32|Brooke's party(2)

Everyone around me, enjoyed themselves, dancing, chatting (maybe flirting) whereas I was drinking at a corner like an an alcoholic idiot. I am not accusing anybody for that.

'Should I try something new?. Like introduce myself to someone but most of the people I talk to thinks I am naive.'

"Oi, Captain Jack sparrow. What are you doing?" Mai appeared within the crowd dancing to the beat of 'Uptown funk' She moved her arms and snapped her fingers, Carlton was just behind her dancing on his own.


Do I look like a pirate? Mai never lack nicknames for me. I rolled my eyes and snapped.

"I am drinking."

"Don't you wanna know, where Alex is because he is looking for you."

"Wel. I am here. By the way, what was he doing all this time?"

"Chatting with Brooklyn. How many those did you have?"

She said pointing her fingers towards the glass, I was holding.

"Wel. I had to one and half of these but don't worry I am sipping deliberately admiring every drop."

She nodded nervously and went back to dancing with Carlton. I tapped my feet and took another sip. When I felt a hand over my shoulder.

"Ray, Here you are?" Alexander beamed at me.

"Here I am, enjoying myself like a baby."

His hands were inside his pockets with a glass of champagne. He gave me a 'You are not funny' look. I smiled and kept the glass down on the nearby table.

"So.."

"So.."

Wait, I know how to make this conversation not any more awkward.

"I had another crazy dream. It was not scary but really... Weird and interesting. " He looked impressed. He grinned and said two words.


"Go on!"

"I was like a hunter. I was practicing archery."

He furrowed his eyebrows and curved his lips. I hope he doesn't start to think that I am indeed crazy pants. He finally replied,

"Exceptional."

I nodded as he didn't say much, we looked around and smiled, After some time, he broke the silence, and to be honest, I was glad that he did because I was tired of being one, starting the conversation

"You want to dance, maybe or something."

He said in a tone, which made me pretty sure that he was in a state of confusion on whether to ask me or not."

"Yeah! Sure."

He took my hand and we gently made our way to the dance floor, which would have a little more graceful if there weren't too many people as someone elbowed in my chest and I didn't want to ruin the moment by saying 'ouch', 'oww' or whatever the hell I would have said.

The music began to slow down a little, I looked around myself, everyone was dancing with arms around one another (something I preferred saying 'ball dance' or Disney dance') I looked nervously towards Alexander, who god knows why was giving a shy smile,

Alexander gave me his hand, like a Disney prince (though I felt he would match the character of Flynn Rider from 'The Tangled') I held him and placed my hands on his broad shoulder. He gradually placed his hands on my back and we started to move to the rhythm of the music.

"So, Do you like to dance?" He asked with a smirk on his face. I kept my eyes fixed on his shoulders. As I knew that glancing towards his face, would make me start blushing


"Yeah! But mostly at the end of each month after receiving my salary." I said quietly,

He chuckled, “I misjudged you, You can be funny.”

"

Ouch, but I will take that as a compliment."

Well. That's better than my misjudgment, at least he didn't think I was a serial killer.

"Do you want to have some cake?"
I asked moving my eyes towards the table. My heart started to beat faster, when he bought his face closer to mine, I thought he was going to kiss me but he just whispered,

"I will love too."
