My Evil Boy Toy

We still have a few days to start the project so today there will be a welcome party for Kyle in Queen\'s.

The party is a formal dinner so I went to Azalea to look for a dress to wear. I found a simple dress that fits the occasion but still needs some altering, so I decided to go to a nearby cafe to wait.

I was sitting in the corner not visible to anyone when two familiar figures came in. I was shocked when I saw who it was.

It\'s Kyle and Peggy. Peggy was clinging to Kyle\'s arm and they looked so happy. They were chatting and laughing with each other. Kyle sometimes leaned towards Peggy and whispered in her ear, Peggy will giggle at it.

What the hell is happening? Is she cheating on Jayden now? Is Kyle trying to take my friend from my friend? How could he do this?

I put on my sunglasses and my hoodie jacket.. I covered myself with the menu when they sat on the table in front of me.

"Peg, aren\'t you coming home? I missed you." Kyle said.

"I missed you too. I really wanted to be with you but I can\'t. You know Jayden\'s so overprotective." Peggy said.

They have their own house? I can\'t believe this.

"I should be your priority Peggy. I just came back." Kyle said in a sweet voice.

Peggy chuckled. "You are. But you know I can\'t leave Jayden for now. So please understand."

She\'s planning to leave Jayden? After he bought a house for her. My blood boiled and my heart felt like it was stabbed. She is my friend. How could she do this to me? How could she take away Kyle from me? Is Kyle doing this to take revenge on me?

My chest hurts so much. Why? I don\'t love him anymore. Why does it feel like my heart is being crushed again? I can\'t take it anymore.

I stood up and ran outside the cafe. I called Azalea to deliver the dress to Queen\'s then I went home. I didn\'t notice I was crying. Why would I cry again for him? Is it because Peggy is my friend? And I felt betrayed? Is it just pride again? No. It hurt so much because I\'m still in love with him.

After a year without him, I thought I had moved on. But no, it\'s still him. My heart still yearns for him. I want him because I longed for his touch. I was jealous of Lily because I wanted to be the only girl for him. I want him to be mine. I was just too proud again to accept my feelings.

Will I leave it again like this? Will I let him slip away again from me? Will I let another girl again take him away from me before I convey my feelings for him?

No! I won\'t let that happen again. I\'ll do everything to make him mine this time. First, I have to talk to Xander and give the ring back. I\'ll make it right this time.

I prepared for the dinner party and did my best so Kyle will be mesmerized by my beauty. I\'ll make sure he can\'t take his eyes off me. I know Lily will be there, and then Peggy. I\'m sure a lot of girls will be there as well. I have to be the prettiest girl tonight.

"Emily are you ready?" It was Peggy.

I felt a little awkward towards her after seeing her with Kyle. She went inside and walked towards me.

"You\'re beautiful! I\'m sure Kyle won\'t take his eyes off you." She said.

I\'m not sure but she sounded sincere. Then Jayden came.

"Peg, let\'s go. Emily, come on! I\'ll escort you girls." He said, smiling.

Peggy ran towards him and jumped into his arms. They kissed.

It doesn\'t seem fake to me. I can feel their love for each other. I\'ll shrug it off for the meantime and will talk to Peggy later.

I walked towards them and Jayden smiled at me.

"Wow Emily, you\'re stunning. But you know my eyes are for Peggy only." He said.

I rolled my eyes and clung my arm to his.

We went down to the hall we\'re the party was being held. You can see all the people downstairs. They were all from the rich and famous. The King of Flousia is also invited so the party was really huge. Media Tech also got exclusive coverage of the party.

Aside from the welcome party for Kyle, tonight Luke will also announce the hospital project officially.

I asked Jayden and Peggy to go down first and I followed. I was looking for Kyle but it seems that the guest of honor hasn\'t arrived yet.

At the end of the stairs, Xander was there, waiting for me. He was smiling when he saw me.

"You\'re gorgeous!" He said while kissing my hand.

"Thank you." I answered politely.

The party started already but I haven\'t seen Kyle yet. My eyes were searching for him. I\'m getting anxious. I haven\'t seen Lily as well.

Am I going to be heart broken again for the second time by the same man? I was in that thought when someone tapped my shoulder. When I turned around it was Peggy\'s grandfather, the king.

I was surprised. I always saw him with Peggy and Jayden, but we never had a chance to talk to each other.

"Your Majesty! It\'s an honor." I said, greeting him with a curtsy.

"You\'re Emily right? Friend of Margaret?" He asked.

"Indeed, I am." I answered politely and smiled.

"You\'re beautiful, my dear. You look like a queen." He said.

I don\'t understand what he meant but I was happy with his compliment.

"Thank you, your majesty." I said.

Then we heard a sound of applause. Everyone was looking at the entrance.

"I guess the guest of honor is here." The king said.

When I looked in the direction where everyone\'s attention is, I saw Kyle and he was with Lily. My heart felt it was being crumpled. I wanted to run to him and tell him how I feel. Why didn\'t he ask me? I should be the one beside him.

I didn\'t notice that a tear fell from my eyes. Good thing, Xander was dragged by some businessmen so he didn\'t see me crying.

"Don\'t cry. If you love him, fight for him." Says the man beside me.

"How did you -" I looked at the king, he was smiling at me.

"I can see it in your eyes. You were also looking for him the moment you entered the hall." He said. "Love without a doubt and always trust your heart."

Then he wiped my tears on my cheeks.

"Come on! I\'ll be your escort for tonight." He said while offering his arm.

I smiled and put my hand to the king\'s arm then he guided me where Kyle was.
