Charles parked the car in front of the bar where everyone was. I got out of the car, lightly ironed my dress, and looked around to see if Luca's car was there. Unfortunately for me, he hadn't arrived yet, which automatically meant that Gemma wasn't here either.
"Merda! "*shit* I mumbled under my breath, knowing that I would have to stay in the company of strangers for god knows how long.
"You coming, princess? " there's that sneer again from Charles.
Without answering, I followed him to the entrance of the club. Of course, it was so full of people inside that you couldn't breathe. The smell of cigarettes, alcohol and horny and sweaty people burned my nostrils. In order not to lose sight of where we were headed, I intertwined my fingers in Charles's hand. In response to this action of mine, I was pulled by his left side and willingly or unwillingly, I felt his hand slide down my waist and pull me close to him. I can't deny, he was quite attractive. The scent that wafted from him was filled with hints of lemon, musk, and something else I couldn't place, but it was nice.
After several long minutes and many people pushed our way, I stopped in front of the VIP booth, which unfortunately was full of men only, each better looking than the other. One of them seemed extremely familiar to me, but I dismissed the thought as I live in Florence, and everyone knows each other here.
"Boys, what up? Is the party going? Of course, we will get drunk Pierre!"
Charles was talking to everyone and I just stood there awkwardly and just looked around. One of the men at the table kept looking at me and smiling.
"Charles, aren't you going to introduce us to your girlfriend? Is this how you were taught to treat a lady?"
Everyone at the table looked at me sharply, as if I hadn't been there before. I felt a little awkward, but I tried to smile confidently. I will not allow a group of men to intimidate me.
"Sure, come here, beautiful. Guys this is Alessia, Luca's best friend, I'm her Uber today as her friends are running late."
Everyone greeted me with big smiles. At the same moment, the server came with two trays full of alcohol. It looked like there was going to be drinking, and I guess it wouldn't hurt to have a few and relax until Gemma and Luca come.
10:00 p.m
Two hours later I had had far more than a drink or two, and there was no sign of Gemma and Luca's arrival. Charles' friends were extremely funny and it was obvious that they partied quite often. I decided to indulge in dancing and headed to the dance floor. There were people all around me, bodies rubbing against each other and that was one of my favorite things about this club. I had slightly closed my eyes and had given myself completely to the music. Even though I was alone I quickly found girls to dance and go wild with. I could feel the eyes of the guys in the VIP booth, but I didn't have time to think about that right now.
*At the VIP booth*
"Charles, if you don't take her to the hotel tonight, we're going to fight. " Pierre turns and says with a playful wink.
"Dude, if I takes her home with me, Luca will personally cut off my manhood! He said she's off-limits."
"And by the way, she just disappeared somewhere. Should I look for her? " Daniel sounds slightly alarmed and without waiting for an answer he heads to where he last saw Allesia.
*Back to Allesia*
From so much alcohol and people, I was not able to take a breath and headed to the balcony of the club. The air was crisp, slightly humid, but extremely pleasantly warm. I sat down in one of the high chairs, continuing to drink my cocktail.
"Are you waiting for someone special?"
At that question, I quickly spun around only to see one of Charles's friends leaning against the door frame. I looked back at the city and quickly answer.
"Maybe yes, or maybe not. It depends. Are you someone special?"
At this question, I turned my whole body and with light steps started to approach the unknown man. From his side, I got a light throaty laugh and a big smile. That's the biggest smile I've ever seen. It lit up the whole space and certainly just by looking at it could make you smile.I stood in front of him and casually looked him over. Tall, with brown curly hair that was slightly flattened from the sweat, but still so good-looking. My gaze lingered on his exceptionally strong neck and shoulders. Around his neck hung a necklace with the number 3 on it. I continued to look at him, and he was not shy with his eyes either.
"Allesia, it's my pleasure, stranger," I said with a laugh and casually held out my hand to him.
"Daniel Ricciardo, nice to meet you."
He took my hand, but instead of shaking hands, he leaned in and planted a light kiss. His lips felt so gentle and soft on me that they sent chills down my spine.
The alcohol in me was talking, but there was nothing I could do. He was so charming and extremely attractive.
"If you want, we can sit on one of the benches, because my legs don't hold me anymore", I said, swaying slightly.
"Of course, I want to talk to you. You are extremely mysterious and interesting to me. I can't stop looking at you all night."
HELP!!! Why does it have to be so straight? Shit, how does this keep happening to me? Hope it's not some weird creeper. I chuckled at my last guess. I had to show off the self-confident Allesia otherwise this was going to be bad.
"I'm flattered, but the same goes for all your friends in that VIP booth."
That might sound harsher than it sounded in my head. Daniel laughed and pulled me closer to him with one hand. His touch made me press my tights together. He exuded a dominant energy that I definitely liked more than I wanted to admit. Lost in my thoughts, I hadn't realized when he was so close to me, whispering in my ear.
"Do you think so Blondie? Maybe you're right, but if you know that I was the only one looking at you, how needy you were dancing less than 10 minutes ago. How you would tilt your head back and close your eyes as a sign of how much you enjoyed feeling people's bodies around you. How much do you like people to look at you and admire you? Don't lie to me, your body speaks for you. Or how even here and now you pressing your tights so hard, just to try to muffle the throbbing feeling between those amazing long, soft skin legs of yours."
I was stunned by his words. He wasn't lying. Everything he said was true, but I won't do him the favor of confirming it. On the contrary, now it was my turn to fight back.
In one smooth and quick movement, I wrapped my fingers around the chain around his neck, pulling him to face me.
"Look, Daniel... I stopped mid-sentence just to lean into his muscular neck and plant a light kiss. I think these games can be played by two, oh no sorry, they must be played by two. Let me ask you, did you enjoy watching me rub on strangers so much that the moment I was out of sight you came looking for me? Hmm, lover boy? Don't you have anything to say? To be fair, I think I'll go back to the others. Pierre looks like a big sweetie who will probably take me home tonight."
After my sentence, Daniel squeezed my thigh and I moved slightly from my seat. I didn't stay idle for long, I kissed his neck again, mouthing as he loosened his grip on me and I quickly pulled away. With quick and smooth movements I moved towards the exit, and then I heard.
"ALESIA, dammit!!" Daniel's frustration was heard
