The music in the club blasted in my ears. I downed drink after drink to avoid the well the void in me. It's been about a month since i've seen Ellie and I keep trying to forget about her but my mind continues to wander there.
"A shot?" Tyler asked me and I nodded as he handed it to me
We downed the shot and I closed my eyes as the intoxicating liquid made me numb to what I was feeling inside, only temporarily. I got up to go to the bar for another drink. Just one more. I looked and at the end of the bar there she was. She wore a red dress and some black heels. Some guy was leaning into her pressed against her back whispering in her ear. I felt my blood boiling. But then I remembered her words, there's no us. I looked away and felt someone next to me.
"Stalking me?" I heard and I looked up at her next to me. Her sweet perfume filled the air next to me and I almost smiled at the smell. I ordered my drink and the bartender gave it to me.
"So you're ignoring me." She said
"If I don't I might do something I'll regret" I said sipping on the drink
She stared at me as I did.
"And what is-""Hey, there you are. Mind if I steal her from you?" The guy who was pressed against her earlier came up to us. He was such a generic brand of guy that I almost rolled my eyes.
I looked at her as she stared at me.
"She's not mine to steal" I said and looking back at my glass not daring to look at her because my resolve would tear down in an instant.He grabbed her hand and pulled her away. I went back up to my table and sat in my seat and of course it was facing the dance floor. I took a sip of my drink as they danced. He pulled her close to his body and she pressed against his chest and grinded slowly up against him. His hands ran along her body and my jaw clenched. She threw her head back as his hand slowly crept up her thigh. Her dress rose at their movements. I couldn't help the bile that rose in my throat. This was pure torture and I couldn't do anything to help it.
She made eye contact with me knowingly. I know she knew how much control it took to keep me in my seat and from marching over there and putting a bullet through his head, but she wasn't mine and I think that was the most disappointing thing about the situation. I had no right. I looked away and downed my drink.
Soon a group of women joined our table and one was all over me. I would be enjoying it if my dick would also show up to the party. She did nothing for me. The girl sat on my lap whispering sweet nothings in my ear. She licked up from my ear to my neck. I looked over to see Ellie still dancing but not as close as before. Just watching me and this girl. Bingo. Just a look at her and my partner was ready to play. The girl felt on me and smiled.
"Someone's happy" She said before crashing her lips onto mine. I pulled away to see Ellie now done dancing just looking at me with a look I couldn't quite pinpoint. The girl in my lap kissed down my neck and grabbed on my hard self. I fought the moan as she rubbed me through my pants. I grabbed her hand to stop her, but I heard a voice.
"Leave" Ellie said standing next to me and throwing daggers at the girl
"Who are you?" She stood up from my lap asking Ellie who got closer in her face.
"Your worst nightmare if you don't remove your hands from him. Now fuck off." Ellie said and I've never seen the look in her eyes before but I fucking loved it.
The girl hurried off and I looked at Ellie.
"You scared away the fun darling" I said smirking"We're leaving. Let's go" She said and I stood up towering over her. I fixed my hair and she looked at me staring at my neck.
"What?" I asked and she rolled her eyes walking towards the exit. I followed her out and she didn't say a word. I grabbed her by her waist backing her up into the alley by the club.
"Let me go" She said trying to push me off but with no avail
"What's wrong?" I asked her making her look at me
"Don't touch me after your hands was all over that bitch." She said bitterly
I shook my head and laughed humorlessly.
"I do seem to remember that assholes hands all over you. You even enjoyed it."I yelled
"And you didn't enjoy her?" She yelled pointing at my still very erect self
"Because I was looking at you! Fuck! ." I said so pissed and horny and drunk and did I mention horny?
I walked towards my car and I heard her heels clicking behind me.
"Miles you can't drive. You're drunk." She said
"I'll take my chances okay. Don't worry about me. You don't have to worry about me anymore" I said to her and she tried to snatch my keys from me and I moved my hand away from me. She was too short to get in my reach for the keys. I smirked and then she kneed me in my groin and I leaned against my car.
"Fuck" I said and she grabbed my keys
"You're not driving" She said and I backed her into the wall
"Not funny darling" I said staring at her as we both breathed heavily. I stared at her lips and she stared at mine.
I had to remember what she told me. What she said. I cannot fall. I moved away from her and stumbled back when she pulled me down to her lips and pressed hers against mine. I moaned pulling her into me and backing us up into my car.
