Dancing The Night Away

Ok so here is another chp...I hope this is a good story so far.  Comments welcome...thx!!!

Chp 4

 We left the restaurant and Shaun decided we should go dancing and so he took us to a dance club Allure Night Club.  We walked in and it was jumpin in there it was a very relaxed atmosphere so we grabbed a table ordered a drink and after throwing it back we took to the dance floor.  We danced to the latest R&B sounds, Usher, Kanye West, Jay-Z and Beyonce.

We were having such a great time; it’s been a long time since I have been out and enjoyed myself like this.  Even with Kevin we don’t do really fun things, mostly we go out to dinner, go to an art museum or stay at home.  I was really considering if I’ve wasted all these years with Kevin, but what if I decided to be with Shaun and it didn’t work out; then what?  I tried to push that thought out of my head and just enjoy the moment.  Time slipped away and when we left the club it was 2 a.m. we has no idea it was that late. 

Shaun took me home and he was really quiet, so I asked him what was wrong he just shook his head and said nothing, however I knew different, but I didn’t press the issue I let it go for now.  We arrived in front of my house, Shaun cut the engine and I asked if he would like to come in.  He paused and said yes and I knew it was on from there. 

Walking in my house I flipped the light switch and went in. I told Shaun I would be right back I wanted to get out of his shoes and skirt.  He nodded, but didn’t say anything.  I went upstairs baffled as to why Shaun all of sudden solemn on me. 

Ok it was time to find out what was going on in his head.  I changed into my shorts and a top and hurried back down stairs.  As if in his own world, he didn’t see me come in the room.  I sat down beside him and told him to spill it. He looked at me like I had two heads and I looked at him like ok what’s the problem.  He hesitated making sure he chose his words carefully. 

Finally he started to speak, "Well Nikki, I have something I need to tell you, but I don’t know quite how to say it."  I told him to just say it and he nodded his head. 

“Well here goes, he shrugged and started before he would lose his nerve.  "Ok so we have been seeing each other for a while now and there is a certain vibe between us and I want to pursue it to see if it will go further."

"Now I understand that you are already involved in another relationship, but after tonight we had such a great time and I really want to spend more time with you."

"I know we agreed we would just get together for a booty call, but I think we could really be more than friends.” 

I just sat still listening to Shaun and I agree we have a great time together, but I’m not sure if we are ready for that next step with him.  I don’t know whether I should reply or just let it ride. So I decided I would just let it ride for the moment; I’m just not ready to have this conversation with him. 

Now he is just sitting here staring at me and I am getting a little uncomfortable under his gaze.  What should I say, should I say anything at all?  Oh wow, now what am I going to do?  We’ll just have to wait and see. I snapped out of my daze and Shaun was standing.  "Are you staying with me tonight?"  He shook his head and I felt a bit sad, but I understood why he didn't want to stay.

  "Naw, I think I'm gonna go to the house, got a long day tomorrow."  "It's Saturday, you work on the weekend?"  "Not usually, but I'm working on a big case and so I have some research I need to get done."  "Oh, ok well call me later sometime tomorrow?"  "Yeah I will babe, lock up ok?"  With that he kissed me soft and passionately before walking out the door.

It’s been such a strange ending to this date and now I’m not so sure if this was a good idea, maybe I should just end it now so I don’t get any deeper with this situation.  I said to myself, I’m so confused; and with that I went into my bathroom stripped down took a shower and headed to bed. 

Thank heavens Shaun didn’t want to stay; I don’t think I could have handled that tonight especially with his confession about us.  How did it get to this point?  I thought we would just kick whenever and not get caught up with feelings.  That’s what I get for being so irresistible, DAMN.
