Forever Mine (Joe & Ella 2)

As if in sync we all turned around to see Charlie, Joe, some of the other guys and a crowd of slutty girls walk over to the bar. They were drunk and rowdy, reminding me of the first night I’d seen the group, the night I met Joe. I sucked in a breath as I watched a blonde girl in a cheap clinging red dress rub her hand up Joe’s chest and gaze up at him, he grabbed her round the waist pulling her further into him before moving his hand down and squeezing her ass. I felt sick.

I turned my back on him and found all four pairs of eyes staring at me.

“You okay Ella?” Chris asked looking like he was attending a funeral.

“I’m fine. He’s single he can do what, or who he wants.” I said trying to convince myself and them that I really didn’t care.

“I don’t even want to go back over there. I think Charlie has hired the girls by the hour. They’re all just gross.” Max groaned. “I’d rather stay here with you guys.”

“You can stay with us as long as you want. I hope Joe and Charlie get their money’s worth.” Robyn sent evil glares their way, but I just kept my head forward and painted on my smile.

“Hey, guys! Don’t let them spoil our night okay. I haven’t been out with you all for ages and it’s my first night out with Ed. Let’s pretend they don’t exist and have another shot.”

“Hear, Hear.” Ed agreed and off he went to fill up his tray again at the bar.

“Golden Chris, that man of yours is golden.” I sighed.

“Hold on to him.” Robyn replied. “The good ones don’t come along very often.” She gave me a knowing look as if to say, and here’s Max your good guy to save you from the shit show behind you.

I thought I’d done a pretty good job of keeping my cool and trying to save the night despite the howls and shouts coming from behind us by the bar. When Robyn and I headed off for the ladies an hour later we were both drunk and I was growing weary, ready to call it a night. I couldn’t keep the façade up for much longer.

As we opened the door to the ladies we were met by a cackling of laughter and the group of girls that had come into the bar with Joe and Charlie were all hogging the mirrors and discussing their partners for the night. Red dress slut was grinning like a fucking idiot and I wanted to turn around and walk back out again but Robyn grabbed my arm to stop me.

“Move!” She slammed her shoulder into red dress slut, making her shriek and almost fall over.

“Watch it bitch.” Red dress slut spat back. I felt sorry for her already. Robyn was looking for an excuse to unleash her fury and calling her a bitch was like a red rag to a bull.

“Listen slut, why don’t you take your skanky ass and fuck right off. Nobody wants you here tonight.” Robyn was right up in her face. Even I felt nervous.

“The guys want us here and Joe wants me here. I’m no slut but you know what, I’m gonna suck him and fuck him so hard tonight he’ll never want to let me go.” She laughed at herself. I felt my stomach turn over. How disgusting was she!

“He wouldn’t touch you with a barge pole.” Robyn sneered at her. “You’re a dirty fucking whore.”

“Whatever you say sweetheart.” She grinned smugly, “He can’t wait to fuck me, and he likes it dirty as fuck too I hear.”

I literally could not take another minutes of this. I walked into a cubicle and locked the door. Five minutes later after listening to Robyn go toe to toe with red dress whore I heard a soft knock on the cubicle door.

“You can come out now chick they’ve left.”

I opened the door to find Robyn looking tearfully at me.

“I need to get out of here. I can’t do this Robyn. If he wants to get laid by the whole bar he can, but I don’t want to see it happening.” I was holding back my tears but I knew I couldn’t keep it up for much longer.

“Come on let’s get our bags and go somewhere else, or we can head home, whatever you want Hun.”

We headed out of the ladies and towards our table. Right next to our table stood Joe with his tongue down red dress whore’s throat.

“Bastard.” Robyn was furious. “He’s doing it on purpose Ella.” I gasped holding my stomach, every inch of my body shaking now.

Red dress whore broke off the kiss and grabbed Joe’s hand winking at him and pulling him towards the back corridor, I knew where she was taking him. They were going to fuck. He was gonna fuck her under the same roof as I was. He was unbelievable. I grabbed Robyn, staggering backwards as I tried to steady myself. I saw Max grab Joe and start talking to him but I wasn’t sticking around to watch this any longer. I marched over to our table, grabbed my bag and headed for the door.

“Wait, Ella wait. We’ll come with you.”
