chapter 22

"Yes dad, I'll talk to him and ask him for a date before the party tonight."

I assured my father on the phone who is deliberately much concerned about my dating life more than I. He loves me but he wants me to find a suitable match for myself and according to him, I should give more time to my guy and be loyal to him. I don't even know what does that mean. You just need a guy to hang out with and be intimate with.

 A guy who is as good looking, cool and rich as Niall Schreave. Niall and I have been dating for a year now, and I think he's the best boyfriend I've ever got...till now. He is so much fun at parties and more fun after parties, when he and I are alone. He even gave me my first orgasm, real orgasm. It's not like I haven't had sex with my boyfriends before him, I had, a plenty times. But those losers never knew how to make Davina Castalia wet. And if they thought I'll be happy with the same tricks they did with other girls they were certainly wrong. I don't get pleasure from some low key brats who shove themselves intentionally hard in my pussy, thinking it'll be enough for me to let out an orgasm but in contrary I wail at the vain efforts of those losers.Niall always knows how to make me come only by touching my hyper active body parts. The way his fingers trail down my skin and the complimentary hungry gaze in his eyes could make any girl come to her knees. But I'm not submissive enough to kneel down to him. 

I put the phone back on my wallet as I entered the building, the empire my father and uncle established together. Being daughter of one of the top ten business tycoons of Las Vegas has it's own benefits. People pay me respect and attention, for the things I never did to earn them. But I enjoy it anyway. People greeted me as I kept taking steps toward an office and even before opening the door I know what's happening inside. 

"Slow down the music Dylan!"

I shouted at top of my voice as I entered the hall but it was vain as the loud music blocked my voice from reaching my bastard of a twin's ears. The sound proof walls of his office made people working outside think that the jerk is actually doing some real work inside. But all he did was to play with basket ball while listening the loud music. His office merely looks like an office and more like a club with the lightings and interior setups. I mean who builds a swimming pool inside the hall provided to you for office work. Dylan got the most twisted brain in our family and even father don't have any objections with it. He says, "He'll eventually understand his duties when the time is right." I doubt that. 

"Hello, sister. How's your special day going, so far?"

He asked as he settled on the couch, well aware that this silly question of him is gonna annoy me. 

"It's not my special day, it's Niall's birthday."

I corrected him. 

"Yeah whatever! By the way, what are you gifting him?"

His question reminded me that I was still to buy a gift for Niall, but I couldn't think of anything he doesn't have already. He was as rich as us, his father won the award for the best entrepreneur last month, there was nothing he could need or want. Fuck! Why is choosing the gift, the most difficult task? Can't there be anything he needs? Yeah, obviously other than a blowjob. He's been wanting the thing since we met, but not ready to be submissive, I deny everytime he asks. 

"I don't know... "

Before I could even complete my sentence, Dylan cuts me off. Another of his bad habits.

"What?! It's your boyfriend's birthday! How could you still be clueless about gifting him? He's the most long-lasting boyfriend you've ever had, after all."

He laughed at his own comment, wanting me to smash his face.

"Dylan, don't you start again. What do you expect me to do, get sticked to one guy for life, like a clingy lizard?"

I questioned him and his expressions were no more humorous rather serious. Lecture coming! 

"When you love someone truly you don't have to be clingy, Dove. The sense of belonging eventually comes to you and you don't feel like a clingy lizard when you actually care for them. You'll just be happy to be forever around them and you'll even enjoy spending your life with them. Cara and I've been dating for two years now and we love the time we spend together, because we love each other."

Ah! He and his girlfriend, the sweet love birds. My family admires them for being a cute couple but they haven't even had sex once. Can you believe? Two years of relationship and no sex yet! I know it because I asked Cara about it once, she was obviously angry, for me trying to invade her personal life but as if I care for what she thinks! She yelled right at my face "NO!!" and I couldn't help but laugh at it. She ran away from the spot. Am I that intolerable? Not to forget, Dylan and I had a fight after that, we worked it out after few days though. 

"So, you are saying I don't love Niall?"

I asked him in amusement, the word 'love' was indeed something that sounds cool, but I don't know what it feels like. Even if I do know about it, I'm not aware if I'm in love with Niall or not. I mean we do all the stuffs that a good couple will do, except blow jobs. But I don't think that should be a big problem. 

"I don't know, how things are between you two. But whenever we talk about him, you never show care."

I was bewildered at his answer. What's he talking about? Should I now keep check of his eating and sleeping schedules? Is he asking me to be his personal assistant? Bruh! 

"Care, huh? How do we show that?"

I asked him, keeping at side all the questions that rose in my mind because I know that would have pissed him off and I seriously want answers from him now. 

