" I will start looking out for a job tomorrow " I spoke, while I chewed my fries. Watching Vivian nod in response with her eyes on her phone. " I hope I find one soon "
"Surely you will. With a brain and certificate like yours, any hospital will want you " not taking her eyes away from her phone while she spoke
" You say it like it is that easy " rolling my eyes at her, I chewed more of the fries
"Don't worry about it. Get out there and see for your self " she smiles " oh yes " placing her phone on the table, she leans forward in her chair " there is this new club, it opened like two weeks ago and I hear it's a real catch " with excitement in her tone
"And?" I leaned in as well sounding sarcastic
"And Weston happens to know a guy and you know what that means " wiggling her eyebrow
" how those Weston know a guy when he is so busy " with an eyebrow raised, she shrugs at my question
" I don't know " she grabs her drink and took a sip through the straw " anyways we are going tonight "
"don't you like, have to prepare for court next week, " I asked with concern " you are not supposed to be clubbing don't you think "
" hey " sounding authoritative, knowing very well that it doesn't work on me " this case is a headache ok, I need something to relieve my stress. " I raised an eyebrow at her " oh come on. Let's go, get drunk, get high and dance our problems away " still giving him that look " please!!!!!!" rumbling like a child " Cleo "
" yeah " shaking my head " whatever "
" yes!!!" With excitement in her tone. We are going tonight
*****************
Sitting quietly at the bar I watched Vivian dance with the crowd. The noise was heavy I could barely hear anything and music blasted from every corner of the room. The place was stuffy due to the population.
I watched as a young fellow danced behind Vivian, trying to gain her attention, his hand brushed her exposed back making her turn to him. She carried a bright smile and said something that I couldn't get even by reading her lips. Watching them exchange little conversation while moving their body, it was obvious the young fellow has fallen. I didn't blame him. With a face and body like Vivian not to forget her killer put fit. Every right-thinking man will be attracted.
" hello " suddenly interrupted by a voice that whispered into my ear. I flinch in shock
" oh Jesus " I turn to see an unfamiliar guy before me. Tall, blond hair, dark brown eyes, thin lips, perfect figure and hot. He smiles warmly making me relax
"Sorry. You seemed lost that..."
" oh, it's. Ok " cutting him off
" would you mind if I buy you a drink " still in that smile
" not at all " seating properly. I watched him call the attention of the bartender and we gave our order
" so tell me, what's a pretty girl like you doing here alone " with eyes focused on mine.
" am not alone " I looked away to find Vivian in the crowd, she was still with that person and they both seem to be enjoying each other's company
" friend or boyfriend?" He had curiosity in his tone. If this was his way of checking if I was single then it's cute " or...."
" friend "
" oh..." Nodding in understanding. There was a brief silence between us while he stared at me deeply, slowly making me feel uneasy. " I am lucky I guess "
" lucky?"
" I got to a pretty lady before anyone did," he said still not looking away
" is it like a race? "
" in here it is" nods slightly. " Look around " his eyes explored the room and then fell back at me " you had no idea how many had eyes on you, they were probably waiting for the right moment "
" eyes on me?" Amazed
" yeah. I am lucky to reach out first "
" and what makes you so confident? Because I didn't come with my boyfriend? " he bit his lower lips
" yeah. Which gives me a chance to flirt with you " he winks, slowly leaking his lips
" you are pretty straight forward " smiling at his words
" is that a red flag on your part ?" with an eyebrow raised
" No " I leaned forward in my chair as our drinks were served and reached for my glass " I like that " he also reached for his glass, drags it close to him then continues to stare at me
" why are you looking at me like that " nervously forcing a smile
" is it wrong to look at a pretty lady " I bit the tip of my lips, holding back my smile " I am Alex by the way " sticking his hand out for me to take. Instantly something told me to move away from him, not to take his hand. A strange feeling I couldn't explain, but why? He seems like a nice guy, why am I overreacting? " are you okay " calling me out of my thought.
" oh, yeah" Shaking my head. I reached out to take his hand when another hand caught mine taking me by surprise. "Haaa" a soft gasp escaped my lips due to the sudden electricity I felt from the touch
" I hate humans, especially crowded ones and you, dark soul, made me come here " a voice spoke. I lift my head to look at the person holding my hand and it was to my surprise that Man. That strange man who saved me that night, who I saw at my mother's burial. I wasn't seeing things, I wasn't acting crazy. He is real.
While he held my hand, his eyes didn't leave the shocked and terrified Alex
" my...my.. lo...." Finding it difficult to speak while he slowly got off his chair
" I see you're having fun," the man said " you have 5 minutes to leave this place and run "
" sir....sir?"
" NOW " the man's voice suddenly changed so did the aura around him. Immediately Alex vanished into the crowd with abnormal speed, taking me by surprise. The man turns around to look at me. Instantly our eyes met. Those amazing unique purple eyes " are you alright " his tone softens
" I.....i...i " I didn't even realize how shocked I was until I tried to speak. The man I thought was just an imagination truly exists and it seems like I was once again saved by him. Whoever Alex is or what he is. This man just saved me and I am sure of it. Looking into my eyes
" you will be fine," he says before letting go of my hand and about to leave. I didn't even realize when my body reacted. Jumping to a standing position I caught his hand. Immediately I felt that electricity once again. What is this? " you need something?"
"Who...who are you?" Throwing my question, There was a long silence between us we stood staring at each other, and I notice he was debating what to say or how to say it. Is it that difficult to answer such a question
" someone who brings you nothing but darkness, pain and sorrow," he said making me confused. Slowly taking his hand away from my grip he turns to leave once again, but I stopped him at his track once again
" ok, can I at least get your name?"
" you won't be needing it" he slowly turns to me " also. Stop getting yourself in a complex situation " with that he vanished into the crowd. I turn in confusion to see the bartender wasn't even paying attention, no one was. No one saw what just happen. Who the hell is that man?
