Katerina's classes were over for the day and she headed home. She had told Izzy that she met Adam Levine on the new coffee shop that she was working. Izzy's face was priceless and immediatly she ran her over with questions, maybe it wasn't a very good idea telling her this because now she wouldn't shut up about it.
Izzy loved Maroon 5 and was crazy for Adam Levine, so when Katerina told her that she rejected a date with him, the conversation went down like this.
"If, Jesus knocked at your door, you would slam the door on his face?" She questioned in desbelief.
"I just can not believe that you compared Jesus with Adam." Katerina shook her head, while she put her books into her locker.
"That's not the point. I mean, Adam Freaking Levine just asked you out and you just said no?" Izzy raised an eyebrow.
"You do forget a small detail... How about Robert Skykes? Rings a bell?" Katerina retorted.
"I'm sorry Kat, but you and Rob are non-exist since spring break." Her blonde friend replied.
"It's not like that ok? He has to deal with some... issues with his family." Katerine walked down the hall with her bf. "Besides, I'm with Robert for two years now, I'm not going to throw that away just because some hot rockstar took an interest on me."
"Ok, maybe you're right. But, you have to admit that you and Rob are not that happy couple that you used to be. I just want to see you happy, Kat." Izzy sighed.
"I know, Iz. And I love you for that."
She didn't want to think about him because that would be very wrong of her, she had a boyfriend. Period. But it angered her that she couldn't stop thinking about him all day.
Adam was sitting on his couch with his guitar thinking about Katerina, the girl who has been consuming his thoughts since this morning. He had never met someone like her that's for sure and he had met a lot of people in his life.
There was something about this girl that he couldn't explain, she payed no attention to him and that only made him more determined to get to know her better.
But, he didn't know when he would see her again and that made him anxious. Maybe he could go back to that coffee shop and ask the pretty waitress, they seemed friends.
"What do you think, Frankie?" He looked down at his dog. "Should I go after this girl?"
Frankie just barked and shook her tail with excitement, he could always count with his loyal friend for everything. Adam smiled down at his dog and patted her head, suddenly his phone began to ring. He grabbed it and saw the I.D, it was Shawn. He clicked 'Answer'.
"Hey, Shawn. What's up?" He answered.
"Hey, Adam. So, this new club inaugurated yesterday and the owner wants the band to perform some songs..."
"Sounds great, what is the name of this club?" Adam questioned.
"It's Bardoniz, and the limo will pick you guys up at 9pm, so delays!"
"Shawn, come on man. When you say it like that, it seems that I'm always late." Adam spoke.
"You know what I mean, so talk to you later."
"Ok, bye." He hung up the phone. He still had plenty of time until 9pm, so he got up from his couch and grabbed his car keys and walked out of the house.
Katerina opened the door of her apartment to see her two brothers sitting in front of the TV with beer cans on the floor and bags of chips.
She threw her bag to the table and walked over to the TV and stood in front of it.
"Hum... What are you doing?" Tyler raised an eyebrow.
"Making you moorons to look around besides the TV." She crossed her arms over her chest. They looked around and noticed that the living-room was a little messy and disorganized.
"Ok, you made your point Kat, now get out of the way." James ordered.
"No, I'm not going to get out of the way... You guys need to clean this up! I'm not your fucking slave." She growled.
"Damnit! Kat, as soon as the game is over, we are going to clean this, we promise." Tyler put his hands together.
"Does your life have any meaning whatsoever? Besides the Lakers games?" She scoffed.
"Uh oh, here comes the buzz-kill..." Tyler put his hands behind his head.
"You know Kat, you used to be a lot more fun when you couldn't talk." James mused.
"I was a new born baby!" She creased her eyebrows.
"Precisely." He nodded and she narrowed her eyes and moved away from the TV.
"Thank GOD!" The guys praised.
"Life would be so much more beautiful if I was an only child." Katerina spoke from behind her.
"Well, we can't have everything... And why are you in such a bad mood?" Tyler turned on the couch to look at her. "Did Rob stood you up again?" He teased, she just grabbed a beer can and threw it at him and he ducked.
