Sydneys POV
Adrian gave me a surprised look but nodded.
"Okay than, your wish is my command" he said with a smile at me.
He walked around the bar to order our drinks and I watched a couple of girls gushing about him.
I frowned and turned to Katie.
"Katie" I than said giving her a serious look.
"What?" she said looking at me innocently.
"Could you be a little more discrete?" I asked.
"What did I do?" she asked confused.
"Never mind. Just please stop talking about how cute he is when he´s here" I said.
She smiled "God, he is so much better looking than I´d thought he would be" she said.
"I know" I said dreamy, watching him order our drinks.
Than I saw a girl practically throwing her boobs in his face and putting her hand on his behind.
I gasped, but he shoved her hand away, turned around and walked back to us.
Katie giggled "Don´t worry Sydney" she said "did you see the girl? He didn´t even look at her" she went on.
She was right. Maybe he really was interested in me after all.
Than Adrian handed us our drinks and I realized, that he brought a glass of water for himself.
"You don´t drink?" I asked surprised. I really hadn´t expected that.
"Actually I do" he said "but I promised someone to cut it down a little" he said.
"Ok" I said feeling like an alcoholic.
"To tonight" Katie interrupted the silence between us putting her glass in the middle of our little circle.
"To tonight" Adrian said putting his glass next to hers, looking at me.
"To tonight" I said as well and we clinked glasses.
I took a sip of the drink and felt the sudden urge to spit it back into my glass. Of course I wasn´t going to do that.
No, I really didn´t get drinking. It just didn´t taste good.
"So thanks for the drink" Katie said smiling at Adrian "I leave you two alone now. Besides there is someone waiting for me" she said with a coy smile and a singing voice.
I chuckled. I really did like her. Even though she just had embarrassed me in front of Adrian, well in her defense unaware of doing so, she made me laugh.
"Later" she said and turned around. I watched her dance away and I laughed.
"I like her" Adrian said.
I turned back around to face him.
"Yes, she´s something" I said with a smile.
"So, how is the Cosmo?" Adrian asked.
"The Cosmo?" I asked.
He pointed at my glass "Your drink" he said with a smile.
"Oh the drink. Ok I guess" I said. It was a lie.
He smiled "Do you want something else?" he asked.
I shook my head "No, it´s fine...but thanks".
Adrians POV
Well that was something new. Sydney drinking.
I wondered if she really did think, that the drink was ok, or if she just didn´t want to admit that she hated it.
"So you want to dance?" I asked.
"Dancing? Me?" she asked.
I chuckled "You can´t be that bad at it" I said.
"Well, you´re not finding out tonight" she said with a smile, taking another sip of her drink.
"We´ll see about that" I said watching her take another sip.
We kept on talking about college and New York, when Katie came back with two guys.
I chuckled when I saw her. She reminded me of myself. Well before I got to know Sydney.
Katie introduced us to Marco and Steve, who both couldn´t take their eyes of her.
"So that´s Marco and Steve, Marco and Steve this is Adrian and Sydney Sage" she said.
"I love that your first and your last name begins with the same letter" Katie said with a smile at Sydney.
Sydney looked at me with a smile and I smiled back.
Yes, Katie must have had a couple more drinks with the guys.
"Sydney, your glass is empty" Katie said aghast a couple minutes later.
She turned to Marco "Marco, Sydney and I need new drinks" she said and he immediately went to get new ones.
"Oh no, Katie, I´m ok" Sydney said but Katie shook her head.
"Sydney, you have to loosen up a bit" she said in a low voice to her "have another drink and than we´re going dancing" she said with a smile.
"Dancing sounds good to me" I said with a coy smile at Sydney.
She looked like she would stick her tongue out at me any second.
Sydneys POV
"You really want to see me dance, don´t you?" I asked suppressing the urge to stick my tongue out at him.
"In fact I do Sydney" he said giving me an mischievous look, that made me a little dizzy for a second.
On second thought, it might have been the glass of Cosmopolitan as well.
Marco came back with two glasses filled with a golden liquid and handed me one of it.
Katie and I jolted and I took a sip.
It tasted like Red Bull with Alcohol. The taste of Red Bull was more present than the taste of alcohol and I found it much easier to drink than the Cosmopolitan.
I finished my drink half an hour later. The more I drank of it, the better it tasted and I could feel the effect of the alcohol now. It made me more relaxed and to my absolute surprise I kind of stopped thinking about everything so much.
"Let´s go dancing" Katie said grabbing my hand.
Feeling bold I looked at Adrian "Yes, we really should go dancing" I said giving him a smile.
When I got up I stumbled a little but Katies hand supported me and I didn´t fall.
We got on the dance floor and Adrian, Marco and Steve followed us.
The music was loud and I could feel the bass in my stomach.
Katie grabbed my hand and began to dance.
A soupcon of panic rolled over me. I´d never danced to this kind of music before.
I watched Katie roll her hips and throw her hands in the air.
I could do that I thought to myself and began to do the same. I listened to the beat of the music and moved my hips and feet to the rhythm. It really wasn´t that hard.
Soon there after Marco and Steve joined Katie on the dance floor and one of them handed me another glass.
I looked at Adrian gesturing him to dance with me.
Adrians POV
"I thought you wanted to dance" Sydney shouted
She looked stunning on the dance floor. And I could be standing here forever watching her.
She took another sip of her drink and smiled at me.
"Adrian" she shouted once again.
I chuckled and joined her on the dance floor.
"Finally" she said when I was standing in front of her.
I smiled and began to dance with her. I really wanted to touch her but didn´t trust myself.
I really needed to tell her the truth before anything could happen between us.
Katie winked at me and gave me a thumbs up while she was dancing with her two guys and it made me laugh.
