Bethany's Pov.
"Hi, Boys. I'm back." Barbie said and I could literally feel my heart crack in my thoracic cavity.
Boys??!
I turned to the 'boys' to check if I was missing something and with the way they looked, I was. And it wasn't a small one.
I couldn't help but feel itchy. Not itchy itchy, but my body itched to disappear from the room immediately.
Like Tristan could sense my discomfort, his softly tapped my thigh, willing me to look at him, which I did. Hesitantly.
He nodded softly, asif telling me to relax, which I was trying to do before Barbie interrupted again.
"Who is this beauty?" She asked, taking light steps towards me, her heels clicking softly on the tiles.
"Hi, I'm Lauren." She said, stretching her manicured fingers towards me for a handshake .
I had planned to return it, but Maria was pacing angrily in my mind, filled with unbridled jealousy, so I kept my hands in place, pretty sure they were gonna turn to claws as soon as I make contact with her.
