Chills

Alive

I turn to see Jonah.

He pulled me towards him and whispered in my ear, "can I have this dance?" He asked.

"Yeah." I answered. His eyes sparkled and he smiled, genuinely, not a fake one.

I put my arms around his neck and start swaying to the beats. I was laughing at the jokes he made in between.

"Up for a drink?" He asks, smiling.

"Yeah." I reply.

"Why did you come from LA to San Francisco?" He asks, taking a sip from his drink.
It seemed strong but he was drinking it like water. I noticed.

"Sorry, what? I kind of zoned out." I laughed lightly.
"Happens." He says. I clear my throat, smiling and looking away.

"Moving on." He says, stretching the "o" and "n".

"Yeah please." I agree.

"I moved to San Francisco because Jahn, my sister, oh wait, you already know her. Yeah, she told me LA isn't safe." I add.
"LA wasn't that bad." I sigh.

He keeps a straight face, it seemed like he was thinking about something deeply.

"What are you thinking about?" I ask him.

"Nothing important, sweetheart." He smiles.

I look at my drink when I hear..

"Well, time's up. " The club manager declared.

Wait. For how long have I been here?

"What's the time, Jonah?" I ask him, sleepy.

"It's 4 am right now." He says.
"Is there any problem?" He adds.

"No no, Jahn isn't here and Mary won't wake up until 8 am, so it's perfect.

I look around searching for Olivia. I see him with a guy, she looks and me and says, "he's a great time pass." I laugh at her. She has always been the playful one.

"Is that your friend?" Jonah asks me.
"Yeah, she is." I say.

I start moving towards Olivia to take her home when I feel a hand pulling my wrist.
It was Jonah's hands.

"Yeah?" I look at him.
"Will you end the night so soon?" He says like a baby.
"The club made the last call already." I laugh.

"Well.. the club isn't everything in California. I could give you conpany for a few more hours." He winks.

I look at Olivia, "don't worry, go live your life." She laughs and goes to the counter and sits in front of the guy she was talking to. They seem close by now. I smile to myself and look at Jonah.

"Can't say no to such a tempting offer." I laugh.

"Ay! Let's go." He says.

We get into his black car. He tells his driver to leave, saying he will drive.

I sit beside him.

"Hey! Switch on the radio." I tell him.
"Why not." He says.

I sit and observe him. He was swift. His hands were looked like it was used to the car. His hands were filled with tattoos, not going to lie, it looked hot.
They looked really beautiful.

"Like what you see?" He smirked. I blushed.
"Yeah. It looks good on you." I say, awkwardly.

"Well, thank you." He laughs.
"Do you have any tattoos?" He asks.

"Nope! Jahn will kill me." I say.
"Shoot. Why does she not let you go out, one, not let you drink, two and doesn't even let you get a tattoo, three." He says shaking his head.

"She is just protective and I'm thankful for having her. I wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for her." I say, breathing out slowly.

He looks at me, ignoring the road.

"God! Look at the road, do you want an accident?" I tell him, pointing at the road.

"I know the tricks, don't you worry." He says in an elegant American accent.

"Yeah but still. You'd understand if you lose someone through it." I say, the last part being almost not audible.

"Hm? Did you say something?" He says.
"Nah nah."I lie.

"Hey! What do you do?" I suddenly ask him.

"I kill." He says.

I choked on air.
"What-" I ask him.

"I was just kidding, babe." He laughs. Still not telling what he does. Fair enough.

"Do you like music?" He asks me.
"Yeah. I love it." I smile.
"Can you sing?" I ask him.

"Sort of? Yeah." He smiles.

"Woah. Your voice must be melodious." I say.

" I met her on a Monday evening
She was standing outside of the park and ride
And I said, "Hey ma, where you been?"
"Been looking for a woman like you for all my life"
And she said, "Hola, talk to me
"Before I have to leave"
And one day we could be
Maybe more than two lost souls just passing by."

He sings in an amazingly beautiful voice.
"Wow. Just wow. " I say in awe.
"Did you like it? " He asks, licking his lips.

"LIKE? I LOVED IT! It seems like angel resides in your throat. It's just so beautiful." I say quickly.

"Relax. Thank you." He laughs.

"There's a beach nearby. Let's go there." He says.
"Yes! I love beaches!" I say in an enthusiastic tone.

Finally, after what feels like an eternity, I feel alive. Jonah is like that ray right now that lights up a dark place.

I look at him, the sun lighting up his face a little. He was beautiful.
The sun started to rise though it was just, 5 am.

We reached the beach. It looked so beautiful. He slipped his fingers through mine. We walked through the shore, holding hands. We kept talking about useless things , mostly I did. He was a good listener. He made cute and funny remarks at some silly things.

The sound of the waves splashing and the birds chirping was ringing. We went inside the water, just till the knee. We kept losing balance due to the waves.

I held his shoulders for support.
"I don't wanna ruin my clothes." I laugh.
"You're in safe hands , don't worry." He says, keeping his hands on my waist and pulling me towards him.

I look into his blueish-green eyes. I could feel his eyes on my lips.

In a flash, I was in his arms and his lips moving with mine.

A/N:
