Chapter 12: Twins (2)
Sabrina didn't miss his unease. She took another step forward, completely invading Ben's personal space. "So, what do you say? It'll be fun. Hugo's going to be there too." She played with a strand of Ben's hair, a gesture meant to be affectionate but mostly a way to assert dominance.
The mention of Hugo seemed to reassure Ben a bit. Hugo was his friend, and the prospect of having someone familiar at the party eased his nervousness slightly. He managed a timid smile. "Alright, I guess it could be fun..."
Sabrina smiled triumphantly. "Perfect! I knew you'd say yes." She gave him one last lingering look before turning away. "See you later, Ben. Get ready to have some fun.~"
Ben watched her leave, and once she was out of sight, he finally let himself relax, letting out a deep sigh of relief.
After a few moments of thought, Ben turned toward the path Kaiser had taken. Just then, he received a text.
*[Kaiser: Look at how you're shaking, you're such a wimp 😂]*
Ben laughed. "Asshole..." he muttered to himself.
Tonight was definitely shaping up to be more eventful for him than expected. Maybe he'd finally wash away the shame of that diarrhea incident!
