Okay it's official I've died and gone to heaven, God help me those eyes. I swear she's going to be the death of me. I can hardly breathe I have to get outta here, shit if I leave then I probably wont be able to get back in and Kyla's my ride. Ah…the bathroom, perfect. I quickly dart towards the bathroom and throw open the door. I close the door, thankfully it's one of those places that only has a single bathroom. I turn the lock on the door and leans against the back of it heavily. Wow..that was intense! I knew she was into music, I mean a music major'd have to be right..but..wow..her voice is amazing! She's so captivating on stage. It's not just lust talking, I truly feel something for this girl and it's got me scared shitless! I mean I barely know her..I've spoken maybe a handful of words to her..that's it! So, why am I so drawn to this girl..what makes her so different, so special? I swear that day in the studio, when our eyes locked as I began to draw her something happened! It felt as if I was looking into her soul, her eyes telling me everything…her secrets..her desires..her hopes, her dreams. I am completely floored! I cant believe I'm here and she's here. I saw her face she didn't know I was coming. But…Kyla did! My fucking roommate set me up! How did she know? Is it that obvious? Am I that transparent? I mean I told her about Ashley though I didn't tell the "model" 's name. Wait…the tattoos..that's how she knew! I went on and on about the girl's sexy rose tattoos. Man, what do I do now? Should I be upset? Should I leave? Should I beat the ever-loving shit out of Kyla or give her a big hug? I mean I did want to see Ashley again and here I am and here she is…us together. Wait..I don't mean TOGETHER, together…I mean in the sense we are in the same place. Fuck.. I'm rambling again..I tend to do that in situations such as these when I'm scared out of my mind. Maybe Ashley didn't really care if I was here or not. But, she did smile when she saw me and her eyes met mine on way more than one occasion. It was like she was singing only to me up there..or was I just imaging it? Was it just wishful thinking? God, I hope not! I just have to get close to her, yet I'm also scared to do so, she already has me acting like an idiot standing here talking to myself in the bathroom. Shit..Damn..Fuck!
I went over to the mirror and looked at myself. My cheeks were still flushed from all the excitement and Ashley's extreme closeness. I look presentable, still put together, still HOT, right? Shit, she's got me questioning myself. Crap! I brought my thumb to my eyes , wiping away were my eye make-up was beginning to smear from the hot stuffiness of the small club. I then turned on the water and washed my hands quickly. I ran my hands nervously across my stomach and then my thighs, smoothing out the invisible wrinkles that my nervous self thought my clothes held. I overheard the guy saying the next band was coming out..perfect I wouldn't attract too much attention everyone would be too busy watching the band. No one would ask question as to were I disappeared to for so long. I took a breathe, unlocking the door I finally stepped out back into the crowded club. The front of the stage was full so I opted to stand back a bit. The band on stage was pretty hardcore, much more so than any of the previous bands and a few guys were beginning to mosh around excitedly. I paid close attention so as not to get thrashed into or at least I thought I was until a pretty wasted guy headed straight for me. Before I could move or blink I felt two hands take me by the waist and gently move me out of the way. I paused as the soft fingers caressed my hips, I was about to get upset as to why the had not move the hands that were still resting at my hips when I looked over my shoulder and into a pair of warm brown eyes. Her eyes looked at me with concern, "Are you okay?", she asked bringing her lips close to my ear so that I could hear her over the loud music. At the instant feeling of her warm breath against my ear my body immediately relaxed. I nodded. She smiled lightly as her thumbs rubbed against the skin where her hands still remained, I look down at them quirking an eyebrow. She looked down suddenly realizing were her hands STILL were and moved them quickly, blushing a bit. Ohhh..since when is she the shy one. This is new! I smiled at her, "It's okay…", I said lightly not really caring if she kept her hands there all night or not. That would have been fine by me. "Thanks.", I added smiling at her. Her smile mirrored mine, "My pleasure Spence." Oh…her pleasure huh? She glanced at me again and smiled, I smiled in return. We both almost at the same time returned our attention back to the band performing in front of us, yet both would cast a glance at the other ever so often and when our eyes would meet we could help but let a smile from gracing our lips. We both almost at the same time returned our attention back to the band performing in front of us, yet both would cast a glance at the other ever so often and when our eyes would meet we could help but let a smile from gracing our lips. She remained very close to me our arms very close, sometimes one would graze the other and when they did I felt a surge of electricity go thru me, I didn't have to look at her to tell she felt it too because I could feel the Goosebumps on her tanned skin. The idiots in front of us continued to mosh around, when on would get too close her hand would immediately jump to my waist ready to protect me. This made me smile, I loved that she felt the need to protect me. It was very sweet.
