| The End Is Only the Beginning Chapter 14: Making A Move A week after Tiffani announced that she would divorce Edward, Sebastian was packing up his things in his room. A few days ago the paper work had come through and it was now official, Kathryn was no longer his sister. This was both a good and bad thing. Gone was the weirdness about them being related and fucking. Although this was never a major problem as far as Sebastian was concerned. The bad part was they would no longer be living together, which meant it would be harder to see each other. Especially since Tiffani made it damn clear that she wanted him no where near her or her precious daughter. Since the announcement Sebastian had moved in with his father in a penthouse on fifth avenue. He had barely spoken with Kathryn either because she was busy with Michael or because of how they had left things between them. It had been awkward to say the least. After Tiffani had arrived home Sebastian had left immediately to go find his father and find out what the hell was going on. He hadn't been back to the house since. When he arrived one of the maids had told him that Ms. Mertieul (as she was now known) was out for the afternoon. Sebastian could now collect his things without worrying that Tiffani would show up to bitch about what an asshole his father was. He had briefly wandered into Kathryn's room but she too was gone. As he looked around he couldn't help but miss her a little. He had packed up most of his things when he was interrupted by a familiar voice "where you at least going to say good-bye?" Sebastian looked up to see Kathryn leaning against his door frame wearing a short, black, mini skirt and a small smile. He returned it "I was thinking about it. Where you been?" She walked in slowly examining the boxes he was packing "having lunch with Michael. I can't believe they really got divorced. It's almost sad." "Yeah you can no longer say your fucking your step brother." Kathryn gave him a sarcastic smile "funny. So where are you staying?" "Dad's old penthouse, until he finds another place. Why miss me already?" "Maybe" she says as she climbed on his desk and leaned back suggestively, opening her legs slightly. "I'll definitely miss sneaking into your room during the middle of the night." Sebastian smiled as he approached her, a wicked grin on his face "fucking you all night until I'm too exhausted to go to my own room. How about you?" "Those morning showers come to mind, or the quickies before dinner" he smiled at the memory as he let his hands wander up her smooth, bare thighs. They eventually got to her underwear and he slipped two fingers inside her heat. He wasn't surprised to find her already dripping. She gasped slightly as he moved his fingers in and out of her. Sebastian kissed her and whispered "Michael not doing it for you princess?" She kissed him hard "quit being a dick and fuck me already." He smiled, tore of her panties and pulled her closer. Her small, nimble hands undid his pants and reached inside pulling out his hard dick. As she does this he wraps one arm around her waist and lets the other hand unbutton part of her shirt so he had access to her breasts. In an instant he thrusts into her making her squeal. Pulling her closer he frantically thrusts into her alternating between kissing her mouth and sucking her breasts. Kathryn eagerly meets him thrust for thrust moaning his name and begging him to go faster, to make her come. Both of them are still fully dressed which makes the friction even greater. After twenty minutes or so Sebastian can feel his own orgasm approach so he lets his thumb wander down to her clit so she could ride it. He watches with delight as she bits her lip and throws her head back moaning loudly. As expected her walls are soon clenching around him and he finally lets himself go and comes inside her. Kathryn falls back against him and sighs. She's still shaking slightly and he loves the feeling of her vulnerable in his arms. When she finally speaks he barely hears her "oh Sebastian I am going to miss her." At this Sebastian pulls away and looks at her trying to figure out if she means it or its just her orgasm talking. "You have Michael" She snickers slightly "well that's not really the same thing is it?" Sebastian shakes his head and walks away not really sure what his problem is. "What's wrong with you? Didn't you enjoy yourself?" He turned back angry "of course I did. It's just that I don't like playing seconds to Michael." Kathryn fixed her skirt and jumped off the desk "who said you were? You can drop the jealous routine because-" "I am not jealous!" "Yeah right" she laughed. "Ever since I've started going out with Michael you've been acting weird, accusing me of using you." He shook his head and replied coldly "that's because you are. You go and spend all your time with Captain America and then rush over here for a fuck when he can't satisfy you!" "Actually" she said in that controlled voice she used right before she said something devastating "he satisfies me just fine. In fact I think you could learn a few things from him." This stung Sebastian just like she hoped "then why don't you go fuck him and leave me alone. I'm done with you, I'm officially bored." Kathryn tried to keep the pain from her face but it was almost too hard "are you? I thought you cared about me?" He stared at her coldly desperately wanting to hurt her as much as she had hurt him "you thought wrong. I never cared about you Kathryn you were just another good fuck like all the rest. I admit you were the ultimate conquest, but its done with. What made you think you were any different?" At this Kathryn could almost feel the tears well up in her