Inexplicable (Drake)

Chapter 30

Sabrina's P.O.V

"Follow me" I think Drake said over the music. His hand was still with mine as we went through a bunch of sweaty bodies. People were dancing all over this part of the room, bumping and grinding.

The DJ was turning the volume louder and yelling into the microphone.

We stopped at a place with a bunch of tables and Drake looked around. Suddenly a girl got up and started waving her arms at us. I nudged Drake to look in that direction and he smiled and walked towards them.

He sat on the couch and I sat close to him in front of these strangers.

"Guys this is my girlfriend Sabrina" he said rubbing my arm up and down.

"Hi oh my god I love your dress!" the girl that waved us over squeaked at me.

"Thank you!" I tried to say enthusiastically. The music didn't seem to affect this side of the room as much.

"Sabrina this is Jason, Mark, Danny and Chanel" Drake said introducing me to them. I smiled at them and they did the same.

"Where's your drinks guys! Lemme call the waiter over" Jason said turning around and waving at someone.

Drake moved his head closer to mine.

"Do you want something without alcohol?" I thought about it. I had never drank before but I didn't want to look stupid in front of Drake's friends.

" no I can take something with alcohol" I said to him with a grin.

"Okay ma" he replied to me.

"What would you like" the scantily dressed female waiter asked in a Albanian accent.

"I'll have a Typhoon and she'll have a Sapphire Sin" Drake said to the waiter who nodded and scurrily ran off quick as she could in those fake Louis Vuitton's. I was curious about the Sapphire Sin.

"So how did you guys meet up" Jason said leaning back with his arm around Chanel. Mark was just taking several sips from his beer bottle.

Drake glanced at me before opening his mouth. "Met her at a Starbucks, she let me cut in line and then we just got a conversation flowing" he shrugged.

"That's a sweeeet story" Mark slurred placing his empty bottle down. He was already drunk.

"You look a lot younger than him, how old are you?" Danny asked. I guess it was my time to lie now.

"I just turned 26" I said to him.When in reality I just turned 18.

"Ah, I could have sworn that you were a lot younger, I'm usually good with guessing ages and you look like you're in high school" I looked at Drake in a panic. "No offence of course"

"None taken" I laughed nervously.

I looked around the club seeing a couple of men staring at me hungrily. I started to rethink my dress choice and got closer to Drake. Any closer and I would have been practically sitting on him.

The waiter set our drinks on the table and Drake picked them both up and handed me mine. His friends were having a chat amongst themselves.

I took a sip of the drink bearing in mind that it was my first time trying alcohol.

It wasn't too bad actually, it tasted of raspberry and some other fruits I couldn't make out.I sipped it slowly making small talk with his friends who I was starting to grow to.I finished my glass and wanted to get another before..

"I ordered us some shots, everyone's taking part" Chanel shouted just as a tray full of mini glasses filled with liquid arrived.

Okay I think I've seen this kind of thing happen on TV once. There were 6 rows each so 6 shots per person. I picked up a glass along with everyone else.

"On the count of three, 1,2....3" she screamed. Everyone gulped theirs down and I poured it in my mouth and let it burn down my throat. I made a sour face at the taste and realised that they were still going at it. I picked up another glass and tried sipping it with my eyes closed. That didn't really help as I got the same effect as before.

When I finished my 2nd I looked at the tray seeing all the other columns empty. I felt embarrassed.

"Loser buys the round, it's tradition" Mark said.

"It's okay I'll pay for her" Drake said.

"No no, I've got cash I'll pay" I didn't want to look like I needed him to help me out as if I was desperate. Okay maybe I've started overthinking stuff again.

"Babe don't worry I got it"he nonchalantly said. I decided to just leave it there and not fight him on it.

"Who wants to dance" Chanel yelled getting up and dragging Jason over to the dance floor. We all got up and went to the dance floor. Mark and Danny started grinding behind random girls.

I felt so awkward in my mind but I tried to just find the groove in the music and swayed with Drake.

It was a little hard to see properly with all the flashing lights and the recurring dizzy feeling at the back of my mind.

Drake turned me around and rested his hands onto my hips. I felt him bring me closer to him as well as guiding my body with his.

This burning sensation crawled under my skin from his touch and it gave my stomach butterflies. I could feel his face close to the back of my neck and his breath fanning over my skin.

I allowed my head to fall back onto his shoulder with my eyes closed to soak up this moment. No thinking about what's going to happen tommorow or about everything that's happened that I can't change.

I felt incredible, light and at ease. It was like no experience I have ever felt and I wasn't sure if it was just the alcohol taking over.

The music felt never ending. It was as if we were dancing for hours when in reality it had to only have been a few minutes.

I noticed Danny talking with a girl at the bar and the sight of all the alcohol bottles behind the counter made me feel thirsty. I found myself at the bar with Drake beside me and I ordered the Sapphire Sin again. I drank half quite quickly and Drake smirked at me as he took a swig of his beer bottle.

"You don't need to worry about me drinking by the way " I chimed to him.

"Okay I won't, but I'll make sure you don't fall while you dance" I gave him a thumbs up and gulped the rest of my drink down and dragged him with me to the crowd to start dancing again.
