Confessions and Olivia (Olivia #2) Read Online Free PDF Page B

in the most expensive designer dress there is and still feel like crap. I just want to be home. Everyone else looks beautiful tonight though. Elise chos e a black sleeveless lace dress and black bowler hat. Sophia has a red loose dress on with matching heels and her red lipstick and Tyler looks amazing as usual in a tight fitted light denim shirt, chinos and brown brogues.
    I feel tipsy already with the shots I was made to have before we even left the house. But in all fairness I needed them for some energy and to calm my nerves. The thought of being around so many people tonight brought on a little anxiety.
    But now I’m on a drinking roll and I’m not stopping. Now I’m out I’m going to make the most of this night. Plus it takes away a lot of pain the more I drink.
    The more I drink the less I think.
    Tyler has ordered me to scan the room for "potentials" as he orders drinks with my sisters .
    I’m not looking for any potentials, obviously, but I’d rather put on a poker face than have Tyler go on at me.
    We finally find an empty table to place our drinks on. This club is amazing and so big. They have pulled off a very impressive old casino style club. Everything red, white, black and green. The Tables are in an L shape, with amazing views of the whole night club. Roulette wheels, poker, games tables, slot machines they have the lot. It's not as glamorous as the one I went to with Calvin in Vegas obviously, but it's for fun. They also have gorgeous dancers in show cases behind the huge oak curved bar. The decor is elegant all the same, with chandeliers over our tables and light music playing in the background. There is also a separate part of the club for dancing. I know that’s where we will end up as the night progresses.
    I keep scanning the room while I continue to drink my vodka and lemonade from a straw. I’m not really listening to what the others are talking about. I know it's bad that I’m not socializing but I’m just not interested in making any kind of talk. My intention in coming out tonight was to get drunk, forgetting for a while, and then go to bed .
    As we sit down J amie finally makes his entrance along with Ryan, Sophia’s boyfriend. Great. I roll my eyes at his casual approach while he holds a drink in his hand. Who does he think he is, James bond?
    "You had to be fashionable late didn’t you, drama queen." Tyler reprimands Jamie playfully bringing him in for a kiss.
    "Happy birthday Jamie." I stand kissing him twice on both cheeks.
    "Thank you Olivia. Damn you look hot tonight, are you on the prowl now you’re single?"
    Tyler taps Jamie’s shoulder to make him back down but I don't mind.
    "Hey you never no." I wink, falling back into my seat off balance.
    I nod to Ryan in acknowledgment, feeling I have to, with a tipsy head. He warily takes a seat next to me.
    "How are you?" He asks leaning over in some expensive suit.
    I look at him blinking. "You talking to me?"
    "Of course I am."
    "Oh, right. Yeah I’m doing Okay. Why do you ask? Shouldn’t you be on Calvin’s side?" I scoff a little loudly, downing the rest of my drink.
    "Olivia, I’m not on any body’s side... I just wanted to ask how you were. Sophia told me what happened."
    "Ha, I bet she did. Have you spoke to Calvin, Ryan? Your friend’s right?"
    I ask bitchy but inside I’m a little hopeful. Hopeful to hear any little thing about him.
    Ryan shakes his head looking into his bourbon glass trying to avoid eye contact with me no doubt. "You know, Olivia, Calvin doesn’t hold anyone close to his heart, he holds them at arm’s length. It’s nothing personal, that's just the way he is."
    "You think." I continue to drunkenly jeer.
    “How long have you know him, Ryan?”
    He stiffens up at my questions, it’s odd. “I’ve known Calvin since he was twenty one. I ’m a little older than him. I met him in Vegas, it was his first poker tournament and he smashed it, such a pro from the off. Obviously we all wanted to get to know