eyes but she refused to cry, she refused to give him the satisfaction. "I don't know, I guess I was wrong. So why don't you get your shit and get out of my house, lucky for you we don't have to see each other again." Before Sebastian could get the last word Kathryn walked out of the room slamming the door. Frustrated at her and mad at himself Sebastian threw one of the boxes against the door. He wanted to go after, god he really did but he couldn't. He didn't know what to say. He had truly gone to far this time and he had no idea how to fix it. * * * * * * Around the same time Annette was getting ready to see Chris. As she came down the stairs and grabbed her purse her father appeared carrying the mail. "Here you go honey this came for you" he said handing her a couple of letters. One from a friend back home in Kansas and the other a bill for a magazine. "Thanks dad. What's that?" She said referring to the white envelop in his hand. He turned it over "it's an invitation to a party Tiffani Merteuil is throwing." Annette winced at the mention of Merteuil "throw it out." "Well I don't know it's for a benefit to raise money for charity." Annette sighed "dad forget about it if it has anything to do with Sebastian and his crazy family." It had been over a week since she had seen Kathryn or Sebastian and for that she was grateful, she really didn't need anything else reminding her of the terrible twosome. "Well I doubt Sebastian would be there" "Why? It is his house" she told him as she grabbed her coat of the rack. Dean Hardgrove looked over at his daughter surprised "not anymore. I thought you would of heard by now." "What?" "The Valmont's are divorcing, apparently he was cheating on her. Sebastian and his father moved out. To tell the truth I'm surprised Tiffani's throwing a party now. Oh well I guess people have different ways of dealing with things." This news all came as quite a surprise to Annette. She couldn't help but chuckle a little. This certainly put Kathryn and Sebastian in an interesting situation. They could now be free to be together publicly. She snickered to herself, yeah like that would ever happen. "Well I'm not that surprised they didn't have the most healthy relationship." Under her breath she muttered "and neither do there children." "I guess your right, I never do recall them being in the same place at once. Any way now you can go to the party, since Sebastian won't be there. You could be my date." The idea of spending an evening at the Valmont home still didn't appeal to Annette. There were to many memories, besides she really wanted to avoid running into Kathryn if at all possible. "Umm I don't know dad. I really don't want to spend an evening with a bunch of society people, especially Kathryn." Her father looked up at her "really? I thought you two had put all that behind you." Not until hell freezes over she thought to herself. "We have it's just...strange. Let me think about it?" "Sure where you off to?" "To see Chris I'll be back shortly." Annette went down to the prison and waited for Chris to appear. She made it a point to visit him at least twice a week. He finally came into the room with a smile on his face "it's so good to see you. I have the best news" She returned the smile "what?" "I'm getting released, well temporarily until the trial. My lawyer says I'll be released this weekend." This was wonderful news to Annette "oh that's great! I can't wait, what do you want to do first?" Chris's smile fell "well finding your ex boyfriend and his sister and beating the crap out of them comes to mind." "Chris you can't, they'll just send you back in" Annette said calmly. After Annette had told him her theory about Kathryn and Sebastian being responsible for his arrest he had been swearing revenge. She told him over and over again that it would accomplish nothing and that he should focus on getting found not guilty. He shook his head "I know, I know baby it just makes me so angry that they did this to me and there getting away with it." "Well they'll get there's eventually" Chris scoffed "oh yeah they'll go to hell, big fucking deal." This comment startled Annette slightly. He had never been so nasty before "I didn't mean that. I just meant everything would work itself out." "I know I didn't mean to snap at you I'm sorry" "It's ok" she said relaxing. "So any ideas on what to do this weekend." Annette smiled as she wracked her brain "well..." All of a sudden an idea came to her. She remembered her fathers invitation to the Valmont party. She could just picture Kathryn's face when she walked into the party on the arm of Chris. At this thought Annette laughed slightly. "What?" Chris asked "How would you like to go to a party?" - to be continued The End Is Only the Beginning Chapter 15: Party Crashers The following week Tiffani Merteuil threw her annual charity dinner. What started out as a peaceful night would quickly end in disaster. From the beginning Kathryn was on edge. She really hated her mother's parties but this one in particular bugged her. The charity events where the worst. The people were even more pompous than usual and she was forced into being the golden girl for the evening. In truth that was not what was really bugging her. No, it was her former stepbrother Sebastian that put her in the mood she was in. Although it had been over a week ago since there confrontation she was still bothered by it. It wasn't just the way he treated her but what he said to her about never really caring for her. She had meant something to him hadn't she? She wasn't like the other girls who he used and abused. What they had was different or so she thought. In the end Sebastian had ended up being just like