I'm in the bathroom doing my eyeliner, holding my eyelid down with my free hand, layla is celebrating.. Taylor swift? She's a funny girl..
The club music is blasting some R&B music. There's a girl barfing in the stall behind me and her friends and trying to comfort her, but the sound is awful.
I fix my satin black dress. It's cute and has a slit up my thigh. I've curled my straight hair, and I feel good tonight.
I leave the bathroom and navigate through the crowds, occasionally apologizing to people with sloppy movements that bump into me
I made my way to a tipsy Lydia and lexie texting her husband
"This place is so fun!" Lydia slurred with a half smile
"I bet, Lay-Lay!" She glares at me before her eyes widened and she slaps lexies shoulder "Oh em gosh. Don't move, but isn't that your hot neighbor?" She whispers to me, and I silently panic, trying not to move as lexie nods in confirmation.."Can I buy you a drink?" A dark voice sends shivers down my spine. I turn slowly and meet a pair of deep green eyes that consume me like a void.
"Haven't you paid for enough?" I mumbled
He lets out a throaty laugh, and I melt and gush into my underwear.
"50 dollars isn't much.. but you didn't answer my question."
I nod shyly, and he takes my handHis hand consumes my smaller one and my eyes trail over the veins under his tan skin, I shudder and my legs start carying me to meet his long strides over to the bar where a woman is making out with a man but he quickly shoos them away
"What is it gonna be?" He looks at me
"Uh- oh uhm.. just a vodka martini.."
He smirks with a surprised face, but he doesn't ask.
After a couple of seconds, I'm handed a decent sized glass. "Why did you pay for me? You don't even know my name."
He stares off blankly into the bar. "I wanted to be generous."
"Your loud car isn't generous to my ears." It slips out faster than I can stop myself, and I internally shriek and face palm
He just chuckles. "I apologize, raven."
Raven? I'm not a bird..
