Spoiling The Billionaire’s Good Son

Shane’s POV

I couldn’t take my eyes off her, not even for a second. I had this feeling that if I looked away, I’d miss a whole lot of crazy things about her. I mean, who in her right mind would gladly take her clothes off just for some stupid game? I must admit she has a really nice body but showcasing it to everyone, seriously?

I watched her with the crowd and shook my head. She has been dancing, playing games, and drinking. I also noticed that Derek stayed glued to her and wouldn’t let her take a step without him falling behind her. What’s with him anyway? What does he want with her?

“Are you okay?” Layla asked beside me. I can’t believe that I had totally forgotten about her. “We can leave if you’re not comfortable. I’ll get Theo and the girl”

“Renee” I corrected absentmindedly “Her name is Renee”

“Huh?” She voiced and turned to look at me. That was when I realized what I had just done. She looked just as surprised as I was but I looked away immediately.

Yes, her name is Renee, the name that has suddenly stuck to my mind like glue. But what the heck is wrong with me? I didn’t use to be like this and believe me when I said that Layla was the only female name that stuck in my brain.

I’ve never looked at a girl for more than five seconds, except Layla cause she was my best friend and we were so close to each other. Secondly, I never broke my rules for anyone, not after abiding by them for nineteen years now. But what I still can’t believe is the fact that I’m still here, not wanting to leave.

The initial plan was to leave as soon as she saw me, at least that would’ve proved that I wasn’t whatever she called me but here I am, standing in a corner with an untouched drink in my hand and staring at her.

“She’s weird. She’s a psycho” Layla spat and shook her head “Can’t believe she’ll be staying with us for a really long time”

Not knowing what to say, I hummed my response, not taking my eyes off the crazy girl who was now standing in a corner with Derek of all people. I cringed when he took out a lighter and lit his cigarette. Is that allowed here? I’ve never attended a party but judging from the parties Kade throws from time to time, I know that all sorts of things happen but THAT… THAT is certainly out of the line. We’re all kids and we’re not supposed to be smoking. I don’t even think that we’re supposed to own a lighter.

But what is she still doing with him? Doesn’t that prove that he’s a bad guy and she is supposed to steer clear of him?

He took a drag from the cigarette and instead of moving away, she pulled it out of his lips and placed it on hers. The heck? Derek smirked and watched as she took several drags before puffing out the smoke on his face. He coughed while she dropped the cigarette inside his drink and walked off, smirking.

Holy Christ, who is she?

“Um… Have you seen Renee?” Layla suddenly asked and looked around. I bet she hadn’t seen what I had just seen. “What are you looking at?”

“Nothing!” I hastily replied and turned to look at her as anxiety sprouted across my skin. She smokes! Oh God, I need to stay as far away from her cause this only shows that she’s a bad girl. “We need to leave,” I told Layla.

She nodded and looked around “I’ll inform the both of them”

Once she walked off, I started walking out of the party ground, wading through a swarm of sweaty heaving bodies swaying to the music. Most people were wasted while others were making out. Yuck, I couldn’t just stand the sight of all of them sucking off each other’s faces. Why do they even do that?

Five girls tried to throw themselves at me but I scurried out. Never am I letting any of them touch me. When I got outside, I heaved a sigh of relief. Surely, you don’t know how toxic an environment is until you breathe fresh air.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

I placed my hand on my chest to calm my erratic heart but then, a hard choking smell passed through my nostrils and I sneezed, my lungs flaring. I looked around to find some guys in a dark corner. While some were smoking, others were taking cocaine and heroin.

Yeah, I knew that because when I was ten, Kade had made me sit and watch him take them. I didn’t participate but I could remember passing out due to a serious panic disorder. Since then, I couldn’t forget about it and I swore never to have anything to do with it or anyone that was taking them.

And that’s another reason to stay away from Renee. She smokes! Jesus Christ, doesn’t she know the dangers attached to it or does someone have to knock it into her skull? What’s she playing at?

“Yo pussy, what’s good? ” I heard the voice yelling from behind and cringed. Without turning, I knew she was the one and that alone caused my heart to pulmmet. “Did you enjoy the party, huh?”

“Leave him alone, you’ve done enough!” That was Layla but she started laughing. Jeez, it was so loud that it kept ringing in my head.

“God, I enjoyed the party. All thanks to Renee” Theo chirped and laughed but I didn’t turn to look at any of them. I simply moved away, creating enough distance because I couldn’t stand her being so close to me. She made me nervous and my breathing erratic.

“Whatever, let’s go. You two smell terrible”

“Are you indirectly trying to say that you’re jealous ’cause you didn’t get to have fun?”

“Fun? You call drinking and playing some stupid game fun?” Layla shot back and I finally turned to look at them. Theo and Renee were standing together with arms around each other while Layla stood some distance away. “That’s lame”

“Hey, hi, do you remember me? We were dancing together a while ago” A girl said approaching them.

“Of course, I remember you, Ashes but I’m sorry we’re leaving” Theo replied and dragged Renee along only to earn a murderous glare from Ashley.

I know her because we’ve been classmates since preschool and she hates Theo’s guts. I mean, they hate each other and would never walk the same path without trying to strangle each other.

“Excuse you, asshole, just shut the fuck up else I’ll break your stupid neck”

“Oh lovely, I’d love to see you try, that’s if you’d still be breathing when I twist your face to the back!”

Renee chuckled and moved away from Theo, abruptly ending their fight. “Wo, that was intense and yes, I remember. I’m Renee and it’s nice to meet you”

“I’m Ashley but everyone calls me Ash”

“You mean Ashes?” Theo asked and earned a middle finger from Ashley.

I rolled my eyes and got on my bike while Layla followed suit, putting on her helmet. Theo had come with his car so I guess he and Renee would be going back home together.

“Can I have your number?” Ashley asked and Renee responded by collecting her phone to input her number. “I’ll call you so we’ll link up in school on Monday, bye. And stay the hell away from that dickhead. He’s a shitbag and an asshole ”

“Yeah, very funny” Theo replied with a scoff and gave her his middle finger as she walked away. I knew he wanted to fire more words at her but he just let it slide. I’m sure he’ll do it another day. Probably the next time he sets eyes on her.

I waited for them to get into the car and drive away first before I followed suit. Renee had her middle finger out of the window and I turned to see who she was shoving it at. Then, I saw Derek smiling and blowing kisses at her.

My jaw clenched and I found myself glaring daggers at him. “Stay away from her” I muttered under my breath, not knowing how it slipped out.