"Next time, I won't miss." She promised as she grabbed her bag and walked into her room. She threw herself on the bed and sighed loudly. Truth be told, she didn't know why she was such in a bad mood anyway, maybe it was because of her 'M.I.A' boyfriend, or because she had so many projects to do for college or that Izzy's words were replaying in her mind.
Adam Levine asked her out and said no right away, this may sound crazy to any people and she gets it. He is basically sex on legs and every girl would probably die to be in her position, but trust and loyalty was a very big deal to Katerina, she and her boyfriend were going through though times but that doesn't mean that she can break up with him just because Adam Levine is attracted to her.
What she didn't get it though, is why a famous celebrity like him would take an interest in her? She saw from magazines that his type of woman are most likely super-models and actresses... Katerina didn't blame him, they are certainly the definiton of 'beautiful women', but in her opinion they lacked of something called: intelligence. She wasn't calling them dumb by all means, but there is a huge difference between a smart woman and an intelligent one.
Katerina considered herself an attractive girl, she knew that a few guys in school were interested in her, despite dating Rob. Definitely not the 'hottest' girl in school but sometimes she wished that her own boyfriend could give her the attention that some guys gives.
She heard a knock on the door and mumbled a 'come in', the door opened to reveal her brother Tyler.
"Kat, are you still mad?" He questioned warily.
"I'm not mad you dork." She sighed as she sat on the bed. "I shouldn't have yelled at you guys anways, I'm sorry."
"We shouldn't have picked you on about Rob, either." He layed on the bed next to her. "So, what's wrong?"
Tyler and James were her big brothers and being the only girl can be hard. They are so much alike yet so different, they have the same things in common but their personalities were a bit different.
James was more cocky and bossy, while Tyler was more understanding and chill out. The both were annoying and goofy and very overprotective when it comes to Kat.
"Nothing, it's just... Do you ever feel like you should be happy because you have everything that you want but it seems that something is missing?" She supported her head on his shoulder.
Tyler just cocked an eyebrow and scratched his head in confusion, "Look, I don't do the sensitive talks, that's what you girls do right? Maybe you should ask Izzy..."
"I don't want to ask Izzy, I want to ask you Ty." Kat pushed her hair from her eyes.
"I don't really see what is bugging you... I mean, you have a boyfriend, friends that love you, two devilish handsome brothers, you're like the Einstein of this family, you pretty much have it all..." He shrugged. She narrowed her eyes, leave it to Tyler to be this basic.
"Thanks for telling me the obvious, buttercup." Kat shook her head.
"Again with the powerpuff girls jokes?" He scoffed. Before she could do anything, her brother pinned her on the bed and immediatly started to tickle her.
"Tyler, no!" She cried but he didn't stop.
"Say you're sorry." He told her. "Surrender!"
"Never!" She continued to laugh hysterically.
"Wrong answer, little sis." He smiled evilly as he continued to tickle her.
"Please! Stop!" She tried to get away from him but he didn't let her. The door opened to reveal James with an amused face as he watched his sibilings.
"James! My favourite brother!" Kat turned to him. "Save me from the insane one."
"No can do baby sis, I just came to check if someone was dying, guess not." He smirked as he walked out of the room.
"I hate you guys!" Kat wiggled from Tyler.
"We love you too, Katty." He smiled.
Adam parked his car near the coffee shop and walked towards the entrance when the paparazzi immediatly surrounded him.
"Great, I have to deal with these assholes." He mumbled to himself. They were taking pictures of him and throwing questions.
"Adam! How are you doing after your break-up with Anne?" One of them asked.
"Splendid." He answered sarcastically as he passed by them.
"Is it true that now you're dating Victoria's Secret model, Behati Prinsloo who happens to be her friend?"
Adam just ignored them, he didn't have the time to deal with them right now. All these rumours about him and Behati were driving him crazy, they did hook up once and now the paps were all over him.
He walked inside of the coffee shop and immediatly his eyes went to the last table with hope that Katerina might be sitting there reading her book, but no such luck.
The waitress from yesterday was cleaning up some tables and he took this opportunity to talk to her.
"Hi." He pushed up his dark shades and gave her a charming smile, he needed to know where he could find Katerina and he would use all of his weapons to make that happen.
