(AN: Hey everyone, sorry it took me so long to get on here and update! I had surgery on my ankle about a month ago and its taken its toll! All ive done on here is read 5 Seconds of Summer fanfics and cry because I cant have the bassist or the drummer haha. Im such an epic failure at life and an even worse author at making everyone wait. Nonetheless, here is chapter 16! Enjoy loves! -Opal )
NOW
You know how when its two in the morning and you cant sleep so all you do is think back on all the things that you did wrong in your life, or that you did right? That was how my night was going.
I was doing just that, staring up the ceiling. Ezekiel was out for the night, following up on a lead that Stella had came up earlier that day. My weeks were dwindling, and I had all the faith in my best friend, but she wasnt getting anywhere.
I started thinking and the thinking led me to Louis.
THEN
The Underground was becoming a very common spot for us to hang out on weekends. Thankfully Justin usually worked his 24 hour shifts then, leaving me to escape. The first few times I went there, it scared me. I wasnt on the same level as Stella, the smoke, the music, the strobe lights, all intimidated me beyond belief. That was until Louis started making things alot more enjoyable.
We were dancing on the dance floor, "Animals" blaring so loudly it felt like my eardrums were going to rupture. I had managed to lose Ezekiel in the crowd, but it wouldnt be long. It never was. He always found me.
Louis slipped his hands up my arms, smearing the glitter that I was doused in earlier that day, thanks to Stella. I shivered. Everytime he touched me, it was indescribable. He pulled me against him and he nuzzled into my neck as I danced in front of him.
Being with him was enthralling.
I could feel his canines cross my neck and I shivered. I was hyper alert, hyper aware of everything. I looked up at him and saw his eyes flash blue. Another color to store. Blue meant he wanted to jump my bones. I could handle that.
I ran my hands up his shirt and felt his stomach tense. I was still dancing, but now he was still. I traced the hard lines of his abs and I could feel him growl even though I couldnt hear it.
I knew I shouldnt keep going, hell I didnt even know why I was doing what I was doing to begin with, but I knew I couldnt stop.
Quickly, he pulled me from the floor and to the back of the club and out the door. No one was in the hallway, and the beat of the bass was still thumping slightly, despite the now closed door. Louis pushed me up against the wall, it was becoming almost habit to feel the cold concrete wall against my back.
My thoughts ceased as he attacked my lips roughly, kissing me so hard that I was sure there was going to be bruises. I gripped the hem of his shirt and pushed myself into his kiss as hard as I could. He bit my lip and I gasped opening my mouth in surprise and he swiftly took that as an opening to use his tongue. I groaned as I tasted the slight taste of my blood on his tongue and then the metallic taste was gone.
My hands went up and threaded themselves through his hair and then he grabbed them slamming them against the wall behind me. I could feel his body harden as I pushed myself against him. He still held my hands captive above my head, and then he pinned both my wrists with one hand and let the other one trail down my body.
He trailed his hand up my dress, grabbing a hold of my lace panties and pulling them down my hip slightly. He let go of my wrists and they fell down to his shoulders as he knelt down in front of me. "What...what are you..." I stammered as he pulled my panties off of my hips completely and to my ankles.
"You can always tell me no," he said smirking up at me from his kneeling position on the floor. "But I doubt you will," he told me and then he lifted my dress up and over his head.
I felt his warm breath and then that was it. The door opened to the club and then Louis was thrown against the opposite wall with enough force that the wall started cracking. I hastily pulled up my panties and saw Ezekiel looking at me fuming. I couldnt catch my breath for more than two reasons.
Louis was shaking his head and getting up from the floor, when Ezekiel grabbed my arm and pulled me down the hall, up the stairs and outside of the club. Louis followed, still a little dazed.
"What is your problem Azalee!" Ezekiel exclaimed as he let go of my arm and started pacing. "Im sorry, I didnt...I dont know..." I couldnt think. "I felt all of that did you know that!" he asked me. I looked behind me and saw Louis coming down the hall to the door, still rubbing the back of his head. "Can we not do this here," I pleaded.
Ezekiel stopped pacing and then took a deep breath. "We're leaving now," he told me and I nodded. Louis walked out the door. "Im going home," I informed him. "Can you let Stella know please?" I asked him. He looked a little pissed,his jaw tensed as he clenched it. "yeah," he stated and then he turned and walked away.
Before I went to follow Ezekiel to his car I saw Louis stare and punch a hole in the concrete wall.
*****
Ezekiel stopped at a hotel on the way back. I looked up at him. I sent your brother a text from your phone saying you were staying at Stellas tonight, then I called her parents and compelled them to call them and confirm," he said as he parked the car. "You can compel without being face to face?" I asked. "Do you ever...try to compel me?" I questioned. "You know I cant, we cant compel each other, only humans," he said. I looked out the car window at the Hilton in front of us. "What are we doing here?" I stammered. I looked back at him and saw his eyes shining blue. I swallowed roughly.
"I felt everything you felt Azalee," he said huskily. "I know that since you cant transition...your emotions, hormones are tripping you up. I want you to be able to experience whatever it is that you want, somewhere safe and with someone that wont hurt you," he told me and he grabbed my hand.
I looked up with him with wide eyes. "Do you feel what Im feeling now?" I implored. He nodded. "Fear. Intrigue. Heat," he said licking his lips. I clenched my legs and closed my eyes. "You'll be somewhere safe, and more comfortable than a concrete wall," he told me.
I almost wished Stella was there to make the choice for me. But then again I knew what her answer would be. Start acting like a big girl and make your own choices. Live your damn life. So I looked at him and nodded. "Okay," I whispered.
