On My Mind
Chapter 13
"You sure you don't mind coming here?" Dave yelled into Amber's ear, though she barely knew what he was saying. After the show, Dave and John's friends invited them to join everyone at a nearby club. After John had politely made sure it was fine with her, they made their way over to the club. She hadn't planned on coming but she knew she would have a great time. She had left her jacket in John's car because she knew she'd get hot and who dances with a jacket on anyway?
"It's fine Dave, stop worrying." She yelled into his ear. He had asked her the same question numerous times and it was getting ridiculous. He nodded, finally listening to her. She resisted the temptation of dancing and just watched everyone else dance for a while and watched John and Dave take shot after shot after shot. It seemed she was the designated driver for the night. Finally, she became bored and asked Dave to dance. He smiled and stood up.
"Its about time." He said but she wasn't sure, she could hear him too clear. He took a hold of her hand and led her through the crowd until he found a spot he was happy with. They started dancing and Amber giggled to herself. He was a great dancer. Usually the guys she would go out with had terrible dance skills. It was nice to have chemistry with someone on the dance floor. She closed her eyes and held her hands above her head as she danced, getting into it. Dave seemed to be getting into it too because his hands gripped her hips a little tighter. Amber laughed and opened her eyes. The minute her eyes opened, they connected with intense brown eyes from across the club. They stared at each other for a minute before Paul smiled and raised his beer bottle at her and turned his attention to his friend next to him. Dave leaned down and told her that he was going to go to the bathroom. Amber nodded her head and watched him leave before she continued dancing by herself. She let the rhythm of the music take over until she felt someone slip their arm around her waist. She glanced back to see who it was and was shocked to see Paul.
"You looked a little lonely." He said gently into her ear. She let out a sigh. She'd only met Paul once which was like three hours ago, and he definitely wasn't her type and the way he talked to her let her know he wasn't interested in her either, he was just looking out for her which comforted her. They danced, not as wildly as she had with Dave, but danced none the less.
Paul looked up and saw Dave standing by the bar glaring at him. Dave raised his eyebrow at Paul as if saying 'fuck up, I fuck you up'. Paul took his advice and separated himself from Amber. "I better leave. I've got an early flight in the morning." Amber nodded and didn't stop dancing as Paul worked his way back to his friends. Moments later, she felt a fair of strong arms circle around her. She knew it was Dave. She turned around and sure enough, it was Dave. She smiled at him and wrapped her arms around his neck and continued dancing with him as uninhabited as before.
Amber walked out of the club behind Dave and John. They had their arms slung around each others shoulder and were leaning against each other laughing at something that really wasn't that funny. Amber was pushing them through the crowd, rolling her eyes at them. On the way from the club to the car, John and Dave had made up their own language and they were using it the entire ride back to the house. It took Amber a while to get used to driving John's big car, but eventually, she got the hang of it. They were home in no time and she sighed when she looked to her right and noticed that both men had chosen this moment to fall asleep. She weighed her options; she could either leave them in the car or take the painful walk into the house. She sighed, the good part of her won out. She hopped out of the truck and opened the passenger seat, quickly holding her arms out to stop John from tumbling out. Once she got John into a stable sitting position, she searched his pockets for the house key but couldn't find anything. She shook John until he woke up.
"John, where is your house key?" She asked quietly.
"With the keys." He replied barely coherent. She looked at him not quite understanding before it clicked. She looked at the car keys and saw there were several other keys attached. Bingo. She put those in her pocket and dragged John out of the car. What a task, the man weighed a ton. This was worse than loading all those boxes into her house. After several minutes, they made it to the door. She leant John against the door for a few seconds so she could figure out which key was for the house. When she did get in, Butch erupted into loud barks. Amber calmed him down relatively fast and bent down to kiss him on the head. It took a few minutes to get John in bed. She was going to take off his clothes but that just felt wrong so she just tucked him under the covers and left after she saw he was situated. By the time she got back out to Dave, he was asleep, taking up the entire truck seat.
"Come on big boy." She mumbled to herself as she used all her strength to pull Dave out of the truck. He was even heavier than John, and taller so he was harder to maneuver. She was definitely never going to be designated driver again with these two. Either that or she was just going to leave them in the car all night.
It took her a little longer to get Dave into a room. She was already tired from carrying John and then she didn't know which room Dave was staying in so she just guessed. After she laid him down she went into the kitchen to get herself a glass of water. That was a workout. She took a minute to look around the house, something she had yet to do, and then filled up two glasses of water. She scrounged up some advil and made her way into John's room. She set a cup of water and a couple tablets of advil on his bedside table. She also set a trashcan next to his bed, just in case. She made her way to Dave's room, to give him the same materials and as she walked in, she stopped at the doorway and smiled. Dave was laying on the bed with just his pants on. He had taken off his shirt and thrown it on the floor and looked up at her when she said hi. "It's been a big night. Go to sleep." She whispered setting the advil and water on his bedside table. It took some searching but she finally found another trashcan and set it next to him. She looked down at him and smoothed her hand over his forehead. He looked so peaceful when he was sleeping. She made her way out the front door, turning off all the lights and locking the door on her way out. She went straight to bed when she got home, falling asleep instantly.
Amber woke up pretty early. But it was nice, this was the first time in a long time that she was awake before noon on a Sunday. She got out of bed and made her way into the kitchen to make herself some breakfast. After it was done, she fixed herself a plate and walked into the living room to watch TV. After five minutes, there was a knock on the door. She looked through her curtains behind her and smiled when she saw John and Dave standing in front of the door. "Come in!" She yelled and laughed when they walked in. "Hey it's my party animals." They looked like they had been tortured. They had circles around their eyes and looked almost sick. Dave and John walked into her kitchen without saying anything. She heard plates clicking together and shrugged, she made plenty of food. When they walked out of the kitchen, they had full plates and sat down on either side of her.
"We got you flowers, I put them in a vase for you." John said while he was chewing some bacon.
"Thanks." She said with a smile. They were silent after that, watching some old TV sitcom.
"Thanks for breakfast." John said as he finished his breakfast. He stood up and washed his plate in the kitchen. He gave Amber a kiss on the cheek before he left.
"You're welcome!" She yelled after him with a smile.
"About last night…I'm really sorry. Our drinking got a bit out of hand." Dave said after a moment of silence. He scratched the back of his neck and looked really embarrassed and she smiled.
"Dave," She put a hand on his wrist that was scratching his neck. "Don't worry about it. We all have our drunk nights."
"And thanks for the Advil and everything. Me and John both used it all up." He said with a laugh and adjusted their hands so their fingers were intertwined between their bodies; she smiled up at him.
"What are friends for?" She asked with a small shoulder shrug. Dave cleared his throat and started fidgeting. "Is there something wrong?" She asked kinda worried.
"Well, it's just last night. At the club. I saw you dancing with Paul." He said and she shook her head.
"We were just dancing." She said thinking she knew where he was going. He smiled and nodded his head.
"I know. That's wasn't what I was going to say though. I just wanted to let you know to be careful. He's a big manipulator. We used to be friends and he just fooled me our entire friendship. Just watch out for yourself." He said and she sighed in delight. He was perfect. Usually guys would get all possessive and protective, but no, not Dave. He told her to look out for herself. She closed her eyes and leaned in to kiss his cheek.
"I definitely will. But I doubt I'll ever see him again." She said confidently.
"Alright. Well I better go. I think I'm gonna go take a nap." He said standing up. He repeated John's earlier actions and cleaned his plate and kissed Amber on the cheek on the way out. "See you later." She opened the curtain behind her and let a small smirk cross her lips.
