ok so this is just going to be a long one shot :P its only going to have about three parts... no wait four but the last is quite short. anyway please read, enjoy and review.
I quickly pushed my way through the thick crowd making a beeline for the bar. I could feel sweat starting to ooze from my pores sticking my clothes to me. My lungs felt heavy and my eyes were stinging slightly from the smoke.
I had never really liked clubs but I figured it was a good place to not think about the things that I couldn't stop thinking about, the things that I knew if I continued to think about would only provoke another round of tears.
It had been a good idea to come here ; what with the people everywhere and the ground rattling booming of the techno music the massive speakers were blasting it was hard to keep a train of thought.
I climbed up onto one of the tall black stools that bordered the bar and waved the barman over.
"What can I get you beautiful?" He asked walking over and leaning on the bar slightly.
I ran my hand through my hair, my wedding ring glinted in the flashing lights. "Ummm..." It was quite sad; I was twenty and was so inexperienced with alcohol. I had never really had that rebellious teenage stage of getting completely drunk at parties every other weekend. Then when I was seventeen I met Edward and I didn't need anything else, plus he was completely against alcohol.
"Surprise me," I yelled trying to be heard over the sudden frantic drum beats.
He smiled, nodded and turned away.
I wasn't sure if this was a smart thing to say but strangely I found myself trusting this handsome stranger.
I turned around and watched the people pressed so close together, jumping up and down with their arms in the air, not caring that they were completely out of time with the music or that they were grinding their bodies against complete strangers, their own sweat and everyone else's soaking their clothes and sticking their hair to their necks and faces.
It looked kid of fun, so carefree. Maybe I would join them later, after a couple of drinks.
"There you go." I turned back as the barman sat a light pink drink in a tall glass in front of me.
I smiled in thanks and picked it up, absently sniffing it. It smelt good, like strawberries, slightly sweet. I raised it to my lips taking a hesitant sip then a few more. It was good! Not that much alcohol (that I could taste).
I drank it quickly and asked for another.
"Bella?" Someone shouted.
I turned my head to find a young dark haired man perched on the stool to my left.
"Oh hey it is you." He leaned forward to hug me. "What are you doing here?"
This was James, Edward's wild best friend who I had only just seen a couple of days ago even though he was making it look like it had been years.
"Hey, James." I hugged him back. He smelt like sweat, smoke and very strongly of alcohol. "I'm jut having some alone time." I didn't really feel like telling him anything else.
"Alone?" He glanced around the crowded club raising an eyebrow then turned back to me understanding dawning on his face. "Oh. Alone... away from..." he nodded as though everything suddenly made sense "You two have a fight?"
I nodded and took a sip from my now full glass. "Umm... I just need to use the bathroom... I'll be right back."
He nodded and I stood up.
I wasn't long but as I returned I half expected him to be gone. Instead I found him in the exact same spot I'd left him only now he was slowly sipping a beer. He smiled as I sat back down and picked my drink up.
"Did I ever tell you how hot you are?" I yelled in his ear.
"I think you've had a bit much to drink, Bella!" He shouted back, a smirk playing across his lips. "And no you hadn't. But thank you." He grinned.
Someone bumped into me and I was propelled forward into James. Without knowing how my lips were on his.
"Whoa, Bella," he laughed pulling back as the music went quiet for a few moments before launching into a new song. "Don't forget your married hon."
"Pfft!" I threw my head back and arms out laughing as I wacked someone in the head. The sudden movement made the room spin and my head throb. I stumbled slightly, suddenly unsure of which way was up and which was down.
My feet disappeared from underneath me and I felt myself falling as the world went black again.
ok let me know what you think. next part shouldn't be far away.
REVIEWS MAKE ME SMILE! :) x
