I had been flirting with the cute brunette guy sitting next to me at the bar when I notice sarah and cute blonde guy walk past me, headed down the steps into the yacht. That must be Alex, I think as I rest my chin in my hand leaning further against the bar. I slowly stir the umbrella in my mixed drink watching the liquid swirl for a few moments as the guy I had been talking to mentions he will catch up with me after while. I nod as I look back up and notice Harley making her way back towards me.
"What took you so long?" I ask her.
"Mom kept rambling on and on and I had to pee." Harley says laughing softly.
"Did you see the guy Sarah had on her arm?" I ask smiling
"No, I must of missed them." Harley says as she sits down on the barstool next to me ordering another crown and coke. She tucks her hair behind her ear and brings the glass to her lips taking several sips before she turns to me slightly. "So what's your boy toy think of you being here without him?" Harley asks raising her brow.
"Not sure I really care." I say in a flat tone. "We aren't serious, and I'm pretty sure im not the only chick in his little black book that he has been seeing lately" I say shrugging. "I plan to just do me and whatever happens, happens."
A few moments pass as we sit in silence watching people as they walk back and forth past us.
"Let's go see if we can find sarah, I'm sure she wants to introduce us to Alex." I say as I stand taking my drink in hand
"Sounds good,lets go!" Harley exclaims with a soft smile. She grabs her drink and we head down the steps inside the yacht lounge area. We spot Sarah and Alex across the other end of the yacht by the dance floor. They both are facing each other,drinks in one hand, and Alex has his other hand resting on her hip as Sarah has one hand on his shoulder, they sway to the music. Both of them look happy to be in each other's company. We approach them tapping Sarah on the shoulder.
"So, this must be alex?" I ask as my lips curl into a smile. Alex looks up as their hands drop from each other and Sarah turns standing beside alex."Sure is!" Sarah exclaims her eyes bright with happiness. "Alex, this is miley, and this is Harley." She says pointing to each of us one at a time.
"Nice to finally meet you both." Alex says as he glances from Miley to Harley. "Sarah has told me alot about you both, glad I was able to come tonight, I have missed her so much!" Alex says as he wraps an arm around Sarah's waist pulling her closer as he turns his gaze back to her.
The guy I had been flirting with at the bar walks up behind me placing his hands on my shoulders, I jump as I was about to strike up a convo with Alex and Sarah . "Hey, your back!" I say as he steps to the side of me, taking my hand in his and leaning over to whisper in my ear. "I guess I should of told you my name earlier, forgive me, I'm brad, how about we go somewhere a little more quiet to talk?" He asks and I nod glancing over at Harley, as Sarah is preoccupied with alex.
"If you need me I will be in my room." I say as i lean closer to harley. As I pull away from her I notice a guy standing about several feet behind her and he's heading her direction. Tall dark and handsome I think with a soft laugh as I wink at Harley and drag brad off into the direction of my room.
