the lights of the club flashed around me. i sat at a booth with a few of my friends, including lando norris. lando sat across from me and stared at me most of the night. The drink in my hand was fruity and the thought of more alcohol made me gag. After four drinks i was not feeling good, and very far from happy. I watched as one of lando's "friends" laughed at his stupid jokes. Her name was magui, she was a model he had met just over a year ago.
"You are so funny" she said placing her hand on his arm. I wasn't sure if they had slept together or what was going on between them but i didn't like it. Even though, through our friends with benefits agreement, we had decided to be open, i felt a pang of jealousy as she flirted with him. He looked at me as she continued to try to grab his attention. She was touchy and was wearing very little clothes but still could not manage to keep his brown eyes on her. I stood up after quickly getting tired of her annoying voice and walked to the club bathroom. My hair was down in its natural curl formation. The red dress i had picked out now seemed ugly to me as i knew lando didn't like red very much and preferred black. Even though i knew this shouldn't bother me, it did. but what didn't bother me was the fact that i was wearing a color he didn't like and still i had his attention more than a girl basically showing her full tits. I reapplied lip gloss and left the bathroom for another drink. The thought of alcohol disgusted me, but the thought of having to sit by magui was even worse.
"Look whos back" lando said as i again sat next to him.
"Yep here i am" i said in an annoyed tone. Lando gave me a look as to ask if everything was ok, but i ignored it and took a drink of my vodka filled mixed drink. "So magui, tell me about yourself. I know your a model but lando doesnt really talk about you, so i know nothing." i said to annoy her.
Lando shot me a look. "You dont talk about me?" she pouted and looked up at him. She was now basically on top of the driver. Her behavior was giving me second hand embarrassment. She began to tell me about her life and i quickly zoned out. Once she was finished i poured my drink down my throat and stood up to get another one. Lando excused himself and followed me to the bar.
"Do you really need more alcohol?" he asked as i was about to order.
"If im going to sit with her, yes. Lots." he smiled at me.
Lando took my bag from my hand. "Lets go to my place." i looked into his eyes that were already tracing my face. They darted from my eyes, down to my lips and up at my hair. "Come on, we can watch a movie or something." his hand came up to rub my arm. "Please, magui wont be there."
I began to smile. "Fine, but i want to pick the movie."
"Of course you can." he squeezed my bicep before dragging me over to our booth, still holding my bag. Now all of our friends had left to dance or drink and magui was the only one left. "We are heading home, so ill call you tomorrow." lando said even though he didn't plan on calling her.
"Oh." she sounded extremely sad and i had to hide a smile. "Can i come with you guys?"
"No." i said before lando shot me a look and tried to save it.
"No sorry, were both super tired and im just taking her home before we go separate ways and sleep." another lie. We were not sleeping tonight. Nor were we parting ways. After an awkward conversation, we got away and left the club. I got in the passenger seat of his mclaren and he threw my bag in the backseat before starting the car.
"So" i said dragging out the word.
"So" he repeated back to me. We had about fifteen minutes left in our drive to his large house. One of his hands was on the steering wheel of his dark blue sports car. I had always loved this car and felt lucky every time i was in it, which was a lot. His other hand rested on the lower part of my thigh, nowhere close to where i wanted it.
