It was a spur of the moment.
I recall I was standing at the bar waiting for our drinks and she was dancing on the floor waiting for me to return. When a lad got too clingy she sought my help.
Flashback:
I lean against the counter and wait and half-watch her amused.
This guy over there really is a stubborn one. As far as I can tell from the distance she just told him for the third time now, that she isn't interested, but he just does not seem to get the message.
Our eyes meet and I see that she has this pleading look on her face. My best friend mouths a "help me" and I just giggle and shrug my shoulders like I don't know what to do.
Suddenly there is another look in her eyes. A look of determination. Oh damn, she's got something on her mind. I don't know why but the look she gives me sends a shiver down my spine.
She turns again to the lad while walking a few steps into my direction
"Listen mate, I'm sorry, but you don't understand me. I'm not interested in you, I'm already taken. My girlfriend is over there" she points at me. I giggle to myself. Poor guy. He eyes her suspiciously as if he doesn't believe her a single word. Sensing this Sian walks directly towards me and mutters
"Play along, Soph" as she suddenly crashes her body into me and places her delicate lips on mine.
Almost instantly I respond to the kiss, but grab the counter behind me left and right on my sides for halt due to my astonishment. She grabs me by the neck.
We kiss passionately and soon our tongues battle for dominance. It heats up and Sian has to stop herself from moaning and breaks the kiss.
I stare at her confused and see the same expression in her eyes. She turns to look at the lad, who is gone.
"Thanks Soph. I…" But she can't continue because I silence her with a fierce kiss, suddenly feeling the need to taste her lips again. As soon as I started the kiss I ended it again and ran out of the club.
I ran away. Back to my flat. Away from Sian.
Present - Sophie POV:
Now it is two days later and I'm still deeply confused about everything that has happened that night.
It felt damn right to kiss her, but I don't know where this is coming from. She is my best friend after all. And I'm straight. At least that's what I told myself for the last two days.
I still ignore her text messages and all of her calls. I just need to think. Grabbing my Blackberry I see 3 new messages and 2 calls from her.
Why can't she just leave me alone to my thoughts?
I switch it off.
Walking upstairs towards my bedroom I stop in front of a picture. She smiles one of her amazing smiles while grabbing me around the neck and pressing her cheek against mine. My expression is similar. I love that picture. It always reminds me of our good times and cheers me up whenever I feel down. I grab it and go straight into my bedroom. I place my huge gym bag on my bed and put in my grey hoodie, my music and two cereal bars, a bottle of water, two cans of Dr Pepper and my sunglasses. Taking another glance at the picture I decide to also take it with me and throw it in the bag.
There is a loud BEEP BEEP BEEP and immediately my answering machine starts on.
No, I can't hear her voice. Not now, I need to leave.
I grab the gym bag, my car keys and run outside. Getting into my Beetle I throw my switched off Blackberry and my gym bag in, plug in my music, turn it loud and start to drive…
Sian POV:
Damn, where is she? She has not answered a single one of my attempts to contact her. I try again.
Ha, she switched off her Blackberry now. Nice, Webster!
I am starting to get worried. We've never had this little contact in two days. We always talked every day, even if we couldn't see each other, at least we texted or talked on the phone.
Her behavior is not normal anymore.
I believe this is all about the kiss we've shared in the club.
I'm also confused about it, about everything recently, but her behavior, the fact that she is ignoring me, I can't bear it…
I just need to find her. See her. Talk to her. Make sure she's alright.
I grab my handbag and run out the door to drive to her place.