every other guy she fucked. Except Michael, he was different. He honestly cared about her unlike him. Michael was different from her previous boyfriends he wasn't a drunk like Court or a rapist like Chris. No he was a genuine nice guy who loved and adored her and she would be crazy to give him up. Now that Sebastian had moved out she wouldn't have to see him again and he couldn't ruin her new relationship. She just had to stop thinking about him. He didn't deserve her. Kathryn had found the perfect dress for the evening. It was a dark purple, strapless gown that fit her like a glove. She knew she looked incredible and was reminded when Michael arrived. "My god look at you, you're gorgeous." "Thank you" she said sweetly and kissed him on the cheek. The one downside of Michael was that Kathryn had to put on the same good girl act she used with everyone else. He had no idea what the real Kathryn was like and if he did her guess was that he would freak. Unlike Sebastian who always encouraged her bad side. She once again told herself to forget about him. An hour into the party Kathryn was already bored out of her mind. She talked with everyone and was sweet as could be but she knew she was going to bust any second. Anytime she tried to duck out for cigarette or a bump of coke her mother would find her and ask what she was doing. It was absolute torture. She was praying something exciting would happen and soon. She got her wish when Sebastian arrived. Kathryn was discussing her plans for college with one of her mother's friends. She was distracted when she heard someone ask, "Is that Sebastian?" Kathryn immediatly whirled her head around and found him. He walked into the room wearing a dark suit. He appeared to be looking for someone when his eyes finally rested on Kathryn. They stared at each other from across the room for a moment. He then started to head towards her and she was tempted to run the other way but she stayed where she was waiting for him to reach her. When he got with in hearing distance she asked, "what are you doing here? I know my mother didn't invite you." "You think? I need to talk to you" he glared at the man she was speaking with "alone." "Excuse me" the older gentleman said as he left them. Kathryn waited expectantly "what?" Sebastian looked around "not here, in you room." Her momentary happiness at seeing him vanished when he started ordering her around "no. I have nothing to say to you. We're over remember?" "Fine" Sebastian said calmly "if you don't go into that bedroom with me now I will make the biggest scene imaginable." "You wouldn't dare" "Wanna bet?" Kathryn's eyes went large; she knew he wouldn't hesitate humiliating her "fine but make it quick." She quickly went to her room with Sebastian following, praying no one noticed. When she got to the room she closed the door and turned to him in full anger mode "ok were alone. What the hell do you-" Kathryn was suddenly cut off when Sebastian quickly pulled her into a kiss. It felt good but she wasn't doing this with him. Her life was going fine without him. Kathryn pushed him off with force and wiped her mouth on her arm "no. No fucking way am I doing this with you again." "Kathryn you have to let me-" "No I don't have to do anything! Your not even suppose to be here." "I had to talk to you. I wanted to apologize for what I said before. Your right I was jealous of Michael. I just kept remembering what Annette said to me about you using me and I guess I just snapped. I didn't mean a word of it, I do care about you." Kathryn studied him trying to tell if he was bullshitting her or not. He did look sincere, which managed to piss her off even more. How dare he burst in hear now acting all noble and caring, just when everything in her life was starting to fall into place. She didn't need this, she didn't need him. "Are you done?" she asked coldly. "Yes" "Good because I have some things to say. You are a selfish, arrogant, asshole" she spat at him as she slowly began to advance on him. She would take a step forward and he would take a step back bringing him closer to the door. "My life is going great, I have the perfect boyfriend, I'm going to the best school next year and my whole shitty past is being shipped off to sing sing in a couple of weeks. I don't need you coming in hear and ruining everything, because you're sorry. Big fucking deal" at this point she was trying to keep from screaming at him. Sebastian was now pressed firmly against the door and Kathryn was only inches from his face. "Who do you think you are?" she screamed. Needless to say Sebastian was more than a little surprised by all of this. He was about to say the only thing he could think of that would make this right "I am in- Before he could get the rest of the statement out Kathryn shocked him by pulling into a kiss. He eagerly kissed her back, wrapping one hand around her bare neck and the other around her waist. There tongues crashed into each other's mouths and fought fiercely with one another as they bruised each other's lips. Kathryn didn't know what had come over her. She was just staring into is face and thinking about her perfect future and how she desperately wanted to escape. She needed him, she needed him so badly and she had just kissed him without thinking. Kathryn had forgiven him for what he said to her as soon as she spotted him from across the room. She knew he cared about her, which is what made her so mad. He shouldn't care about her, it just made things harder. She could never be with him like that. They continued to kiss passionately barely coming up for air. Sebastian's hands roamed over her body making her wet and ready for him. She briefly wondered if they could