She gave us our shots stand while arranging her’s, “Okay then, I’ll start first, Never Have I ever kissed a stranger,” She and drank one of her shot, I glanced at Lillian and saw taking a shot too, they glanced at me with a questioning look on their faces.
I shook my head as no, they drank the shots and placed the empty one aside, now it was my turn, “Never have I ever… slipped on a banana peel,” I said and I drank the shot, I heard them laugh listening to my words,
I smirked as I watched them drink their shots, “That was funny!” Lillian said while wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.
“Never have I ever.. danced like a tribal person!” Lillian said while drinking her shot, I remember dancing like that when I was so drunk once, I took a shot and noticed Lydia taking a shot of hers while laughing out loud.
“Never have I ever… sniffed marker ink,” Lydia said while laughing and taking her shot to her mouth, we laughed out while drinking ours.
“Never have I ever.. worn my shirt inside out in public by mistake,” I said as the memory rushed to my head, I was in college when it happened, I had an assignment to submit and I was running late because of that I wore my shirt inside out and didn’t notice it until my friend saw me running in the hallway dressed like that.
I heard Lydia and Lillian laughing out while drinking their shot, “I still remember that awkward situation I was In when my principal saw me,” she said while laughing out loud.
“Never have I ever been catfished,” Lillian said while taking her shot, I remember that funny thing happen when I was at my grand mother’s house, my grandmother’s neighbor Jackson had a crush on me, he was shy to talk to me so, he just catfished me, but what’s funny was my granny caught him and tried to help him talk to me but instead she scared him away.
We continued to play and at the end of the game we were so drunk, “Come on let’s dance!” Lydia yelled while grabbing our hands and pulling us over to the dance floor.
We began dancing like mad ones, not caring about anything in our drunken state moving our bodies, shaking our hips in a sexy way attracting every single man on the dance floor. The music is all nineteen nineties but we’re dancing like it’s jive, twisting, turning, holding hands as we change sides. We’re all grins, we look like idiots and we don’t care. Inside we’re just happy, happy, and more alive than we can ever be. I feel the part of me that’s really me comes out to play, to feel the vibe of the music, and let my body go free. I notice a blonde guy moving closer towards Lydia from her behind while dancing and moving his hands over her waist and pulling her back a bit. She turned around while winking at me, I noticed her seduction working on the man as he began moving his body closer to her.
I shook my head and turned towards Lydia, we danced and danced moving our bodies in a way that our moves were matching the music that was playing. As we were dancing I noticed Lydia moving her body against some brunette guy who was all over her, she had a wicked smile on her face as she winked and moved hands over his neck.
I winked back and began dancing all by myself without caring about anything, my legs were on fire while my hips were moving by itself sinking with the beats and the music was so loud that it made my skin tingle and my lungs feel like mush. The bass thumped in time with my heartbeat as though they were one, filling me from head to toe with music. I liked this song. Over the roar of music, a distant, hazy chatter could be heard which quickly became recognized as Lydia’s. I couldn’t make out any words, but laughter rang in my ears and wouldn’t seem to stop. The song that was playing got louder, pulling me in and wouldn’t let go.
All of a sudden my ruff hand grabbed my arm and pulled me off from the dance floor, I tried to move his guy’s hand off my arm but he was so strong.
“Hey leave my hand,” I screamed but because of loud music, my words couldn’t reach this huge guy. By the uniform he was wearing I could easily recognize him as a bodyguard but where is he taking me?
He was pulling me with him, we were climbing the stairs, he was taking me to the second floor. As we reached the floor I saw the board there, which was indicating it as VVIP section, “Where are you taking me,” I screamed but it went ignored too. He kept on pulling me towards big doors which were located at the end of the floor, It was a VVIP room. He stopped in front of the doors and pressed a button at the right, “Boss, I found the girl Miss. Harper described,” he said through the telecom, I glanced at his ear and saw Bluetooth over his ear, hearing his words my heart began beating faster, It beats like it’s going to crack a rib while my senses are on high alert as every color is brighter, every noise louder.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“Yes, she’s short, brown hair in black dress and baby brown eyes,” I heard him say,
I began beating his hand, “Let me go!” I screamed as I was scared even though I was so drunk,
“Okay,” he said through the telecom and moved back, I began beating his hands harder but he wasn’t reacting at all, his hold was still strong. As I continued to beat his hand the doors opened, hearing the sound of it I turned around.
When my eyes met his gaze, I felt drawn into his eyes. The icy blueness generated a feeling like I was being pulled into a lake of frozen emotions. It was like all the myriad shades of blue swirled together to form a whirlpool of apprehension, I couldn’t understand whether this is all the alcohol’s effect or not. To say that his eyes were blue was like saying that the sun was yellow. Sufficient but not accurate to capture the burning.
I gulped at the intensity those ocean blue eyes held while my trembling lips whispered, “M.. Mr. Villin?”
