(Arya's POV )
"Excuse me" said the voice and to my surprise it was another guy. not the sexy looking one I seen a few seconds ago. I looked up at the blond hair guy and smiled "Yes?" I said
"I was wondering would you like to dance?" he asked but before I can turn him down Emily jumped in and said
"She would love to" I glared at her and said
"Emily, we are about to order"
"Arya it's ok. Just tell me what you want and, I'll order it for you. By the time you finish dancing to two songs our food will be here. Now shoo shoo" she said waving her hands toward the dance floor.
"Perfect, now that everything is settled. Shall we?" said blondie. I forced a smile and nodded my head. He took hold of my hand and walked towards the dance floor. I passed the sex gods table but not before giving him a smile, but he was too busy glaring at blondie to notice.
"My name is Taylor" he said once we started dancing.
"Hi! My name is Arya "
"So, what's a sexy thing like you doing here all by yourself?" asked Taylor
"Oh nothing. Just having some girl time with my BFF" I said not feeling comfortable telling him the real reason why I'm here.
"You're a very good dancer."
"Thank you! my mother taught me" I said
"Is she a dance teacher or something ?"
"Yes, she was"
"
Was? What did she get fired or something?" he asked laughing as if what he said was funny.
I scoffed at him "NO, she wasn't FIRED" I emphasized fired so he would get the point.
"I'm sorry, did I offend you? I didn't mean to. So what really happened?"
"My mother found out she had arthritis after going to the doctors to see why her knee kept hurting her. So she finished out the year and retired"
I looked up at him and seen he wasn't paying attention. He was looking at a half naked drunk woman. I pulled my hands away from his and said "Dick wad" and walked away, but he just walked towards the half naked lady.
I was about to go sit back down, but changed my mind and walked towards the sex gods table and stopped in front of him and two other handsome men.
"Would you like to dance?" I asked him feeling bold all of a sudden.
"I'd love too!" he said. I grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the floor.
He grabbed me by the waist and I put my arms around his neck.
"My name is Jason Thompson" he said in a deep baritone voice.
"I'm Arya Anderson"
(Jason's POV )
God she was beautiful! She was a tall woman that reached my nose with heels. She has black silky hair that came above her waist and big grey eyes with long thick black lashes and legs that went on forever. I could just picture them wrapped around my waist. When she smiled, these big deep dimples showed on both her cheeks.
"How come I never seen you on this ship before?" I asked her.
"I've been here the whole time but I stayed in my room the whole trip until today"
"Do you mind me asking why?" I asked. She shook her head and said
"Sure go ahead"
"Go ahead what?" I asked confused
"You said may I ask why? I'm waiting for you to ask me why" she said with a teasing smile.
I burst out laughing catching the attention of many people.
"Thank you" I said
"For what? I haven't done anything" said Arya confused
"On the contrary, you got me to laugh and I haven't done that since I came on this cruise"
"Really, that's a shame because you have a nice laugh and a beautiful smile" she said smiling
"Thank you, would you like to have dinner with me?" I asked her
"I would love to but I came here with my best friend and I promised her we'd dine together" she said sounding sorry.
"It's fine. How about drinks and a walk around the ship later tonight?" I asked sounding hopeful.
"I would love that "
Just then the song ended. She put her hands through my arms and I walked her back to her table. I kissed her hand and pulled out her chair. I bent my head towards her ear and said
"I'll wait by the lower decks with the drinks" she turned her face and her lips brushed mine accidentally. I felt a jolt go through me, she gasped and pulled away with a shocked look on her face. I smiled and walked back to my table with a Cheshire cat grin on my face. My friends looked at me and smiled.
"I see you found an interesting girl" said Mikey
"She's very beautiful" said mark.
"Yes, yes, she is guys and tonight I get to see her again" I said excitedly
Both my friends gave each other a look but I ignored it and wished for tonight to come faster.