"Welcome to Merlin's-" She turned to the customer and immediatly she almost let the plates fall on the floor. "Oh m-my G-God!"
"I go by Adam, but that's fine by me too." He smiled charmingly at her. He could tell that she was starstrucked by him and he would use that to his advantage.
"I'm s-sorry, it's just... You're here again! And God you have such beautiful eyes." She blurted out and immediatly covered her mouth with her hand.
"Thank you, and you are very pretty too." He complimented her and she could feel her knees going weak. "So, what's your name?"
"K-K-Kayla." She sttured as she continued to gaze at him.
"Kayla, I was hoping you could help me with something..." He trailed off.
"Anything." She nodded her head eagerly.
"Do you happen to know if the girl that was sitting on that table." He pointed to the table. "Usually comes here? Her name is Katerina."
"Oh, you mean Kat?" She smiled. "She actually works here! Yesterday, was her day-off but she comes to work after college everyday minus Wednesday, Friday and Sunday."
"You don't say..." A small smile creeped into his lips. "Well, today is Thursday. So, she will come to work now right?"
"Yeah, her shift is about to start!" Kayla looked over at the clock.
"Thank you for your help, Kayla." He pulled out a pen from his back pocket and signed an autograph on her arm. It said 'Dear Kayla, never stop smiling, love Adam Levine'
She almost fainted when she read the message, she made sure to never wash her arm ever again.
Adam went to sit on a table as he waited patienly for Katerina to show up, she will have to go out with him.
Katerina got up from her bed, she managed to get away from Tyler as she had to get ready for her shift at the coffee shop. She changed her clothes and now was wearing an Ikat Peggy tank top, stutted shorts, and red converse. Her hair was naturally curled as she added a necklace, a ring and a bracelet to her outfit. (profile).
Once she was ready to go, her phone buzzed and she went to read the text message.
New club near Malibu, at 8pm you're in? :) - Izzy
Kat wasn't really in the mood to go partying, besides she had class tomorrow, but then again college was all about parties and beer.
I'm in. - Kat
She sent her reply and grabbed her black Marc Jacobs bag and walked out of the room.
"You're off to work?" James questioned as he played with his football bored.
"Yeah, and don't wait up... I'm going to this new club with Izzy and some friends." She told him.
"I'm sorry but I believe that today is a school night, young lady." James tried to sound serious but failed miserably.
"Ha ha, James. I almost took you seriously for a second." She narrowed her eyes. "Clean up the kitchen, see ya loosers."
At the coffee shop, Adam was playing Angry Birds on his phone as he continued to wait for Katerina. Just then, the bell of the door rang and he looked over at the entrance. She walked into the coffee shop in a hurry that she didn't even noticed him.
"Sorry, I'm late Kay." Katerina looked at her friend who wasn't paying any attention to her. "Kayla?"
"Sorry, what?" She looked over at Kat.
"Why are you staring at your arm like there's no tomorrow?" Katerina cocked an eyebrow.
"Because right now there isn't." She sighed in content.
"Kayla?" Kat raised her eyebrows. "Are you high or something?"
The green-eyed girl just showed her arm and Kat read the message and her eyes couldn't believe it. Adam signed on her arm, he was here. Again.
"Adam was here?" Katerina demanded.
"You mean still is... I think, he was waiting for you to show up." Kayla shrugged.
"What? How did he know that I was going to come back here?" Kat creased her eyebrows.
"Oh, I told him that you worked here." Kayla replied like it was no big deal.
"I'm sorry, did you just sold my soul to the devil because Adam Levine gave you a fucking autograph?" Katerina questioned in desbelief.
"Oh, come on, Kat. Where is the big deal?" She questioned.
"I can not believe you Kayla!" Kat went to the employees room to change into her uniform as she took a huge breath, she had to put her A-game on or she wouldn't survive this afternoon.
She walked out of the room and went to serve her customers, in the way she sent a glare to her friend who just betrayed her, Kayla gave her a apologetically smile.
Adam saw her talking to a customer and got up from his seat, she was showing her back so she couldn't see him right now. When she turned around, she yelped and let her notebook fall on the floor.
