It was 10pm and I was waiting for my friend Amy to pick me up to go clubbing. After weeks of non-stop schoolwork and busting my ass in the small, but popular coffee shop in town, I was ready for summer to start.

School was finally over for the year and I would only be working 3 days a week. Finally I could breathe again. Her blue Subaru pulled up in the alley behind my house and I quietly tip-toed across the warm grass being careful not to trip over anything on my way. I was very accident prone.

Amy was grinning from ear to ear when I saw her and I quickly hopped in her car and we sped off.

"Finally we can go have some fun together," she squealed. I grinned back at her and tossed her fake ID into her lap. I was usually a good kid, but sometimes I just needed to dance. My parents would be heartbroken and furious if they found out I had managed to sneak into a few clubs this past year.

"So, where are we headed? O'Briens? Hobbs?"

"Not this time Lai, there's a new place that just opened a couple weeks ago! No one can stop talking about it!" She gushed in excitement. I felt my stomach doing flips at the news of a new club. I wondered who I would meet, what the music would be like, the excitement of Amy rubbed off onto me.

She pulled over at an empty looking street and I looked at her in confusion.

"Where's the club?" I asked.

"Well, there are so many people who are at it that it would be nearly impossible to park within 2 blocks of it," she explained. She always had a reason for everything. I groaned at the thought of having to walk a couple blocks in my heels.

We managed to get to the club within 10 minutes and I could practically see the walls of the place shaking. Lights were flashing everywhere and I saw bodies swaying back and forth to the dubstep rhythms. Cars flooded the street and the line went on for ages. I sighed at the thought of having to wait that long to get in. I sighed and listened to Amy rant about her new flavor of the week and how hot he supposedly was.

"Excuse me Miss?" An unfamiliar voice called. I spun around and nearly fell into the person behind me.

"Oh dear, I am so clumsy, sorry!" I gushed and the man who appeared to have been talking just chuckled.

"Not a problem, you wouldn't happen to know if a Laila Mundy is here would you?"

"Um yeah, that's me," I answered nervously. Who would be looking for me? Oh god! My parents found out, they probably called the cops!

"Shit," I hissed under my breath. I was rather confused when the man lightly grabbed my arm and pulled me towards the enterance of the club. I quickly latched onto Amy and pulled her with us. He nodded at the security guard by the door and we were pushed into the club.

"Enjoy yourselves!" He called before shutting the door.

"That was weird," Amy yelled over the loud music. I nodded in agreement and we made our way over to the dance floor. I wasnt going to complain about being let in before all those people. I probably would have been standing for hours.

Amy looked at me and mouthed "Back at 12?" I nodded and she grinned before disappearing. I let the music take control of my body and got lost in it. My hips swayed naturally, something my mother would scold me for if she saw. She never liked dirty dancing. Not even the movie.

I felt something tickle my ear and giggled, I was very ticklish.

"What a pretty thing," A raspy voice whispered into my ear, sending shivers down my spine. I turned around to find no one behind me but à random couple grinding against one another. I shrugged and continued to dance. I was a bit paranoid, but this was my first night of freedom, no one was going to get in my way.
