Beauty inside despair

Girl night out

That night when I reached my apartment after getting off work I saw Harry waiting outside. I looked down the street as I walked over to him and gently kiss his cheek. I walked into the building and up to my apartment, once inside the safety of my apartment he turned to me. "I've a game to host you going to be okay a while? Now longer then a few weeks the longest." he said. I nodded as I wrapped my arms around his neck. He gave me a kiss then pressing me to him, I deepened it by tilting my head to the side. He moved to my jawline and I moaned as I put my head back when he got my neck, placing light kisses there. 

When he pulled away I sighed, because I didn't want him to stop. He draped his scarf around my neck and laid his forehead against mine. "Sorry Love, had to or I would never leave." he said kissing my  forehead then. 

"awe and here I thought, you where going to stay " I say teasingly, he laughed as he stepped into the hall of my building. 

"Stay out of trouble, Kate and Wills might come by and see you depending on their schedules." he said. 

"I'm going out tonight with Lucy she's wanting to do a Karaoke night with her gals." I say sounding sassy. "I'll be safe and won't mention you I promise." he smiled and kissed my hand before he left. I closed my apartment door and leaned against it, hot and bothered thanks to Harry. I went to my room and went through my closet for a night out dress I found it and put it on quickly and putting on my shoes. I waited on Tess considering I had asked Lucy if I could invite my sister and she had said yes the more the merrier. 

Sadly Dillon was out of the equation, it was a girls night out. I picked out a purse and place my important items into it. I grabbed my phone to look at my text messages realizing the messages was still showing my conversation with Harry. I hit the back button and found Lucy. ' Ready to party! Taking a ride with sis meet you there!' I sent it and waited on Tess I had told her ahead of time about what was going on and she was excited over it. 

I left the apartment building and right on time, there was Tess in the driver seat. I got into the passenger side and she drove off. " So this Lucy friend of yours is getting married and she asked you to be her maid of honor!!" she said 'yep she is so excited.' I thought as she kept her eyes on the road. 

"Well yea she has other friends, and I told her to choose one of them, but she picked me." I said smiling 

"I hope to god you don't go rocking your ass off at the wedding" she said jokingly

"When have I gone nuts at a wedding?" I say raising an eyebrow. 

"hmmm remember Josh's wedding? Where you got super drunk, because Darren was being an asshole and you told him that in his face. You made a scene that day." Tess explained laughing. 

"When wasn't Darren being a complete asshole." I say irritated "besides he's old news" 

"oh? Did you find someone?" she said 

"I don't know it's still kind new" I implied as we reached the Karaoke bar. Tess pulled around back and parked. We got out of the car and walked around the front, being let in immediately. "I should have you around more often." I pointed out giggling. 

"Yea you should." Tess says laughing as well, we spotted Lucy quite easily and went to the table and sat down. "Do not, I mean do not let her get drunk!" my sister exclaims to Lucy. 

"Shouldn't I be the judge of that?" I say acting like I was offended, which I wasn't. 

"Sara I wanted to introduce you to Gina, and Heather. They're the other bridesmaids." Lucy said introducing each one in turn. I waved my hello, but I don't think it reached them as they eyed Tess with admiration. "oh yea they're big fans of....Teresa.....Clavelle!!" Lucy than put the pieces together and gasped in shock. 

"Yea most people don't put it together. " I say giggling, than Lucy did too and also swatting Gina and Heather to act normal. They did and soon enough we were having a good time, Tess really did have fun acting like a normal person for once. We did shot races and I got the courage to do a body shot off Lucy. Laughing after it was done, I smiled as I took another shot that was at the table. 

"They're doing a Karaoke contest if you're interested Sara!" Lucy said over the music. 

"Nope not singing!" I say swaying with the music, I wasn't personally drunk enough to do so. Soon Gina came back with five big Margarita drinks and I went over there immediately. "Oh god yes. come to me you delicious thing." I say grabbing a glass and taking a sip. 

'Okay so I was wrong, I am a little bit more drunk then normal.' I thought, but I tossed that thought out the window as I took a big drink out of my glass. "Alright I think I think.....Shit! What was I going to say!" I said giggling like a school girl. Just then I see my phone light up and smile as Handsome hunk showed up on screen. 

I answer "Hello, Lover! Whatchu up to?" I say still giggling. 

"Uh oh I think someone might have had too much to drink." he said chuckling lightly.

"Nope. Just started.......huh...maybe I couldn't tell you how many I've had" I said now trying to think how many shots I had. 

"Sar I think you need to slow down a bit" he said concerned  

"But I'm having way too much fun, besides I'm thinking of entering the Karaoke contest." I said, now Harry was laughing and I slightly frowned. "I can sing, mind you." 

"I know you can Love, but I have to go, slow down a bit on the drinking will you? Love you." he said I told him I loved him too and we hanged up. Tess raised an eyebrow at me as I stood and walked over to the stage and she almost wanted to stop me, but didn't. The contest had started and Tess had put me in, just to tease me, but she guess she didn't have to force it. 

I got up on stage and picked a song to my liking and started singing.

I wasn't paying attention to the whole people in the bar stop what they were doing, just to listen to me. I just sang to my heart content, like no one was watching. My thoughts going to Harry and him being away and missing him terribly. I didn't even take notice of some people holding up their phones and recording my performance, as the song ended I bowed and walked off the stage. I got to the table and that was I stumbled over my footing. 

"That was so amazing! " Lucy announced helping me sit in a chair. 

I wiped at my tears "Glad someone got to hear it." I said. 

"Sarabelle the whole place stopped to listen to you sing!" Tess said excitedly. I shooked my head as I grabbed my purse and phone from the table. 

"I just want to go home." I say getting back up and walking for the doors, the song had sobered me right up and my feelings were out in the open. Tess followed me out and caught up with me when I had reached her car. 

"I'll take you home Sarabelle. It's been a very long night and you're going to pay for it later." she said. I just got into the car when she unlocked the doors.
