It was now 7pm and I was beyond exhausted, not physically but mentally. The rest of my classes were absolutely hell, the rest of my professors went straight to the point and If I had to sit through another lecture I would die.
"I don't think I like this anymore." I said, pointing at the room pouting, catching Stephanie's attention. She was laying next to me looking at the ceiling.
"It's only your first day of classes." she laughed. "You'll get used to them and it won't be so bad just give it time." she said knowing what I was talking about.
"Ugh but I feel so drained already" I complained turning on my side to face her, she turned and faced me. We were stuck in a staring contest until she reached over and caressed my cheeks. I looked at her and laughed. " I got something to tell you." she said staring at me still.
"What?" I watched as she slowly leaned forward and right when her lips were barely touching mine, she brought them to my ear and whispered, "Stop being a lil bitch." I burst out laughing and pushed her away from me.
"You're an ass." I said sitting up but she was still laughing until tears came out of her eye.
"Yeah but I'm a fucking comedian." she said giggling as she sat up and crossed her legs. "Why don't we head out?" she suggested.
"It's Monday night."
"So? let's go to my brother's bar, they're always busy." she said getting up and grabbing her phone off my desk texting her brother.
"I guess it's better than sitting here feeling sorry for myself." I said standing up and getting changed out of my clothes.
"I love driving here I swear, there's literally never any traffic here." Stephanie said stopping at a red light. "And it's even better when I'm driving your car." she said, feeling on the wheel. I laughed and looked out the window. We were in the next town over from campus and the place was so different then our home town. It was like a little town and everyone was always so friendly like people actually smile at you and say hello on the street. She pulled up behind her brother's bar and parked. I got out and looked at myself in the window. I never cared much for makeup especially on a Monday so I had on just some eye liner and some lip gloss. I had on a push-up bra with white cami cropped top over it and some skinny blue jeans and black heels. While steph decided to put on a fenty black lace lingerie top, blue jeans and strappy black heels. We walked to the door and the bouncer smiled and winked at us before letting us in.
The moment I stepped in the bar the smell of liquor hit me and I smiled. Yup, this was my happy place I thought looking around. The bar was full of people, mostly men in their late 20s and early 30s it looked like. There were some girls in here that looked to be about our age and their early 20s, oh yeah, I can vibe with this. I felt Stephanie grab my hand and walked us over to the bar as we sat in front of her brother.
"Well if it isn't my favorite sisters." he said smiling at us. I leaned over and kissed his cheeks. Kevin has always been like the best older brother I've never had. All the years I've known him he's been a great influence to me if you minus the fact that he was my carrier I started selling for him and he always made sure I had money even when I never needed it.
"What will you ladies be having tonight?"
"I'll just start with a Siesta Cocktail please." I asked while Steph ordered shots of vodka.
"What?" she asked as she caught me staring.
"Aren't you driving us back?" I asked laughing.
"Gabby honey there's really no need for all this negativity." she said as Kevin handed us our drinks before walking to serve other customers. I'm not going to lie. Three cocktails and two shots later with Stephanie and I was completely relaxed. We lost track of time as we flirted with every single man and woman that came over and tried to hit on us, it was fun and I was more than ready to dance. By now the bar had way more people and the DJ had people wanting to fuck on the dance floor.
"Hey beautiful" I turned my head and looked at the 5'6 feet tall gorgeous woman smiling at me.
"You're one to talk." I said complimenting her as my eyes took her in, all of her. She smiled and sat down.
"Can I buy you a drink?" she asked looking at my empty glass.
"Only if you dance with me afterward." I said flirting back with her.
"We have a deal."
20 minutes and two more drinks later, Katia had me carefree on the dance floor having the good time she had promised me over drinks.
"I thought you said you couldn't dance?" Katia whispered in my ear.
"I can't..." I said giggling and feeling very tipsy, the drinks took away all of my timidness. She turned me around facing her and her eyes were completely focused on me, "damn, you really are beautiful"
"Thank you." she smiled and I laughed realizing I had thought out loud. She was leading me while she placed her hands on my hips swaying side to side with me pressed against her. They started playing some reggae love songs and I was more than happy with it. I started slowly whining against her as I slowly turned around and pressed my ass against her front. Her eyes were locked on me as she placed her thumb on my back dimples. She was moving against me and I felt happy. I stood up and faced her again and she had the biggest smile on her face looking at me approvingly.
"You're not so bad yourself." I said to her laughing. I turned around and looked at the dance floor feeling like someone was staring at me. I looked but didn't see anything weird
"You wanna get out of here? I live across the street" Katia whispered in my ear, I had class at 8 tomorrow morning but I didn't seem to care about that at the moment, so I bit my lip and nodded. She leaned in and kissed me. Still moving against me, I kissed her back, tasting the liquor on her lips. They were soft, just how I liked it. I grabbed her hand and walked us back to the bar.
"I'll be back." I said to her and Stephanie as I made my way to the bathroom. As soon as I got in there it's like all the drinks were hitting me at the same time like I was a punching bag. "Fuck" I mumbled making my way to the nearest stall. Two minutes later I walked out and was so busy staring at myself in the mirror I didn't notice the pair of eyes watching me. I looked towards the door and froze. There she was. Those two almond shaped gorgeous eyes were just watching me. So I wasn't crazy. I thought to myself remembering the feeling I had on the dance floor. She looked like she had been crying.
"Mrs. Garcia..." I said walking to her.
"Gabriella." she said and turned back towards the sink washing her hands.
"Are you okay?" I said ignoring the coldness in her voice when she said my name.
"I'm fine." she said not looking at me.
"Are you sure, what's the matter?" I said genuinely worried, my hands acted as if they had a mind of their own and gently rubbed her back, she straightened up and took a step back.
"Get your hands off me Gabriella what the hell. I said I was fine." she snapped and I took a step back suddenly sobering up. I looked at her wondering if I did something.
"I was just..."
"Just fuck off."I pushed my way past her and left. I was pissed. I hated people like her; people who thought just because they were pretty they could treat others anyway they wanted. I guess she really is just a pretty face. I made my way back to the bar and grabbed Katia's hands.
"I'll be upstairs." Stephanie said, referring to her brother's apartment on top of the bar. I made my way out the bar with Katia trailing closely behind me.
