"Step on it!"I shriek as we speed through the car crowded streets."Scott wants to race?"Bella questions with a look I know all to well,"two can play that game,"she forces her expensive looking heel into the gas pedal.
The entire vehicle jerks at the sudden decision,sending us flying down the moonlit road at a dangerous speed.The adrenaline shoots up my veins,my brain feeling like it could burst with excitement.
This right here,
This is what I live for."Red light,"Bella sighs as we come to a stop at the crossroad,my leg won't stop bouncing with anticipation as I peer through the rear view mirror every two seconds.Until I spot a familiar dull,grey speck in the distance,
"Okay,Go!"I say twisting my body all the way around to look through the back window,
"We're still on red,"she replies,
The ashy BMW zooms towards us,"No we need to go now,"
"Val!I'm not going through a red,we'll crash!"She exclaims,trying to talk some sense into me,
"He'll ruin our night,we have to loose him before he realises which club we're going to!"I try to reason with her,
"I don't care how much you don't want Scott to join us,I am not crashing another car."Bella states flashing me her crazy serious eyes,
"Fine then,"I say turning back towards the front and crossing my arms,"Could you put the roof down?"
The dark panelling slides down the back of the ruby,red car and our music now fills the once silent streets.The sweet aroma of a summer's night fills the car and Bella's midnight black hair gently flows in the breeze.
Any second now,"Oh fuck it."She mumbles and slams her foot down causing us to hurtle through the stream of cars coming from the right.Wheels screech and burn from Bella's shitty attempt to dodge them all.
Turning around,I can see Olly's car taking the place we have just left,but considering all the vehicles we just almost hit are blocking the connection to us,it doesn't look like he's going to catch up.
"Justice!"I celebrate,slamming my hand onto the car's side,
Bella simply looks delighted,"I've never done anything like that before,it was awesome!"She says gushing at every word,"I wanna do it again."
Before I can even say anything,she puts more pressure into the gas pedal (if that's even possible,) and we slip through yet another flaming,red light.I watch her face overflow with a tremendous amount of thrill.
"Faster!"I yell,loving seeing this side of Bella that rarely makes an appearance,she does as I say and we shoot off into the night like a red blur.By now,we can't even see Olly anymore so I tell Bella to head straight to the club.
The obnoxious sign announcing 'cloud 9' (the rooftop club) beams through the dim lit car park,not even bothering to put the roof back up,we both hop out of the car,in a fully activated badass mode.
I hold my golden shoulder bag close to me,remembering the small pen knife and bottle of pepper spray that I'm carrying.Nearing to the long line of people waiting to get in,I strut straight up to the bouncer and without a word he pushes open the glass door for Bella and I.
"What was that about?"She asks in shock,"Only important people can do that,we're not important people."
"I know the guy who owns the building,"I excuse myself,praying that Bella will fall for yet another one of my lame lies.Luckily,the man holding a tray of champagne catches her attention and I know I'm off the hook.
•Replay song•
She spins back around with two glasses now in her hand,"Can you believe they give out free drinks here?"She slightly shouts over the loud music.
Is she crazy?
Before Bella's lips even make contact with the glass' rim,I snatch both drinks out of her hands and pour them into the bin by my side.
"What was that for?!
Oh come on,doesn't every girl know?
Pour your own drinks.I grab her hand,and begin pulling her in the direction of the bar,"This isn't your average club Bella,the men in here are rich,corrupt and dirty.Those drinks could've been spiked,I wouldn't put it past any of the people in here."I say making eye contact with the bar tender,"two shots please,"I say pulling out some money from my purse.
But something causes me to pause as a figure takes a seat next to me,
"On me,put it on my tab Tony,"the man says to the bar tender who's name is apparently Tony.
Just what I needed...(note the sarcasm :)
"No it's fine,I've got it,"I say looking up at the man,
"Rowan?!"
"Good to see you too darling,"he chuckles taking a sip of his drink,
"What brings you here?"I ask him,noticing Bella's extremely baffled expression,
"Same thing that you're probably here for,"he smiles,turning to me,"to get mortally shit faced."
I giggle at the fact I can already tell he's tipsy,
"I've got to get back to my booth,we're on the roof,you and your friend should come say hi to the boys later,"He gestures towards Bella.
Not gonna happen,Bella will get suspicious.
"Um yeah,We'll see."I say before he gets up and fades into the people filled room,
"Who was that?"Bella questions whilst wiggling eyebrows,
I look over to the bar tender,"Can we have four more shots please?"
I down all three of my shots in record time,probably not a good idea.
But I wouldn't find that out until later.
