Always and Forever (PAUSED)

Chapter 21

Cara's POV:

We all quickly jumped out of the car, Alexa politely opening my door for me as I carefully slid out. She shut the door behind us as we made our way up to the building. It had a bright neon LED sign hanging up above the doors, and a bouncer dressed in all black infront of the doors.

We quickly went into the line, as we got closer and closer to the bouncer.

"Are you guys sure this is going to work?" Ethan asks us, and we all groan simultaneously.

"Yes, it's going to work. It did when we did this the first time, and It will work now too." Alexa says sternly, as shes the first in line. She gives her ID to the bouncer, as he analyzes it carefully.

"You're good" He nods to alexa, who politely enters the building. Then it was me, then Mia, then Ethan.

The loud R&B music blared into all of our ears as we entered the building. There was a bar in the corner, with neon flashing lights hanging all around the area. There were couples and groups of friends partying, as the DJ was playing music on the stage.

"Im gonna go get us shots" Ethan says, as he walks off to the bar.

"Come with me" Alexa whispers into my ear, as she places her hand on the small of my back, causing a light shiver to run down my spine as she guides me away from our group of friends.

She brings me over to a booth, as I sit down and moving closer to the wall, making room for her to slide in next to me .

"How was your day today?" She questions me, sliding in further next to me. Her arm easily finds its way behind my head, as I rest my head onto her shoulder, snuggling into her warmth.

"Good, we leave for college soon. I just don't know how to feel about it." I say, releasing some tension as I talk to my girlfriend.

"Well, we will be together the whole time, I can assure you that." She says calmly, her fingers moving up and down on my arm, soothing my nerves a bit.

"Promise?" I say to her. She chuckles lightly at my request, but holds up her pinky anyways.

I hold up mine, as I interlock our pinkies together. We both place a kiss on them, before breaking away into our same position again.

"I have shotsss" Ethan exclaims. He and Mia walk over to our booth, placing down a whole tray of shots.

"Thats a lot" I say to them, causing everyone to laugh slightly at me.

"It's okay baby, i'll drive tonight. You'll be safe with me." She says, placing a small kiss to the side of my temple.

"Thank you." I say to her. Me, Mia, and Ethan all pick up our shots, clicking the small glasses together before throwing back the burning liquid.

A few seconds later, we pick up another shot, throwing the liquid back down our throats.

We do this again, and again, and again.

At this point i'm a little buzzed, I think i've had maybe 8 shots now.

"Oh my god! You guys that guy is so cute" Ethan exclaims, shouting over the loud music that was blaring inside the club.

"Oh he is cute! Go get hime tiger!" Mia shouts to him. She quickly pushed him toward the guy, as we both scramble back to the booth we're my girlfriend was.

We giggle as we try to run in a straight line, only to fail terribly and run into a few people.

"Hey baby." Alexa says as she comes up to us.

"Babyy!" I say, throwing myself into her arms. She laughs lightly, wrapping her arms tightly around my waist. I place my head into the crook of her neck, causing her to place her chin on the top of my head.

"What did you give her?" Alexa asks Mia, who only shrugs in response.

"I don't know, maybe like... 8 shots? Oh, and a mixed drink. Wait, maybe two, I cant remember" Mia says, her mind scrambling trying to figure out an answer. She quickly gives up.

"Im going to dance, byeee" She says, before skipping away into the dance floor.

"Well princess, do you want to dance?" My girlfriend asks me. I rise from her chest, gasping loudly at her question.

"Yes! I want to dance so badd!" I say, quickly dragging her by her hand to the dance floor where Mia previously had ran off too.

Once we get to the middle of the dance floor, I let go of Alexa's hand.

She places her hands firmly on my waist, causing me to place my hands behind her neck, pulling her further into me. Her warm hands gripped my hips tightly, as she pushed my body against hers. A gasp leaves my lips at the sudden collision, yet I wish there was more room for us to take up.

I feel her breathing on my neck as her hands run up and down my spine, causing goosebumps to cover my whole body. My core lights up with a warmth as her hands roam further and further down, landing perfectly on my ass.

She cups my ass slowly with both of her hands, massaging it gently. Then, she quickly pulls me into her by my ass, causing me to let out a moan as my face hits her shoulder. I look up at her to see a small smirk displayed on her face, the bright purple and red strobe lights hitting all of her features just perfectly.

And suddenly, everything felt so much more sensual and intimate. She stares down into my eyes, as she slowly sways my hips to the beat of the music, before she quickly turns me around and dips me, my ass pressing against her core, with her hands pressing even harder into my waist.

Heat quickly strikes down to my core, the fire in me burning at an even faster pace, as I tried to hide how flustered I am.

"Beautiful" Alexa whispers in my ear, her hands running all over my body, as her lips hit the brink of my ear. I gasp lightly, as Alexa turns me around again, this time, flipping me so close to her that my boobs press to hers, and our faces so close that I could feel her hot breath against my face, and her heart pounding against mine.

"We need to leave." I whisper, before pulling away from her as I quickly grab her hand, pulling her toward our section, where I found Mia.

"Hey, me and Alexa are leaving." I say quickly, suddenly becoming impatient.

"Okayy, wait, where is Ethan?" She says, slowly sitting up from the couch, causing me and Alexa to look around the club.

"He went off with that guy" Alexa says, causing me and Mis to let out a small 'oh', as we both drunkenly giggle at the small error.

"Okay, it's time for us to go." Alexa says "Mia, I called you an Uber, we will see you tomorrow." Alexa says, as we both quickly say our goodbyes to Mia, as we walk out of the club.

We make our way to the familiar car Alexa had brought us in just a fee hours ago. She opens the passenger door for me, which I quietly thank her for, as she gets into the drivers seat herself.

She straps me into the seat, before putting on her own seatbelt and backing out of the parking lot. As we finally get onto the main road, Alexa places her right hand onto my thigh, rubbing her thumb over my sensitive skin.

The tiredness suddenly seeps in, as I wrap my hand around Alexa's, which was placed on my thigh, causing her to quickly look over to me.

"You can sleep baby, we will be home soon" She says, assuring me, causing me to rest my body against the car seat, leaning into the heated coziness as I fall into a state if unconsciousness.
