"Oh, where did you go?" Ali asked.
I walk straight to the seat I was sitting on before. I bit my lip and got the unattended shot on our table. Ali and Bry laughed slightly.
I glanced at Erato, he has this serious look on his face while his group mate there also offered him a shot. He's standing while Jax is on his seat. My older brother and I met eyes and I immediately averted my eyes from our gaze.
"Where did you go?" asked Ali.
"Uhm, I just went home to the villa for a while."
He sniffed at what I said and nodded slightly. While in my mind what happened earlier still remains.
"Go home to your villa." Erato commanded me.
I couldn’t look at him as his hands were wrapped around my waist, partially enclosing me here in the trunk of the tree.
"Not yet."
"And why not?"
"Why not?" I asked him rudely. He smiled without any humor. He looks at me strongly and eloquently.
"Stubborn now, are we?"
My lips protruded. I averted my gaze from him.
