Olivia’s POV
“You don’t have to behave like a slut”
I can’t believe what he just said, It takes me a few seconds to process it and all I can say is- “Classy Raphael”
I walk to the door and Raphael blocks it with his studying person. He is looking tired like he has been working too much. My heart is aching seeing him this way, but I have to stop myself from caring.
“Move”
“No”
“Get the fuck away from me” – I manage to say trying to avoid the spillage of tears that formed in my eyes.
“I can’t” – He says taking my hand into his
“Great” – I let out while I move away from him and start nervously walking around in the bathroom.
“You lost weight” – he says and it takes me by surprise, I did lose some weight but nothing major, nothing people would notice, but he did, he noticed that I have been trying to change myself to feel better about the break-up. I know I shouldn’t do it, but I needed to feel better about me again.
“Yeah and?”
“Why?” – he asks me moving his eyes up and down my body
“None of your business, you have no right to ask me anything”
“Olivia” – When he says my name I stop breathing and I put my arm between us while he moves, I can’t have him close, I am about to lose it. My hand touches his body and I can feel the warmth coming from him. Fuck me how I miss this men.
“Don’t get any closer – I let out after being able to breathe again
“Olivia, please”
“No, Raphael, I don’t want to hear it, let me out”
“Olivia”
“NO, YOU RUINED EVERYTHING” – I shout for the first time allowing my frustration to take over.
“Sorry”
I walk past him and leave the bathroom. I can feel the tears running down my face and I quickly clean them with the back of my hand and walk back to my group of friends.
“Hey you okay?” – John asks
“Yeah, I need a drink” – I say and almost instantly he puts a glass of vodka with coke on my hand. I drink it fast and when I finish I grab his own drink and I down it.
I can feel his eyes on me, I look around and there he is, he’s in the VIP area just looking at me. My eyes meet his and I turn around and I start paying attention to the conversation surrounding me.
“I’m going to the bar” – I shout near John’s ear and he nods his head – “Do you want anything?”
“Get me vodka Redbull please”
“Okay” – I say and start walking towards the bar, there’s a lot of people waiting to be served so I support my body against the bar and take a deep breath while I wait to be served
“What can I get you gorgeous?” – I hear the barmen asking
“Hi, can I have a vodka with Redbull and a vodka with 7up please?”
“Sure Lovely”
I blush with the way the lovely British barmen is talking to me, it’s been a while since someone called me gorgeous.
“Here you go, It’s on me”
“Oh, thank you” – I say while I grab the glasses and he passes me a piece of paper with his phone number.
“If you to grab a cup of coffee” – he says and I smile at the beautiful men.
I walk towards our table and pass John his glass.
“I’m gonna dance” – I say grabbing my glass and walking towards the dance floor.
Titanium is playing and I kind of identify myself with that song, so I allow my mind to go blank and my body to move according to the rhythm.
Not long after I feel hands grabbing me from behind. I don’t want to turn around because I will be disappointed not seeing Raphael dancing behind me rubbing his perfect body against me.
I finish my drink and I keep dancing.
I am feeling a little dizzy, I think the alcohol is taking a toll on me. I move my body away from the guy that was dancing behind me and I walk very tipsily towards our table.
John sees me and grabs me right before I fall.
“I think it’s time to leave” – he says
“Just another drink”
“No babe, you had enough” – John says
“Okay, I just need a couple of seconds”
I grab my phone and I do what everyone tells you not to do when you are drunk. I am getting ready to drunk text when John takes my phone away from me shaking his head.
