Chapter Three
As we arrived at the club we could already hear the music thumbing loudly and she threw me a smile as we walked up to the bouncer.
“Hello,” he said as we approached.
“Hi we’re on the guest list tonight, Tweedy and Walsh,” she said calmly.
“Yes, go on in,” he replied after checking his list, we both gave him a slight smile and walked past.
I felt someone tug at my hand as she clasped it tightly, interlacing our fingers. I don’t think I could have felt happier at that moment; I felt on a high and never wanted to come down. The look she was giving me as we entered the club was stunning. She was smiling so wide her dimples showed ,she bounced up and down a little like an excited child and her eyes were alight and dancing with joy. Yes love was definitely upon me.
“Where shall we sit?” she says suddenly.
I hadn’t even noticed where we were I had been far too busy looking at her to concentrate on anything else.
“Um how about over there,” I say quickly pointing to a booth in a darkened corner.
“Nice choice,” she grins and drags me over. “I like it dark,” she says as we sit down on the comfy sofa.
“Yeah it’s okay,” I shrug not bothered where I sit as long as I’m with her. Yes by this point I really was starting to think I was getting too love up that it was unhealthy but none the less I carried on staring lovingly at her.
“What’s wrong? Do I have something on my face?” she says out of the blue.
“What?” I say jumpily as I get brought out of my day dream.
“What’s up with you tonight? You keep zoning out?” she giggles and scoots closer to me.
“Nothing,” I say not yet ready to tell her that I love her and never want to be without her again.
“Okay well I’ll get us some drinks, what do you want?” she smiles placing her hand softly on my thigh.
“Ugh, Gin and Tonic thanks,” I reply saying the first thing that comes to mind.
“Okay,” she says and pushes herself from the sofa and leaves.
I need to get a grip I think! It’s unhealthy to be so consumed by one person who doesn’t even know how you feel!
It only takes 5 minutes and she’s back again carrying more than one drink.
“What’s all this?” I say as I see she’s also carrying a pitcher full of what looks like orange juice.
“Well I figured I’d get us something for later seeing as it’ll get busy soon, saves us queuing up again,” she says and places my drink in front of me.
“More like get me drunk,” I giggle over the music which has become suddenly louder. “What is it anyway?” I say pointing to the pitcher.
“Oh, Sex on the Beach,” she grins.
“You what?” I say not hearing her properly.
“It’s something that we should do one day, I just haven’t got round to it yet,” she replies with a cheeky glint in her eyes.
“Huh? Never mind I’m sure it’ll be nice,” I shrug still not hearing her all that well.
As I take a sip of my drink I can feel her eyes on me. It happens sometimes I just know without looking at her that she’s staring. And as soon as I...yep she’s done it again. As soon as I look at her she busies herself with something and looks away. I don’t know why, she’s never been the shy type, she always tells me rude stuff all the time and isn’t all that bashful about being naked either, which of course I don’t mind but I do wish I knew what she was thinking when she thinks I’m not watching her.
