Time of My Life {l.h.}

six

"I could see you as a stripper." Trixie said, glancing me up and down and then settling with her answer. I chuckled and rolled my eyes at her.

"Well you look like a bouncer at a club." I replied and she glared.

"Are you calling me fat?" She spat and I almost fell out of my seat.

"Oh my god, Trix. No, I'm not calling you fat, I'm saying you're well built for-" I said and rubbed my eyes. 

"You know what, just pull an Elsa." I said and took a sip of coffee.

Colton suddenly entered the room and sat down in a huff, a scowl lining his face. 

"What the hell does that mean? How does one, 'pull an Elsa'?" Trixie asked and I groaned.

"You know, you 'let it go'?" I sarcastically replied. She rolled her eyes in annoyment. 

"I swear if I hear one more person reference Frozen I will be pulling an Elsa from a place where the sun don't shine." Trixie said and Melodie came in.

"Oh my gosh did someone just say Elsa? I love that movie so much you guys. My favorite song is Love is an Open Door. Although I freaking hate Hans and I hope Medusa turns him to stone. You know, I always wondered what would happen if Anna would have run to Kristoff like what if they were also true lovers? Then what? And then Elsa could have died, but it's a Disney movie so that probably wouldn't happen, plus everyone loves her-" I couldn't take anymore of Melodie's droning and picked up a spoon and stuck it in her mouth.

She was so surprised she stopped talking...for a second.

"Well that was rude, what if I choked? You know, these are also really unsanitary because no one changes them and they just sit here on this table all the time, collecting dust until one of us picks it up to use and even then I bet we don't wipe it off. Well, I do but you guys probably don't." 

"Melodie!" Our manager called and I breathed a sigh of relief. Trixie looked like she lost a couple hundred brain cells but Colton still looked exactly the same as when he first came in.

"Col what's wrong you've been like this all day." I said and Trixie got up to leave and give us some privacy.

He didn't speak and only stared down at the table in front of him. I was beginning to become really worried.

"Colton?"

No answer.

"Is this because of the other night? I'm sorry I didn't let you kiss me, it's just-"

"My girlfriend is pregnant." 

(>.<)        (>.<)        (>.<)        (>.<)

"And he just got up and left after that?" Mari asked, taking a sip of her cocoa and staring at me with wide eyes. I nodded.

I came home from work and she still wasn't talking to me so I tried for hours to convince her that I didn't like her future husband until she believed me. It took, FOR. EV. ER.

Luke has been out all day and I haven't seen him so that made it all the more easier though. He would have made me nervous and feel worse because then I'd be lying to them both and I especially hate lying to Luke.

Anyway, now we were good and she asked about my day and what had been happening recently so I told her everything. Except for those few key moments with me and Luke.

"Yeah he just...disappeared." I looked down at the floor and sighed. She reached out and patted my shoulder. I looked up as she gave me a sympathetic smile and sighed again.

"What's going on you guys?" Luke suddenly appeared and he sat next to me. I looked at him surprised. Mari clenched her teeth that Luke didn't sit by her and she "hmpfhed" then got up to go to the kitchen.

"Shit, Luke. It took me forever to convince her there was nothing going on between us." 

Luke's breathing became uneven as he looked at me.

"That's something I wanted to talk to you about..." He trailed off and I looked him in the eyes. The closeness of our faces was undoubtably wrong considering he was engaged and I took a deep breath.

"I'm not so sure it's nothing." He replied before he dipped his head down.

He stopped just above my lips and I realized the stupidity that was about to happen.

I shoved him away and grabbed my coat, then ran out the door.

He was immediately on my trail.

I reached outside in the cold air and I realized that fall was coming soon. 

"Wait, Brielle stop I'm sorry." Luke said and I slowed my pace but didn't stop. He hooked his arm through mine and dragged me out of sight of the apartment. He pushed me up against a wall and stared into my eyes.

"I've been wanting to do this...for a very long time." He said and I gasped because I knew what was coming next, yet I couldn't control myself enough to stop it.

He pressed his lips to mine.

***A/N***

OMFG

He kissed her. 

What? 

DUUUUUDDDDDEEEE Mari is gonna be pissed.
