I was laying in my bed, laptop on the one, textbook on the other side. Can you believe that I already had to do homework on the first day? I try to find a more comfortable position but that doesn't work that well because I always get uncomfy after another ten minutes.
I totally needed a break, that's why I was happy when my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID; it's Caroline. I answer the phone.
"Hey Car, what's up?" I say.
"I'm just wondering if you are free this evening?" she asks.
"Hm well, I need to get this paper done until the end of the week and I don't make any progress but I feel like I won't be very productive today anyway so yes, I'm free. Why?", I ask because I know that Caroline has always something planned.
"I might or might not have tickets for this kickass club tonight. At least I heard it's kickass. Are you in? We haven't had a lady's night in ages so I thought that's totally what we need! College is totally stressing me out!" she says so fast it's hard for me to follow her. I thought about her offer for a few seconds and then decided that I was in. We made out a time and place were we'd meet and then I hung up.
It took me some time to choose a perfect piece of clothing but I ended up with a short red cocktail dress which goes nice with my long brown hair. Although I'm not on a boy hunt tonight I still like to look good.
I took a cap and headed to the club, where we agreed to meet. When I got out I could feel the wind on my skin. It was a clear night, so clear that you could see the stars. I waited another ten minutes and then Caroline finally showed up. (She's always late, tzz.)
"So sorry I'm late, I didn't know what to wear!" she apologized.
"Yeah, I had the same problem." She looked amazing though. She wore skinny jeans, black peeptoes and a really pretty babydoll top. I have to admit, we looked hot and that's probably one of the reasons why we didn't have any problems with the doorman and got in.
The music wasn't really my taste but Caroline liked it so we danced anyway. I actually had a lot of fun until I looked around and found Jessie standing near the boxes and looking over to us.
"I can't believe that dick is here!" I yelled out.
"What? Who is where?" Caroline asked confused.
"Jessie! Over there!" I shouted over the loud music and pointed to where he was standing. To my surprise (well not really) Adrian Ivashkov was also standing with him. Just the kind of people I expected him to hang out with actually.
"I'm so sorry hun. We can move clubs if you want to get away from him?" she asked. It was nice that she was so sensitive but this was our night and I wouldn't let him ruin it.
"No, it's fine. I'll get us some drinks okay?" I said and then I walked over to the bar. Caroline would be okay if she's a few minutes without me, she never had problems to find company and after a little while I already saw her dancing with a guy. I ordered a long island iced tea and enjoyed these minutes on my own. All of sudden I felt a grip on my hip and saw someone sitting next to me. I turned my head and looked into familiar eyes. Adrian Ivashkov.
"Hello beautiful. You're Rose Hathaway right? I've heard a lot about you." He grinned at me.
He's here with Jessie, I don't even want to know what he's heard.
I took another sip from my glass and said "I bet you did. What do you want?"
"Why so mean? Can't a guy just come over to a pretty girl and invite her for a drink? What would you like to have?" he said, still grinning. I wasn't in flirting mood and I definetely wasn't in flirting mood with someone who was friends with Jessie.
"Listen Ivashkov", I started, "I know everything about you. Troubled party boy, daddy doesn't trust you so now you're stuck here. You party every day with different people and take home another girl every night. Of course you never take the girl with you, you always go with her so you can escape the morning after and you never have to see her again. Just for your information: I'm not the girl you think I am and I'm definetely not gonna be the girl that you can leave tomorrow while I'm still naked in bed.", He looked quite puzzled by now, to be honest. "I hope you'll find what you were looking for tonight but that something won't be me. Good night, Adrian." I said, emptied my glass, took my purse and left him there, sitting alone. I guess he wasn't used to getting rejected by girls. Well, there's a first time for everything and my departure was classical, just like the movies. I was quite proud of myself if I may say that.
