Innocent-Chapter 1
Drabbles! Sort of based off of Aria and Ezra's relationship on Pretty Little Liars. Enjoy!
Esme's POV
I slung the door open and the overpowering stench of alcohol wafted out of the bar to meet. Ah, home, I thought to myself. Snooker's, the only bar in town that didn't card.
I had been coming to this place ever since I moved to town when I was 15. Over the past 2 years, I had become a regular in this grimy, rundown, average Joe pub.
I pranced through the open door and settled on a barstool. There were 3 people inside: me, the bartender, and a blonde-haired guy propped up on a barstool a few seats away.
I glanced over at him more directly, and found myself captured in his light blue eyes. He smiled at me, and I rolled my eyes.
When he came over and sat next to me, I wasn't the least bit surprised. About when I was going to tell him to fuck off, he called the bartender over and ordered a scotch. I raised my eyebrows when he ordered another for me.
When the bartender returned to us, drinks in hand, the man still hadn't said a word to me. Usually when a guy hits on me, they strike up a conversation with me, or at least try to anyway.
I chugged the glass of foaming liquid in one round. My neighbor mimicked me, he too downing the full mug.
I flashed him a smile that very few guys have seen and held out my hand. "Esme."
He turned to face me, a grin plastered on his pale lips, and took my hand firmly. "Carlisle."
Carlisle asked for another round without looking away from me as I sexily drummed my fingers on the old fashioned bar counter and looked anywhere but him.
"So..." he prepped. I cleared my throat and batted my eyelashes, but soon realizing he had turned away.
"Where are you going to school?" he sounded rushed, like he was forcing the words out. I blinked, and tried to come up with a nearby college name.
"Well, actually, I am attending Valencia this year. That's why I needed something to calm my nerves," I gestured around us, "Just escape preparation for a second," I said flawlessly, surprised how that lie had flowed naturally. It really wasn't a full lie-I was planning on attending Valencia, just not this fall.
He hummed in approval, and quickly coming up with another question. "What are you majoring in?"
"English," I answered immediately. Carlisle's face lit up.
"That's what I'm teaching!" he said, a smooth smile slicked onto his flawless face. I grinned at him again.
We talked for a few more minutes until my eyes started wandering to the door of the unisex bathroom.
"I have to go to the bathroom. I'll be..." he cut me off as I rose from the stool.
"Can I come?" he said, and I saw regret flash in his eyes as soon as the words were out. "I'm sorry, that was too..."
It was my turn to cut him off. "Bring it on."
Carlisle smiled and took my hand as he led me into the small closet like restroom. Gently, he picked me up and pulled my legs around him. I buried my fingers deep into his blonde locks as he pushed me up against the sink.
We didn't come out for hours.
