Silent Attention [COMPLETED]

29. Thief

I kinda liked Mike.  He was sweet, and sad.  Like me.  I pulled out my phone to make sure I had saved his number and then text him.  "Hey it's Gemma, text me any time you wanna talk."  He didn't reply back, but I didn't worry.  He probably wouldn't see it until the morning.  I looked to see what Aaron had texted me.  "Going to be a little later than I thought."  then "I'm sorry."

I made my way back to the bar and ordered another surprise drink.  I took a good swallow and text Aaron back.  "No worries, I'll be at the bar."

"You okay?"

"Peachy"

"How peachy are you."  I giggled a little, he knew my code now.

"One more drink and I'll be peached."

"I am really sorry Gemma, I'll be there in fifteen."

That fifteen passed with two drinks and two shots.  I was sloppy drunk and was having a hard time sitting still.  Joe had cut me off on the last one and sent water my way.  This was the first time I had ever been cut off.  I can normally handle my drinks well.

"You okay?  Did someone slip you something? You drink anything from someone else?"

I looked up to see Joe swaying about.  "No but I think you might be drunk Joe.  You won't stop moving."  I felt his hands on my shoulders, steadying himself.  "Joe, I think you might need to sit down if you have to lean over the bar onto a drunk person to steady yourself."

"You take something before you get here?"  His words moved in and out, getting louder and quieter in my ears.

"I took a xany."  I heard him curse, but he was still holding on to me.

"Where's Shelly at?"

"With hunky."

"You here with anyone else?"

"I'm meeting up with a friend."  I pulled out my phone and tried to one eye it, to read the screen, but couldn't see shit.  "Text Aaron.  Code is 1013."  He took the phone from me and I slumped onto the bar.  I must have passed out, because the next thing I knew, I was being picked up.  I looked up and saw a lip ring, full lips and a perfect nose.  I wiggled into him and felt a nipple ring against my side through the fabric of his shirt.  "Aaron, Joe needs to go home.  He's drunk and wouldn't stop leaning on me."  I could feel vibrations of his chuckle through his chest, but didn't hear him.  I wrapped my arm around his neck and pulled myself up a little to his ear.  "I think he took something." 

I tried to open my eyes hard and was rewarded by a glimpse of street lights.  I felt the cool air lick at my skin and buried myself into his neck.  "You smell so good.  I bet you taste good too."  I opened my mouth and bit down on him.  I didn't think I bit that hard, but I could feel him almost drop me.  It was enough for me to inhale deeply, ready to scream and let go of his neck.

"Please do not bite me again Gemma."

I rolled back onto his arm that was supporting my back and stretched out my arms.  They almost touched the ground.  I could tell he was struggling to carry me, He kept having to readjust me. 

"I need you to stand up for a moment okay?"  I didn't reply and tried to slide out of his arms.  He dropped my legs quick and held my waist tight to him with one hand.  I looked up at him again, this time my eyelids cooperating with me.  God damn that lip ring was hot.  I really wanted to play with it, with my tongue.  "I need a cigarette.  Pweese Aaron."  I stuck out my lips and pouted at him.  He walked me a few steps to the trunk of a car and set me against it.

He pulled out two cigarettes and lit both, then handed one to me.  I went to take a drag and missed my mouth completely.  I burst laughing and bent over, then proceeded to fall over before I took Aaron to the ground with me.  "Aaron, why did you make me fall over like that?"  My cigerrette was gone and I looked over to him, who was now laying on the ground next to me with his.  "You jerk, you stole my square."

"Let me help you okay?"  Before I could even agree, he brought my square to my mouth and I inhaled.  Letting out rings of smoke, "I think I might be drunk after one more drink."

"I'm taking you home Gemma."

I turned to face him, only seeing his mouth pull on the cig.  "I'm never going to remember this.  Why can't I remember your face?  I bet you're hot aren't you?"

"You can't see me now?"  I heard his head scrap the concrete and tried to focus, but it was blurry.  I couldn't focus my eyes.

"No." I sighed out.  He helped me take another drag before he flicked the butt.  "But that lip ring is hot."  I rolled over on my side and jerked my hand to his shirt, running it up to his nipples.  "These are hot too." I whispered at him.  He pulled my hand away and I ran my fingertips across his abs, biting my lip.  "Time to go Gemma."  He pulled me up and walked me to the car door.  He helped me in and buckled me up.  My head drifted off to one side, but then I jerked it straight when I heard the engine roar.  "Woah baby, mama likes."  I looked over to the steering wheel and saw four rings connected together.  "Let me drive next time.  You need to share our baby." 

"I promise, next time, you can drive."  I let my hand fall to his thigh.  "You better Aaron."

I'm kinda excited yet disappointed.  I finished writing this story today and got the plot like I wanted, but it just doesn't feel right.  Don't get me wrong, it's still a good ending....

ps, we are about half way through I think.
