Bad Boys, Sarcasm and Emotions // Nate Maloley

Chapter 6 ~ Night Out

Once the day was over, we were at home deciding what to wear for tonight.

Struggling to walk with my heels on, I grabbed the door handle and pulled it shut once Cara and Lauren had stepped out of the apartment, I locked it.
Placing my keys in my bag, we headed for the lift.

"I'm so nervous" I squealed, quietly.

"Why? I'm hyper" Lauren danced around because she was giddy as per.

"Hahaha, it's our first night out altogether since we have been here" I giggled.

"It'll be so fun. There will be boys...." Cara whispered, dragging on the word 'boys'.

"Andddd... I have a boyfriend" I arched my eyebrows.

"Ugh yeah I know, he's living with us" Lauren breathed but straightened up feeling sympathetic.

Arriving at the club, I stretched out my hand to get a stamp to confirm our presence. It was a vibrant array of colours and music. The sound was vibrating the whole room and nearly everyone was dancing.

*Cara's POV*

Woah. My eyes were becoming blurry, I was being blinded by the strobes of lights changing colours and patterns. Luckily, I managed to make my way down a couple of the steps before reaching the side near the bar.

"Omg.." Danielle trailed off as she wondered her eyes around and then stopped them at a specific place.
I followed her gaze and joined in on her confusion.

"What are they doing together?" I had to shout over the loud music.
Just in front of us there was, Tom... with Jack, Johnson, Sammy and Nate.

"I have no idea and I don't intent to find out" Lauren furrowed her eyebrows and sighed deeply.

"Well, I'm going over there to see" Dani started laughing and stormed over there.
I followed because I was intrigued and they were stood near the bar, I needed a drink, okay? Lauren huffed, knowing she would be alone and followed anyway.

"Oh, hey Dani" Tom came to attention, quickly wrapping his arm around her waist.

"H-Hey Tom" she stuttered, giving Tom a confused look. Realising, he spoke up.

"You've met them before, right?" Tom gestured towards the boys.

"Yeah, we have" Lauren added, scowling at Jack.

"I'm pretty sure he was talking to Danielle" He smirked, going closer to Lauren.

"I'm pretty sure I wasn't talking to you" She stated, taking a step back.

"How did you guys meet?" Dani questioned, stopping Lauren and Jack from arguing. She looked over to Nate who was stood up, leaning on the bar with one leg across the other and a beer in his hand.

"Us and Tom?" He said softly.

"No, you and Sammy, of course you and Tom?" Dani replied sarcastically.

Nate held his hands up in defence.
"Alright! I've seen Tom around, we've sort of met him when he was with you"

"Do you like him?" I mimed to Jack Johnson without anyone but Lauren and the boys seeing.

Johnson shrugged giving me a look which said it all.

"He's an idiot" I whispered, not exactly bothered if he heard me.

"Mhm, yeah" Johnson rolled his eyes behind Tom's back.

*Dani's POV*

Tom started to pull me away, again.

"Come on Danielle. I need to speak to you" Tom slurred him words a little as he was becoming more and more drunk. He began tugging on my bare arm as I tried to say goodbye quickly.

"We are going over there, bye" I blurted all of sudden to get my words in. They all looked confused as they knew I didn't want to go.

"What? Why? Tom just let her stay here!" Lauren shouted, sticking up for me.
"She is fine here" Cara added trying once again.
He just continued to drag me.

"It's okay, I'll not be long" I forced a smile to convince everyone but Cara and Lauren didn't look too convinced.

I walked off with Tom as our fingers were entwined and I clasped them with my spare hand.

"Tom, where are we going?" I looked up at him but he was facing straight forward.

"I'm just taking you over here so we can have some time alone. I'm sick of being with people all the time" he breathed and sped up.

"Oh, but they're your friends too: Jack, Jack, Nate and Sammy" Trying to ask a question but also a statement.

"Nah, not really. I only talked to them because I knew you would be meeting up with them" he seemed angry or jealous.

"Actually I only came over because you were there, I don't even like Jack" I stated, wondering why he said that.

"Oh right. So, you are not cheating on me?" He spat sarcastically.

"Of course not. What the f*ck?" I screamed back, loosening my grip, annoyed that he would even think that.

Tom chuckled as he pushed me against the wall but I didn't fight back because I knew he wouldn't do anything.
Forcing his lips on mine, I smelt a strong stench of beer so I pushed him away.

"Tom, you're really drunk" I sighed, trying to push him away.

"I know, Hahaha. Who cares?" He laughed.

He did it again, with one hand against the wall, he pressed his lingering body on mine.

"TOM, not now" I became much more serious, fed up with him.

"Oh, come on, Dan" Playfully smiling, he bit his lip.

I walked away attempting to get back to Lauren and Cara.
I ran my hands through my hair when somebody clasped their hands around my arm.
Spinning around I saw Tom again, forcing me to kiss him. Turning my head slightly so his lips just brushed past and caught my cheek, he peeled his body back and slapped me. I jumped a little as he was beginning to frighten me, covering my face with my hand.
As his temper grew further, so did his grip.

"Let go of me!!" I shouted frantically attempting to escape.

"Tom stop it" Desperately trying to get away, I grabbed his arm too.

Anger began to emerge in his eyes, I could see it clearly.

He has never behaved like this before, what is wrong with him?
