Forgeting everything

It's already Saturday. We have spent the whole day walking around the city, seeing places, visiting museums. I'm really enjoing it.

In the end they were right, I needed this, it had been a long time since I had such a good time. It had been so long since I had enjoyed life....

''Are you ready?''. My friend asks from the room. ''I used to be the one who was always the last to get ready''.

I close my make-up and put it in the bag. ''I'm almost ready, you are really annoying sometimes, huh'' I spray a bit of perfume. ''You didn't get me my usual perfume''.

''I know, but I liked that one better, it attracts more guys". She looks me up and down when she sees me. ''My god what a hottie, it's a good thing we have separate rooms, I don't want to hear how you fuck tonight''.

"Soph, I have a boyfriend''.

We grab our bags, turn everything off and leave the room. ''Ale, you live with a man who has you tied up because of work, you don't have a boyfriend''.

''I don't want any man...''.

''You say that now, until a blond, blue-eyed Englishman approaches you to dance with him, after three drinks, you don't even think about it''.  We got out of the elevator to the hotel lobby.

''Damn how beautiful you look''. Lucas sighs. ''If I didn't know you as sisters for years, we'd have a threesome and forget about going out''.

My friend and I laugh at the same time. ''Get those images out of your mind''. We started walking, following Lucas, who knows where the club is.

I didn't want to get too complicated tonight, and I've opted for a black strapless dress, mid-thigh, with a plunging neckline and a half-open back.

''Should we make a bet on who will take someone to bed tonight?''. Lucas proposes. ''I say Ale''.

''I agree, I've already told her before we left''.

''And I told you I don't want anything, I just want to drink and enjoy''. I repeat. ''Besides, the one who gets a girl every time we go out is you ''. I point to Lucas. ''So don't bet anything, because you are going to lose''.

''This is not my territory, plus, just look at the way everyone looks at you as you walk around here''. He puts an arm around my shoulders. ''Don't be so stubborn, you can have a good time in many ways''.

Alba approaches me from the other side. ''I put condoms in your suitcase''. She points.

[...]

It's been about two hours since we arrived at the club, it's two in the morning, and we can't be having a better time. I think we've had three or four rounds of drinks already.It's a pretty hidden place, but surprisingly there are quite a few people. It has exclusive areas with few people, a large serving bar, a giant dance floor, and of course a DJ bringing the party to life.

''Want another one?'' I laugh at her. ''What are you laughing at?''.

''We always have the same conversation, I love how bad you tolerate alcohol Sophie ''.

''That's a lie''. She shouts.

''You still have to drink more, look for Lucas, I think we have lost him''. I say in her ear and then make my way to the bar.

I look around for our friend but I don't see anyone. I take a last sip of my Martini and leave the glass on the bar. I ask the bartender for another one and sit down on a stool to wait. We haven't stopped all day, my legs are shaking.

''Hello lady''. A rather young guy comes up to me'. 

He keeps talking but I don't pay any attention to him. I order a shot while I wait for my drink. ''Leave me alone''. I tell him, but he doesn't seem to care.

''Get out''. Someone pushes me towards the opposite side of the boy, as it gets in between us. ''Leave her alone, now''. He has a really deep, rough voice.

The boy seems to leave, but I don't even bother to look.  ''Ale! Lucas is with the DJ, there are few people with him, I'll wait for you there''. My friend tells me in a hurry, and leaves quickly.

''Thank you''. I say to the bartender who hands me my drink.

''Did the boy do something to you?''.

I immediately turn my head, but I can't see him clearly because of the moving lights, and the blurred vision. ''I was managing perfectly''. In one gulp I drink the shot, something that seems to surprise him.

''Can I ask you to dance? I haven't been able to take my eyes off you since you came in''. He continues.

True, I said I didn't want men, or to make out with anyone tonight. But I've lost count of how much I've had already drink, at this point in the night I don't really care how it's going to end. I don't even know how to get to wherever my friends are.

I don't answer him, I just walk away with my back turned looking him straight in the eyes, and a smile appears on his face. I wink at him and this prompts him to slowly approach me.

''So, what brings a beautiful European girl here?". He asks with his two hands on my hips. ''May I ask where exactly are you from?''.

''I'm from Italy, you could say I've been forced out of my life for a few days''. I drink from my glass, and put a hand on his chest to prevent him from coming closer than necessary. ''And you, where are you from, and what are you doing here?''.

He bites his lower lip, he seems to be amused by how drunk I am, and I have to say, with alcohol inside of my blood, I find him too attractive.

''I'm from Chile, I'm here for a few days for work''. His gaze exchanges between my lips and my body. ''Your plan is to talk all night?''.

The hand I had on his chest slides down his shoulder and I stretch my arm across it, getting closer to him. ''I don't know, you tell me what you want from me, you're the one who came closer''. He raises an eyebrow. ''And also, isn't it your role as a man, to pick up girls?''.

His laugh awakens my senses. His eyes pierce into me, making me tremble from top to bottom. ''Maybe, but it all depends on what the lady wants to do, I would never force any girl''.

I bring my face close to him, to the point of almost touching his mouth, while my fingers play with his hair. ''The lady is naughty tonight, and she doesn't want to think about what's right and what's wrong''.

Fuck, I don't even recognize myself tonight, but something about this man unlocks all my senses, and just the sight of him.

He takes me by the hand and leads me after him to one of the private spaces I mentioned before. He says goodbye to a group of people sitting at a table, some of them laugh at him when they see me behind him.

''You still have time to say no, I can get you a ride''. He whispers in my ear as we walk towards the exit. I stop in the crowd of people on the dance floor and kiss him without thinking.

One of his hands slips down my back under my dress. ''Better not think anything tonight''. I whisper in a sigh.

''Fuck you're not wearing anything underneath''. He bites my lips. ''Let's go''.

With a hand on my waist he leads me to the exit. We approach a black sport Audi. ''Are you going to kidnap me?''.

''Just for one night''. His eyes travels over my body before he opens the passenger door. ''I'm Pedro''.

''Alessa''.

I hope I'm not making any mistakes...
