You taste foreign
And I know you can see
The cord break away
'Cause tonight I feel like more

When you're around me, I feel like you don't see me. You don't recognize me. Throughout the day, you pass me in the halls. I see you but you don't look my way. You don't acknowledge me. You don't give me a smile or say my name.

You sit in front of me but never look me in the eye when we're assigned as partners. You see me as a student. An innocent girl. A virgin.

But I want you to see me when I'm at my best.

With a few drinks in me, I'm confident. I'm more radiant. I'm the one dancing without a care in the world. I'm the one that has all the boys' attention. Except yours.

And I crave your attention. I want your eyes to be on me. I want you watching me and wishing you could be with me.

I push the boy I had in front of me, away. His lips detach from mine. "I'm bored of you." I tell him. "You can leave."

I wave the blonde frat boy away and he gives me a drunken pout before scurrying away. Probably to find another girls face to suck on. I can't help it when my eyes land on the same guy. The one I've been watching all night.

It sucks that I can't have you, Vinnie Hacker.

I grab my glass, downing the last of my vodka that I mixed with a bunch of other alcohol. That will probably land me in the hospital with doctors pumping my stomach but I didn't care. My eyes shift to you again.

You're standing in the corner of the other room, laughing with your friends. You're hiding your hair with a hoodie. You're only wearing it to cover those tattoos, the ones that I can't get enough of. You pushed your hair back tonight and now I can see the perfect structure of your face.

I suck my teeth, realizing I'm never going to get your attention. Well...actually, I'm not going to get your attention just sitting here. I get up from my seat at the tall table. And once I stand, those previous drinks are rushing through my blood. I grin, feeling the buzz in my body electrify my skin to life.

Everyone's dancing around me to the music and I lift my hands to go in my hair. I'm in my own world, letting my hands feel on my body and moving my hips slow. The lights that have been flashing all night, get lower in brightness and I can't see a thing. I look over to see you.

I dance by myself for a while, practically burning off the alcohol I consumed all night.

God, I can't stop thinking about you. It's a miracle I can focus on graduating college when you're on my mind. I'm not going to be able to get you off my mind unless I sleep with someone tonight. But I have to remember that it's a temporary fix. It won't last long before you take over my thoughts again.

I look over at you again, smiling because I can see you laughing. That smile does things to me.

Your friend leans into your right ear, talking to you. You stop laughing and at that moment, your eyes meet mine. I can't look away.

Vinnie starts walking my way and I turn around, moving my hips with each beat. Once he's close, I can feel his body heat. Or maybe I had too much to drink.

"You can't get enough of me, can you?"

I stop dancing when his breath is so warm in my ear that it makes my skin buzz.
