chapter 86 enticing lips

So why are you here?,she asked.

I got a call from the secretary of the CEO of X $ X designer co. and they agreed to collab with us.

What really,that's such great news..

Hmm,I guess,as he said this Alexa came out of the room with her normal clothing on,she joined them in the couch.

What's the good news?,she asked,she had not being one to gossip or be a poke noser but they had really warmed up to her and so did she so any good news must be shared right.

X $ X agreed to the partnership with us,val said in joy and Alexa made a face of shock before recovering.

That's really good news you guys,you should celebrate.,she said but they didn't say anything.

Your going to celebrate right?,she asked unsure,she knew val was an outgoing person and would love to celebrate but William who was usually seen at the club with countless girls didn't go there often.

Am not really sure,I mean we have lots of things to take care of, val said.

That's nothing,How about we go out tomorrow,I mean it's the weekend so..

That's wonderful,val said and looked over at William.

You in wil?,she asked and he nodded bringing a smile to both the female's faces.

I'll have to go back you guys,I have an assignment due today I have to rush over and do it quickly,Alexa said and val looked sad to part with her.

Then we'll meet at the ball, William will pick you up,she said and they both looked at her.

Why, aren't we supposed you coming too?,Alexa asked.

Why should I,he is your date to the ball..

Date to the ball...

William was her date to the ball,how come she wasn't aware of this,she looked over at him and he also seemed confused but didn't look over nor say anything.

I heard that you go to any social event with William,I don't want to steal him away from you.

No please do steal him away, I've decides to mingle,val said.

You want to find a boyfriend?, William asked half knowingly.

Isn't it obvious,I mean am not like you who likes someone but won't pursue her,I'll go find a good man for myself.

What William you have someone you like,I really am getting lots of surprises today,Alexa said surprised.

What was happening today,she was getting surprised from all corners.

Tell me who is she,maybe I can help you get her,she said in hopes of hearing who he had feeling for but he wouldn't say anything to her.

Yh wil,she's your date she should know who you like.

It's not important,he said.

You're so boring,Alexa took her bag and walked out.

Val tried to hold a laugh in as Alexa walked out on William.

See what you've done,he said.

C'mon I was just playing,you can't take a joke,she said and left leaving him alone.

If I really tell her who I like,she would never approve,he thought with a self depreciating smile.

Later that evening,Alexa was in her dorm room getting ready,it would soon be time for curfew and if she wasn't fast,she wouldn't go.

Mia and tyla tried to help her but she still was giving them the silent treatment,though they were still good friends and helped her get ready quickly.

Her hair was short and there wasn't much to do on it,so she let it down,she put on silver earrings and applied little red lipstick,she didn't wear any necklace,she had being wearing one for over three years and she wasn't intending to take it off anytime soon..or never.

She was finally done,clad in her black mermaid dress,she had a curvatous body and the dress hung on the right places,she looked really alluring with her red lipstick,she put on her heels and held onto her bag.

She looked at her friends wanting to hear what they had to say, though she wasn't talking to them,she needed a rating on her dress.

You look gorgeous, Mia said.

Am giving you a 20/10 gal, tyla said and she was satisfied as she glanced at her self in the mirror.

You're gonna definitely slay it,and the men there are sure to have a nosebleed, tyla said jokingly and Alexa heard her phone ringing,she saw it was William.

I'll go now,she said to her friends.

Should we wait to for you..

No need,i won't be back till after curfew,so I'll sleep out,she said and left the room.

She went down and there was a black limosine,the front glass wasn't tinted so she could recognize William driver but the back glass was dark and she couldn't see him.

Meanwhile inside the car,William who was looking at his watch ready to go find Alexa looked up only to see her looking at the driver...,damn she looked really hot.

He was lost looking at her and didn't realise when the driver got down and opened the door for her.

She thanked him and sat down beside William,who didn't look up at her.

She stared at William,it was a lie if she said she didn't know the charm he had on her gender..he was really a charmer even without trying..,she hadn't been in a relationship since the incident and she wasn't intending to but she couldn't deny William charismatic and charming way always made her smile,and she liked him.

Though she wasn't sure if romantically..,she still didn't want any relationship for now,or maybe never.

You know you've not said anything about your fling,she asked wanting answers.

What have my sis done to you,he said with a laugh.

Nothing am just really curious,you consider me a close friend so why don't I know about it.

Close friend..,that was the more reason he didn't tell her.

I'll tell you when the time is right,he said.

You sure?..

Hmm

He didn't say anything for a while as the limosine took off.

By the way you look really good,she said and his heart skipped a beat as he stared her her,her once pink cherry lips were now painted red and made her look really matured.
