Saturday comes fast. Ciara picks me up at six o'clock. She was actually teasing her brother because he was literally sulking when I was leaving.

I wonder what's wrong with him. He was the one telling me don't get attached to them and I'm really trying my best and now he looks like he needs his own words.

Ciara's house is actually as big as Stefan. I wonder how only one person can live in such a huge house. Isn't it scary?

"Don't squint your face Jess", Ciara chides softly while concentrating on my face. She's actually doing my makeup.

"Ciara", I groan. "It's been like thirty minutes since I'm sitting still. My butt hurts."

"No Jess", she giggles. "It's been only ten minutes. Sit quietly and still. If you move one more time I swear I'll drag you to the party with ruin eyeliner."

"You wouldn't dare", I say and pop my eyes open.

"Don't try me", she warns and squints her eyes.

I can totally see she's going to keep her words. No wonder Stefan is her brother!

I can't even wear eyeliner so maybe I should just sit still.

"You're just treating me like a barbie doll or something", I murmur and she starts laughing.

"You will be gasping by the end of this transformation. From cute to goddess!"

I sigh and let her continue do whatever she's doing.

"So what do you think of Stefan now?", she asks after a few beats.

"What do you mean?"

"Do you like him?"

My eyes fly wide open and I shake my head.

"Bitch!", she says. "I'm doing your eyes. Close them and don't act all innocent. I see the way you both look at each other."

"It's nothing", I mutter.

"Keep telling me yourself this honey", she says while laughing.

"You know I never had real actual friends", Ciara confesses after a while.

This time I open my eyes to look at her. She's applying some sort of highlighter on my face.

"Why?", I ask. "I mean you're so cool and kind."

"I had a few but turned out they were just using me to get famous and also because of Stefan", she says and rolls her eyes.

"Wait let me guess. Your friends had a crush on him."

"Yes", she states and swats my hand when I'm trying to take the mirror.

"Not now. Let's get you in your dress first."

She drags me in her closet and gives me a black sequin dress. I wear it carefully avoiding messing my hair and face.

"Oh my God!", Ciara gasps and smiles. "Where's Jess and what have you done with her?!"

"Can I look now please?", I whine.

"Not without your high heels babe."

She removes a pair of shiny high heels from a Christian Louboutin box. My eyes remain wide open when she removes the silky red cloth from it and gives it to me.

"It's too high. I won't be able to walk in these!"

"Just wear it. You'll get use to it once you start walking."

I wear them and my feet wiggle before finally feeling settle on them. Ciara wears her dress and puts on her nude high heel as well.

"You look gorgeous", I say and she twirls around.

Her sequin nude dress is sticking to her body like a second skin, accentuating her curves more. But wait a second, mine is also the same.

"We are matching", I gasp and she nods enthusiastically.

She turns me towards her huge mirror and my mouth falls open when I look at myself. I look so different. Gone is the dull plain Jessica. She's replace with a hot and sexy look. The red bold lipstick is giving my face a fierce hot look.

This is the first time I'm actually feeling sexy. The dark sequins black short dress reaches my mid thighs and the smokey eyes and red lipstick is really making me hard to recognize myself in the mirror.

"I like it", I exclaim happily.

"I'm glad you do."

"Thank you Ciara", I say and throw my arms around him.

"Can I be yours and Leo's best friend too?", she pouts. "I know I'm three years your senior but that shouldn't matter ight?"

"Of courage not!", I smile. "We already love you."

"Come let's take a picture", she says excitedly and removes her phone.
She clicks a mirror selfie first.

"Let me click one for you. I'll send it to Stefan", she says casually and adjusts my front curls.

"What? Why?"

"Just wait and watch", she gives me a foxy smile.

She makes me do some poses and after
about a fifteen minute photo shoot, we are done.

"Ciara", I say while I look at myself in the mirror. "Don't you think it's too much?"

