"What's your name?" I heard him whisper into my ear

I smirked. I could be anyone I wanted.

"Penny" I told him as I sipped my drink.

"So Penny, let's finish these and hit the dance floor"

He ordered four shots, two between each of us.

"1, 2, 3! 1, 2, 3 drink! 1, 2, 3! 1, 2, 3, drink!" I sang

I threw back my shots and sat the glass down on the bar. I watched him finish his. I ran my palm down his chest before grabbing him by the tie.

"Come on" I shouted over the music.

I pulled him onto the dance floor and turned around, swaying my hips. He followed suit before snaking his arm around my waist and pulling me into his arms. We danced together as the songs changed. It felt like nothing could touch me, until he touched me. I smirked, going along with it.

"Let's get out of here, aye?" he asked

I turned around to look him in the eyes and nodded. He took my hand and lead me out of the club. I stumbled to his car. I wasn't that drunk.

"Oh my god" I laughed, almost falling flat on my face

I was that drunk.

He laughed and unlocked his car. We got in and he sped off into the night. I watched the lights run past the windows in blurs and streaks of color. I pushed my hair out of my eyes and watched him pull into the driveway of a large house.

"Wow" I whispered

"Banking pays the bills" he laughed

"I would imagine" I nodded, looking at the large house once again

He stopped and turned the car off.

"Ready?"

"Ready?" I asked confused

"To go inside" he stared at me

"Oh yeah" I nodded

We got out of the car and I followed behind him. He held my hand, pulling me along, making sure I didn't lose my footing again. He unlocked the front door and we entered. He closed the door behind and I looked around.

"This way" he nodded toward up the stairs.

I followed him and tried to make a note of where the door was, for when it was over. We ended up in the bedroom. He closed the door and locked it behind us. I saw him slip a key into his blazer and walk into the bathroom.

"Fuck" I mumbled realizing exactly what this could be and to brace myself for it.

"Take everything off but the heels"

I nodded, knowing he couldn't see me. I opened my bag and went to text Carolyn.

"Fuck fuck! fuck you apple" I shook my head at my dead battery.

I closed my purse and decided to take my dress off, to play along. It was better to play along and stay alive. I mentally wanted to kick myself as I realized I knew nothing about this guy, not even his name. I heard the shower turn on.

"Come in here and take a shower, with your heels on" he ordered

I walked into the bathroom and there he sat on the counter, smoking a cigar, waiting.

"Take everything off. Didn't you hear me?"

"Yes, yes. I'm sorry"

"I'm sorry, sir" he corrected me
