Happy Birthday!" We shout
Gabi's Face blushes to a deep shade of red. I don't know whether it was because for scaring her or that we just announced her birthday to the whole neighborhood.
"Thanks....Guys..." She says smiling
We both laugh and walk into the living room. I welcome Gabi in the door.
"so, what's the plan?" She asks
"Well, we could either go out somewhere or just stay here and have fun."
"Both!" she says
Emma and I look at each other in confusion
"Go out then come back here to have fun."
"Thanks, but I don't want drunk girls in my house."
"I won't drink, promise." She says
"Alright. Emma, you can wear my black sequined dress if you want. I'll wear my red one."
"Actually, I'm going to wear the blue one." She says
"Ok, Gabi. Go up to your apartment and get all dolled up, we'll be ready."
She leaves. I go get my blue dress for Emma and grab my red one, to find that that asshole ripped it. I sigh and shove it back to the closet. I dig out my plain black dress. I'm not one for sequined stuff. I zip it up and look. I pull on my black, strappy heels and that finishes the outfit. I smile and walk out. Emma is waiting by the car and Gabi is late again. I see Mark come out of his house. I walk over to him and tap his shoulder. I quickly duck to the other side, unfortunately he catches me and lifts me up and spins me around.
"Ok! Ok! Put me down! Mark!" I laugh
He chuckles and puts me down.
"So, Why you all dressed up? Going to Britain-Land To meet the queen?" he jokes
I chuckle and shake my head
"No, Gabi, Emma and I are going out to a nearby club."
He Nods
"Would you like to, you know, tag along?" I almost feel embarrassed for asking
"Sure, Why not? I'll follow you guys down. I need to change into something other than this."
I chuckle at his outfit and nod. I run off to the car and hop in. I text Mark the address. Turns out it's only about 30 minutes away. We talk on the way there just about our lives and stuff. Not a lot. We arrive and go in.
"Nice, How'd you find this place Gabi?"
"Old boyfriend used to come here all the time. Plus, Lauren just got a job here." She says
I see Marks car pull in, I wave him over to where we are. He walks over to us.
"Hey, Glad I could make it." He says
I smile and walk in, dragging him with me. Or, Holding his hand anyway.
We go in and gaze upon the huge nightclub. It's certainly much bigger than we thought. We walk over and grab ourselves a table and sit down. Gabi and Emma go over to dance. Mark and I walk over to the bar.
"You want anything?" he asks
"Just a water or something. Please."
"You don't want like a drink-drink?" he asks
"No, I'm not a huge drinker."
He smiles and orders me a water and a soda for himself. He smiles.
"If you're not gonna have a drink, neither am I." He smiles
"Oh, it's OK. You can get one. I don't mind."
"Nope! I only drink if you do tonight!" he says
I chuckle and set my water down.
"I'm gonna go find Gabi and Emma! I'll be right back!"
I walk over to find them on the dance floor dancing to some new dance song. I wander over and join them.
"Hey! How are things going with you-know-who?" Gabi asks
I roll my eyes.
"Fine Gabi. Thanks"
I feel someone tap my shoulder and I swivel around. Mark is standing behind me with the goofiest look on his face. He holds his hand out to me.
"Let us dance!" he says in his horrible British accent
I take his hand and let him lead me away to a different spot.
"How well can you dance?"
"Oh I can dance, I can dance amazingly babeh! Check out these sweet moves!" he says
He starts dancing in the goofiest way possible. I laugh untill my sides hurt and put a hand on his shoulder.
"M-M-Mark! Stop! you're killing me!"
The song ends and another begins. Mark Takes my hand pulls me off the dance floor.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll see!"
He takes me up to the roof. It's open to anybody but there's nobody else there. I peek over the edge to see busy LA below.
"Wow this is beautiful. I never would've known this was here."
He nods. I look up into his eyes. They were a warm brown and make me feel safe. I look back down on the city. I feel him take his hands in mine. I glance up at him. The quiet music is the perfect background music. I look back up at him. He closes the gap with a kiss. My eyes flutter closed. I let him wrap his hands around my waist, I put my hands arpund his neck. I look into his eyes as we part.
"I-Im sorry. I just-" he says
"Mark."
He looks up at me
"It's fine."
He smiles. I pull him in for a hug.
"Maybe I needed a little love"
I feel him hug me a little tighter. I look back up into his beautiful eyes. The way the light of the stars danced off of them was breathtaking. I lean my head on his shoulder an look at the world. So beautiful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Bye Gabi! I'll see you tomorrow!" I say
I start walking up to my apartment.
"Taylor Wait!"
I look back. Mark is waiting at the bottom of the stairs.
"I'll see you tomorrow?" he asks
"Always" I smile as I walk in.
Tonight may have just been the best night of my life.
