One Nightstand With My Sister's Fiance

Sophie's pov

The loud sound of music echoed in my ear and the club lights kept reflecting in my direction, but all that mattered to me was having fun that night and for once, forgetting I existed in a crazy world.

"A glass of whiskey please," I said to the bartender and rested my elbows on the counter.

I need to be drunk. They say alcohol helps, and I need that help at that moment. When I thought everything was falling into place, it was ruined before it even started.

I rolled my neck with my eyes shut, and I never noticed when she sat beside me.

"Here you go, ma'am." The voice of the bartender forced my eyes open but before I could pick the glass up, she snatched it away and replaced it with a glass of apple drink with little alcohol.

"C'mon sis, we aren't here to get drunk. We are here to have fun and you want to ruin it? You have a date with Daniel tomorrow. You need to be lightheaded."

Right, I need to be light-headed and not get my planned date ruined with a hangover.

I picked up the drink she offered and took a sip from it. "I apologize. I just needed something to clear my head off my work." I moved my hand across my face and sighed deeply. "So many things are happening right now and they are so much for me. Why should my life be this miserable?" I questioned and batted my lashes, trying to blink my tears away.

Juliet pushed closer and placed her hand on my shoulder, "That's why you need to get happy tonight. Just watch everything and let's have fun. Go ahead, allow the drink to sink in."

I picked up the glass of juice and took a gulp. It tasted good. Juliet is the only sister and friend I had. I lost my mother at birth and my father got married to another woman who has been the best mother I could ever ask for. I am ready to do anything for this family of mine.

My boss, Ethan Wensworth, has decided to make my life a living nightmare. He doesn't find anything I do worthy, even though I am his fiance's sister. He always finds a way to make my day terrible and recently, he threw my project, which I spent many sleeplessness working on, away. I mean, it was perfect and every other person testified. He just wasn't satisfied.

I emptied the glass and pushed my head back as a smile registered on my lips. I don't know if it's because of the drink or a sudden spell, but I felt so lightheaded. Like everything in the world doesn't matter.

I was in a different world and not walking, but flying. I was in a world of my own. I laughed and shut my eyes.

"I love this feeling. I suddenly feel so good, Juliet." I laughed and spread my arms out.

"What are you talking about? What is happening to you, Sophie?" I heard Juliet's voice but it seemed distant. No right words for an answer were formed in my head. I wanted to say something but laughed instead.

"This drink had a little alcohol. I shouldn't have told the bartender to mix a booze with it. I forgot how intolerant you are." I heard her say again, but her voice was coming from different directions and I couldn't tell where she was.

I felt her hold my hand tight, "I need to take you to a room." She said again and led me to who knows where.

She opened the door and led me in. "Go sit down Sophie. I need to get our bags and call a cab. The inside is noisy right now. Please do not leave. I will be back, I promise." She said and left, locking the door.

I am all alone. I don't know what to feel about that, but I needed to do something. I felt as though I was in the middle of an ocean, walking on the surface of the water. I feel so free.

I staggered to the bed and made to sit, but I fell on a body. The lights came on immediately. I forced my heavy eyes open and raised my brow. Beneath me was a man, staring at me with open eyes.

Not just any man cause I recognized him immediately. It was Ethan Wensworth. I gasped and pushed my face away from getting close to his. Ethan Wensworth, Juliet's fiance and my boss at work. What was he doing in the room anyway? Did he suddenly appear? Was he a ghost?

"Juliet?" He questioned and laughed, his voice came out like someone who had too many drinks. "What are you doing here?"

I should have gotten away from him, but there I was, still lying to him. "You evil boss, we meet again." I couldn't control my words. I let them out freely, not bothered about the consequences.

He laughed out and wrapped his arm around my waist, bringing my body closer to his. I should push him away. That's my sister's fiance. My brain kept screaming at me, but I shut the voice down. I could feel in-between my legs getting soaked and I guess, he had the same feeling as mine. I could feel a bulge pressing into my stomach.

This is bad!

"Should we stop? I don't know what is wrong with me right now, but I won't be able to stop myself." He whispered into my ear and kissed my earlobe. I shook my head, giving him the go-ahead to do as he pleased.

He drew closer to me and placed his hand on my butt cheeks, giving it a gentle squeeze. He is my boss and my sister's fiance. What am I doing? Juliet would be back up in no seconds. I would be dead if she caught me with him. I need to go away. I need to force myself away from him.

"Juliet-" I tried to call out, but I wasn't sure my voice was loud enough to his hearing. We will both regret this in a few minutes or when we wake up in the morning after we see the hurt look on Juliet's face.