"No Jess. Besides we totally decided to go clubbing after if it's boring there. So improvise, adapt, overcome."

I shake my head at her statement.

"Do you watch memes?"

"Of course I do", she grins.

"How can you be so perfect?!", I say damatically with one hand on my chest.
"
Cause I am", she flips her hair and poses for me.

We drives to her friend's place and all the way we keep listening to 'Senorita' by Shawn and Camilla.

We are still singing along with them when my phone vibrates.

Why is Stefan texting me?

'Where are you going dress like that?!?'

"Ciara", I groan and turn the music slightly down. "You actually sent him the picture! Why?!"

"I told you that I would do it", she smiles evilly and turns up the music again.

"I love it when you call me senorita....", she sings along.

I return my eyes back on the phone debating whether or not to reply back.

I'm still thinking when suddenly he starts calling me.

Gasping, I turn the volume of the music down again.

"Hey!", Ciara frowns. "You're ruining my singing session with Shawn!"

"Stefan is calling", I say urgently.

"Pick it up!", she grins.

"Where do you think you're going wearing a short dress like that?!", he starts asking right away. "Did you lie to me?! You're not actually going to a girl's party, are you?"

I listen to his small rants and Ciara stops the car. I think we are already here.

"Calm yourself Stefan", Ciara says after taking the phone from me. "She's not your girlfriend for God's sake! Let her live. Besides there's just going to be some male strippers there. That's all."

I try controlling my laughter. She's definitely trying to piss him off and it's actually working. She holds the phone a few distance away from her ear and giggles.

"He's screaming", she mouths and hands me the phone.

"There better be no fucking strippers there Ciara or I swear.......", I hear Stefan's frantic voice.

"She's kidding", I interrupt his rant.

"Jess!", he breathes. "I'm coming to get you right now!"

"No!", I blurt. "Don't come. Why are you getting hyper all of a sudden?"

"You're wearing a short dress", he states in a low voice. "There's going to be strippers there and I'm not there with you!"

"It's fine. Ciara is only kidding. Besides I don't mind a little strip show", I tease.

Ciara starts laughing.

"What?"

"I'll call you if anything happens", I add quickly. "Goodnight Stefan"

I cut the call instantly.

"Poor guy", Ciara says while laughing. "Seems like he won't be getting any sleep anytime soon."

She rings the bell and a woman wearing a tight red dress opens the door. She already have a flute of champagne in her hand.

"Ciara", she says happily. "I'm so happy you could make it."

Ciara introduces us. Apparently she's Sara and she's the bride. We enter inside and my jaw falls open.

Holy cow!

Sara's house is completely like a nightclub with all the lights everywhere. But what catches my attention most is the pole right in the middle of the room with a platform.

There's really going to be a strip show?! Oh my goodness!

"Ciara", I murmur near her ear. "There's really going to be a strip show here?"

"Maybe", she grins. "Let's go for a drink."

We walk to the bar and Ciara orders some sort of martini of her. Frankly speaking, I don't have any experience with alcohol. I'm already twenty one and have never really tasted alcohol in my existence. Firstly, it's because I hate drunk people and I don't ever want to become one and secondly I have never felt the need of it and I'm actually proud of myself.

Leo do consumes alcohol but in moderation. He hates drunk people as well. Ciara takes her drink and I just order some sprite for myself. We look around watching everyone while she points out to some girls she doesn't likes.

"Just wait Jess", she says. "You'll see some will come asking about Stefan. They are always desperate."

True to her words, one blonde really come to ask her about Stefan. She even tells Ciara to give him her number. 

"I'm sorry Melissa", Ciara feigns a sad voice. "But my brother says he's going to date someone with purple hair. He finds it exciting because blondes are boring."

"Really?", she beams. "Then I'm going to dye my hair first thing in the morning. Just don't forget to give him my number."

"Of course", Ciara nods.

"Oh my God Ciara", I gasp lowly. "Why did you do that?! She's really going to dye her hair purple."

