"Be the girl who decided to go for it."

Entering the club, we found Elena and a few more people. Seeing us, Elena rushed towards us. The guy linked with her was tagging behind her and from his expression he wasn't pleased to be paired with her. She came with so much force to hug us that it made me stumble.
She was drunk already. I could smell the alchohol on her.

"What took you guys so long?" a guy asked us or mainly to Derek.

"You know girls and the amount of time they take to get ready"

"15 minutes." I protested again.

"Dude, you look so hot" the girl who I assumed to be Charlotte complimented me.

"Thankyou. I love your hair" I said honestly.

She had bright blue eyes and light brown hair styled in soft curls. She was wearing a sky blue off shoulder dress which made her eyes seem more blue than ever. She was so pretty.

"And I love youuuu" Elena piped in.

Definitely drunk.

"How much did she drink this time?" Derek asked that guy.

"Not even 60ml vodka" "By the way Ashley, since your drunk friend can't introduce us I guess I'll do it myself. I'm Jacob" he smiled at me.

"Nice to meet you Jacob"

"Don't be so formal" he laughed.

"She got high by drinking just 60ml?" Derek gasped.

"Its more than the last time bro" Jacob replied.

"Point" Derek agreed.

"I'm getting juice for myself. You want something cupcake?" Derek asked me.

"I'll have vodka."

Nodding, he went towards the bar. He barely took two steps and I felt a tug at my hand and I swear I would've fallen down but luckily Jacob caught me.
The handcuffs! I actually forgot about them.
Like why???
I thanked Jacob and gave Derek a glare who was busy laughing at me.

"Liking it so far?" Derek asked me while we were waiting for our drinks.

"Yes. It wasn't difficult talking to your friends."

"When was the last time you went somewhere with your friends?"

"Arround 3 years back"

"What the fuck! Next time, don't hesitate to come with us. You'll have fun"

"Thankyou Derek." I smiled.

We took our drinks and walked towards the dance floor where the rest of them were. Arround 10 more people had joined them. Rohit was one of them. He waved at me and gave Derek a side hug. So they were friends!

"You didn't seem like the Vodka type" Jacob said.

"More of a Gin person but I don't wanna get high tonight"

He just nodded and started dancing with the rest.

"Don't trust anyone to handle you when you're high?" Derek asked.

He was too observant.

"Am I an open book?" I asked scrunching up my nose.

He didn't answer but continued sipping on his juice.
Almost all the guys were drinking beer or something or the other. I wondered why Derek wasn't drinking.

I gulped the drink at once. Derek cocked his eyebrow at that but luckily didn't say anything else.

I started feeling comfortable arround them and we danced for what seemed like hours. Being a saturday night, the club was completely packed.
EDM was one of my favourite genre to listen and dance on. Derek didn't really dance much. The handcuffs did make it difficult for us to dance but somehow we managed it.

Some guy called Ashton ordered tequila shots for all of us. Now I know I said I wouldn't drink but a little tequila does no harm. It was too tempting! Plus, I knew my capacity very well and this wouldn't even make me tipsy.

All of us except for Elena as Derek strictly denied to offer her any more drink; gulped down the shots together. The liquid burned my throat but made me feel alive.

After a couple of songs, they started playing slow songs.

Derek pulled me closer to him and waited for my permission. I smiled so he took it in a positive way and we started dancing together. Our gaze remained locked. He placed his hand on my back and mine was on his shoulder. Together we danced to the music, our feet in perfect sync to the beating of my heart. I couldn't help but smile. As the song progressed, I felt relaxed and happy. His eyes were deep and irresistible. One thing was for sure, I was lucky to be linked with him.



What do you think of this one? I can actually picture both of them dancing😍
