A Fractured Lover (Student/Teacher)

Chapter 4

After another round of shots for all four of us, we finally managed to all cram into one cab.

The cab ride was filled with laughter and an excited energy. So, when we finally pulled up to the club 25 minutes later, the alcohol from our pre-gaming had taken a slight effect and we were all feeling pretty damn good.

The Raven was apparently the place to be on a Friday night as Ben, Mia, Rach and I made our way up to the entrance and we could feel the base of the beat vibrating through the building and saw the masses of people buzzing around inside of the propped open door.

After checking all of our I.D's, the bouncer sent us three girls a crooked smile and without question, un-clicked the velvet rope and nodded us our go ahead and we made our way into the club.

We were instantly engulfed in hundreds of bodies shoving and grinding up against each other. A popular, fast paced song was blasting through the speakers. I felt my body start to move to the beat, my earlier excitement had returned full force.

"This place is the shit! I've already spotted at least three possible contenders to be my take home toy for the night." Rachel winked at us and ordered all three of us some more shots.

We kicked back our shots and I ordered myself a Strawberry Tequila Sour to sip on as the night went on.

The night progressed and Rachel was off somewhere in the crowd with two random guys that she met at the bar. Ben and Mia were dancing off to the side, looking every bit like the adorable couple that they should be. The day that they finally admit their feelings for one another, will be the day I give birth to a baby goat.

I was dancing by myself to a remix of some Katy Perry song when I felt a presence behind me. Curious, I spun in the direction of the stranger and was met with quite a handsome face. My demeanor changed and my sultry side started to make her way out.

"I couldn't help notice that you were dancing alone, and by the looks of you," He looked me up and down. "That wasn't going to be the case for much longer so I had to swoop in and make my move before anyone else got up the courage to talk to you."

The handsome stranger stared at me, waiting for my answer. While he waited I did my own inspection. He wasn't a model or anything but he was definitely easy on the eyes. Black short hair, about 5'10, green eyes. My eyes swept back up to greet his.

"Well, aren't you are charmer?" I smiled up at him teasingly.

The stranger puffed his chest out in mock confidence. "Well, I have been told that I can charm the pants off any woman."

A small laugh left my lips. "Well I'm not so sure about that." I grabbed his clammy hand in mine and drew him closer into my body, only a few inches worth of space left.

"But let's see how well you can dance."

I began to sway my hips to the music, bringing my hand not occupying my drink up his chest, sliding upwards to rest on his neck; which was kind of sweaty at this point. Gross.

I disregarded his sweat glands and concentrated on the music. The man in front of my finally snapped back to reality and grabbed my hips roughly, bringing my body flush against his. He wasn't a bad dancer by any means. We danced for the rest of that song, bodies rubbing up against each other's and my hormones were starting to take notice.

"What's your name?" The stranger breathed down my neck, sending armies of goosebumps to cover my shoulders.

"Now that's no fun," I teased, bringing my drink up to my lips, only to receive a saddening dry sucking sound. I pouted at my drink and looked up at my dance partner.
