"Name?" the bouncer asked as Ezra walked right up to the front of the club.
"Mia Camesly." Ezra said without hesitation.
"You're not on the list." He said, putting his clipboard down.
"Can you please make an exception?" Ezra pouted as she looked up to the man with big eyes. "I'm just trying to have some fun."
The man looked the girl up and down. She frowned as she looked up at him. He shrugged and let her passed the velvet rope.
Inside, music blasted and people sang along poorly. The floor shook as the hot bodies moved around. Smoke filled the air making it foggy. LED lights flashed around the room. No matter how much she hated it, this was what she was used to. It was her life.
Pushing through the crowd, Ezra made it to the center of the dance floor. Swaying her hips and moving her arms to the music, Ezra blended in with the crowd.
After a little while of not seeing her target, Ezra moved towards the bar. As she neared, her eyes landed on the man she was looking for. He sat at the bar drinking a dark liquor.
Ezra took a breath and strut over to the man. Stumbling as she walked, Ezra caught the attention of Ty. As she neared Ezra fell into the man. He caught her hips, helping her up.
"Woah, you alright there?" He asked.
"Sorry," Ezra giggled, taking the seat next to him. "I'm just having a little too much fun."
"Looks like it," he chuckled.
"Buy me a drink?" Ezra asked as she twirled her hair around her finger.
The man looked down from where he was looking behind her. He shook his head as he watched her.
"I think you've drank enough," He said while his eyes moved back to where he was looking.
Confused, Ezra glanced back to see where he was looking. Behind her two men were sitting at the bar further down. The drank and laughed loudly. Turning back to the man, she saw him frown. That's when it all clicked.
"I'm sorry," Ezra frowned. "My boyfriend just recently broke up with me. He convinced all my friends that I cheated on him."
Putting her head in her hands she faked a sniffle. The man was taken back at the seemingly heartbroken girl in front of him. Ezra raised her head from her hands, her face now red with glossy eyes.
"Sorry sorry," She said as she fanned her face. "I shouldn't be crying to you about my boy troubles."
"It's alright, I understand. Do you want to go get some air?"
"That'd be great," Ezra said getting off her chair.
Walking towards the back of the club Ezra knew she was victorious. Pushing open the back door she glanced around. Not seeing any of the boys, she stalled.
Leaning against the wall, Ezra took a deep breath. Pretending to wipe her tears, she shook her head.
"It's alright," Ty said. "You'll find someone new."
"Thank you." Ezra smiled at him.
The two sat outside for a couple minutes as Ezras pink face went back to normal. Her glossy eyes dried and Ryder was no where to be seen.
"I think we should head back in," Ty said as he grabbed the door handle.
"Just a few more minutes, please" Ezra asked.
"I'm going in," the man said, now annoyed.
Ezra grabbed his arm, stopping him from grabbing the door. He groaned as he ripped his arm from her, Moving in front of him, Ezra blocked the door.
