4| NIGHT, NIGHT

FREMA:

"Get up bitch, we're going to a party!" Riley suddenly yelled and I narrowed my eyes at her.

"What the hell, Riles, I'm dead ass tired, the least you could do is leave me alone." I said, frowning at my own cuss words.

"Get. Up., You fucking sloth. Arsen needs me at a party and I'm not going alone. You learned how to cuss, might as well learn how to party too." She said, giving me a pointed look.

"Arsen? Come on, Riles, you know how my brother is, he's gonna get mad if he sees me at any party." I said reasonably and she bit down at her lip, deep in thought.

"You know what? I'll handle Arsen. Now get your ass up and let's go to the fucking party." She said, dragging me to the closet.

"Okay! Okay! I'm going! Stop dragging me around like a pig," I said, and she let go of me, grinning.

"I promise you'll thank me later, babes." She said and dug into my closet, searching for a dress or whatever.

I rolled my eyes and picked out a Jean booty shorts Jumpsuit and a matching jean jacket.

She better pray Arsen liked her enough to let this slide.

Deciding to leave my hair as it was, I patted the curly hair a few times before putting on my black converse and turning back to the mirror.

Riley wolf-whistled behind me and I smirked. I knew I was blessed with both ass and boobs so I was already used to getting stared at. According to everyone, I took it from my mama. Which wasn't a lie, since she was curvy as well.

I turned to Riley and my jaw dropped slightly at her choice of clothing. She was dressed in an extra short black gown which exposed most of her cleavage and damn, it was hot.

She wasn't so curvy but the little she had was just perfect.

"Now for the makeup," she started, smirking at my dazed look before dragging me to a seat and doing her magic on my face.

"All done, best friend." She said and I turned to the mirror, barely recognizing myself. Riley worked wonders.

"You're so damn amazing, Riles." I said, smiling.

"Been told," she shrugged, applying her own makeup. Once she was done, she turned to me and grinned.

"Let's go get my brother." I said, smirking.

Getting to the party, I felt my confidence level dropping lower as we got inside the club.

"Um, Riley, is there a restroom here?" I asked, feeling the sudden urge to pee. Exactly what happens when I come to crowded places such as these. It was a surprise that I did not want to throw up as well.

"Uhun," she answered, absentminded, "I see Arsen!" She screamed suddenly and I groaned.

"Just show me the fucking restroom, Riley." I spoke again. She grabbed my wrist and half-ran with me, stopping at a door.

"Thanks." I mumbled and pushed the door open immediately, getting straight to my business.

Once I was done, I flushed and walked out.

Shit, I barely knew where the hell I was.

Giving up, I settled at the bar table, ordering a glass of tequila. I downed everything in one gulp and turned.

Holyfuck.

Arsen was looking back at me with a non-pleasant scowl on his face and in that moment, I cursed Riley for ever convincing me. Where in the hell was she now anyways?!

I did a lame wave as he began to walk closer and gulped when he kept walking.

"What the hell are you doing here, Frema?" He asked and I frowned.

"I'm a fucking grown woman, Arsen, I think I'm allowed to be wherever the hell I want to be." I snapped, feeling pissed at his cold tone. His eyes widened by a fraction and I suddenly realised my mistake.

"You can use cuss words now." He said and I blinked.

"I- well, sort of." I answered, feeling low all of a sudden. His face became rigid as he muttered under his breath. Riley turned up behind him and I felt slight relief by her presence.

"Arsen," she spoke from behind him. He tensed for a split second and then eased up slightly. She inhaled slowly and continued, "I was the one who convinced her to come, I swear she never even wanted to be here, so you should take out your anger on me instead.. Not her." She completed, sucking in a breath as Arsen turned to face her.

"She's my bloody sister, gorgeous, and as much as I'd like to punish you right now for taking her out here, she has to pay for her own mistakes as well." He said and then bent to whisper against her ear, "I'll deal with you later." He completed and turned to me. My mouth opened and closed due to loss of words.

"I'm--" I started, but he cut me off as soon as the word left my lips.

"I guess I don't need to be so overprotective anymore. My job has ended, Frema. You're a big girl now and you can take care of yourself, from here onwards." He said bluntly and walked off, half-dragging Riley with him. I felt hot tears form in my eyes and I swallowed, realizing I didn't want him to stop being so overprotective.

I wanted my big brother back.

Sighing in regret, I ordered another tequila shot and drank the whole thing in one swift motion. All my sorrows had to go down tonight. They just had to.

"Hello sweetheart," I heard someone call from behind me. I didn't bother to turn as I snapped,

"Go bother someone else, will you? I'm kinda busy here." The idiot seemingly found it funny 'cause he laughed.

"No sweetheart, I can't bother someone else. You're the one the boss asked for." He said and I opened my mouth to ask him what the hell he was saying but never got to as he clamped a handkerchief to my nose and the last thing I saw was black.