Kat went to pick it up at the same time as Adam and their hands touched, she got up quickly and adjusted her uniform.
"You know stalking me to the point where you have to ask one of my coworkers where you could find me, it's pretty sad." She hissed.
"You certainly jump to conclusions, who's to say that I just came here to grab a cup of coffee." Adam mused.
Kat just rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest as she glared at him.
"What do you want?" She questioned.
"Black coffee and some apple pie." He smirked. Kat looked at him for a moment and turned away so he could get his order.
Adam was enjoying this too much, watching her squirm with his presence, it's very amusing. She walked back to his table and placed the coffee and the pie in front of him.
"There's something else I can get you?" She questioned in a fake cheery voice.
"Yes. Your phone number." He grinned.
"Not a chance." She smirked.
"I will get it sooner or later, I just rather prefer that it would be you to give it to me." He shrugged.
"You know that I have a boyfriend and yet, you're still trying to seduce me, what does that say of you?" She titled her head to the side.
"Where is this boyfriend that you speak? I'll back off, when I see him." He ignored her question, he knew that he was being a bastard for trying to steal someone else's girlfriend but he really didn't care.
"Of course, he's not going to be here. I'm working." Kat hissed.
"So? If he really cared about you, he would visit you at work to check up on you." He pointed out.
"You don't know anything about my boyfriend, so don't talk about him like you do." She moved closer to him to make a point, so they were only inches away from each other.
"So touchy." He whispered and she could feel his strong cologne that was intoxicating her in a good way, before she could move away from him, he grabbed her chin to make her stay. "I'm just saying if I had a girlfriend like you, I wouldn't leave space to another guy to replace me."
She just slapped his hand away and he chuckled, she was very feisty and he loved that she could put him on his toes.
"I guess, you'll never know uh?" She remarked as she walked away.
"You really know how to bring a guy down, don't ya?" Adam smirked. Kat just continued doing her work as she did her best to ignore him.
Unfortunately time was running short, and Adam had already received a text from Jesse saying that they had band practice before the show.
He got up and went to the cashier to pay for his order while Katerina wouldn't look at him in the eyes.
"I'll see you later, Kat." He smiled at her.
"Only my friends get to call me that." She growled. Adam took the opportunity that she looked down and kissed her cheek.
"That was a dick move." She clenched her jaw.
"I would say innocent." Adam grinned as he walked out of the coffee shop.
Adam arrived at the studio where all the guys were waiting for her, while they were checking the instruments.
"Adam Levine decided to honour us with his presence, finally." James made a mock bow as Adam grabbed the bottle of water that he was carrying and threw at him.
"I'm not that late." He narrowed her eyes.
"Well, Fred begs to differ." Matt spoke up. "So, where were you that took all of your time?"
"Around." He shrugged.
"Where's 'around'?" Jesse questioned.
"Geez, mom. I don't know, around?" Adam sat on the chair.
"Oh, I think around means that new coffee shop where that blue-eyed girl was." James smirked. The guys immediatly began to whisper and teasing him about it.
"Guys! Calm the fuck down... Yes, I went to see Katerina." Adam confessed.
"Oh, Katerina is her name?" Matt mused. "That's a hot name."
"For a hot girl." Jesse piped up.
"Hey! Lay off, I saw her first." Adam punched Jesse's arm playfully.
"Man, she has you under her spell and you just saw her twice." Mickey shook his head.
"Don't you guys have to practice?" Fred walked into the room and the guys immediatly got to their positions with their hands on the air.
Kat was already home and she was completely exhausted from work, and not only that she couldn't believe that Adam went to the coffee shop just to see her.
This guy has seriously problems, his attitude towards her is very fucked up, just because he is hot and famous he thinks that he can have anyone that he wants. But not her, she would not let him affect her.
But the worst thing is that he is already affecting her and she doesn't know how to disguise anymore.
Kat grabbed her blackberry on the bed and dialed Rob's number and she waited for a while.
"Hello?"
"Hey, stranger. Remember me?" Kat smiled a little bit.
"Why would I forget you? Everything's ok?" He questioned, but in reality she should ask him that, she noticed that his voice was very tired and different.
