Hey ^^ I was kinda bored so I decided to write this, sorry if it's bad .
I sighed and sipped my drink waiting for this evening to be over. God, I hated kate right now.
I was on vacation with her in Portland, and tonight was a night I hadn't particularly been looking forward to. But she insisted we check out at least one nightclub while we were here, which surprised me because kate was the type of person who would rather stay home than go out.
After arguing for what seemed like an hour, I finally agreed to go with her. In my defense, it was really hard to say no to her. Her parents didn't know we were here, of course. Nor mine. We convinced them that we joined a new reading book, and they oddly believed us.
I'm starting to wish we really did join a reading group.
What am I doing here again? Oh right, ugh.
Drunk. Everyone was drunk. Or high. Probably both.
Sighing for the hundredth time this past hour, I felt a presence behind me. Here we go again. I rolled my eyes and turned around to see a guy around my age smirking down at me.
"Hey I'm James and you're..."
"Gorgeous? Yeah I've heard this shitty pick up line before, now can you please leave me alone?"
"Oooo feisty" he said, smiling at me, "Wanna dance?"
"Okay, I was trying to be nice. But that didn't work. What I was trying to say was Fuck off."
"Ouch I was just trying to be friendly." Friendly? My ass.
"I'm gay." I said, annoyed.
"Oh"
"Yeah, can you please go now?" He sighed and finally walked away.
I know that I was being mean, but I just didn't want to deal with this bullshit. "Nice" Someone chuckled from behind me. Well that was fast.
"Ugh what again?" I said, I swear to god Kate is going to pay for this. It's the fifth guy that tried to hit on me toni... Holy shit, it's definitely not a guy this time. God she's beautiful. I'm starring, aren't I? Shit. Looking down, I mumbled "Sorry" Oh my god.
She laughed quitely and said "It's fine, I'm chloe." She held out her hand. "And you are?"
Screwed.
"I'm um..." Why am I freaking out? Breath Max, breath. "Max?" Oh god, that sounded more like a question. Her hand was still between us.
"You have a germ thing?" She said raising her eyebrows.
"Huh? I what? No" Fuck, what's wrong with me?
"You're sick?"
"Um no" Just shake her hand dammit.
"Good." She took my drink from my hand and put it in hers. Shocked, I looked up at her blue eyes. Shit, I shouldn't have done that. And I'm staring again. Ugh.
She shook my hand for a good minute and dropped it. "See? That wasn't so hard, was it?" Well it kind of was.
It wasn't that I didn't want to shake her hand, it was just that I was freaking the fuck out. And I didn't know why, which made things ten times better. Please note my sarcasm.
Her eyes were so damn beautiful, god. Her hair was blue, and she had lots of tattoos. And her smile. Well her smile would probably haunt me for the rest of my life.
"So, we go from staring at me, to refusing to shake my hand, and then staring at me again?" She asked chuckling.
"Shit" I said, embarrassed "I'm sorry, I just had a long day and I don't know" I mumbled, picking up my drink again.
"Well Max, why are you here? I don't wanna be rude but you kind of seem out of place."
"I uh" I closed my eyes, what the heck is wrong with me? "My friend Kate dragged me here, I was honestly just waiting for the night to be over." I managed a small smile and added "As you can see, I'm not really into partying."
"I noticed." she said, returning my smile "you're gay?"
I nearly chocked on my drink, did she hear me talk to that guy? Yes dumbass, how would she know otherwise? "Yeah, you were spying on me?"
"You could say that,"
"I'm um usually not that mean he was just..."
"a douchebag? I know. I saw him, he was hella checking you out." Hella? Haven't heard that word in a while.
I saw Kate walking toward us with a smirk on her face. She saw me looking and winked at me. "My friend is coming, she's probably drunk so don't take anything she says seriously" I said nervously.
"Ah it's fine"
"Max oh my god, I just gave my number to that guy over there.." she pointed to a guy who was dancing and giggled "and he asked me on a date"
"Kate we should go, you're obviously drunk. You need to sleep, you'll feel like hell tomorrow."
"But maxxx you're no fun, oooo who's your new friend?" she asked, still giggling.
"I'm Chloe, I was just talking to max. She looked hella bored. But she's right, you should go and sleep a little."
"Ooooo I love this song" she said, dancing. Well I'll just drag her out of here then.
I turned to look at Chloe and said "I um... w-we have to go" I stammerd like an idiot, internally face palming.
Real smooth Caulfield.
"Can I um have your number?" oh my god, did I just said that? I did. Shit, I'm an idiot. She probably thinks that I'm just a weirdo and that...
"Of course, gimme your phone." She said, laughing at how uncomfortable I probably looked. I gave it to her and she added it. Handing back, she walked closer to me. Holy shit, I'm probably going to die here. She was so close, oh my god.
"Goodnight max" she said quietly, kissed my cheek and walked away.
What the hell just happened?
"Ooooo Max is in loveeee" Kate giggled.
"Shut up" I said, still shocked and dragged her out of here.
So what did you guys think? ^^
