Make him regret crossing me

Eyeing Elijah, Peach wanted so desperately to read his thoughts because his expression was completely blank; there was no emotion evident on liis face. Nervous and uneasy, Peaclı reached for the glass of cosmopolitan cocktail, lifted it to her lips, and drank the entire thing down without hesitation.

And as soon as the liquor entered her mouth, she felt hot liquid fill her throat, and she could taste the vodka, and immediately, she started coughing violently, clutching her throat as she felt the burning sensation.

Instantly, Elijah stood up from his seat and placed his palm on her back to rub it soothingly,” Hey, hey, Peach, relax. Deep breaths. Take slow, steady breaths.”

Once Peach stopped coughing, her chest heaved with heavy breaths, and her hand clutched onto Elijah’s arm to keep her balance.

After waiting for her to finally regain control of herself and settle down a bit, Elijah mumbled, “You good?”

Peach simply nodded her head in reply while wiping a few stray tears away with the back of her hand.

A scoff left Jessica’s lips as she narrowed her eyes and said snidely, “Elijah, can we talk somewhere that is not here? I think what I have to offer is worth way more than this pathetic excuse of an act.”

A warm feeling spread through Peach as a sense of dizziness and fatigue hit her hard, and she felt the urge to lean into Elijah and rest her head on his shoulder, and just like that she found herself leaning against him, her head resting comfortably on his arm.

“Hey, little buddy…” Elijah whispered as he wrapped his hand around her shoulders and pulled her closer to him, allowing her to lean against his chest. “Do you even drink?”

“No,” Peach giggled softly as the alcohol buzzed inside of her, “I have never… never drink… Today is my first! A grin formed on Elijah’s face as he chuckled lightly and rubbed her back gently, “Yeah, I figured.” Suddenly, Peach raised her head, looking into Elijah’s eyes, pouted cutely, and mumbled,” Why am I giving all my first to you and doing it with you…”

Hearing those words, Jessica’s mouth lightly hung open, and she stared at Peach with bulging eyes full of disbelief.
