Chapter 2
"Kurt! Where are you? I've been calling you non stop for the past hour. You should be back by now. Are you okay?" I left the message and then hung up. Kurt was suppose to be back by 8:30 and its now 9:30. He was suppose to come back here before we head to the club. I paced the length of the loft and mumbled to myself. I know i mellowed out since i moved to New York but i still will not tolerate tardiness even if it is my best friend. I was about to call him again when my phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hello Darlin! I'm sorry but work became hectic! There is so much work to do in such little time but don't worry, i am fine."
I left out a breath of relief and then spoke again, "Kurt..." before i could speak again he cut me off
"Rachel, go get ready and i'll meet you at the club."
"I'm not so sure about this anymore Kurt. I don't want to be there by myself."
"Come on Rachel, you promised me you would go. It'll be fun."
"Okay...for you though."
"Yes! Love you Rach! I must go now but i will see you there!"
When he hung up i thought about whether i actually wanted to do this or not. But then i thought back to what Kurt said and he was right. This is suppose to be about ME and it will. Its going to be MY night and i am going to make the best of it. I put my phone on the table and went to go take a shower. After i shaved and made sure to use my vanilla and strawberry shampoo and body wash i wrapped myself in a towel and walked out. I walked into my room and opened my closet. I'm not exactly skilled in dressing up myself. I had to find the perfect outfit that screamed Sexy but not Slutty. I wish Kurt was here to help me but since he is not i will do the best i can. I grabbed the dress my Daddies got me for when they were on a cruise around Europe. It was navy blue that stopped mid thigh. It clinched around the waist and had a plunging neckline. Then i moved onto makeup and hair. I let my hair out of the braids i had them in and left it with it's natural curls. I then moved to the mirror. I applied a thin coat of mascara and a little eyeliner. My makeup was natural but i wanted to stand out. I found the deep red lipstick that Santana gave me as a farewell gift. After applying that to my lips i went back to my closet and found my black pumps and slipped them on. They gave me a good 4 inches to my heights. I looked in the mirror one last time, grabbed my clutch and headed out the door. The club was only 2 blocks from the loft so i walked. Upon entering the club i could see all the bodies dancing around, there was the strong smell of sweat, cigarettes, and alcohol. I walked over to the bar and sat down. Waiting for Kurt several guys, drunk, approached me but i wasn't in the mood to talk to them. Sudden i felt someone grab my shoulders, turning around quickly ready tell whoever it is, i saw that it was Kurt.
"Whoa, calm down Rachie, It's just me."
"Kurt! You scared the crap out of me!"
He laughed then said "Sorry Rachie, now what are you doing here just sitting here, You look AMAZING. Go show it off."
"What do you suggest i do? Can we just get drunk and forget?" i sounded so unlike myself but tonight was for me.
"Rach! You did not dress up like THIS to not go and show off. Now i want you to go dance. Keep the straight and sexy and send me the rejected and gays" He winked and then walked off. I guess it was his night too. I knew he was upset about what happened with Blaine but i guess it was time for both of us to move on.
Managing to get a shot of vodka from the perverted bartender i headed to the dance floor. I looked back to look at Kurt and saw that he was texting on his phone, mischievous smile on his face. What was going on? I was about to head back when strong arms grabbed my hips and pulled me to him.
"Care to dance?" His voice was low and gravelly. He smelled like a mixture of mint and fresh cut grass. Guess it's time to put this "New Rachel" to a test by myself.
"Depending on who's asking." My voice, lowering it an octave or two
"Luke and you are?" The name made my heart skip a beat. I'm doing this.
"Rachel. You said something about a dance?" Confidence growing with every word that comes out of my mouth. I can practically feel him smirking.
"Hmm, follow me." I guided me further back into the club and i got a good look at him. He had brown hair, not too long not too short. He had ocean blue eyes and a muscular build. You can see the shape of his muscles by the tight button up shirt he was wearing and the Levi's jeans that hung on his hips. He looked to be in his 20's. He towered over me easily, seems to be about 6'3. Simply to say he was gorgeous. And he noticed me.
I turned my back to him and pushed myself against him and we danced along to the beat of the song. His rather large hands held my hips to hold me against him. I don't know how long we danced like this until things went too far. All of a sudden his hands went a little too high. He moved my hair out of the way and started to kiss my neck.
"Luke, stop." I just wanted to have fun tonight but not this kind.
"Relax, you'll enjoy it." He continued to do so. One of his large hands covered my breast and i tried to push him away but his height and strength gave him an advantage over me.
"Stop! What are you doing?!"
"Just having some fun. You'll love it." Suddenly i wished i hadn't came here in the first place. I was too scared to do anything so i just stood there. Suddenly he was ripped away from me and when i opened my eyes i saw that none other than Brody has Luke pinned up against the wall.
"Didn't you hear her say stop? You son of a bitch. If you ever touch her again i will find you and you'll be sorry. I won't go easy on you again." I was shocked. Why was he here?
"Rachel, are you okay?" All i could do was nod.
"Come on." I wrapped his arms around me and guided me back to Kurt.
"Rach! Are you okay? I saw what happened and I'm so sorry! I should have never told you to go out there by yourself!"
"Its okay Kurt, can we just go home now."
"I actually have some errands to take care of. Brody, be a dear and take Rachel home for me."
"Kurt...come on." I don't want to be alone with Brody.
"Thanks Brody, see you guys later." and with that he got up and out of his seat and rushed to the door.
"Come on Rachel, lets go." I followed him out and was about to walk back towards my loft when he pulled me a halt.
"Let me drive you home."
"I'll be fine walking. I only live 2 blocks from here."
"I'm not going to let you walk home at this time of night looking like you are. You saw what happened in the club with witnesses, imagine what will happen if you were alone."
"..Fine." I got in the car and looked out the window. The shocked is starting to wear off and the fear of what could have happened started to come alive. Tears flooded my eyes and i sniffled.
"Hey, you're alright okay? Nothing happened."
"Why are you here? Why were you at the club?"
"I went over to your apartment but you weren't there. I texted Kurt and had to practically beg for him to tell me where you were. Good thing he did."
"I had it under control."
"Yes, because THAT was under control."
"Maybe i wanted it."
"I know you Rachel. I saw the panic on your face."
"I don't need you to save me." He reached my apartment, I opened the door and stormed out. I just wanted to go home and sleep everything off. I just want to stay in bed and forget everything. I was about to unlock the door when I was turned around and pushed up against my door. I was about to scream when Brody pushed his lips against mine. I tried to push him off me but he just pushed against me harder. Eventually i gave in. His tongue made its way into my mouth and i was on cloud 9. Then images of him and Cassandra filled my head and i pushed him off.
"You shouldn't have done that Brody."
"What? You kissed me back."
"I know. You made this so much harder for me now. Tonight...tonight was suppose to be for me. I was suppose to find someone that will choose me and to move on. You can't do this to me. "
"Rachel, listen to me." He lifted my chin so i would look into his eyes. "I'm sorry for what i did and i wish i could take it back but i know that i can't but give me a chance. Please. I am crazy about you and i can't stop thinking about you and i know you can't stop thinking about me either. That kiss was amazing and you can't deny it. Give me a chance Rachel...give me a chance to show you that i could be the one."
"Brody..."