"I mean... Yeah, I haven't seen you around at college and we haven't hang out for a while." She sighed.
"I know... I'm sorry Kat, it's just... Things are pretty fucked up here at home and I have to take care of my mom."
Kat felt like a selfish little brat, his family was going through so much and here she was calling her boyfriend just because she is needy.
"You're right, you should be with your family that is where you belong, call me if something happens." Kat told him.
"Ok, are you going to that new club?"
"Yeah, I don't want Izzy on my case, so I don't really have a choice." She shrugged.
"Yeah, probably not. So, something new that I should be aware?"
Kat went silent for a moment, she would not tell him about Adam. There is no need to add more fuel to the fire.
"Nah, everything is pretty much the same..." She hated lies, but she didn't need more drama in her life.
"Ok, so maybe I'll see you at the club, later on..."
"Really?" Her voice was hopeful.
"Yeah, I miss you."
"I miss you too Rob, love you." She told him.
"Love you too." He replied softly as he hang up the phone. She fell back on the bed and closed her eyes, there was something different about him, she could notice in his voice, something that he wasn't telling her.
Her phone began to ring and she clicked 'Answer' when she saw the I.D.
"Hey, Iz."
"Kat! I hope you're getting ready because I'm going to pick you up in one hour!"
"Look, I don't really feel like going out right now..." Kat groaned.
"Whatever happened to my best friend, I will never know..."
"Izzy-"
"No, something is wrong with you... I don't know if it is because of Rob, but lately you've been isolating from everyone, especially me and don't get it, you used to tell me everything and now I feel like you keep things from me and I'm not your best friend Katerina, I'm your damn sister and we tell each other everything or we used to."
"That's not fair, Izzy! I tell you everything, I just don't feel very well." Kat spoke.
"That's bullshit and you know it! You used to be so much more fun, you would infect people with your personality and smile, you used to be the life of the party, sponteneous and fun. And now all you do is listen to music and read your books like a fucking emo."
"Is it really that bad that I want to have my own space?" Kat raised her voice.
"I just want you to talk to me, I'm here for everything, I'm your partner in crime. I really just want my old friend back."
Kat ran her hand through her hair and took a huge breath, she wasn't feeling herself anymore and that was pretty obvious to everyone at this point and she didn't know that her best friend felt this way about her.
"I'm sorry Iz, you're right. I haven't been myself lately and didn't want to make you feel like I don't trust you anymore, come pick me up in one hour!" Kat told her firmly.
"Yes! That's my girl, I'll see you later." She hang up the phone.
Kat quickly went to take a shower and chose her outfit for the night, Izzy was right she had to get away from her dark place and she decided that she was going to have fun tonight. She chose to wear a black sequin bustier dress and some black Jeffrey Campbell shoe boots. Then she went to her make-up and applied some mascara and nude lipstick on her lips, she hated too much make-up so she always went to the soft and light approach. She added some perfume and put some silver rose stud earrings. She decided to made her hair in a messy updo. (profile)
Kat grabbed her red and black envelope clutch and took one last look at the mirror and she was ready to go.
She walked out of the room and saw two people making out on the couch and she groaned.
"Well, you could eat each others face in the room." Kat narrowed her eyes. They quickly pulled away and the redhead looked flustered.
"Sorry Kat, we thought that you had already left." Allison smiled awkwardly.
"No worries, Ali. I was about to leave now, anyway." Kat shrugged.
"Way to cockblock Kat." James huffed in annoyance.
"My pleasure really James." Kat bowed at him mockily and he threw a pillow at her.
"Wait. Where are you going dressed like that?" He looked over at her outfit.
"James, please. That used to be funny when I was 18." Kat rolled her eyes.
"I'm not laughing." He crossed his arms over his chest, his girlfriend slapped him on the head. "Ow! What?"
"Leave your sister alone." Ali scolded him. "Don't worry Kat, you look hot. Go have fun."
"Thanks Ali, you're the best sister-in-law!" Kat smiled at her. Someone knocked at the door and Tyler went to answer it.