get away with a quickie without anyone noticing that she was gone. As Kathryn felt his hand on her back playing with her zipper she realized she didn't care anymore. She moaned into his mouth and let her hand wander down to his pants. She unzipped them and pushed her hand inside. Grabbing onto him she began to pump him while never breaking away from him mouth. Sebastian was about to pull Kathryn over to the bed when there was a sudden knock at the door. "Kathryn what are you doing? We have guests and Michael is looking for you." The couple immediately froze and looked at each other expectantly. Finally Kathryn found her voice "I'm just fixing my dress mother. I'll be out in a second." "Fine, just hurry up where serving dinner soon." They waited until they heard her departing footsteps before either one spoke. Kathryn pulled out of his grasp "I-I have to go." Sebastian pulled her back "Kathryn wait." "What? What do you want from me Sebastian?" He looked like he was about to say something, but then he gave her a curious look "why did you kiss me?" She shrugged "because" Smirking he asked "because why?" She stepped closer and returned the smirk "because I wanted to. I have to go." "Fine" he sighed. As Kathryn opened the door her said, "by the way you look really beautiful tonight." "Thank you" Kathryn put on her best smile as she rejoined the party. She greeted a few guest and then felt Michael's arm wrap around her "there you are, I've been looking every where for you." She smiled "I was fixing my dress." "Oh well I think you missed something, it's unzipped a little in the back." "What?" Kathryn asked quickly touching her back. She had forgotten all about that, damn Sebastian. Michael zipped it up "there you go, all fixed." Kathryn smiled "thanks I don't know how it got like that." "No problem" he glanced over her shoulder "hey is that your brother? What's he doing hear?" She quickly spun around and saw Sebastian talking to two women "yeah that's him. I have no idea what he's doing hear. Charity really isn't Sebastian's thing." "Well lets go say hello to him" Michael said taking her hand before she could protest. As the couple approached him the two women left. Sebastian looked up to see Michael heading towards him practically pulling Kathryn along. "Sebastian, how's it going?" he asked offering him his hand. Sebastian shook it "not to bad, yourself?" "I'm fine. I'm surprised to see you hear you know after everything." Kathryn shot a look over at Sebastian curious as to how he would explain himself. "Well my father thought it would be a good idea to come. You know show everyone we didn't end on bad terms." Michael smiled "that's good. I know Kathryn is probably happy to see you." She smiled at Sebastian "yes it's nice to see you again Sebastian. Things have been quiet around hear without you." "Have they?" he smiled and she smiled back. Suddenly Michael asked "have you told him out news?" Kathryn looked over at him startled "umm not yet." Sebastian looked at them expectantly "what news?" "This isn't the best time- "Nonsense, it's perfect. Kathryn and I- He was interrupted when the murmur of the party became quiet. The three looked up to see what everyone was looking at. Dean Hardgrove had arrived and right beside him was his daughter on the arm of Chris. All three where wearing festive smiles as if this was the most normal thing in the world. "What the hell are they doing hear?" Sebastian asked glaring at the couple. At the sight of Chris Kathryn's stomach turned. He was out of jail and in her home of all places. "Didn't you hear?" Michael asked. "He's out on bail until the trial." "What?" Kathryn asked her voice shaky "they just let him out?" Michael put a possessive arm around Kathryn "don't worry he can't hurt you." "I know" she said her eyes locked on Sebastian who was staring over at her with concern. "I'm going to go talk with your new guests" Sebastian said as he headed over. "I'm going too" Kathryn and Michael both followed him over to the couple. "Well if it isn't the virgin and the kiddie pornographer. What the fuck are you two doing hear?" Annette gave him an amused smile "I could ask the same of you Sebastian. I thought you didn't live here anymore?" "He's welcome, your not" Kathryn glared at her. "But I am" she held up one of the invitations. "I know you would hate to make a scene Kathryn so why don't you just let us enjoy the party." "Why don't you fuck off" Sebastian said eyeing Chris. "Sebastian just ignore them. No one wants them hear anyways." Before either Annette or Sebastian could retort Tiffani announced that dinner was being served. Chris took Kathryn by the hand and led he to the table in the grand dinning room. There were three large, long table set up. Kathryn, Chris and Tiffani sat at the first. Sebastian took a seat across from Kathryn. He all but studied her throughout the first course of the meal. No one seemed to notice except Kathryn, who would occasionally stare back at him. After the second course Tiffani stood up and cleared her throat. Everyone in the room was silent as she told them she had an announcement to make. Sebastian rolled his eyes at the upcoming speech he knew his stepmother was going to make. Kathryn grimaced because she knew what was coming next and that she had no way of stopping it. "Ladies and Gentlemen today is a glorious night not only because we have raised so much money thanks to your generosity, but for personnel reasons as well." The crowed was silent as they waited for her to finish. Kathryn closed her eyes knowing what her mother was about to say. "I would like to announce the engagement of my daughter Kathryn Mertueil to Michael Perry." - to be continued |
