Behind The Cover

Chapter 2

As I predicted it did turn out to be an interesting day. For some reason Josie and I thought it would be a good idea to go clubbing. We spent the majority of our afternoon getting ready. Josie was wearing a black two piece bodycon dress, with black pumps. Her  dark brown hair was in a fishtail braid that fell over her right shoulder. Her makeup was simple, but elegant. She had dark red lipstick and a little bit of black eye-liner that made her grayish-blue eyes pop. I however hated dresses, I wore a gray Jack Daniels crop top, and high waisted black skinny jeans with black combat boots. My blonde hair was in loose curls, and I wore dark eye-liner that brought out my gray eyes. We took a taxi to the new club in town, Empire. We arrived at nine pm, the entrance was flooding with people. We showed the bouncers our ID's and made our way inside. The inside of the club looked like something out of a movie. There was a huge fully stocked bar off to the left side of the room. The room was filled with flashes of color and strobe lights. The dance floor was packed. Josie and I made our way to the bar, and took a seat.  The bartender walked up to us and flashed us a smile, he had bright blue hair and a lip piercing.

"What can I get you fine ladies?" he asked with a smile.

"Two shots of fireball whiskey," Josie said.

"Coming right up," the bartender whirled around grabbing the bottle of whiskey and two shot glasses, he filled them up and sat them in front of us.

"Enjoy."

I grabbed the shot glass tipping the contents into my mouth. The whiskey burned down my throat leaving a warm sensation. I looked to my left to see Josie had done the same.

"Hello there," an older man greeted from my right. He was swaying and stunk of beer. He grinned, almost creepily. I stood to get up and away from him, but was stopped when he grabbed my arm roughly.

"Sit back down," he snarled, bringing his face uncomfortably close to my own.

"Erm no thank you," I tried to yank my arm away but his grip was too tight. Where the fuck was Josie. He growled his hot breath fanning my face, it took all my willpower not to gag from the pungent scent.

"Hey douchebag!" I heard a voice behind the man. He turned his head.

"Yeah you! Fucktard. Mind letting go of the lady you fucking bastard?" A girl's voice rang out. The man was enraged, he dropped my arm and lunged out towards her. She only smirked. He charged towards her, she just stepped to the right. The man was so drunk he just stumbled right past her barreling into another man, both of them crashing to the ground. I looked at my savior who was just smirking. She was gorgeous, she had raven black hair that was in loose curls. She had grayish blue eyes silent like a storm.

"Normally people thank someone who just saved them from getting raped and being infected with whatever that ape is carrying," she smirked. Oh shit I forgot I was starring at her. My cheeks blushed a deep red.

"Uh, T-t-thank you," I stuttered out.

"Anytime blondie, but seriously be careful creeps like that guy are everywhere," she laughed then walked off leaving me to stand there looking stupid in the middle of a bar. Shit! I lost Josie. I looked around the bar frantically. That girl was like a child if you left her unattended for more than thirty seconds she would disappear. I scanned the room in a panic, but relaxed when I spotted her in the corner making out with a random guy. I stomped my way over to her before prying her off the poor guy.

"Seriously Jo?" I asked with a chuckle. She just shrugged a slight smile playing on her lips.

"Such a cockblock," the guy grumpily mumbled under his breath.

"C'mon let go Jo," I said.

"But we just got here," she pouted and crossed her arms.

"I'll explain in the taxi, now come on," I told her.

"Fine..." She agreed.

We made our way out of the club, and to the curb where I hailed a passing taxi. We hopped in and gave the cab driver Josie's address. I explained the whole story to Josie. I told her all about the creepy man, and the raven haired girl. Soon enough we reached her house, and I noticed the dark shadow of a person on her porch.

" Josie!" I whisper yelled warning her about the figure she was making her way to.

"Josie!" I whispered again hoping she would hear me and turn around. As we got closer to the front porch I knew exactly who it was. Matt...
