Heart Race [Joe and Caspar]

[8]

A/N

Okay so this chapter starts off where the previous chapter ended.

Enjoy!

********

Melissa sliced one thin, vertical line across the area to the right of the folding area of her forearm. After making the first slice across her arm, she felt like it was only reasonable to harm herself when a memory with Joe ran across her mind.

She thought about the first time they met in person.

*Flashback*

Tonight was the first time that Melissa had ever been to a club of some sorts. She had the help of Hannah to pick out the outfit she was to wear. Hannah made sure that Melissa wouldn't wear anything too revealing to where guys take it upon themselves to rape her.

They settled on a black dress with flowers above the black background. It went down to just above her knees, so it was appropriate to wear for her not to get into any mischief.

She had straightened her hair and put a little extra make-up on. She felt as if it wouldn't make sense to wear heels if they were going to be dancing. So instead, she settled on some black flats.

Feeling alright with her appearance, she ventured off to the lounge of the one floored flat her and Hannah were sharing at the moment. Hannah would live with her boyfriend of one and a half years in his two floored flat, but he currently shares with another person.

Hannah opposed the idea of the four of them living together, but Melissa and Joe (Caspar's flatmate) have only talked over video chat. Tonight was going to be the first time they met in person. Both Melissa and Joe were extremely nervous.

They wouldn't admit it to anyone, but they both had a teeny crush on each other. They were both amazing at acting, so whenever they would video chat with anyone else with them, they were able to hide their liking towards each other.

"Melissa, you ready?" Hannah asked as she stepped into the lounge area.

Melissa looked up at Hannah and nodded. Standing up from the position she was in on the sofa, she grabbed her phone and car keys. It was Melissa's responsibility to drive Hannah because she doesn't drink, therefore keeping a car crash from happening.

They both stepped into Melissa's car and backed out of their 'driveway'.

Hannah pulled her phone out to text Caspar telling him that they just left their flat.

It wasn't long until they arrived at the club. 'Cupid's Bow' was the name. The name could have been taken as a speed dating place.

Titles can be deceiving.

Hannah and Melissa walked in and got a place to sit at the bar. A man who looked around twenty seven came to where Hannah and Melissa sat and asked what they wanted to drink. Hannah ordered a Skinny Margarita while Melissa just ordered a water.

"What, too afraid to have a little fun?" The bartender joked as he filled up Melissa's water.

"I'm driving." Melissa told him after taking a sip from the plastic coal coloured straw.

He nodded, looked at the people sitting at the bar -two couples intensively making out, and a guy who looked about middle thirties looking down at his beer- and he leaned down on the plastered countertop.

"So, you two ladies doing anything after?" The bartender flirted.

"This lady, is coming back to my place probably." Caspar walked up behind Hannah, draping his arm over her shoulder.
