I'll be your mirror (wlw, teacherxstudent)

chapter 24

disclaimer: smut

"Just a second, I'll change." I tell Kiara and go through the crowd in the bar towards the bathroom.

Going in to a stall, I quickly remove the hoodie I was wearing, revealing the dark green short mesh dress underneath.

I touch up my makeup, tapping my hands on my lips over the cherry lipstick. I do look hot, not going to lie.

Still, if Alicia doesn't talk to me, I think I might cry.

"You look beautiful." I hear a familiar voice say from behind me.

I look at her through the mirror and smile as I say, "You look beautiful as well. I love your hair."

Kaylee laughs and says, "Why, thank you." She goes to wash her hands asking, "Where is the gang?"

"Kiara's outside. Adrian's talking with the other bartender. And Lara's running late today."

She nods and asks, "Still single?"

I laugh replying, "Yeah, still single." Technically, I'm still single...

"That's still so hard to fathom. You're really beautiful, Maya." She says.

I blush saying, "Thank you."

"My time's up. My boss will kill me if he sees me gone for more than a minute." She says, slightly sad.

"It's okay. Go, you're going great."

"Thank you. You're the first person who's said that." She smiles. Before leaving, she winks at me after saying, "If you need anything, you know where to find me."

She seems like a good person. Her boss should be the one to quit.

I put the hoodie and all of my makeup in my bag. Moving past all the sweaty people, I go towards the table Adrian pre booked for us.

Kiara, Lara and Adrian, they're all already here with drinks in front of them as they chat in front of the circular table.

"Non alcoholic for you." Lara says passing me a glass as I sit besides her.

"Ay why non alcoholic?"

"Come on. Try having no alcohol once." She says and I ignore her going to take the beer that's in front of her.

She snatches it away and Adrian says, "Miss Moore won't have fun dealing with your drunk ass."

"One sip."

All three of them shake their head.

"Just one." I plead.

Finally, Lara groans and says, "Ugh fine. Just one."

She gives her glass to me and I smirk taking it to my mouth. Before I can take a mouthful, she snatches it away making me pout.

"I know how you are."

I whine and she says, "You're done. That's it."

I look at Kiara to support me but she says, "Those eyes won't work on me like they do on our bhabhi."

They laugh and I roll my eyes. "All of you are cruel."

"Whatever." Lara replies. "By the way, where is Miss Moore?"

"I didn't see her anywhere." Adrian says.

"She probably didn't hear us..." I say. Or she really isn't interested...I don't even want to think of that second possibility.

"Don't overthink. It isn't even eight yet." Kiara says, calming my worries.

"Let's go dance." Lara says, dragging me to the dance floor.