She was on her way back to the room. I can feel it. Ethan suddenly pushed me to my back on the bed and laid on top of me. He kissed my neck and whispered into my ear. "Now there is no coming back."

The next morning...

I was woken up by the rays of light shining bright on my face. I turned and stretched my arms wide enough, but got a quick bolt of fear flow into me when my hand touched the skin of someone beside me.

I gasped and sat up with my eyes wide open. A man on the bed with me. How.....What happened.....What is going on.... who is he?....

I had lots of questions running through my head at the same time. What was happening? Why was a man naked on the same bed as me? I am naked too.

Everything that happened at night came rushing back to my memory. I had slept with the man beside me. I had slept with Ethan Wensworth.

I pulled out a gasp from my throat and moved back in fright. My heart was beating faster than normal, realizing what I had done. I had betrayed my boyfriend and my sister. Her fiance was the man on my bed.

Surprisingly, it felt so good. I could still remember the ecstasy feeling he made me feel. It felt so good.

I hit my forehead realizing I was reminiscing on what happened with a smile on my face. I need to forget about it all. I need to run as far as I can away from him and never show my face to him. He wouldn't remember.

It was just a drinking night and I was sure he was drunk too. We were both drunk. We just need to forget it ever happened and go on with our lives.

I hurriedly climbed down the bed and picked up my clothes. I wore them back while making sure not a single noise was made. I quickly arranged my hair and walked out of the room.

A hotel room? Gosh! What has become of me? I tried shaking the thought off but who was I kidding? It was going to hunt me for the rest of my life and I just signed up a long deal for it.

Juliet was nowhere to be found. Could it be she saw the both of us and went back home hurt? What should I do? I have hurt her feelings. I have betrayed her, Daniel, and my family.

What would happen when they all see me? What is going on in the house? Anything that is done to me, is well deserved. I have ruined Juliet. Oh goodness!

I took a cab which took me home. I paid off the driver and stood by the gate, wondering what would happen if I stepped in. It surely wouldn't be good. My family has shown me love all through my life and I dared hurt my sister.

I swallowed hard and squeezed my clothes tightly. My legs were rooted to the ground and I could move in.

"Hello sister," Juliet called out, walking out of the house. "You look so awful right now. I was about to go back to the bar. What the hell happened to you?" She walked closer and placed her hand on my shoulder staring at me with concern.

I drew my brows together, surprised about her reaction. She doesn't look like someone who was angry or who even knew what happened last night. Didn't she go back up to check on me?

"You left last night?"

She nodded. "Yes. I had to leave cause my mother called. I needed to go back home and cover up for the both of us. But I was sure to have left you safely there and I instructed the security to watch you. I wouldn't leave you on your own, but your state made it impossible to bring you home with me. Mother will get worried sick."

I don't know what to feel. Happy? Relieved? Sad? Or guilt? At least she didn't see the betrayal, but the guilt would be stuck with me forever.

She let out a sigh and drew closer to me. "I guess the alcohol in the drink was too much. I am sorry about it. It's all my fault." She raised the corner of her lips and draped her arm around mine, "C'mon, let's go in."

We got in and no one seemed to know the sin I had committed. They were all busy, smiling and laughing to themselves. I don't know if I should call this better because, deep down, I wanted them to find out about my sin and give me my deserved punishment.

"Where have you been, Sophie? Come join us." Mother, Liana, called with a smile reaching her eyes.

I forced a smile too and went to them. "You look a mess." Mother added and caressed my cheeks.

"I need to freshen up." I rushed out and went upstairs to my room.

I shut the door behind me and rested my back on the door, releasing the breath I had held in when with them. It felt so suffocating knowing what I had done but still smiling with them.

The guilt was overwhelming my heart. My phone rang in my pocket and I brought it out to answer it, but seeing Daniel's name displayed on the screen, it fell from my hand and scattered on the floor.

This is bad. I am not myself anymore. The guilt is engulfing my entire body. I placed my hand on my chest, trying to breathe.

A loud knock came on the door and I jumped up with a low scream escaping my lips. I need to calm down. I might collapse if I stand near my family again.

The knock came again and I exhaled deeply before I went to open the door.

"Mother is......" she cut off my words by connecting her palm to my cheek, making a loud, thunderous sound.

"How dare you, Sophie? How dare you do this to your sister?"

I placed my hand on my cheek with my mouth open, "Mother..... I-I didn't...."

She turned on her phone and showed it to my face. My jaw dropped and the world stood still around me.

In the video displayed before me, I was in bed, making out with Ethan. Someone had videos of what happened. I am doomed. My life is over.

"Mother I can explain......"

My whole world came crashing right before my eyes. Before I could come back to what was happening, Mother grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the room, going downstairs where everyone was waiting.