"I know right", she laughs evilly. "But serves her right. She already has a boyfriend. I guess she still has her eyes on Stef."

I shake my head in disbelief. Some girls are just unbelievable but hey to each their own.

"Jess will you be okay here for a few minutes?", Ciara asks after a while. "I'll just meet a client of mine. She's been waving at me."

"Of course."

Ciara leaves and I keep on sipping my drink. I look around. Everyone seem to be enjoying themselves. The bride looks so happy. The place itself is so lively with different types of lights everywhere.

I'm still looking around when my eyes suddenly fall on the counter. There's an assortments of candies,chocolate, cakes, brownies and cupcakes.

I eye them hungrily. That's a treat right there. Taking a cupcake, I take a bite and it is heavenly. My eyes roll back in my head. While waiting for Ciara, I lost count of many sweet goodies I ate.

All of a sudden, I start to feel woozy. What's wrong with me? Thinking it's just a sugar rush, I take another candy and pop it in my mouth.

After a few minutes, I start giggling at the lights. They are all changing colours from time to time. I see the bartender placing shots on the counter. I have never try it before. Feeling brave all of a sudden, I take one and drink it. It burns my throat but ignoring the burning sensation, I drink them all.

"Jess", Ciara says. "I'm sorry you had to sit alone. That woman would not let me leave."

I giggle again.

"What's funny?", she asks in confusion.

"Everything", I drawl.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Everything"

I watch Ciara as her eyes widen when she sees me eating another cupcake.

"Oh no baby no!", she starts shaking her head. "Don't eat that."

Her eyes widen more when she looks at the tray and at the empty glasses.

"Jesus Jess!", she gasps. "You almost ate a whole tray of cupcakes! You even took shots!

I start laughing at her reaction.

"It's so goooooooood."

"I'm in deep shit", Ciara panicks. "You're so high. Stefan will kill me."

I reach out my hand to take another cupcake.

"Don't!", she holds my hand quickly. "You had enough. We need to go home."

"But I'm hungry", I pout.

"Stefan will feed you. Let's go."

Ciara takes my hand and drags me outside.

"But Ciara I want to dance", I say and pull my hand away from her grasp. "Let me go inside. There's a pole."

"Oh no you don't", Ciara snaps and taking my hand again, she drags me inside the car.

"You're so mean", I murmur.

"Jess", she sighs. "I'm sorry but you need to get home and sleep. You look so high right now."

"Oh my god yes!" I giggle. "I feel so high. Like I can fly."

"Ciara", I shout suddenly. "Where's my baby?"

"What baby?", she asks while driving.

"Stop the car! I want my baby!"

Ciara looks at me then slants her eyes back on the road.

"Stefan is going to have a long night", she murmurs.

"Is Stefan my baby?", I ask her.

"Yes", she smirks. "He is."

I feel so hungry right now. It's as if I can eat anything. I decide to remain quiet because Stefan, my baby, is going to feed me.

I put on some music and start singing loudly.

"Sing with me bitch", I shout.

Ciara laughs and we start singing loudly.

The car stops after a while and feeling tired, I lean back on my seat.

"Oh my God", Ciara murmurs. "I'm actually scared of taking you inside right now."

"Don't worry Ciara", I try to console her. "I will protect you. This is my kingdom and I'm the queen here. Nobody can hurt you."

She starts laughing. "You're so funny when drunk Jess. But Stefan is going to kill me."

"Call my servant!", I say and sit in a straight posture.

"Come on let's go"

"I'm not going anywhere!", I say stubbornly. "I need to be carried. I'm the queen here!"

"Jess", Ciara sighs. "Fine stay here ok. Don't move."

She gets out and suddenly turns to look at me. Maybe a thought have passed inside her head because she locks the door before leaving.

"Hey", I gasp and tap the window. "How dare you locking the queen in here? You betrayed me!"
