Chapter 20:
Confession
Previously:
Then, I heard a new song start to play out on the dance floor. It was fast pace, danceable, and just what I needed to escape.
"Oh my God, I love this song!" I said standing up. "You ladies wanna dance?"
I know they'll say yes. My plan is to head to the dance floor, since it's crowded with drunken sweaty bodies, it would be easy for me to sneak out amongst the crowd. I left my purse I filled with clothes in the car, so all I had to do was get in and leave. I estimated about twenty minutes to drive as fast as I could to the nearest bus station and take it to the airport. Since it would probably take those ninjas that much time to realize that I left the club and make it back to my house to tell everyone. I knew my dad could easily use the car's GPS to locate me, that's why I would ditch it at the bus station. They would have no idea which bus I took, meaning they would not know my destination.
"Fuck yea, let's GO!" Lisa stood up and the rest of the girls followed. I noticed the guys give each other a look before standing as well.
As we made our way down to the dance floor, I began to feel nervous. What if I don't make it out?...What if they catch me before I can get to the car?...Fuck there ninja's I might not be able to make it out the Club! I shook my head, and I could feel my brain cloud with drunkness. No! I can't be negative about this. This plan is going to work...It has to.
The music was booming as we stepped into the sea of people. They moved their bodies wild and erotically to the beat. We had now walked close enough to the DJ that I could feel the base vibrate through my body. I looked behind me to see my babysitters a few feet away. Though they kept a lot of distance from me, they still kept a watchful eye. I knew the space was intentional, probably to allow me some freedom. If they wanted to, they could stand right next to me or hold on to me, so that they wouldn't loose me among the crowd. But they didn't. Did they think I was not stupid enough to try anything, like escaping with them around? Or did they have a lot of confidence in their ability to capture me, if need be?
I went dipper into dance floor. When I felt as though I had given us enough space I looked back and scanned the crowd for the three men. When I couldn't see them, I ran. This is my chance! Struggling through the hot perspiring bodies around me, but I kept on pushing until I was out.
There it is,... there's my way out. It was only a couple steps away. Two metal double doors that read the words 'Exit' above it in red. I did it! As soon as I go through these doors, it will start the beginning of my new life. I took a step towards it, but was stopped by a sudden tap on my shoulder.
"Where are you going?" I heard Itachi call from behind. Shit! I turned around to see Itachi staring at me, a few steps back stood Deidara and Sasori. I looked around and saw the perfect answer to his question. The Ladies Restoom.
"I have to pee." Damn it! That alcohol was really starting to hit me. I felt as though I had no filter and said whatever came to mind. Then I realized that those were the first words I've spoken to him since the other night. Great, haven't talked to the man in a while and the first thing I have to say is 'I have to pee.' ...smooth, Kami. Just smooth. I mentally kicked myself.
He nodded and stepped away, but lingered close to the Exit. I stumble to the bathroom door and closed it quickly behind me. Shit!Shit!Shit! What should I do? How am I suppose to get out of the Club with them standing near the Exit? My head began to swirled under the control of the alcohol and I had to constantly remind myself to stay focus. I just had to reach the car.
I looked around the room and saw the most beautiful thing someone in my situation could possibly see... a window. However, it was beyond small. It was tiny. Definitely would be able to fit my small breasts and tiny waist , but my ass...Shit.
I staggered over to the window and opened it. Man, it's getting so difficult to walk. I pushed my hands out and used them to pull my body through. When it came time to pull my ass out, it was a short struggle, but nothing a little wiggling couldn't cure. When I was completely out I stood up and looked around to see where I was. Apparently the window led me to the back of the Club. Luckily for me, it faced the parking lot and I could see my parked Cadillac Escalade. It's black sleekness, shining under the moon's light. I pulled the key I had stashed in my bra and walked clumsily towards car.
By now, the alcohol was in full effect. I knew it was wrong to drive in my current condition but I had to try.
After stumbling a few times, I finally made it. I stuck the key into the door of the driver seat but before I could turn it, a hand clamped down over mine and squeezed it hard until I let go. Ouch!
"What are your doing?" Itachi said as he turned me around quickly. Fuck.
I couldn't believe that I had been caught. All my hard work and preparations for this moment. Failed. My eye's swelled and burned as tears streamed down my face.
"Trying to survive." I said answering his question.
"What are you talking about?" I was crying too hard to give him an answer, my mind was only focused on one thing, I'm going to die. "Please Kami, tell me what's wrong. Why are you so upset?" His voice was soothing as he spoke.
"I can't go to your world, Itachi... I'll die." The tears intensified
"Why do you think your going to die, Kami?" Itachi lowered his head so that he could look in my eyes. My face flushed with heat and I turned my head away. Why was I still getting hot over this guy, when I knew he didn't want me? He notice me avoiding him and sighed.
"Kami, I need to apologize. I lied when I told you I did not share the same feelings as you."
What is he saying?I couldn't focus on what he was saying. My mind kept fazing in and out as he spoke. My body swayed and he put a hand on my waist to steady me.
"I've felt so much guilt after what I had done to my Clan...I-I" He stuttered over his words but took a deep breathe and continued. "I didn't believe that I deserved any ...happiness." My head felt like it weighed a ton and grew increasingly difficult to keep up. It bobbed down but Itachi used his other hand to hold my head up.
"Do you understand, Kami?" He ask bringing his face closer to mines. "You make me feel pleasure that I didn't think I deserved because of my past. But I've now, realized that I'm being unfair to you. And I'm sorry...ah, Kami?" My body went limp but his hand on my waist prevented me from falling.
"Itachi, I'm tired" My eyelids felt like lead as they fought to close.
He chuckled, "I'm confessing my feelings for you, but you most likely won't remember them tomorrow." He pulled me closer to his body for better support. "Then sleep, Kami. When you wake, you will be in a whole new world."
"A world that should have been your home." A deep voice spoke from within. My eyes finally closed and I emerged into darkness.
Well... You heard em'. Next chapter is a new world.
To everyone who wanted Kami to get away- Sorry, But Kami did not escape(That would have been too nice of me. And ya'll know how i loathe happy endings)... But don't worry. The story doesn't stop here!