We continued to stand there attempting to listen to the band. I say attempting because we we're both too busy stealing glances at one another to really be paying attention to what was going on around us. I could feel her eyes on me, not in a creepy way but, as if she was just studying me, my face, my movements. She leaned over close to my ear and again I shuttered as her hot breath hit my neck. "You want something to drink?" I looked over at her and simply nodded. I stuck my hand in my pocket intent on giving her some money for my drink, she just shook her head as she put her hand on mine to stop me. She chuckled a bit and smiled at me, "There is no way I'm letting you pay." I mouthed "thank you" and she returned a "my pleasure". Again with her pleasure, I'm beginning to think she is just teasing me. She extended an arm for me to walk ahead of me, I just smiled, she was not at all what I expected. She was going out of her way it seemed to look out for me, I really liked that! She was a very pleasant surprise. We made our way to the bar, I smiled as I felt her unconsciously rest her hand on my lower back as if to guide me, yet it felt again as if she were protecting me. When we reached the bar, I noticed that Kyla was seated on one of the stool while a short red-head stood in between her legs, they were doing some heavy flirting and the girl's hands were all over Kyla. Ashley looked over at me and followed my gaze to look at her sister. She just shook her head, "She gets like that sometimes." Honestly I should've have felt bad, what kind of friend was I that it took this long for me to realize Kyla's lack of presence. "Don't let it bother you.", she smiled as if knowing exactly what I was thinking. I smiled lightly, she was too much. "So what'll be?", the bartender purred looking at me. Ashley looked over at me, questioning me with her eyes, touching my shoulder. The bartender furrowed her brow and frowned at this. "Rum & Coke.", I said laughing lightly. "I'll have the same.", Ashley said smiling at the girl as if mocking her. The bartender grunted before leaving to get our drink orders. "I think you have a fan, Spence.", she smiled. "Yeah, and she doesn't seem to like you.", I joked. "Yeah I know I cant imagine why!", she said full of sarcasm as the bartender shot a glance in our direction and Ashley smiled putting her arm around me mocking her. "You're incorrigible.", I said laughing. "I couldn't help it, man if looks could kill. You have to admit it was funny.", she smiled again. I tried to hold in my laughter as we looked at the girl's evil glare that she continued to give Ashley. I failed miserably falling it's a fit of laughter, she joined in. I noticed when she smiled widely her nose crinkled, God that is adorable. The bartender returned sitting our drinks down a little harder than necessary, Ashley simply smiled handing some money. We both laughed before walking over to sit down at a booth. We continued to watch the band and sipping our drinks, not really saying anything, merely enjoying each other's company. It was nice, I cant believe how comfortable I feel around her, she makes me feel like I've known her my whole life.
Before we both knew it the band was finished and people began to disperse. It was time to leave but, God I didn't want the night to end. We stood up and walked outside, Ashley stopped at the door and was met by a goliath-sized by Mike, then he took both her and I by surprise by doing the same to me. I awkwardly patted his huge shoulder as he held me in the air like a rag doll. This made Ashley chuckle of course. He finally put me down and we continued our walk to the parking lot. As we approached to where Kyla parked I watched as an emotion crosses her features, I think it was sadness or dread. When rounded the corner we saw them, Kyla had the same red-head from before pinned against the door of her mustang, they were practically having sex there. Ashley shook her head again, "Spence, I don't want to tell you what to do but, if I were you I would not stay at your dorm room tonight. Believe me I lived across the hall from her and you don't want to be around that." "I live with her, were am I suppose to go.", I sighed slightly annoyed. She shifted from foot to foot, kicking at the gravel with the toe of her shoe. "Well, you can crash at my place if you want.", she looked up at me with hopeful eyes.
