Emerald Eyes

1 - Nightclub

„Line! ", my best friend Anna screamed, „Are you ready? " I peeked out of our little bathroom and looked at her, being all dressed up already. "Just give me a second, will you?" I asked. I just had to finish up my make-up and then checked my outfit in the mirror: a black mini skirt, a red checkered blouse and my favorite heels. I tied my blonde hair up into a messy bun and hopped out of the bathroom. "Ready.", I smiled. Anna and I grabbed our purses and walked out our little dorm room. It was the first night we got to spend off campus for a little while, mid-terms were killing us. But now we were out for a night of fun, laughter and music. Anna had picked out a new night club, which had just opened its doors in the city center. We lined up with the other people and waited until we were up front. Then we entered the club, grabbed a drink at the bar and started dancing the night away. After a few hours of jamming to the music, Anna decided to go to the toilet and meet me in the outside area of the club after that for a little break. I went outside and leant against the wall, taking in a deep breath of the cool, fresh air. Suddenly, two handsome looking guys approached me. "Hey, beautiful.", one of them smirked, "What are you doing out here all alone?" "I was just enjoying a quiet moment out here, when you guys arrived.", I answered, putting an extra emphasis on the word "quiet". "Oh, come on.", the other guy said, "You should go and have fun out there." "Leave me alone. My friend will be back in a second.", I grumbled, but the guys didn't seem to take any notice. Typical. I just couldn't stand that over-exaggerated manhood, they both reminded me of my ex, son of a bitch. Anna, where are you when I need you? Luckily, she arrived just seconds after that and I was ready to go and leave those guys behind. But no, Anna had other plans. "Hey Line!", she smiled, "Won't you introduce me to your new friends?" I rolled my eyes. Pleeeease send help god, please. "Well.", I said, "They didn't bother introducing themselves either, so I guess.... No. Can we please go now?" But Anna ignored me and just had eyes for the taller one of the boys, he was dark haired and wore a black leather jacket. "Hiiii, I am Anna.", she said, taking things into her hand, "What about you, handsome?" The guy smirked and said: "Oh excuse us. I'm Julian, and this is Martijn." "Hi.", I grumbled and rolled my eyes again. Just seconds later, Anna had run off to the dancefloor with that Julian guy, leaving me and Martijn behind. I didn't even have a chance to protest. "Soooo...", he said, "I guess it's just the both of us left. Since they betrayed us, would you mind if I invited you for a drink?" I sighed and shook my head: "Don't you understand? I do not need your company. So you can go and run after them. I don't mind." I turned on my heels and started to walk away. I didn't get far though, because this Martijn guy grabbed me by the shoulder and turned me around. "Not so fast, pleeeease. You're hot when you're angry.", he said and his big blue eyes looked at me pleadingly. "Ma... Martijn, right? Seriously, what do you want?", I asked. "Your company.", he answered, "Come on." "Okay.", I gave in, "But just one drink. And only because I need to wait for Anna. Understood?" Martijn nodded, a winning expression on his face. Then he grabbed my hand and led the way to the bar. I followed him and when we arrived, he asked: "So what can I get you?" I just said: "Impress me. It's your choice." He talked to the barkeeper and got back with two colorful cocktails with berries and lime. I took a sip and damn, that boy had a good taste. "I hate to admit it, but that was a good choice.", I admitted. "Weeeeell. I told you so.", he replied and then asked me to dance. We danced for a while, until we ran into Julian and Anna on the dancefloor and they joined us. He had his hand around her waist. Ewww. Anna, seriously? After a while, I got bored and asked Anna to leave. It was late anyway. It took a while to separate her from Julian and finally get going, but eventually I managed. When we finally left and got back to our dorm room, she still continued to gush about him. I sighed and hopped into my bed as quickly as possible. Anna and the guys... a never ending story.
