Given A Chance

"ID?" Asked the large scary bouncer as I reached the front of the line. I showed him my fake ID to which he nodded after looking at me closely and then let me in.

I took a deep breath in aw as I looked around. This place was amazing! There was a bar to a side, a dance floor in the middle, a stage towards the back, and a vip stop at the second floor. In the dance floor there were bodies mingling together, bottle and glasses scattered everywhere, the only light being the strobe lights.

I was a loner in here, I came by myself unlike everyone else in here. Everyone one had a friend, a date, or someone to talk to. I didn't. I figured it be best to start if at the bar, you know, loosen up a bit.

"A vodka tonic please." The bartender nodded.

After two drinks I felt just about right, I stood up and pulled down my dress, fixed my hair, I was about to go wild! I walked as sexily as I could to the dance floor. My plan at the moment was to just dance my way into the crowd. Just wait to see who I could lure in with my messy steps, my unruly hair, and my sickly pale skin. I laughed to myself as I imagined a price in shining armor showing up before me. As if! There were many gorgeous beautiful girls in here, and I didn't consider myself one of them. Sure my raven black untamable hair didn't help much, but my ocean blue eyes kind of made up for it. Yet it still didn't compare to these girls!

I was almost completely tired from dancing! And I had only gotten smiles and winks from obnoxious looking guys, which I ignored and kept dancing on my own.

I was giving up and my strength was failing and I was in pain despite all the pain killers I took earlier.

I sighed and went over to some seats that lined the walls. I let myself flop down and the soft seat let out below me as the air escaped the not so fluffy cushion. I placed my elbow on my knees and my face in my hands. It was hot in here, there was no doubt about that. "I should tie my hair." I muttered to myself as I made my way towards the bathroom.

As I rounded the corner I bumped into a tall hard surface. "Shit." I whispered screamed as I fell to the floor.

"Oi watch where yo- oh I'm so sorry! Here let me help you up." I was dizzy from the sudden fall, and a slight knock to my head as I hit the floor. I had not fully recovered and yet I felt a hand slide around my waist and another griped my arm as the mysterious man helped me to my feet.

"Th-thanks." I said as I tried to blink away the dizziness.

"Err- yea, are you okey? You should take a seat, maybe I can get you some water?"

I laughed. "Water? At a nightclub?! Ha! Yea right." It was a weak laugh and yet I was trying not to fall again.

"Yea water, you know what that is?" It was his turn to laugh as he made fun of me. "I think someone hit their head real hard." He left laughing.

I sat there holding my now aching head in my hands. The loud thumping music and bright fast moving lights did no good for me. I rubbed my temple and tried to ignore the world as the pain subsided. It was ever so slowly fading, but it was something.

"Here." I looked up surprised finally seeing the face of the mysterious man. He was cute, not hot, but cute. After realizing I was staring a second to long I reached up and took the glass from his hands.

"Thanks." I gulped the water down.

"Did you hit your head hard?" Concern marked his face. Was probably wondering whether he would have to pay hospital bills!

"Lil bit, yea. I'm kinda dizzy. But other then that I'm okey." I smiled politely.

"You should probably go home. You don't seem to well."

"Yea, I guess I should." I stood up and stumbled across the club. I reached for the keys as I got to the car.

"Give me those." He snatched the keys out of my hand before directing me to the passenger side.

"Your worse then I thought." He glared at me. "We're do you live?" I told him my address as he turned the car on and drove away.

"What's your name?" He asked trying to start a conversation.

"Robyn Gallegos." I coughed out.

"Thomas Bauer." He threw a quick glance my way but quickly looked away once our eyes met. I kept staring. Taking in the features of the mysterious stranger driving my car, taking me home. His hair a dirty blonde, his eyes brown. He had a skinny frame, cute smile, and determined look. Small smile as he looked over at me staring. Wait what?! I jumped in my seat and quickly turned to look out the window. Embarrassing!

"If you take a picture it'll last longer." A smug smirk on his face.

"Right, because I want to remember the stranger who almost gave me a concussion."

"Well, at least I was nice enough to help you out. I could have left you there on the floor." His grip tightening on the wheel, his knuckles turning white. I had no answer for that. . . so I just stared out the window.

~~~

"Whoa! You live here?" He started in aw. I wouldn't tell him the truth, for all I know he could be planning how to rob the place already.

"Uh, yea why?" I laughed.

"It's huge! Do you live here with your parents?"

"Well, no not really. I live by myself."

"Really?" His eyes got wide with disbelief. "When did you move in?"

"Why do you want to know?" Suddenly aware that he was bombarding me with questions. Questions that were really none of his business.

"Just curious, how long have you lived by yourself?

"About a week."

"So not long. I moved a few weeks ago, for work and that kind of stuff. I spent most of the first weeks locked up doing paperwork, and when I decide to actually go out and see the place I almost kill someone. Wow."

"Well, I guess we both have terrible luck! Err do you want to come in for a drink?"

"Depends, what do you have?"

"Well I have water, juice, and coffee."

"Well I guess I could go for a coffee."

Ohh letting a random stranger into your house! That sure can't end well, or can it? I have no idea where this is leading, haha! I am not on of those authors that sketch out every single detail.
Nope. I take things nice and easy. I read my story sometimes to remember some stuff that I forget, but other then that, I use nothing else.

I seriously hope you've enjoyed this far! And if you have stick around! Add this story to your library to keep you posted on updates!
