Chapter Thirty-Two - Being Named As A Heartbroken Person.

-----

ALEX'S POV

When I reached Dorrian's, the first thing I did was remove my blazer and loosen my tie. I had asked Dylan to drive me and invited him for a drink, too.

"Dylan, have some beer, at least. I know you can take that much." I said and Dylan laughed. Dylan and I were almost the same age, he was the younger one, though.

"No, Sir. I'm the designated driver. I'm better off with some mocktail. Drinks on you, though." He teased and I laughed nodding at his request.

"Roberto!" I cheered on the known bartender.

"Ah, Mr.Chadwick. Good to see you here, after so long." Roberto greeted and his thick Italian accent dripped down. He had a big smile.

"Sure, Roberto." I smiled at him.

"Where is the beauty?" He was talking about Melanie, we used to come here from time to time. It was the place I had found her, so she thought it to be lucky for her.

"Broke it off," I said without sentiment.

"Ah, I see. Anyways, she did not have the glitter for you. You will get one, nice and pretty." He said and made a drink using his expertise skills.

"Yeah? I found her and even lost her." I grumbled and he heard it. I felt idiotic for trusting so easily. 

Why don't I feel regret trusting her?

Why do I still feel attracted to her?

She hadn't given me any signals now that I think about it. She was always making cute faces, or blushing or retorting back at me or...denying me. But she didn't tell me about her and Martin. Wasn't that her fault?! That was her fault!

"So, the drinks not for the break-up. It is for the lost girl." He said after he finished making the drinks and I nodded. He shook his head.

"I help people forget pain, Mr.Chadwick. I help you, too." He said and pushed over a small glass of shots towards me.

"Trust me, Mr.Chadwick, this will work," I smirked at him and nodded. In the next second, I took the drink and gulped in a second.

I felt my throat burn but it satisfied me and made me feel better. I picked the lemon and sucked on it and felt the rush. I shook my head vigorously.

"Ah, Roberto! Always the perfect one. Repeat it until I can't feel." He nodded and started giving me drinks, one-on-one.

Somewhere in the middle, there was a girl who sat besides me. I gave her a look and turned back to my drink. I was playing with the rim of the glass, thinking about how I got to this.

"Looks like I can join someone." She said and touched my shoulder. I looked at her again and I saw Grace's face. I pulled her down and she was on my lap.

"Yeah. I need you." I answered as I pulled her close holding on to her hair and attacked on her lips feeling the kiss. She was very responsive.
