*Lauren*

What the fuck did I just do? Am I this person now? Just hooking up with random girls whenever I've had a couple drinks?

You know what!? Screw that! I am single and Erin is amazingly sexy. She feels so good all pressed up against me on the dance floor. And man, can she move! I watch her as she sways her hips from side to side in a sensual way with her back against me. I can't help but bite on my bottom lip as I feel her press up against my center. My hands gripping her waist and guiding her, taking control of her movements, making her move just the way I want her to. I have this feeling in my lower tummy, almost like someone just lit a bunch of sparklers in there. This tingly feeling feels so good and the more she moves, the more it explodes and begins to reach all parts of my body.

She spins around to face me again and this time our bodies are moving in sync with each other, in sync with the music. It feels like there's no one else here, just her and I, moving as one body, as one soul and Saturn is our world.

This has got to be a result of the Mojitos I had just downed, because this feels like a dream. Whatever it is, I don't ever want to wake up.

She's so good with her hands. Everything feels heightened right now and I feel like I'm in somewhat of a trance. A good trance. The kind you don't want to break out of. She wraps her arms around my neck and she looks up into my eyes with this look on her face. I could tell she wanted me just as much as I wanted her and this time, she didn't need to ask. I leaned in and kissed her, softly, sensually, the only way I wanted to- tasting her and softly sucking on her bottom lip before using my teeth to softly tug at it. My hands working their way from her lower back, sliding up and lifting her shirt with them as they made their way there. With a quick skilled movement, I slip both hands under her shirt and my hands land just below her bra. Her skin feels soft and damp as a result of her sensual dancing. She tenses ever so slightly the moment she feels my hands on her skin, but immediately relaxes and gives in to me completely. Our kiss becoming deeper, more heated and now I begin to notice the eyes on us.

With much difficulty, I pull my body out of her grip.

"I'm sorry, I can't do this.."

I spin on my heels and walk towards the door as fast as I can. The room is spinning now and the music sounds muffled and repetitive. I need to get out.
I burst through the exit and almost instantly, the cold air slaps me in the face and with it came reality:

What were you thinking Lauren? It's only been 4 months and you're already shoving your tongue down another girl's throat! Get a grip of yourself. This isn't you!

"What the...!!" my shoes are soaked.

Great.

I found myself standing in a puddle of who-knows-what. I'm 2 blocks up the road from Saturn now and instantly sobered up. I figure I'd pick up some coffee and head home to sleep it off.

Suddenly, I hear something. The most beautiful voice I have ever heard, singing something so familiar. My mind is instantly distracted. My initial mission to get coffee is now replaced by the mission to follow this blissful sound. I've suddenly forgotten all about my wet feet and I begin trudging up the street in my soaked All Stars. The magical sound filling up my ears more and more as I get closer and closer to the source until finally I reach my destination.

I look up, and the pink and white flashing sign reads: Papi's Corner Karaoke Bar.

Looking through the glass window, I see her.

It's her! The beautiful brunette girl from the park!

Camila.

Her voice magically reaches halfway down the block and now seeing her a few meters in front of me sends the most intense vibration through my body that makes my entire being break out into a shiver. Goosebumps cover my arms and legs and I instinctively try to get rid of them by rubbing my hands up and down my arms.

"... I know a girl
She puts the color inside of my world
But, she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hand
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe It's got nothing to do with me...

Fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.."

I smile and my hand reaches for the door and without thinking I walk right in and slowly try and make my way through the crowd to get closer to her. I don't take my eyes off her. I can't.
She is so confident, and so so beautiful! Soon enough, the song ends and she smiles this coy smile, and my heart feels like it's about to jump through my rib cage. The girl standing next to her excitedly jumps up and down and kisses her on the cheek.

My heart drops.

It leaves my body and makes me stop in my tracks.

Jealous, Lauren? Seriously!? You don't even know her. They might just be friends, or maybe they're more than friends. Either way, it's not supposed to feel like this. Don't make a fool of yourself!

What am I doing?? She's obviously really happy.

I turn around and start towards the exit and just then, two guys with drinks are trying to get past so I stop and turn sideways to let them through. Just after they pass through, someone walks straight into me with an unexpected force.

*OOF*

I turn quickly to see if they're okay, and to my surprise, I don't see anyone behind me. Confused, I try to turn back around but then she pops up inches away from me..

"I'm so sorry, I wasn't loo...."

My eyes meet hers and I swear it feels like my ankles are giving in. It feels like my stomach is devouring itself and my head feels like it wants to implode. I couldn't comprehend how the girl from the park, the girl I couldn't stop thinking about, is standing inches away from me right now. She is right here, so close I can smell her sweet, sexy perfume. I can literally feel her body giving off heat. This was my chance- if I don't leap now, I know I will regret it.

Use your words, Lauren!! Be charming, be seductive, be cute! Just be something!!

"Hi... Camila?"