"I'll get it." He spoke, he opened the door to reveal Izzy. "Kat, your evil twin is here!" As he let her in.
"Nice to see you too, Ty." Izzy remarked sarcastically. Everyone would call them the 'evil twins' because they would get into trouble together since Junior High and they were pretty much inseparable.
"Hey, Iz." Kat walked over to her best friend and admired her outfit. "You look like you're going to break a few hearts."
"Me? You look absolutely smashing!" Izzy squealed.
"I know right?" Tyler joined them faking a girly voice, Kat just slapped him on the arm. "No violence!"
"Then stop being your douchey-self." Kat hissed. "Anyways, we need to get going."
"Hey! If someone bothers you at the club, just call me or Tyler and I'll handle the asshole." James told her.
"Thanks, but I can take care of myself, I can kick your and Tyler's ass-"
"No, you can't. I let you because I'm a good brother." Tyler cut her off.
"Whatever. See ya." Kat and Izzy walked out of the house.
When Kat and Izzy arrived at the club, they were shocked to see that was absolutely packed. They didn't even know how they managed to get in so quickly, their friends were waiting for them at the bar so they walked over to them.
"Hey guys!" Izzy spoke loudly over the music. Trevor, Jason, Kristen and Lily were their friends from college and some of them were even in Kat's class.
"OMG, you look gorge!" Lily gushed as she looked over at Kat.
"Thanks, Lil. You too." Kat leaned over to speak to her. "So what are we drinking?"
"I like where your heading..." Jason smirked. "I thought maybe some tequila to start."
"Then tequila it is!" Izzy settled. The guys proceeded to get the drinks as the girls quickly made their way over to the dancefloor. The song 'Feel So Close' from Calvin Harris was blasting from the speakers. They began to move their bodies to the beat of the music as everyone was having a pretty good time.
Suddenly the DJ interrupted the music and everyone to began to boo, they were really enjoying the music.
"Sorry guys, but just letting you know that we will have a special show from a band that is going to play for you!" The DJ announced. "So, I'm just going to put one more song and then we're going to give it up for this mystery band."
Everyone hollered and clapped their hands ablaze and the DJ changed to Swedish House Mafia 'Don't You Worry Child'
"Do you know who is this mystery band?" Kat screamed over to Izzy.
"I have no idea." Izzy shook her head. "Hey, let's get a drink." Kat nodded and went with her friend to the bar and went to grab the drinks that the guys had ordered.
"So, Kat have you heard from Rob?" Trevor questioned.
"Hum, he told me that maybe he was going to come here later." She told him in his ear. Trevor was one of quarterbacks of the football team and Rob was the captain, he has been skipping even football practice.
She turned to talk to Izzy but to her surprise she wasn't there anymore, Kat looked around the club and saw her dancing with a guy. She chuckled a little, that girl certainly wastes no time.
The DJ stopped the music again and grabbed the mic so he could speak.
"It's time to welcome the band, so are you ready?" The DJ hollered and everyone screamed 'yes'. Kat went to the dancefloor with her friends as she was very curious to see who is this mystery band.
"Miss me?" A husky voice whispered in her ear, she quickly turned around and saw her boyfriend Robert smiling at her.
"Rob! You're here." She put her arms around his neck and held him close as he returned the hug.
"I told you I would be here." He grinned. Even though was pretty dark, Kat could see his red puffy eyes that were dilated.
"Rob? Are you high?" She creased her eyebrows.
"What? No! I just haven't been sleeping lately." He dismissed. But she didn't look convinced as she continued to stare at him. "Come on, Kat! You know me... Do I look like I do drugs?"
She was about to answer but then he grabbed her hand and pulled further into the crowd.
"Come on, I'm curious to see who is this mystery band."
She decided that she would drop the subject for now as she looked over at the stage.
"Give it up for Maroon 5!" The DJ announced on the mic. And Kat's world suddenly stopped as she heard the DJ announce the mystery band. Everyone cheered excitedly as Kat continued frozen to her spot.
"Kat? Are you ok?" Rob looked over at her.
"I'm fine." She answered without looking at him, she saw Adam walking on the stage with his band and she immediatly wanted to leave. "Look, I'm feeling a little tired, let's go outside for a bit."
