Part 6

Part 6

 *later in the evening* 

‘Hey…can I get any of you drinks?’ Aston smiled walking over to the booth we’d been seated in in the club

‘we’ve got some thanks...’ Becca smiled

‘Girls come on lets go dance….’ Sara said winking at me and grabbing the girls hands pulling them onto the dance floor leaving me sat alone, I knew where she was going with this…

 ‘Mind if I have a seat?’ Aston asked, a sparkle in his eyes

‘Sure...’ I smiled

‘you know im so glad you could all come tonight…’ he began

‘Im glad we came…its been really good…your performance was amazing’ I smiled sweetly, once again getting lost in his eyes

‘thanks…’ I smiled ‘so….’ He stuttered thinking of a conversation starter ‘how long have you been working at UCL?’ he smiled

‘I qualified just over a year ago…still pretty new to it all really…’

 ‘well I think what you girls do is amazing…’

 ‘its nice to think some people do..’ I sighed ‘most people think it’s the easy way out for a career…people don’t realise how much work we actually do…’

 ‘I do…’ I smiled gently touching my hand

‘thankyou…’ I smiled brushing my hand against his before picking my drink up ‘So did you always want to be in a boyband then?’

 ‘not always…in fact…I wanted to do football up until marv called me about this band being put together…and then everything changed’ he laughed ‘but for the better…its amazing being able to do what I love…and make a living whilst doing it

 ‘I know how you feel…ever since I was little I knew I wanted to be a nurse…’ I smiled

 We continued to talk like we’d known each other for ages, it was weird having such a general conversation with someone I hardly knew, there was no awkwardness, it was just nice having someone to talk too…I never really had that…

 ‘So what are the shifts like? Do you get Christmas day off…’

 ‘yeah I do this year…’ I smiled ‘im off for two weeks over christmas and new year…’

 ‘we get two weeks off too…’ he replied ‘so…you got family visiting? I cant wait to go home for christmas’

 ‘no…actually….’ I gulped ‘I going to stay with my dad…he lives in South Africa with my step mum and step sister…he’s got an animal hospital out there…’ I smiled as he just nodded awkwardly ‘my real mum died in child birth…’ I nodded

‘Oh god…im so sorry…’ he said sympathetically putting his hand on my thigh but surprisingly I didn’t flinch and brush it off

‘its fine…’ I smiled ‘ive never known any different…my dad married again 7 years ago and moved over there 2 years ago…’

 ‘you seem like a really strong person….’

 ‘nah…’ I laughed ‘ive just had to deal with a lot in life…but I wouldn’t be the person I am today without it…’ I said ‘now come on…no more talk about depressing things…we need more alcohol…’ I giggled

 .......................................

 And boy did we drink more alcohol, we finished the bottle of vodka with the mixers that was already on the table and went up to the bar to do shot after shot after shot; soon hitting the dance floor for hours on end as the alcohol kept coming our way.

 From what I can remember that night we were inseparable, there was nothing more than a flirt i think, but we spent the night like best friends on a night out.

 *2am*

‘Maybe you should slow down a bit…’ said an alcohol intoxicated Sara

‘Don’t be silly…were having fun…’ Aston slurred

 'Yeah...Astons right...' i laughed hysterically

‘Fine…don’t be moaning to me in the morning…’

 ‘Whatever…’ I laughed

What I didn’t realise at this point was that i was a hell of a lot more drunk than i thought i was, it wasn’t the girls I had to worry about embarrassing me, I managed to do that all by myself…
