I kissed those lips last night' I thought to myself.
Damnit, I hated feeling like a love struck fool.
I sat next to him and noticed that he was shirtless. Staring at my name on his chest was the first thing I did before I asked..
"Why are you shirtless?"
"I was dared to come here like this." He looked down at his own shirtless body.
"By who?"
"Everyone in the boys room, they all thought I got a tattoo of your name without letting you know which is kinda dumb of them because how do they assume we do it with our clothes on." He smirked at me, my cheeks burned.
"But we don't." I pointed out.
I held my breath as he leaned over to whisper in my ear, "Yeah but they don't know that." His hot breath hit my neck and sent shivers down my spine. "So can we talk about last night?" He suddenly turned serious and our eyes met glancingly.
"What's there to talk about? We kissed, things almost got out of hand but they didn't." I shrugged, he scratched the back of head, looking elsewhere then back at me.
"Okay fuck it, listen Emily I-"
"Don't." I cut him off, "This is already weird so please don't make it any weirder." I said, he stared at me and sighed defeatedly. "Yeah?" I asked, holding his hand in mine.
He looked down at our a hands and a small smile crept on his lips, he entwined our fingers and looked at me through hooded eyes.
"I should just wife you." He whispered with a smile on his face.
My brows snapped together, "What?"
"I should wife you." He repeated but raised his tone which drew my friends attention. "What do you guys think?" He turned to ask them.
"Yeah.
Sure.
Go for it man." They gave him different kinds of positive responses.
Influencing him.
Adrian looked back at me but I was just so lost and the next thing I knew, he was getting on his knees.
Jesus Christ.
"Adrian, what are you doing?" I gritted my teeth.
He took off one of his bracelets and held my hand, "Emily Tamika Bennett, will you be my wife?" He asked and I cringed so bad.
"Awww!" Jess, Gina and Stacey sang at the same time.
Oh my God.
"Seriously Adrian, stop it." I tried to pull his hand but he wasn't moving.
"Not until you give me an answer." He sounded so acerbic.
I looked at my friends who were anxiously waiting for me to say something, then I looked back at Adrian who was just being a very good actor, like always.
I tried to get the bracelet from him but he swayed it away, I rolled my eyes and extended my hand. He put it on my wrist and it surprisedly fit me perfectly.
"Well? is that a yes?" Gina asked curiously.
Only God knew how I was gonna murder him later.
"Yes." I said in a lazy tone and the three of them cheered. Adrian smirked and finally stood up. I was forced to stare at his torso.
'How can someone be this hot?" I asked myself.
"Okay, I'll see you later, babe." He pecked my cheek and started going out the exit, "Oh and you're all invited to the wedding which will be after college graduation." He said to my friends before walking out the door.
I palmed my cheek, where he had planted that kiss. I could still feel his lips on my cheek.
Goddamn it.
"Emily, congratulations, you officially got me fucking jealous." Gina exclaimed playfully, Jess and Stacey laughed at her words.
I stared down at the bracelet and twirled my fingers around it, she had no idea what she was talking about, I was fucked and I was the only one who knew just how fucked I was.
