Attraction

Chapter 2

As I made my way to the crowd of people at the bar, The Tavern, I could already taste my Jack and Coke. The Tavern isn't usually my scene because it's a bit to swanky and mostly people with money come here. Usually, I prefer drinking alcohol in more intimate setting. I knew my parents would be calling all of my friends, which is sad, but the truth. I got to the bar and immediately ordered. Gave my card so I can open up a tab since I'm going to be here a while. I was going to drown myself in alcohol until I forget.

It felt like I've been here for hours when in reality I was there for two hours. Feeling the effects of alcohol in my system I decided to head back home. Gathering my thoughts, I quickly stood up for the doors but suddenly was stopped after bumping into a tall man. "Sorry.", I said to man that was just staring at me. "Shit, what the fuck?", I whispered to myself. I was too busy grabbing my stuff it startled me when I stood up and he was still there watching me intensely. This man was so gorgeous that no amount of words can describe him. He wore a suit, which looked amazing on him, and his chiseled face was so perfect. His eyes were what caught my attention the most because they were borderline black and just staring at me. My body tremble from the intensity of his stare I just ran off.

"Wait!", I heard him say. I knew he was running after me but once I got to the parking lot I couldn't find my keys.

"Fuck!", I said to myself. I was thinking where I had left me when I realized the man from the bar probably has them and that's why he called after me. "I'm such an idiot.", I thought to myself. Thinking he was coming after me because he thought I was attractive, what a fucking joke. Hoping he was coming soon with the keys, I waited.

I sat on the pavement next to my car when I heard steps coming. "These must be yours.", I heard a man's voice along with the jingle of my keys. When I stood up, I tried to say thank you and grab them but he pulled them away. He is staring at me again so intensely I had to look away. My body is reacting to his stare as if he was touching my body in all the corrects places.

"Can I please have my keys? I apologized before to bumping into you.", I asked in a quiet voice since he looked mad but never kept eye contact.

"What is your name?", he asked me. "Do you make a habit bumping into strangers and just running away?". He steps in closer, almost nose to nose, "Because I was hoping I was getting special treatment by watching your ass as you left." He chuckled.

I am struggling to move back. With my eyes wide open, I said, "Excuse me? Just give me the keys. You know MY keys from MY car.", I said started borderline yelling because I was getting annoyed. I don't know what caused me to have such an attitude since he did bring me my keys but he was being a dick at the same time. I quickly grabbed the keys and got in my car and left. That was the most intense thing to ever happen to me with a guy.

I got to my house and went straight to bed. My parents never noticed when I came home so it wasn't an issue to go to bed.
