Cotton Panties

Chapter 3 - Dirty Underwear

A couple of days after my wedding day I was all set to do something exciting. Maybe it was the adrenaline rush you get after you are past the crying stage in your breakup.

But I made a call which was a really stupid move.

"Hey, It's me June."

*~*

45 minutes later I was standing in a little black one-shouldered dress, wearing high heels that made me look like a tower, and holding my fifth bottle of beer. Mia, my best friend, was always the best party person you could ever find. She was dressed in a mint green mini dress and heels dancing with some really cute guy on the dance floor. I was dancing with her too a few minutes ago but I retired myself after the guy approached her. Right now I was sipping my lukewarm beer standing in the far corner of the club.

Although I was the one who initiated the plan to come here, I was the last person who was having fun. I was never really a party person though I enjoyed coming to a club occasionally. Today although I needed the loud music and this ridiculously drunk crowd.

My plan of coming here and not thinking about anything was quickly turning out to be useless as I was already thinking about him and trying not to get depressed.

My mind started its train of thoughts as I remembered how Mike and I used to go clubbing and how once he broke a guy's nose as he tried to touch my ass when Mike left me alone to go to the washroom. Then I calmed him down and we finally danced for a couple more songs. He confessed to me in bed that he was jealous and told me that I was his while making sweet gentle love to me. 

He truly was my hero that day.

I sighed and placed my now empty beer bottle on a table. I was just going to call the bartender to give me another beer when I saw him. His back was turned to me and all I could make out from this distance was only his head. But I'll know that head from anywhere. His dirty blond hair was dishevelled as he was shaking his head at a girl who was approaching him. He turned back and that's when I saw his face.

Mike.

He was here and he was smiling. He turned back to the girl, gave her a small one-sided hug and quickly left the club. Without thinking I started making my way to the exit of the club, my steps hurried. I was trying my best to walk faster but the people were too drunk to understand my request to make way. Finally, I broke through the crowd and stepped out of the club, spotting him closing his car door. I yelled his name but he was already speeding down the street. I groaned and pulled my hair taking out my cell phone from my clutch. I dialled his number but as always it went straight to voicemail.

Suddenly I heard a horn from my right side. The lights blinded me. I felt someone tackle me down the road and my head hit the hard concrete. My vision was momentarily blurred and I couldn't hear anything because of a ringing sound that was going on in my ears. A heavy weight was pinning me down on the ground. I groaned and the weight was off me as I was suddenly in a sitting position.

I finally opened my eyes to be met with a beautiful pair of green eyes. They were so capturing that I couldn't take my eyes off them. And suddenly the eyes blinked, which made me snap out of my daze. The next thing that captured my eyes was the guy's lips. They were moving and I was trying to catch the words but I couldn't. Finally, the ringing in my ears went off and I heard his voice.

"... you okay?"

Wow. What a voice. This guy was definitely created when god had spare time. With his mesmerizing eyes and his nicely shaped nose and sculptured lips I wouldn't mind having him all to myself.

"You are beautiful."

Wait a minute. What?! Did I just say that? How many beers did I have?

The guy blinked for a few minutes and then his lips curled into a sexy smirk.
