Chapter 26
Ava’s POV
I gasped in horror and hastily tugged my towel back up, but it was already too late because he had clearly had an eye full of my boobs.
“What the hell are you looking at? Turn away!” I yelled out in embarrassment as I tightened the towel even more.
I took a glance at Mason’s face to see that his mouth was hanging open and his eyes looked as though they were going to pop out of his eye socket.
“You son of a fucking bitch!!” I yelled and for a moment I thought about hitting him across his face but if he decides to do anything to get back at me, then no one would come to my rescue.
“What were you thinking before making me trip! What the fuck are you staring at?!” I yelled again at the top of my lungs and it was almost as though I would shit myself.
Mason burst out laughing, rubbing my embarrassment in my face and I could hear myself screaming internally. Just a few seconds ago, he had gotten an eye full of my bare chest.
How mortifying.
What was I expecting from a man like Mason? I held my towel and had wanted to ask him what he was laughing at but that would do nothing, if he hadn’t made me fall then all this wouldn’t have happened in the first place.
“Why would you do that?” I demanded, my voice breaking as I hit him across the chest. I’d intended for the hit to be way harder than it initially came out and Mason only took my hand in his and shoved me away from him.
“My only regret right now is the fact that I didn’t have it on camera.” He said amidst laughter and I snarled.
How dare he.
“Just wait, just wait till I tell my mother and Danny that you’re trying your best to see me naked at all cost.” I threatened as I tried to pick up my body wash and body scrubs.
The sound of Mason’s laughter gets me angry each time and now isn’t different. He’s supposed to be apologising and not laughing at a mistake he made.
It wasn’t even a mistake. He’d done it intentionally.
“Oh please, I’ve seen better bodies and yours don’t even come close so don’t flatter yourself.” He said as he made his way to his room and the only thing on my mind was to pounce on him and yank his head off his neck but I couldn’t risk my towel coming off once again.
The day went by quickly and I couldn’t wait for Nicole to come over. I picked up my phone to check the time and it was almost 7 PM and when the doorbell finally rang.
She’d told me to send the address to her so she doesn’t miss her way. I was expecting her a little bit earlier but this works too. I sprung out of my bed to go get the door for her when I saw the door already opened and Mason was trying to flirt with her.
“Get away from me,” I heard Nicole say and I smiled triumphantly.
That’s my girl.
“Ava?! Ava!” She called out just as I appeared in the doorway.
“Speak of the devil and it’ll appear right before you,” Mason said on a scoff which made me roll my eyes.
“Here she is, but if you want to hang out with me later, since, you know? Your friend is such a bore.” He added which made me roll my eyes once again.
“My room is right next to hers by the way.” He was still saying when Nicole walked past him and made her way to me.
She looked so unaffected by Mason and I was finally happy that there was someone else not affected by his stupid charm.
I pulled Nicole up the stairs as we both walked to my bedroom together, we got in and she slammed the door shut. She looked around the bedroom like there was anyone else in the room with us.
“Oh my goodness!” She started as she pulled me into the bed along with her, already making herself hella comfortable.
“You didn’t tell me your step brother was this hot!” She exclaimed and I rolled my eyes.
Okay, she only decided to act unaffected for me.
“I had no idea, oh my gosh, he’s so fucking hot. I think I didn’t really get a full glimpse of his face because I saw him that night the other time and with all the lights from the party…” she continued and I rolled my eyes in irritation.
To think that I had just been feeling glad that she was immune to his charms.
“One more talk about Mason and you’ll be cleaning up my puke. I’m sure you don’t want that.” I muttered and she laughed at me like I was joking.
“What the hell happened?” She asked and I explained the incident this morning to her. I told her he intentionally tripped me and I fell and not only did I fall but my towel fell too and I stood bare chested in front of him for a few long seconds only for him to tell me there was nothing special about my body.
“He couldn’t even apologise!” I yelled and Nicole burst out laughing till she was shedding tears and holding her ribs.
“If you’re going to laugh at me and not make me feel better then you might as well just leave my room or the house as well.” I said as I wrapped myself up and clutched my knee.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
I don’t know what’s so funny about that incident.
“I’m sorry.” She apologised but soon started laughing again and I rolled my eyes.
“I’m never coming out of my room,” I cried as I took the blanket and covered myself up with it. “Or maybe I’ll just commit suicide with my favorite bra.” I said as I buried my face in my pillow and Nicole laughed on and on.
The next thing I know is that I got dragged out of bed by Nicole.
“If I have to drag you all the way down there, I will but you’ll just have to bear the pains.”
