Deep [Book One]

Eleven - You continued

"got this feeling. You and I, need a moment."

I could feel Erik's eyes on me as my eyes remained on Jason. He hasn't moved an inch and his face gives away nothing. I feel Erik tug on my arm and my eyes finally look at him. He pulls me to the side and i allow him to pull me away from whatever was happening right now.

"You know each other?" He asks me, his voice hushed as he speaks close to my ear.

"That's Jason...my ex." Is all i say and i feel Erik's arms wrap around me. He kisses my cheek and i immediately know what he is doing. Not only is he claiming me infront of my ex, he leans down more and asks me if i want to stay or go home. I never felt the need to mention Jason's name when i told Erik about my past, so i knew he definitely didn't know anything. We've also just got together and i didn't expect him to tell me the names of all the people he knew and even if he did know a Jason, i was never going to know that it would actually be my ex.

"Let's stay. We can talk about it once we get home." I say as we head back over to the section where everyone is completely oblivious to what's happening. Erik sits down and pulls me into his lap. He introduces me to two of his friends that are sitting across from us and i notice Maya giving me a look. I give her a small smile confirming what she was thinking. I watch as she stands to her feet and with Maya, i just never know what she's going to do.  She motions me over and i get up from Erik.

"Let's go to the bathroom..." she speaks so that only i could hear. Maya knew exactly who Jason was because she was the only one who i ever gave details about our relationship to. As we walk towards the bathrooms we see a long line and decide to find a spot near there to just talk.

"So that's Jason your ex? How the hell does Erik know him?" She asked, looking at me with a worried expression on her face.

"Yes...i guess they met in the military. That's what's making sense to me."  i say, thinking that could be the only explanation that made sense to me. I remembered hearing about Jason enlisting when i was back home for the holidays.

"Oh. Well do you want us to stay or leave?" She asked.

"I already told Erik we can stay. I don't want it to be awkward so lets just chill." I said, trying to keep as calm as i possibly could. Seeing Jason in the flesh brought up so many horrible memories. It was sad that i couldn't think of a single good thing about our relationship. I couldn't believe that this was actually happening but i told myself that i really didn't need to bring those feelings back. I worked very hard to get over the depression that relationship brought on and i definitely wasn't going to slip back into that.

I threw back the drink i had and told Maya we should go back to the bar and get some more. My nerves were super bad but i knew getting drunk wasn't going to help the situation. However, right now i just wanted to take the edge off. We got shots of patron and i took 3 and Maya had 5. I wasn't that nervous so i couldn't bring myself to have the last one of my four so she had it. We danced a little and went back to VIP. They were having conversation and drinking. I sat down in Erik's lap, giving him a kiss. He leaned back making our make out session look way more steamy. I didn't mind because i was completely turned on at this point. Tequila had bad effects on me...

"You getting tipsy? Want to have some of my water?"  He offered me a bottle of water but i didn't want it. "No...no water. I want a drink though."
