Bella was mindlessly chewing on a piece of gum while staring out of the window. She doesn't like this chair, she thought to herself. It didn't rotate and as easily as the previous one.
She had been procrastinating finishing up some tasks and projects for an hour now. Daydreaming in her office about Alice while appreciating the magnificence of the Seattle skyline in front of her. Bella had been a hopeless romantic since she could remember. Always wondering if soul mates really exist, and if so, how hers was. If her soulmate was living on the other side of the world, or in the same neighbourhood. If they appreciated the smell of the cold, wet rain like she did. If they preferred black coffee over a frappuccino, or if they even drank coffee at all.
The door swung open, interrupting Bella as she was wondering how Alice takes her coffee.
It was Jacob, Bella's colleague and partner in crime.
''Bella bear, I really need the finished result for the new JNL logo. Forward it to me as soon as you can okay?''
''Yes just let me save and format the end product, and it will be on its way.''
Silence.
''Bella?''
''Jake?''
''Honey you look out if it. We need to go out tonight!''
''Jaaaaaaakeeeeeeeeee!'' She whined.
''Shush it Bella, you need to get laid. You're stiffer than Alyssa Milano's nipples through the entire second season of Charmed.''
''You're the only one complaining, that was her best season throughout the entire show.''
''Anyway, I'll message you the place and time later! And don't forget the logo!'' He blew a kiss as her while she scrunched her face.
She didn't really mind going out, in fact, she liked it most times. She just wasn't in the mood on this particular day, her mind kept drifting to a certain angel faced girl that she didn't have a chance with.
Maybe it's not a bad idea after all, she thought. This could be a good opportunity to test the waters, to find out if she was attracted to the opposite sex.
21:24
Bella was ready. She put extra effort in her appearance, spritzed on her favourite perfume and picked out her go-to outfit. She even went for the extra mile and did smokey eyes. I look fucking hot, she thought to herself.
Jacob would pick her up in 6 minutes. Perfect, still got enough time for a quick smoke. So she grabbed her stuff and went out of the door.
22:32
''It's actually quite close to your apartment, so we can just walk there.''
''What's it called? I must've heard of it before then.'' Bella asked.
Jacob reached out for Bella's lighter and lit a cigarette before answering.
''Loud.'' He exhaled while looking out for cars before they crossed the road.
''That new place for lesbians? Is this your way of hinting something?'' She teased. Bella was used to going to gay bars and parties Jacob dragged her to. She didn't mind. In fact, they were hella fun. What surprised her was the fact that this place was mostly aimed for lesbians.
''Don't try to deny it Bells, let your inner unicorn free. You might not be so sexually frustrated anymore. God knows I wasn't after I let myself free. There was this one guy named Brad and let me tell you he, did things with his tongue I never ima-''
''Aghhhh please, I might have to wash my brain with bleach if you go on.''
Jacob snorted and shook his head as he reminisced his glorious one night stand.
They soon came to a halt, in front of a giant door with a neon light banner that read loud. They could already hear the booming eighties music and smell the alcohol and sweat people were reeking in the air.
''I love it already.'' Bella deadpanned.
She took Jacob by the hand and prepared herself for getting smashed as they walked past the body guard and walked inside.
Jacob had already invited a chunk of their group of friends, who they spotted chatting at the bar.
They joined them and Bella ordered two beers.
23:43
Bella was feeling buzzed, and most of her friends had made their way toward the dance floor already. Except for Angela, Riley and Eric.
They were waiting until the alcohol kicked in enough for them to let loose.
''So Bella seen any- anyone you like?'' Angela slightly slurred.
''You wouldn't remember tomorrow even if I told you.'' Bella slightly yelled back.
''Whatever, I'm gonna go burn all these liquid calories.'' She turned to Riley and Eric who were busy swapping spit, and turned right back to Bella. She gave Bella a pleading look that said it all and Bella was already standing up.
''LEGGOOO!'' Angela exclaimed as she fist pumped towards the dance floor.
00:13
As she was dancing, she was scanning the crowd. A lot of diverse, alternative people. She thought to herself.
She spotted Jacob, showcasing his extravagant moves and started dancing her way over.
As she was making her way over, she bumped with a short girl. Bella caught a mob of short hair and froze in shock. Then it was gone. She frantically looked around and turned her head in the directions the girl could be before she recognised the hair again. She was dancing a few feet away now, and Bella pushed through the crowd to get closer. Could it be?
At that moment the head turned around and they locked eyes.
Bella felt like crying, it wasn't Alice.
00:18
She felt mopey now, so she was craving a cigarette.
She turned around and pushed through the crowd towards the exit.
She welcomed the cold fresh air as she leaned against the wall. She felt stupid for thinking it could be Alice. What are the chanced of them being in the same room again, so soon after crossing paths?
She put a cigarette between her lips as she was searching her pockets for a lighter.
Damn it Jacob, she thought to herself.
All of a sudden there was a small hand with black painted nails, and lighter in front of her face. She leaned in, lit her cigarette and inhaled before turning towards the person whom the hand belonged to.
Alice.
''Fancy seeing you here.'' She smirked while bringing her own cigarette towards her lips.
Bella's eyes widened in shock and then trailed down to Alice's pink, wet lips as they exhaled smoke.
She quickly collected her cool before drooling all over her clothes.
''Alice! Out of all the places in Seattle... What are the odds.'' Bella shook her head as she smiled. She also took the liberty to quickly check out Alice. She was wearing a short black dress with spaghetti straps. Isn't she cold? Bella asked herself. Alice's body, chest to be specific, gave away the answer before Bella could even ask. Bella's throat got dry as she quickly moved her eyes back to her angelic face.
Alice had become a little shy under Bella's wondering eyes, and was biting her lower lip.
Neither of them spoke for a moment, just taking in the electrical chemistry between them.
Bella was the first to break the silence.
''I was trying to take my mind off of you. That's why I came here tonight, along with the fact that my friend Jacob wouldn't take no for an answer. What's your excuse?''
''I was hoping you would be here tonight, that's why I came.''
''Wait, how did you-?''
''I just had a feeling, don't ask.'' She looked a bit embarrassed. She was still biting her lip.
Bella took a step forwards and hesitantly reached out to trace Alice's bottom lip with her thumb causing her to let go.
''Wanna go inside and dance with me?''
A/N: I know it's short ahhaha but yeah, bear with me as I ease myself into this whole writing and updating thing. There is nothing worse than a fanfiction being left off uncompleted! So I will definitely finish it. I'm sorry if there are any grammar or spelling mistakes, English is not my first language (also not my second). But It's also nearly 3 am as I'm writing this. I can only seem to write at night, so that's why. I would appreciate reviews, and I promise the next update will be a bit longer. Cheeeers!
