Chaos ×× Colby Brock

sneaking around

Salem

"Colby is going to Brennen's, are you sure you don't want to come back to my apartment and have pizza? We miss you!", Sam drunkenly rambles as he holds onto Kat. I want them to get to their Uber safe, so decided to walk along.

Colby was a few feet behind ordering his own Uber, so I'm sure he couldn't hear Sam. I open the car door for Kat, so she can get him in without problems.
"I miss you guys to, but not tonight Sammy. We can make plans soon, okay? Kat and I will talk more on it.", I pinch his cheek as he gives me a pout. Kat laughs when he reaches out to smack my hand away. I say goodbye to everyone else as they climb in and grab a ten dollar bill out of my wallet, offering it to the Uber driver. He was gonna have one hell of a ride with this drunk ass group.

"Bye Salem, bye Colby. I love you!", Jake hangs out the window making me gasp. Kevin quickly pulls him back in and I silently praise God in those few seconds.

I start scrolling through my phone, ready to click my uber app, before Colby yells my name from behind me. I quickly turn around, my palms immidiately getting moist from the anxiety. He had taken off his black jean jacket, and started walking towards me, not breaking the awkward eye contact. I felt like everything around me was moving in slow motion the closer he got.

"Hey.. are you heading home?", I stare at him and shake my head yes. His head moves up and down mumbling a small, "cool."

Why is he making small conversation? and why do I feel so awkward? maybe I don't care about him anymore, and could care less about where this conversation is going?

lmao, c'mon Salem. Don't kid yourself, you care. Too much.

We stand there in silence looking down at the pavement. I felt sorry for anyone who is witnessing this interaction, I was practically cringing myself.

I watch him adjust his t-shirt, and roughly tug his hair backwards multiple times. He looked way to good. and at this point I want to go home with him.

We are both drunk and needy, I doubt we will even regret it in the morning.

What the fuck are you saying? Haven't you learned your lesson, you got yout heart broke in two months.

I turn towards him, twisting my lips to the side. Cole was already looking at me and raises his eyebrows, "What? What's that pretty little mind thinking about?"

pretty little mind? smooth fuck.

I give him a perplexed look before shrugging, "I know you aren't going to Brennen's. Wanna hang out?"

it was true, he was gonna go home. He just didn't want to hurt Sam's feelings.

"My place?", a small smirk plays on his plump lips, as I look away with a small blush from the little gesture.

is this really happening right now?

"Yeah, can't wait to see the new place."

I was more excited about seeing his bedroom.
