Lia's P.O.V
"I'm so wastedd." I said in a slurry voice.
"Where are they?" I said particularly to no one.
This club is so lit and crowded. And with all the blinding disco lights, it's really hard to recognize people, especially since everything around me is currently spinning due to my heavy drinking.
Maling-mali talagang pumayag pa kong sumama. I already expected a very bad hangover tomorrow. Pero wala na kong magagawa. At least I had fun for an hour or two.
I really want to go home and sleep but I can't just leave my friends here. That's one of our party rules: 'pumunta kaming kompleto, uuwi kaming kompleto.'
Good thing is that I'm not that 'drunk-drunk'. I can still think clearly. I just need to sober up for a bit then I'll find them. There's no used to find them on the dance floor if I'm this tipsy, maiipit lang ako with all those bodies. It's really hard to find the way out, in fact, kagagaling ko lang doon.
I make my way to the smoking area which is just beside the club where people used to sober up. I just hope na walang tao don and if meron man, please wag sanang couple na nag memakeout.
When I arrived there, fortunately, there's just one guy na nakasandal sa pader. He seems so serious and oblivious to his surroundings while typing something on his phone. Maybe he's texting someone, but that's none of my business. I just ignored him and continue walking down the stairs.
After reaching the last step, I lazily sat at it and lean my back on the railway. I get my phone from my back pocket and sent a message to our group chat asking their location and if they're still alive.
I turned off my phone and inhaled the fresh air that is gently blowing my hair, it's November so the air is very chilly. After a while, I felt goosebumps forming in my arms.
I'm wearing a white sleeveless crop top, high heels, and mom jeans, I know that it's not the perfect attire for this type of weather. But after getting out on the sweaty hot atmosphere of the club I really didn't mind.
In my peripheral vision, I saw the guy before finally noticing that he have a companion. He stares at me for some minute while I pretend to close my eyes. He goes back to his phone and I take that opportunity to 'observe' him.
The first thing I notice is his messy hair not the ugly messy but a disheveled unkempt hair that perfectly compliments his face, it's a bit long so when he slightly bend, some strand of his hair falls and covers his forehead like bangs.
After his hair, the next thing I noticed is his well-defined sharp nose and jaw. His jaw clenched and unclenched every once in a while which makes me believe that he is in a serious convo with whoever he's texting. Also
ang tangos ng ilong niya which perfectly compliments his looks.He has a piercing in his left ear. Which I find... hot... Moving on.. his upper lip is thin while his lower lip is kinda thick and... pouty? It also does not get unnoticed by me how hard he greets his teeth making him look like he's on the verge of exploding.
His eyes are covered by his bangs so I didn't bother with it for now.
Checking out his body. Oh, man. HE.. is HOT. He's not buff but he has the perfect muscles here and there. Even from afar, I can see his long fingers typing furiously in his phone and he also has veiny arms. He's wearing a navy blue polo shirt where the first three buttons of it are undone which makes me have a glimpse of his upper chest. He's also wearing black ripped jeans and white Nike shoes.
I can say that his dark manly outfit compliments his very mestizo skin.
I'm the tallest girl around my cousins and friends since I'm 5'8 and a half nearly 5'9, but compared to him whose height I think is around 6'7 makes me feel belittled. In any case, I think we'll look like a perfect couple duo, but sadly I don't even know if he's already in a relationship.
Overall he gives the aura of a rich bad boy. Why rich you mean? The Rolex around his right arm, the Mercedes-Benz keys hooked in his belt and the newly released i-phone he's using right now tells and makes me conclude that he comes from a very wealthy background.
Even without that, I'm sure that with just one look at him you'll know he's rich with the aura and vibes he's giving. His body screams the word 'alagang alaga since birth'.
Sayang, he's out of my league, type ko pa naman. I just know that he's very high maintenance. Di bale there's still more fish in the sea.
To my surprised, he suddenly looked up and our gazes meet. I didn't budge nor avoid his eyes, I mean what for? I have nothing to be ashamed of... okay fine, maybe I'm a little creeped checking him out here in the dark. If someone does that to me, I'll also be creeped out. But what's done is done at least I learned a lesson that don't check someone out publically especially in the dark.
I just looked directly into his eyes. His dark silhouette because of the lamp not far from us makes his face more defined.
He have emerald eyes which I find fascinating and enchanting. It's my first time seeing one in real life I didn't know that it was this beautiful.
He also has thick eyebrows and long eyelashes, definitely longer than an average man.
Lalake ba talaga to? He's very passable to be a girl with konting ayos, I'm sure that he will have a very long line of guy admirers.
Back to the present, he continues staring at me and so does I. I'm not gonna back out just because of his intimidating gaze.
I didn't realize that it became a staring contest between the two of us. No one wants to lose the unspoken battle and I don't know how many minutes pass by as we just continue staring at each other with no trace of any emotion on our faces.
