Chapter Six: Thanks for offering a seat in my own cabin, cunt.

Start from the beginning
                                    

'She left with her friends to go to a bar.' Sebastian said. His voice sounded a bit more slurry. The alcohol was getting to his brain, slowly. 'I...uh...can I help?'

I looked in his eyes, staring at me. For once, I saw the old Sebastian in him. The Sebastian I fell in love with. He had the charm in his eyes, not the cold stare he held these days. This was the Sebastian I trusted with my life. I slowly nodded, turning around.

For a minute, I stood there silently but nothing happened. Then the next second, long and slender fingers touched my back and I closed my eyes. The burning sensation returned again. But this time my whole body was on fire. Sebastian cursed when the hooks didn't go through the loops in the first try. They were a bit problematic, I had to agree. I winced as he pulled on some of my hair. He apologized under his breath and slowly pulled the hair in front, his fingers touching my skin on the way. He finally managed to clasp the hooks and I dropped my hands on the sides. I was going to turn around to thank him but his hand crept forward from my back to my waist. He pushed me towards him and I think I was drunk when I realized that I felt something stir in his pants. The only problem was that I hadn't taken any drink, only some whiskey which was left midway, yet I felt drunk.

He was drunk, out of his wits.

'I forgot to tell you something tonight.' He whispered next to my ear. I rolled my eyes. Don't tell me I had to do one more report.

'You looked stunning tonight. I couldn't take my eyes off you.' Sure, that's why you kept me in a room to do a stupid report. But his voice...it sounded so genuine, like he actually meant it. But then it struck me.

Ivory was wearing a black dress too. This drunk peanut was thinking that I was Ivory and saying all these things. After the huge part in my head called the brain made a reasonable point, the little part in my chest called the heart broke into smaller fragments. He thought I was Ivory.

'Leah, you were always beautiful to me.' He said placing a soft kiss on my neck. My heartbeat accelerated at an unusual rate and my chest rose and fell down rapidly. I arched my back and couldn't stop the moan from escaping.

I suddenly turned around and I frowned at him, 'My sister's name is Ivory, not Leah.'

He chuckled and muttered, 'I know, Leah.'

Either he thought I was Ivory but mistakenly called me Leah or he thought I was Beth but called my Leah by mistake. Or he was just a peanut.

He chuckled and fell down on the floor going in a deep slumber at the same moment. Now what the hell was I supposed to do? I obviously couldn't carry him and there was nobody in the house. I knelt down, uncomfortably, beside him and tried to wake him up.

He stirred a bit and I couldn't help but asking, 'Sebastian, why did you give me the reports to finish tonight?'

'Because I wantedddd' He started singing and I smiled, 'you to stay saaa'

Before he could complete his word, he fell asleep. Snoring slightly. Now that peanut wouldn't get up until the next afternoon. I groaned. He wanted me to stay saaa?

I looked at his softened features while he was sleeping. He was frowning slightly and I couldn't help but trace my finger on his right eyebrow. His tensed position relaxed and he smiled slightly in his sleep. I wish this Sebastian would come back.

My mind started rewinding the moment between us a few minutes ago. He called me Leah. I was hearing my name from his mouth after a long time. I used to love the way my name used to come off his tongue in high school. I smiled.

But for the second time in the day, I remembered Beth.

She still loved him. I couldn't do this to her.
