Encounter
What I want is not normal, at least in modern society. And most often than not I won't voice my wants, desires, and dreams without receiving judgmental looks and opinions. A woman is expected to aspire to be at the top of everything, in society, family, work, friendships, simple desires aren't allowed for the everyday girls that only want to be taken care of. To have a man take all the worries and decisions off my shoulders, for as long as I can remember my yearning to follow authority, from my father to my boss, but I've never found anyone I could be my true self. At the age of 22, I know what I want, but I also know what is expected of me as a woman, daughter, and friend.
I thought that going away to college and finally becoming financially independent, would help me find my footing and acceptance but so far no luck. Don't get me wrong, I am not some shy, meek person. I am very outgoing, I like spending time with my friends, but at some point, a person wants more, a bigger life meaning that fulfills our soul. This is why now I found myself getting ready to go out and party the night out. Wearing a red faux leather snake set, with Red Leather Cuffs alongside a choker and red stilettos. I was feeling ready to dance till I blistered my feet.
I got to admit that most of my closet consists of a matching set of faux leathers and fur. Looking over my friends and seeing they were wearing a different version of a little "black" dress, predictable. Don't get me wrong they looked gorgeous, but sometimes I wished they would be more daring and less predictable. My little group of friends consists of Jessica, Sophia, and Elsie. Each one of them was different, we went to college together and now we rent a four-bedroom house. As close as we might be I thank the universe we do not work together, they sometimes can be over-enthusiastic and very noisy. I am currently working at Fletcher & Fletcher Law Office as a receptionist, while I save up for law school.
Jessica started giving the usual pre-party pep talk "Tonight we'll party like there's no tomorrow, we'll drink like we are so parched from spending an eternity in the desert. But most importantly we'll dance all night long! Let us go ladies."I trail after them just listen to their meaningless conversation, as I go back to my meaningless life monologue. I am not complaining about how miserable life is and how I had an awful childhood that I can't move on; I had a good childhood, with some reservations and complications; which are normal in a very family. But I'd moved on and built a nice life. My parents were nice to me, way more than they were to each other, we weren't rich by any means but I always had everything I needed. But everyone gets to a point that no matter how good your life is, you just want to share those moments with a special someone. A person that doesn't make you feel out of place and instead of judging will add to your life experience.
Arriving at the nightclub, we paid for parking and made our way to the entrance. Once inside everything was so loud that it made it almost impossible to make conversation. The night club layout was so convenient, just like every night club it has the dance floor right in the middle while surrendering my high table. "This place looks incredible!" I could barely hear Sophia over the loud music, but she was right. The dance floor was riddled with bodies, and that music was not unpleasant, I couldn't tell you to this day what song was playing but it sure sounded like something I would like to get loose with. The Club was relatively new, it has only been open for a few months but it was extremely popular among college students. The high beam lights cast a colorful shadow over everyone's faces that made them more appealing if you weren't looking hard enough.
I started to look around when I felt a shiver go up to my spine. "Bella, are you paying attention?" Startled, I looked toward Jessica "what?"She was giving a weird look, while the others tried to hide their smiles."I said do you mind going to get us some drinks while we go look for a table?" It had taken a second before my mind registered the words "Sorry, yeah no problem just text what you want and let me know where we are sitting." Walking away from them I made my way through people towards the bar, I would never understand why people like to stand so close together.
Getting to the bar, it took me a few minutes to get the bartender's attention. He was a lean tall man, his jaw looked like it could sharpen a knife. So SEXY! "It will probably take an eternity for him to get your drinks." A chill went through my whole body again when I heard the voice coming from my right. He was standing right next to me, looking like a Viking. He was a very tall, muscular man, with high cheekbones, and his hair was messy and I just wanted to run my hand through it. "yeah, it will probably take some time till he has my drinks ready." Don't lose it. "I'm Edward, and what would your name be?" Edward, I liked that name. It felt old and perfect for someone like him "My name, hmm, Bella. Nice to meet you" My body was feeling a way that I couldn't describe, up to the point I had only had one boyfriend and it didn't last long. Pressure from the outside world came crashing down on us while I dated, and my stupid fear of messing everything up with my abnormal desire always kept me from exploring the dating pool. Stupid. So experience-wise let's say that I am not up to his level. Or so I suspected, but looking at him in all his glory in front of me was making my body feel funny and ways I have never felt before and wanting to bend at his will. He was wearing a button-down white shirt with some plain black dress pants, probably coming from work. He might even work at the community college not far from the club, he might even be a pervert trying to get with a student. Disgusting, but so hot. His body looked muscular, strong, virile, so strong that he could pick me up and fuck me against the wall, dresser, up in the air. Stop, focus on him. He was looking extensively at me, and it made my lower region quiver, ahh concentrated on what he was saying. "...I could buy you a drink. "Drink? Ooh, I am sorry, but I am here with some friends. I want to stay here and forget them."wait... No, I mean Yes I would love to, but I don't want to leave my friends. " He was looking down at me with a smirk on his face, making fun of me for my stupid response. Could I be any more desperate?
I couldn't read his stupid expression, did he actua;ly like me? Was this some type of dare? Find the most desperate girl and the club and get her to give you head at the back of the club? Well, I might look and be horny and a little lonely but I was not stupid to fall for that. Yes you are. Shut up. " Why don't you give me your phone number, and I call you when your friends are not around?" He was probably being nice, trying to make it look like he was going to call and get back at me for rejecting him. A lot of guys do that, get their pride wounded when they hear "no" from a girl they sure thought was easy. Sadness went all over me, he was never going to call. But I gave him my phone number nonetheless, whether he called or not I was not going to be rude and deny him my number. Okay, fine I was hoping he would call. A girl can dream. "Talk to you soon, Edward." Getting my drinks I made my way back to my friends while feeling his eyes burning on my back.
