Dancing With A Stranger (GH Series Book 3)

Let's Dance The Night Away

Ollie

Dancing with Josie is incredible, but I know Carmen is watching me whilst chatting to some other women. Knowing that she was watching me was driving me insane and Josie knew that I was looking for a distraction, I've always been honest with her. But I could see the lust in Carmen's eyes and when our eyes connected, she put down her drink and walked towards me on the dance floor. As she reached me, Josie whispered good luck in my ear and left me dancing with Carmen standing in front of me. "Remember what I said?" I looked at her and raised my eyebrows. "Don't slump your shoulders..."

"Oh yeah, so you did."

"Especially if you are dancing with strangers. It will make you look more...confident." Then my favourite little mix song came on, 'think about us.' I gasped as Carmen pulled me closer to her and we started dancing along to the song and I realised why Carmen gave me advice on my dance moves, she is a pretty damn good dancer herself.

"You...you are a good dancer as well." She let out the cutest laugh and her hands fell on my hips and we swayed together, bodies getting even closer.

"Thank you. I trained until I joined the army."

"Well, you are doing well."

"Thank you." I could feel my mouth go dry again and I licked my lips and danced away. But Carmen kept edging closer. Moving her hand from my hip to my lower back, she pulled me against her, and our eyes locked but our bodies will still dancing. "Olivia?" I looked into her gorgeous blue eyes. "I was gonna ask you a question, but it seems inappropriate now." Carmen lets me go and starts to back off. I grabbed her hand and pulled her back to face me.

"Ask away."

"I..."

"Come on, you don't seem the shy type." She laughed and looked at me.

"I'm not, normally, but you have this weird effect on me."

"What do you mean?" I pulled her towards the balcony that separates the bar and the dancefloor and placed my back against it, looking at her, waiting on an explanation.

"It means..." I realised I was trapped. Carmen had placed her hands on the balcony at either side of me, so if I wanted to run from whatever the heck this is, I couldn't. "I think I'm better just showing you."

"Showing me?" Next thing I knew, Carmen's lips softly grazed against mine with a little uncertainty and as she pulled away, I looked into her piercing eyes. "I think, no, I know you can do better than that." That got a smile out of Carmen and she brought her body closer to mine.

"I can. I just didn't want to..." I never gave her a chance to finish that sentence. I placed my lips hard against hers, feeling a vibration of her moan against my lips. Her hands landed on my hips, mine snaked around her neck pulling her against me and we had the most amazing kiss, ever.

"Wow."

"You don't say." We both laughed.

"I was hoping you would kiss me but wasn't sure if you would or not.

"I wanted to. Ever since, well the gym. Watching you dance got the butterflies going and then appearing in this dress, jeez Olivia, you have no idea how hot you are." I blushed. I've never had anyone say that to me.

"I'm not good with compliments Carmen but thank you."

"I mean every word, not just because I'm really attracted to you." I raised my eyebrows and smiled.

"The feeling is mutual." Carmen's smile was like someone who had won the jackpot in the lottery. "Uh huh...but I need to go." Her smile soon vanished. "Not like that Carmen, I need to go to the toilet. I'm bursting for a pee." That adorable laugh made me warm inside.
