The music played high above us as we were dancing like nobody was watching.
Bella traced her fingers over my cheek:
"Come closer, Ellie..." She whispered.
I did it, and she gave me a totally unexpected passionate kiss in front of everyone.
My body reached high temperatures I didn't think I could handle before today.
Her eyes sparkling:
"Hey, are you okay?" She asked me like nothing happened.
"Hmm... sorry, I stopped breathing..." I swallowed hardly.
She smiled in a teasing way: "That was the goal..."
"Bella, it's getting too hot in here..." I said waving my hand in a gesture of nonchalance, trying to keep things casual, even though my heart was racing.
"You're right..." She giggled.
"And I'm getting thirsty... shall we go to the bar? Maybe we can catch a drink."
I nodded to her.
Everyone already had a beer so we didn't have to wait our turn at the bar.
I can tell Bella and I were the only people not drunk or high in that party.
I leaned against the bar counter, catching my own breath, Bella was right next to me.
"You get to choose any drinks, as long as it is an iced one, please."
"As you wish..." She replied.
My face must have been red because Bella kept looking at me laughing good-naturedly.
"Hi!" Bella greeted the bartender.
The girl slowly looked up.
"Hi..." She smirked, raising an eyebrow in a surprised expression.
"What can I get you?"
"Two iced cokes, please."
Suddenly the girl let out a teasing laugh, full of challenge.
She leaned out slightly and came dangerously close to Bella.
"I'm sorry, sugar, we don't have drinks for minors..." She smiled mischievous.
What a stupid joke...
I glanced at Bella who had remained impassive and calm.
"Come again?" She asked, not at all amused.
The girl laughed again, her eyes sparking with mischief.
"Maybe you should get something stronger than just a coke..."
HMM.... that's not fun.
Her comment lingered in the air, daring Bella to react at it.
I can see the sparkle irritation flash across Bella's face now.
She was, if possible, even prettier with that electricity crackling her around.
"Well, it's up to us to decide, and we still want those two cokes... so, can you do that or not?" She asked with a tight smile.
I can sense from her tone that she clearly wasn't in the mood for more jokes.
And neither was I, for the matter.
The girl shrugged her shoulders: "Well... I can do this exception for you..." She said satisfied, clearly addressing only Bella.
Can she just... stop, now?
Bella's eyes shifted toward me, she smiled slightly, as to reassuring me or to offer some comfort.
Her gaze lingered a little longer, sending a wave of warmth through me, I smiled back, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Here's your iced cokes..."
The girl spoke.
She still didn't let go of the bottle in front of Bella, squaring her dress from top to bottom.
Hmm.... I'm highly suspicious NOW that she is clearly interested in Bella...
A strange anger is rising inside me and I can't explain it.
"You can let the bottle go now..." Bella smiled nervously.
