As they made their way to the slightly crowded bar,Daniel asked,
"What do you want to drink baby?"

'You had me hooked again from the minute you sat down. The way you bit your lip, got my head spinnin around'

She shrugged. "I don't know, you're the one who drinks often, not me. I just want alcohol."

He nodded and ordered them drinks, making sure Alex's wasn't too strong. He didn't need her going home completely wasted or vomiting later.

She took her drink from him and sat on a barstool, taking a sip. She coughed slightly as the alcohol hit the back of her throat.

Alex couldn't help but shudder at the feeling of the burning liquor sliding down her throat.

"You okay?" he asked, taking a sip of his drink, running a hand through his hair.

'after a drink or two I was putty in your hands. I don't know if I have the strength to stand'

Alex nodded.

"Yeah I'm fine. The first sip just burns."

And with that, she took another sip, only coughing slightly. He nodded and downed his drink, starting to have a difficult time keeping his eyes off of the girl next to him.

Daniel ordered them both another round of drinks, watching as Alex quickly downed her first drink to start drinking her second. Daniel grinned, keeping his eyes on the girl next to him.

"You want to go dance princess?"

'trouble troublemaker yeah, that's your middle name. I know you're no good but you're stuck in my brain'

Alex didn't even hesitate, pinching the bridge of her nose and downing her drink.

"Sure let's go Dani."

"Dani, seriously?" he asked, standing up.

"I hate that nickname."

She simply shrugged and set her glass down, making her way to the dance floor. He followed her and made sure not to make her uncomfortable. But, the alcohol had begun to affect them both and Daniel slowly placed a hand on her waist, pulling her a little closer.

' it's like you're always there in the corners of my mind. I see your silhouette every time I close my eyes'

She giggled at his actions, taking a close look at his features, almost as if she was trying to imprint his image into her mind.

He smiled and quickly spun her, her hands landing on his chest.

Her eyes locked with his for a moment before Alex  pulled back slightly, taking her hands off of his chest. Alex shook her head slightly, finding it harder to take her eyes off of him.

Her throat burned slightly as she danced, a smile playing on her lips. She mentally asked herself why she had agree to this night, why she had agreed to go out with him to a nightclub.

She had lied to her parents and friends and was doing illegal things without them knowing.

And to Alex, it felt so good.

'there must be poison in those fingers of yours. Cause I keep comin back for more'

Daniel grinned and pulled her a little closer, taking in her features. He began to notice how soft and light her eyes were and how her hair always fell in a perfect part.
