Fade's Pov: 

I was feeling anxious and really scared. Currently we were walking through the halls towards the larger room. Several people greeted Stefan while I just looked down not wanting to interact with anyone. The moment was here we had to enter the hall.

Well it wasn't much bad because they all greeted us and smiled at us. It was pretty warm in the hall so I took my coat off and hung it near the door with other people's stuff too. I returned to Stefan and he looked me his eyes darkening. I looked away from his burning gaze towards floor while standing next to him.

"Hey guys! How is everyone doing?" It was a man whose bachelorette party was going on. Then I recognized him from somewhere. I had seen him, his jaw and his hair they looked so familiar. Wait is that the guy that Maisie showed me on her phone?

Wait-

Then I saw a women emerge from the side. It was Maisie? How? So we're at her bachelorette party- no fucking way. She hadn't noticed me yet but Stefan saw my shocked reaction.

"Is everything okay?" He asked me concerned. I nodded and replied with a 'yes' while he still looked skeptical.

We started meeting more people here and there and I couldn't help but think that will my Aunt and uncle be here too? They are Maisie's parent's, they would be here, no please no.

Even though I hadn't seen them in a while but maybe they weren't here for now. Fuck. It was time to meet Maisie and her fiancè.

They came to us and Stefan introduced them, "Fade, meet Mr. Nicholas and Mrs. Maisie, Maisie and Nicholas this is Fade, my date," he smiled at both of them and Maisie looked shocked too just like me. I was too busy thinking about Maisie that I hadn't realised that Stefan called me his date.

"Actually, I know Fade, she is my cousin," she spoke while fake smiling. I didn't know what I did wrong but but she didn't look happy that I was there with him, but why?

"Oh that's great if you guy's know eachother, let's go have drinks," Stefan said through the side while Maisie didn't smile at me once.

Wtf Mase what is wrong with you?

After a few drinks, I decided to go to the bathroom to check on my makeup and hair. I told Stefan while he nodded and started talking to some other people. I got rid of all the people there and opened the bathroom door and saw myself infront of the mirror, I actually looked good.

The bathroom door opened and Maisie came in. I looked at her while she looked at me and closed the bathroom door with a sigh. "Hey Fade," she greeted me.

"Hey Mase," I greeted but she didn't look very happy, her mood seemed off.

"So umm....is everything okay?" I asked her.

"Fade, what you're doing is wrong," she replied while staring at me.

"What do you mean?" I asked her confused.

"Dating Stefan? Really?"

"What does that have to do with you?" I asked, I know I seemed rude but her behavior didn't seem friendly too.

"He is gonna leave you, you know that".

"What?"

"Don't you know his reputation? A guy who uses women and throws them away like a tissue," she replied while trying to sound nice.

"Why would you say that? Aren't you happy for me?" I asked her looking away and feeling hurt.

"Fade you used to be so different, you're becoming a gold digger using his money and everything? Are you serious?" She asked not replying to my question making me scoff in disbelief. How dare she?

"Maisie, don't dare say that when you don't know the real-", she cut me off with a wave of her hand while speaking again.

"I've heard enough. Shut up. I never knew you could stoop this low," she said rolling her eyes as she turned around leaving the bathroom making me sigh.

Tears filled my eyes and I quickly wiped them carefully not to ruin my makeup. After a while I went out the bathroom door and into the hall. I saw Stefan looking for me and I went to him.

"Hey is everything okay?" He asked me holding my hands. "Yeah," I replied shortly while feeling a little drowsy. I was about to collapse when Stefan caught me.

"Can we go home please?" I asked him, and he saw my tired state.

"Sure, let's get you home princess," he replied smiling making me slightly smile too as I held his arm to leave. Why did I feel this way? What am I feeling towards him?