"Forget it, Dove. You don't have to learn to show care at least. It's something you want to do for the person you love."

He said. 

"Can you stop ranting at me and explain me seriously?"

I asked. 

"Without that pouty face."

I added, pointing towards his face.

"Well, if you care for for Niall you would know what kind of present you would like to give him. It shouldn't necessarily be luxurious but sometimes the sweet little memoirs of love do a great favor in winning the heart of your beloved."

Hmm... His answer made me ponder. Actually he was right, I don't have to gift Niall something super expensive or luxurious, he has all the luxuries at his disposal. But then the question arises again, WHAT TO GIFT HIM?! 

"Can you suggest something, I could give him?"

I asked him and ignorance evident in my voice. 

"He's your boyfriend... For a year now. Wouldn't you know him better than I do?"

He was correct I should know Niall more than anyone else does. He was my most persistent boyfriend after all. 

"Umm... A perfume?"

I don't know why but that was the first thing to strike my mind. 

"Yeah, but do you know of any specific kind of fragrance he prefers?"

He asked a question I was oblivious about, I know Niall's fragrance really well but I don't know the name of the brand he uses. So again I was clueless! 

"Don't tell me, Dove you don't even know his choice in perfumes!"

Dylan commented and I narrowed my eyes at him. It was embarrassing for me to not know about my boyfriend's choice but then why would I remember everything he uses. He must use quite a large variety of perfumes, I can't remember them all. 

"Suggest me something else, can you?"

I asked him trying to sound as calm as I could. I really need Dylan's help right now. He's so good at all this stuff, related to dating life. 

"Umm... What about flowers, does he likes them?"

He asked and I laughed out loud at this suggestion of him. 

"Come on Dylan, it's his birthday not some farewell."

I told him and the idea of gifting stupid flowers made me laugh again. 

"You can gift him his favorite flowers, you know? If you really want to show him that you care for him."

He said. 

"Eh? How will giving some bunch of flowers, gonna proof that I care for him?"

I asked him in obvious disbelief. 

"Dove, flowers are delicate and fragile just like a relationship. If showered with good amount of love they bloom to spread the fragrance but when the force is applied, they lose their fragrance and soon become lifeless. It's exactly what you can gift to Niall. To show that your relationshio is important and you both have to nurture it with the potion of love!"

Whoa! Dylan can sound like a saint sometimes, I don't mind trying his idea as I was taken aback by his words. How could someone know this much about love? By the way I still don't know if Niall and I shared love or not. 

"Fine I'll go to the florists' and buy him a bouquet."

I told him and he smirked, back to being a jerk. 

"So, are you coming to his party tonight?"

I asked him.

"To be honest, I really don't want to go because it mostly involves business talks and no fun. Then those braggarts, they don't understand that they don't really play any role in the business, they are just associated with it because of their father's name. But Cara wants me to come, her friends are coming too."

He said, disgusted at the thought of the guys of our age. Dylan can be so childish and so matured sometimes, he doesn't usually pays attention to work but never even takes false credits. He enjoys the money that dad willingly wants to spend on him but he never fake brags about it because he better knows that he has no part played in making that money. The idea was lame, but Dylan was a twisted soul. Maybe he was too good to be a rich heir when he couldn't be a rich brat. Cara was a perfect match for her because both of their ideologies were similar. She is also rich but prefers being simple at occasions but she indeed is classy for whatever she does. 

"Fine. I'll meet you at the party then."

I told him and stood to walk away.

"So, you'll directly meet Niall at the party? Not before that?"

He asked me. 

"No, I'll be asking him for a date in afternoon and will give him flowers there only."

I told him, I obviously can't gift Niall Schreave some stupid flowers in front of his millionaire guests, father has already sorted the expensive gifts he would like to give to Niall, so I don't have to worry much about that. And if I am to believe Dylan, flowers have to work as a present for our date. 

"Okay sure. See you later."

He told me and I left his office and reached my car. I dialed Niall's number as soon as I settled on my Bugatti. 

"Hey! Happy birthday."

I said as soon as he picked up the phone. 

"Thank you"

Was his simple, dry reply. His voice made it clear he was still busy doing work and Dylan says they brag about their father's money.

"Are you free at afternoon?"

I asked. 

"Umm.. Yeah why?"

Was his question. 

"I am arranging a lunch date for us, can you come?"

"Yeah sure, text me the address and time."

"Yeah will do that right away."

I hung the phone and after reserving us a place for date, I texted Niall with address and time to reach there. Now next I've to do is put on a nice dress and makeup and buy some flowers for my boyfriend. It's still funny, but it has to do.
