  Luke's POV

What a tease! She may be a tease but I'm a better player than her. I knew she will bail with us dancing, she was walking stiffly towards the dance floor and I just wanna curse at that "Channing Shot" she had before she asked me to dance. Didn't it help her at all to loosen up?

'Come here babe, show me what you got' I coaxed her. We started swaying together our hips touching each other, her hands are gripping on my biceps and I took it to wrap it around my neck. She's grinding her body against mine as I was doing the same. My hands started to slid lower and caught a few touch at the side of her thighs, I'm holding myself back from touching her in places I know is not appropriate at all considering that we are in a public place and I can see my Uncle Jace also dancing with Kent just a few steps away giving me his disapproving look.

I moved both of us away and settled just near the DJ's booth because I don't want for her to see Uncle Jace. It will definitely ruin the moment, and I don't want it end just yet. She still have her arms around me kneading my hair just above my nape and I couldn't seem to move mine settled just below her waist. We are mildly covered in sweat now, as the music is upbeat but it doesn't seem to bother both of us. My attention is focused only on the the feel of her body against mine. I like how she's fitted rightly in my arms and how her height compliments mine. Everything feels perfect at the moment and I can't help but wonder when did I ever felt such feeling? Not yet, until tonight.

I pressed my lips on her neck, that at least I could do. It wouldn't earn me unfavorable glances from my Uncle and the people around. I heard her gasped at the contact and I laughed quietly with my lips still latched on her neck inhaling her lovely scent. Thank God I did that just before the music ends cause I heard the DJ tell everybody that party's ending after the song he's gonna play.

Too bad I wanted to keep dancing with her. I took my hands off from her waist and moved a step disconnecting our bodies from touching. I wanna keep touching her too and we still have one more song left to dance to but I don't know what's gotten over me I just stood there looking at her.

I saw her open her lovely lips.. lips I want to kiss... to say something but no words came out.

'I hate dancing, but if it's you I'm dancing with, I'll do it all night baby' I whispered to her. She moved forward to take my hand but I stepped backwards.

I can see confusion in her eyes, but I just stood there looking at her. When it seems like she's not making any move again, I just gave her a smirk, turned around and walked out of the dance floor.

I didn't want to leave her there on the dance floor alone. Man, I didn't want to leave her ever especially when things are getting pretty heated.

I wanted to keep her there against me the rest of the night. Dancing and grinding, feeling her soft skin with my hands, smelling her hair...I wonder what shampoo she's using? I smell a familiar tinge of lavander. She smells farkin fantastic. 

And no, I don't smell perfume at all when I had my lips on her neck...What more if she puts on expensive perfumes? Delicious! Argh! I'm gonna go bonkers just by the thoughts of her.

An idea struck me after the song ended. It pained me to let go of her embrace but I have to be sure. I made it clear that I want her, a lot. I made the first move, now its up to her to make the next.

So there, I walked out...but with my fingers crossed. I hope my plan won't back fire since this girl's pretty hard to crack.

I hailed a taxi and went straight to the place I rented for one month from AirBnB. I'm buzzed and can feel my body screaming for rest. The flat is just 10 minutes away from from the bar. I specifically chose it because it's where my Uncle Jace and Kent's condo is. I can reach him immediately whenever I feel like it.

I laid flat on my bed as soon as I reached the bedroom not bothering to remove my shirt and pants even though they reek of smoke and alcohol.

It's funny how even if I'm not in California anymore, I tend to end the night pretty much the same. Old habits die hard they say. Well not really the same... I'm actually alone in my bed tonight... not for long hopefully.

I did one last thing before I let sleep consume me. I dialed my mom's number and heard it ring. I wasn't really expecting for her to pick up but was still surprised when I felt regret upon being transferred to her voicemail instead.

'Hey Mom... It's me. How are you? *long pause* how's Dad? *sigh* I love you................*beep*

'Both' He whispered but he knew the last word didn't get recorded because the machine beeped already. Luke pressed the number one on his phone to leave the message and ended the call.

A/N
