The Dancing Torera

28

Mariela and I giggled and danced the night away in the Spanish city, going from club to club meeting some of Esteban's paparazzi along the way. "Come on Anais!" Mariela laughed, pulling me through the crowds to hide me from the flashing lights of the paparazzi.

"MARIELA!!" all my friends and fellow dancers from my team screamed, each of them hugging me with mirth.

"We missed you so much Anais" Luana frowns, hugging my waist tight. "And look at this dress! It so tight Anais" she gasped.

"Right! I haven't seen you all for so long!" I chuckle, returning her embrace. Although only a month passed, it seemed like forever!

"Come on CHURCH GIRL! 5 shots on me!" Luana yells, riling up the rest of my friends. I shoo them away and giggle, blushing at all the attention.

"Come on Mrs. Jefe" Mariela teased me, pushing me to the drinks the tender had already laid across the center of the counter.

"come on! DRINK IT"

"DRINK IT"

"DRINK IT" Each girl yells, coaxing me to consume. Finally, I obliged and tossed back the shot; cringing as the sharp liquid stung my throat.

"Aye, Ms. Jefe! Smile!" a random paparazzi yelled, snapping my picture midway. Mariela started cursing him out in Spanish but I stopped her, smiling with pride. "Will Esteban see these pictures?" I ask, holding up another drink.

"Esteban will be the least of your worries! All of Espana will see this!" he chuckled, snapping another picture.

"Will they now?" I smiled behind a lazy chuckle.

"Anais, ignore him and let's go" Mariela murmured, pulling me away so we could leave.

"NO! NO!" I screeched, laughing through a chuckle. "I am the girlfriend of El Jefe. The most famous bachelor of ESPANA! I should be holding myself with decorum!" I bragged sarcastically. A small crowd starts to gather around, cheering me on.

"Tell Esteban he can go SUCK IT" I yelled, standing to the counter of the bar and chugging down three more glasses. A few more paparazzi snapped their flashy cameras at my direction, finding pleasure with my antics.

"Anais! Enough!" Mariela snapped, leading me off the bar.

"Aww come on Anais! Shoot us a big flirty smile" another paparazzi guy yelled, grabbing my arm with force.

"F**K OFF!!" I cursed, flipping the bird to the flashing lights around me. Mariela led me away and hailed down a cab so we could return home.

"AWWW COME ON ANAIS!" the paparazzi followed after us, "are you telling us that Esteban is an eligible bachelor once again?"

"I don't know? Does a bull have two horns" I smile charmingly, embracing the bright glares of each pap.

"How would El Jefe feel about his girl dancing in bars and climbing tables?" another short man yelled.

"IDK? why don't you ask Estaban yourself? You know where he lives you stalkers!" I yell before a yellow cab comes to pick me up.

"And how would he feel about you dressed in that short skimpy dress?"

"Knowing him? He'll probably jack off to it the moment he sees it" I boast, a prideful smile filling my lips.

"Wait! Wait!" they yell after me.

"Come on Anais" Mariela snaps, pushing me inside the cab. The clock on the radio read 3am. I had never been out this late...not even with Estaban.

"What was that Anais?" Mariela groaned, untying the scrunchie from her hair. I pouted as I heard her question but still continued to stare out the window.

"I....I don't know? Payback" I murmur, scoffing at my own confession. I knew Esteban would freak once he saw the headlines and pics from the gossip magazines but I wanted him to miss me. I wanted him to see that I still had a life without him, whether I was girlfriend to El Jefe or not.

"He's going to freak Anais, you know how possessive men are! What were you thinking?" she implies.

"Maybe I want him to freak!" I pouted, leaning forward to loosen the straps off my heels. Marila only chuckled then rolled her eyes. "Now I am going to have to call that cero"

"Who?" I asked, still focused on the winding streets.

"Hector....he's going to have to work a miracle by the morning. They're probably printing your pictures right now to send to the press by the morning."

"Let them print it" I shrugged, not fearful of the backlash I would get. I was already the whore of Espana. My grandma hated me and I had no family left. I had nothing else to lose......except Esteban.

The rest of the car ride was silent until I dozed off, falling asleep in the unfamiliar car.
