Lois's POV
I walked into my parent's mansion with elegance and my head up high. I pushed open the large door and found my way to the dining room. Everybody was already seated waiting for me. My dad and Aaron's dad were seated next to each other, same with the mums. His sister sat close to him, but there was still a vacant seat on his right, so I assumed that was mine.
'You look beautiful sister's in-law' Aaron's sister Kayla said. I let out a small smile and found my way to my seat, which was beside Aaron. My dad stood up with a glass of wine and cleared his throat.
'Since we are all here, I think we can go straight to why we are here' he said. Then Aaron's father also stood up with his glass of wine.
'Before we begin, let us first raise a toast to the newly weds' Aaron's father said as everyone took their glass of wine higher.
'To the newly weds!' My dad yelled.
'To the newly weds!' Everyone chorused with him. They took their seats with smiles on their faces. They went on to murmuring some words between themselves before his dad finally faced us.
'The wedding announcement would be one of a kind, the biggest in the whole country' my dad said with a huge smile.
'Arrangements have been made. So put your mind to rest Carsons let us just enjoy tonight' my dad said, and everyone laughed. Everyone went on to eat the feast before them.
One who did not know my family would think they are a happy family and would be envious to be in my position. I took a deep breath and excused myself from there. I made my way to the pool area to take some fresh air and cool my thoughts. The tension in that room was suffocating and unbearable.
I took out a piece of cigarette from my bag. I lit it and took a puff, and that felt exhilarating.
'Care to light mine?' I familiar voice said. I looked over and saw it was Aaron. Memories of the night, he said those exact words came rushing at me, and a smile formed on my face, making him smile too. He came closer to me, and I stretched to light his. He held my hand before I could do anything.
I looked straight at him with a questioning gaze, and he looked straight at me, too. His face slowly moved close to mine, and before I knew it, his lips were on mine. His lips moved slowly against mine and mine against his. I wrapped my arms against his neck, and he placed his arms on my waist.
I forgot everything as we kissed. The kiss was filled with want and longing. The kiss slowly became aggressive. I slowly came to my senses and remembered how he was with another lady days ago, but I didn't care. I just wanted him.
We slowly broke the kiss apart. He looked like he had been wanting to do that all his life.
'Lois I am sorry, I don't know what I did, but I am sorry' he said, breaking the silence between us, and I scoffed. He didn't know what he did? Was he really being for real right now.
'I saw you Aaron' I said, shaking my head slowly, but he still looked confused.
'Saw me where?' he asked softly
'I saw her on top of you' I said lowly ' I saw her ride you in the bed we both slept on' I said my voice rising slolwy, I didn't want to sound jealous or anything, but I was genuinely pained and hurt.
'uh..mm' he tried saying, but I cut him off.
'You could have chosen any hotel, any but you chose the house we both shared, thr bed we both shared' I said, feeling so betrayed. The feelings of betrayal I felt days ago came rushing back.
'You think kissing me would make me forgive you? You jerk' I yelled and slapped him across the face. He looked so sorry and surprised, but I didn't care, I let myself fall for his tricks again and again. I hated him, and I hated myself. I started walking away, and I needed to clear my head again.
'Lois I am sorry' he said as he followed behind me. But I didn't listen and just ran off. How I keep falling for his tricks baffles me so much. I walked across the dining room and could feel questioning gazes on me.
'I am sorry, but an emergency came up' I said to them.
'Let me take you, you don't look so good' Kayla offered. I walked off, and she followed right behind me.
'Your keys?' she asked, and I gave them to her. She opened the doors, and then I got into the passenger seat.
'What did my brother do this time?' she said as she started driving. I could not say anything. It was as if my tongue was tied, but the tears rolled down my cheeks flawlessly. I could not make a sound, but the tears in my eyes made their way across my cheeks effortlessly.
'Oh sweetie' she said as she caught a glimpse of me crying.
'It's going to be okay, I promise' she said reassuringly, but I knew it wouldn't be.
I tried to pull myself together, telling myself it was a loveless marriage after all. It was a loveless marriage, but I felt so betrayed and stupid. I felt so angry seeing that girl on top of him, I liked the way his lips felt against mine. I longed to be in his arms all day long, I thought of him every time. I replay the first time he kissed me in my head to remember how good his lips felt against mine. My heart skips a beat whenever I see him. I don't think this is a loveless marriage anymore. I think I am falling in love with Aaron Carson.
