Philophobia

The truth is...

I walked towards the bar tired of dancing, I spun around to see how Jas was doing and it seemed as if she already had a new dance partner I internally cheered her on. I took a seat at the bar and ordered a water...even though I craved a martini right now I mean come on these laws suck I was 18 for Gods sake. Someone sat in the seat beside me and I eyed him warily. He was good looking his black hair cut short but long enough that you could run your fingers through them and eyes black but in this lighting I could see the flecks of gold inside them his skin was fair and his lips we a pale pink and held a cocky smirk.

"You like what you see" he replied and sipped his drink I was rendered speechless I didn't think he saw me I regain my composure and smiled at him challengingly

"Actually I do so how about you buy me a drink and we can talk about it" I said being straight forward

He chuckled and the sound made my insides warm.

"Straight forward I like that" he replied smiling over the rim of his glass "ok I'll bite what do you want to drink"

I smiled secretly. "I'll have whatever your having"

"Darling this is to strong for you" he said raising a eyebrow at me and the r rolled when he said darling and I wanted to melt right then and there

"Only one way to find out"

He called the bartender over and ordered a whiskey on the rocks the bartender gave me a once over before handing me the drink I sipped on it the liquid tingling my throat as it went down. I smiled at the attractive stranger.

"My names Rose" I said trying to be heard over the music

"I'm Evan" he replied flashing me his pearly whites and taking my hand in his kissing my wrist before letting it fall I was stunned and he winked at me playfully

"Your bold" I stated

"No I just know what I want and proceed to go after it" he said but the words where lost as I looked into his eyes I scooted closer to him my hand brushing his leg

"And what do you want" I said cocking my head slightly to the side and a small smile on my lips

He chuckled "don't play coy"

"Who says I'm playing"

"The look in your eyes when you speak gives you away love"

I downed the rest of the drink. "Guess you can hold your liquor" he continued smiling at me

"Told you now let's dance" I said tugging his arm he lead me to the dance floor and we found a spot in the middle he placed his hands on my hips and pressed my back to him then we moved to the music perfectly in sync with each other.

I laughed at Dimitri as he did some goofy dance move.

"You should laugh and smile more often it suits you" he said suddenly causing me to blush

"Flattering will get you no where Romeo" I replied pushing him lightly

Dimitri grabbed my wrist and pulled me closer so that we were chest to chest he lowered his head down to me ear lips brushing the skin causing a shiver to go down my spine involuntarily.

"I thought we were going to dance" he said his accent layering on thick when he said dance oh god kill me now I swear I wouldn't survive the night if he kept this up.

"We are but first you owe me a drink" I whispered against his ear and walked away I heard him laugh the sound trailing after me

I sat at the bar twisting the seat so it went in circles, Dimitri looked at me amusement clear in his eyes and voice when he spoke.
