Naomi
As I headed towards my search for washroom, I saw people making out. Well to be honest it looked as if they were eating each other and swallowing the whole face. This place is definitely not for me. As I proceed further I got inside the washroom and searched my pocket for my phone.
Aaaaahhhhhh!!!!
I forgot it’s with Chris.
I badly wanted to forget everything that happened tonight. I just wanted to have fun for at least once. But never in my life had I thought I’ll end up like this.
I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I looked dull with sweat covering my face, messy hair bun, smudged eye liner and red fluffy eyes from all the crying.
I was recalling all that s**t I went through back there when I felt someone behind me.
I knew it can only be Jane. I closed my eyes for a brief second and then I looked at the mirror.
Shock was evident in my face. The same eyes again trapped me and I was fixed in my place. I wanted to go but I couldn’t make my feet to move. He took a step towards me and waited for any reaction from me. I just couldn’t take my eyes off him. It took me all my strength to look away from him and look down.
Then I felt it, his hard sculpted chest against my back. His hands were stroking my barely covered limps.
My heartbeat was racing and I was breathing in a short and fast pace. I felt electricity moving from my limps where he touched till my stomach. He smelled of mint and lemon. It was refreshing.
He tilted his neck towards the right side of my neck and inhaled. His breathe send shivers down my spine. I couldn’t come up with any word. I lifted my eyes and looked at myself in the mirror.
Why am I so attracted to this man? Why did he come here? Why do I have to these feelings? Do I stink? What no! What am I even thinking? Gosh!
“You didn’t answer me babygirl. Are you alright?” his husky voice made me dripping wet again.
He was still buried in the crock of my neck. I badly wanted him to kiss me but I would never let a stranger take away my first kiss. I kept my posture and tried to speak up loud.
“I’m f-fine. Can…can I just leave please?” my words came out as just a whisper.
He lifted his head. He was tall and broad and I look petite in front of his huge frame.
He slowly stepped back to give me space to leave but his intense gaze held me captivated. I was desperately waiting for him to say something but nothing came. As I straighten myself to leave and looked at myself at the mirror, I saw my cheeks red and heat all over my body.
I had to escape soon. I won’t let anything ruin my sanity. This was just infatuation and won’t last long. I have to keep myself for the person I’ll love.
As I started walking towards the door, his voice stopped me, “What’s your name babygirl?”
I took a moment to compose my nerves before replying to his query. “Naomi Johnson. I need to leave. Thank you so much for saving me. Bye” I muttered and left the washroom.
The sound was beaming and my surroundings was back to normal. My eyes were looking for Jane and Chris in the crowd. I just want to go home and sleep. Today was definitely an eventful day.
I felt a hand in my shoulder and instantly horror creeped inside me. I didn't wanna repeat my mistake so I took time and turned around to see Jane.
I sigh in relieve and hugged her. She scanned me as if to make sure I wasn’t harm. She hurriedly pulled me towards the bar and ordered two Margarita.
I didn’t wanna drink alcohol but Jane wanted me to loosen up and probably one drink won’t make any issue in my system. As the bartender served our drinks, he handed me a card.
‘May I have a dance with you?’ it read, I was totally confused. Why me?
I flipped the card and then I saw it. It was send by him to me and I was sure about that now.
‘Babygirl’- This word was enough to let me know it was him. I looked around the crowd to spot him but I couldn’t find him. I felt intense gaze on me and immediately I turned behind and my eyes met his. He was standing behind a wall of glass and had a small smile on his lips or maybe a smirk.
“Oh. My. God. That s*x god is interested in you. Nice shot babe” Jane grabbed my attention with her annoying remark. She knows me very well so to make fun of me she spoke that s**t.
“Seriously Jane. It’s not happening. You know me too well to speak that s**t. Get over your drink and find Chris. I just wanna go home now” I remarked.
She hates being turned down but I didn’t care much at that time not even his sexy smirk which was enough to make me beg.
“I heard it” Jane smirked and left to call Chris.
It was definitely an embarrassing moment for me so I just grabbed my drink and started gulping it. Damn! This tastes good.
“Slow down babygirl. You wouldn’t want to choke on that. Would you?” even if I didn’t want to, I still couldn’t help myself and choked down on my drink. I hated how he affected me so much.
“Excuse me?!” he chuckled and offered me his hand. I was taken aback by this sudden movement and as stupid I can be I just stared him back with a questioning look.
“I at least deserve a dance with the lady I saved” he replied with a look of as-a-matter-of-fact. Well I was thankful to him but wasn’t it enough for him.
I quickly turned to the bartender and slide my card towards him.
I felt warm hands above my palm stopping me from paying. I was offended by his move. I don’t like people paying for me and definitely not a stranger.
“Let me at least pay for the drinks Naomi” the way my name rolled from his lips made my panties damp but I even missed the nickname he gave me. What the hell? What the f**k is wrong with me? Get a hold girl.
“I can very well pay for myself. Thank you but you need to leave. Neither am I interested in letting you pay nor dance with you.” With that he left my hands and disappeared with a disappointing look.
“Let’s go. Chris went to get the car. He is kinda pissed and I really don’t wanna put fuel on the fire” I signed in relieve and we both exited the club.
The ride was silent as neither of us dared to speak to each other. Something was off between Jane and Chris. May be fight but they never fight unless it was something big. As we reached our apartment, I took back my phone and keys from Chris and got off the car. I looked towards Jane but she didn’t move so I took that as a sign and walked towards our apartment.
I could hear both of them yelling at each other. Chris never yelled so it took me off guard.
I got inside our apartment and went straight to my room. I was already exhausted to think about anything.
I took a long shower and got inside my covers with only my underwear. Well one of my bad habits included sleeping almost naked so I always had to lock my door.
I woke up to see everything back to place. Chris and Jane were sitting and having their breakfast and they seem fine.
I did my morning chores and took a cup of coffee and headed to my laptop. I had to go through some files and documents.
Jane busted inside my room all excited. I guess Chris left so now I was her last option.
“Look what I found in the jacket” She held a card towards me; I wasn’t interested so I asked her to read it to me.
‘Mr. Andrew Mathew, Ignite Co., 7085******’ I was beyond shock. How can this be possible? He can’t be what I’m guessing now.
It’s just a coincident or May be not.