She pushed me forward with so much strength that I lost my stance and hit the chair. Before I could recover from the pain, Juliet walked to me and turned me to face her, connecting her palm to my face afterward.

"How dare you do this to me!" She yelled out and slapped me on the other cheek.

Well, I deserve it anyway.

"The sister who I love so much and care for. The sister who I take as my only friend, dares betray me this way. What did I ever do to you to deserve this?" Juliet cried with so much hurt in her voice and her eyes.

I couldn't look at her. I was so embarrassed to do so. I am an embarrassment. How could I do this to my sister? She has every right to hate me.

"I .....I was...I didn't...." I couldn't form a sentence cause all I thought about was the scene replaying itself in my head.

My stepmom, Liana, walked forward and connected her palm with my cheek. "What do you have to say for yourself? Don't you dare try to deny it now that the evidence is wide open for you?" She added as I placed my hand on my cheeks.

"I...I don't know......I didn't." My voice was suddenly lost and tears began to fall on my cheeks.

"You were drunk and you used that opportunity to go to my man!" Juliet half yelled and fell to the floor on her knees. "This betrayer is too much to handle Mom. How could she do this to me?" she cried.

Liana walked to her and knelt beside her, patting her back gently. "Cry it all out baby."

"No.....no....I was drugged. I wasn't in my right senses. I didn't know what I was doing and I promise, I was going to tell you, Daniel." I cried but it was all useless at that point.

My life was over and I knew it.

"How dare you disgrace the Houston family this way, Sophie?!" Father's voice echoed in the walls of the large living room.

I shook my head and faced my father with my view covered with tears. "I am so sorry father. I swear, I didn't want what was happening. I only had a little drink and drank soft drinks for the rest of the night. I don't know what I was doing here."

"Then who would have drugged you, you liar?" Liana questioned with her voice laced with spite.

"I have no idea, Mother. Please believe me."

"Don't you dare call me mother!" She roared as her jaw tightened. "I can never be a mother to a whore like you!"

"Sophie!" A loud call came from the door and in no time, the one who had called my name, walked in. "What is going on?" He questioned, standing before me.

I sniffed and lowered my head. I can't help but think I have made a big mistake for my family. I just destroyed their reputation.

"What is all this going on?!" Daniel yelled out, causing me to flinch.

"I am sorry!" I cried, not daring to look at him.

I have lost him. My foolishness made me lose Daniel. If only I hadn't gone to that party with Juliet. If only I didn't drink that juice..... But I could swear, it wasn't strong enough to make me drunk and lose my senses unless a mistake was made.

I rushed to where Daniel was and shook my head. "I swear, I didn't know what was happening to me." I cried, "My mind was blank and my head clouded. I couldn't explain what was going on around me."

He moved back, trying to get away from me. He should cause I feel so dirty.

"Please believe me. I swear I was going to tell you."

"I can't believe you will do this to me, Sophie." His voice was low and the hurt in it was so strong that it was almost felt. My heart broke into a thousand pieces.

I hated to see him in that state.

"This relationship is off." He faced my family. "Whatever relationship I had with Sophie is broken now." With that said, he walked out of the house followed by his family.

Father faced me with so much disappointment written on his face, "You have destroyed this family reputation and because of this, you will never take part in any of the inheritance of this family. You are a useless girl who should have died along with your mother!" Father's hurtful words got deep into me, cutting through my already broken heart.

He stomped out, leaving my stepmother and sister. Liana helped her daughter up and led her upstairs.

"Please believe me. I don't know what is going on." I cried, but who would believe me? Who will believe me? I betrayed everyone. I deserve what I will get. It was all my fault anyway.

I spent a long time on my knees allowing my sin to weigh down on me. This is my punishment and I do deserve it. A sinner like me shouldn't exist in this world.

I don't know how long I had stayed kneeling, but when I got back to my room and picked up my phone, I had so many missed calls from one person.

I sniffed and called back the number. "Hello.."

He cut in, "Sophie Houston, we need to talk." He said into the phone. It was Ethan.

I shut my eyes and nodded, "Yes we should."

I picked up my coat and rushed out of the house. Ethan and I need to come up with a solution for what happened. I can't do this alone and I am so grateful he called.

I took a cab to the sent address and met him waiting for me at the far end of the restaurant. I rushed over to him.

"Mr Wensworth, thank goodness you are here. We have to find a way out of....."

He cut in, "You have to find a way out of this trouble you have caused me."

I arched my brow, "What are you talking about?"

He smirked and drew forward, "Don't play dumb here. You seduced me when I was drunk and made this happen even though you knew I was your sister's fiance," he accused, causing my eyes to widen.

"What?"
