before leaving the room and taking my food with me. I was going to eat my breakfast in bed where no one could bug me.
“Willow wait.” Tristan was jogging down the hallway to catch up with me.
“Wait for what! You guys to tell me more things I can and can’t do with my life? No thanks!”
I stepped into my room and closed the door behind me. Well, more like I slammed the door in his face. The two of them made my blood boil sometimes. I don’t even know why the hell I’m here. Eventually someone was going to have to give me some answers or I’d dig them up myself.
CHAPTER FIVE
TOBIAS
That didn’t go well. I had planned out the entire day and this was definitely not how I'd seen the morning going. I sent Tristan after her to do some damage control but by the echo of a slamming door I doubt it went very well.
Willow did have a point. She has been treated like a prisoner here for something that isn’t even her fault. Truth is I don’t even know why I’m keeping her here exactly; but, for some reason I can’t explain, I’m drawn to her.
“Tristan! Get down here.” I needed his help planning a party for Willow.
I grabbed my phone from my back pocket and dialed Micky. I needed a favor and he was the only person I knew who could pull through. The call took all of ten minutes and by the time I hung up Tristan was already lounging against the counter top.
“What are you hollering about? In case you didn’t notice I’m trying to calm a rather pissed off blueberry.”
“That’s why I called. I need help setting up a party for her at Micky’s.”
“Do I look like a party fairy to you? What do you want me to do, wave my magic wand?”
“Ok, if you don’t help I’ll tell Amelia it’s a costume party and I’m pretty sure she has plenty of outfits already picked out for you.” I grinned at the expression on his face.
“Bippity boppity boo.”
“Yeah, that’s what I thought.”
I clapped my brother on the shoulder before grabbing my jacket and heading out the door. I had some errands to run today and luckily for me it was cloudy so I didn’t have to worry about the sun bothering me too much.
First stop was to a small boutique in town. I’ve never been there before but it’s the only place that looked like it had half decent clothes in it. I wanted tonight to be perfect and that would include the right dress.
It took about ten minutes but I found the perfect dress. I gave the sales clerk my credit card and told her I’d be by to pick it up in a few hours. She even threw in a pair of shoes to match. I thanked her before leaving then headed to Micky’s pub.
Micky was already there which didn’t really surprise me since he was always there. The place cleaned up pretty nicely. The tables were moved out to the back and black lights were installed all over the room. Things were coming together quite nicely.
“So who is the mystery girl?”
Micky came out from behind the bar sporting a smile for the first time in a long time. This was the first time he has even heard about a woman in my life, let alone getting to meet one.
“It’s not what you think. She’s just a friend.”
“I’ve known you a long time Tobias, and you don’t have friends. You have acquaintances and people you want to rip the heads off of, but not friends.”
Ok, so he may have had a point. I just smiled at him and went to the back room to grab the box of party decorations I had Tristan drop off for me.
There were blue and white streamers I hung around the room and I blew up at least three hundred balloons, enough to fill the entire floor. I knew it was cheesy and both Micky and Tristan looked at me like I had been neutered.
“I know I said I wasn’t a party fairy, but I think it’s pretty clear that deep down you are.”
I flipped him off which made both of them laugh then I went back to
