Lost Love

Chapter 51

Michael's mum literally pushed him and Raphael out of the house when it was time for me to get ready for the party. They were to dress up in one of their numerous relation's house and meet us back at the house when it was time.
The house had already been decorated by the maids with her supervising them. It looked really beautiful but I didn't have the time to examine it before I was pushed into my room to start my makeover.
Michael two female cousins; Nikita and Ava were both skilled in makeover stuff so they were to assist me in preparing.
We were talking as they fussed over my face and hair and I realized that it's been long since I've been in the company of females. They were really nice and before long they were done.
I looked at myself in the mirror and I felt different. The light blue eyeshadow combined with the dark eyeliner made my eyes pop out and made me look sexy.
The highlighter brought out my facial features and the shining lipgloss on my lips made it look soft and inviting.
My hair was curled into soft ringlets with some pinned up and the others framing my face delicately. Nikita did my hair while Ava concentrated on the make up. Their work were flawless if I could say that.
My face was glowing and the hair made me look really good. I felt like crying but Ava warned me not to shed a single tear so I wouldn't ruin the whole thing.
I stood up and extended my hands for a hug while trying not to ruin the makeover. I really appreciated their efforts to make me look really nice.
They hurried me up to get into my dress as the party was starting in 30 mins time and they still had to dress up too.
When we were all done, we took several pictures and if not for Olivia, we would have wasted hours trying to get a good shot. She hurried us downstairs where the party was supposed to start.
"Michael's gonna drop his pants when he sees you this night you know?" That was from Nikita.
I smiled already blushing from that statement.
"Awwnnn she's already blushing. I swear you guys are my favourite couple. I haven't heard anything other than your name anytime Michael talks. He adores you." That was from Ava.
"It's hard not to like you. I mean you are beautiful, nice and funny- a powerful combination if you ask me...."
I couldn't keep up with their conversation as they kept complimenting me. My cheeks were already hurting from smiling too much; I just couldn't contain my happiness. If everyone in his family were like this then I had no reason whatsoever to be nervous. They were all so nice.
We descended down the stairs and I came face to face with Michael. He was discussing with someone before I came but when he heard sounds from the stairs, he turned to look and he has been looking at me ever since then.
Nikita and Ava were busy giggling like school girls and I was waiting for him to say something. Like a lightbulb turned off in his brain, he finally blinked and engulfed me into a kiss. My brain couldn't process anything but his lips; they were too soft and kissable.
My mind went back to the night we spent together and as I deepened the kiss, I heard the sound of people clapping and hooting. My face turned red and I immediately disentangled my lips regrettably though- I still miss the feeling of his lips on mine.
"We should continue this later at night don't you think?" He whispered in my ears before winking at me.
I looked around to see all eyes on us with Nikita and Ava's own being so prominent. They were both wiggling their eyebrows at me. I shook my head while smiling; they were just too goofy.
"Your cousins are nice" I said after a moment of us mingling with guests and well wishers. He introduced me to his other cousins and their parents. They were too many and I couldn't remember all their names.
"Well they have to be; I'm nice am I not?" He replied cheekily.
"Don't be so proud now. You are not so nice in the office"
"That's in the office if I'm too soft no one would take me seriously not even you"
"That's true though but at least I know now that you are just a big baby Mickey" I said the last part mimicking his sister's baby tone
He scowled at me before trapping my waist with his hands.
"I might be a big baby but we both know something that is really big that you love"
I raised up one eyebrow feigning ignorance.
"And what might that be my love?"
"You know we could go up to the room and instead of telling you I could just show you in so many ways" his voice had dropped  some octaves lower and I shivered as his hot breath caressed my ears. My body was pressed to his and to any onlooker would have misinterpreted our position.
I jumped out of his arms as someone cleared their throats infront of us. Adjusting myself and trying to control my racing heart, I glanced forward and saw a very beautiful lady. She looked to be about my age with long red hair she left flowing down to her back. She was way taller than I was and she looked like a model. Her makeup was nicely done and she was putting on black mermaid gown that hugged her features. She was really pretty.
She smiled at me when she noticed me checking her out and I offered a smile back. In the minutes that followed she stared at Micheal and her eyes followed his hands on my waist before settling back on Michael. I didn't know what was going on and the silence was really uncomfortable.
As I opened my mouth to say something, she said;
"I couldn't believe it when I heard about your engagement so I decided to invite myself here to see."

Hmmmmmm, what do you think is gonna happen...drum rolls pleaseeeeeee
Who is this mystery woman?
I was debating within myself if I should add drama to their beautiful love life- I was thinking I shouldn't add it because of what I've planned at the end but then I was like they can't just go smoothly na so it's was at the last minute I added mystery woman.