"Are you sure? You seemed perfectly fine 5 minutes ago." He cocked an eyebrow. "Let's listen to the band first, I thought you liked Maroon 5."
And she did, but that wasn't the point. Her karma was on stage and she suddenly felt very afraid, she prayed to God that he wouldn't notice her.
"How you're doing tonight, kids?" Adam spoke on the mic and everyone cheered. "So, we are Maroon 5 and this is Moves Like Jagger."
The club went wild and Kat saw from the corner of her eye Izzy giving her a look.
"Help me." Kat mouthed to her friend and Izzy mouthed back "How?"
The music began to play and Adam did that little move with his hips that made all the girls go crazy.
Oh Oooh
Just shoot for the stars if it feels right
Then aim for my heart if you feel like
Take me away and make it okay
I swear I'll behave
Adam was dancing around the stage and then he took one look at the crowd and his eyes stopped on her. Shit. She was screwed. He just gave her a cocky grin and continued to sing.
You wanted control, so we waited
I put on a show, now I make it
You say I'm a kid, my ego is big
I don't give a shit
And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue and I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk and I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moooooves like Jagger
"I'm going to grab a drink from the bar." She told Rob and he nodded his head. She quickly went to the bar and ordered some strong Vodka, she would need it to survive.
Maybe it's hard when you feel like you're broken and scarred Nothing feels right But when you're with me, I'll make you believe That I've got the key
Izzy walked over to her and squeezed her hand for support, Kat just lowered her head.
"It's not possible that he keeps showing up out of nowhere." She put her hands on her face.
"Do you want to leave?" Izzy questioned.
"No. I'm not going to run it will be more suspicious." Kat told her firmly.
"Don't let him ruin your night." She grabbed her hand, and Kat looked down and smiled.
"Thanks, Iz." Kat breathed.
So get in the car, we can ride it
Wherever you want, get inside it
And you wanna steer, but I'm shifting gears
I'll take it from here
And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue and
I'll know you Kiss me 'til you're drunk and
I'll show you All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moooooves like Jagger
The two girls walked back to the dancefloor, Kat stood next to Rob again and grabbed his hand.
"Let's dance." She grinned as she put her arms around his neck and they danced to the music.
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes and
I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moooooves like Jagger
Adam noticed that Kat was dancing with some guy on the dancefloor and he immediatly felt jealous, he was probably the boyfriend.
The DJ played Christina's part and everyone sang along with the lyrics and when the song ended, everyone cheered and clapped their hands. Adam thanked the crowd and he searched for her face in the crowd and when he finally found it, he grinned at her. She just continued to clap while she put her poker face so she couldn't show any emotion.
"Hey, Kat... I need, uh, to get going." Rob trailed off awkwardly.
"What? Why? Is it your mom?" Kat put her hand on the back of his neck.
"Yeah, I just came to spend some time with you, but I have to go back to my house..." He cleared his voice.
"Rob, are you sure that everything is alright? Is there something you're not telling me?" She questioned.
"Why are you being so suspicious all of the sudden?" He snapped. "I told you, everything is fine!" She hust looked at him in shock and nodded her head in understandement.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap at you, I'm just on edge, I guess." He sighed. "I'll call you when I get home."
"Ok." She nodded, he put his hand around her waist and kissed her lips softly. She kissed him back but it felt very wrong, their kiss lacked of something that she couldn't explain. He pulled away and caressed her face and turned to walk away.
Kat knew that something was wrong with him, he wasn't the same person that she met two years ago. Not wanting to think about it, she went to the bar and ordered another shot of tequila.
"Kat, are you ok?" Izzy sat next to her.
"Something is up with Rob but he won't tell me what... I feel like, I'm losing him." Kat had tears in her eyes.
"Hey baby girl, don't cry. You have to hear this once and for all." Izzy told her. "You need to move on, Kat. You are not happy with him anymore and that is changing you, can't you see it?"
"Izzy! I love him." Kat turned abruptly to her.
"But are you in love with him?" She retorted. Kat didn't know how to answer that, she wanted to say yes but there was something on the back of her head saying that no, she wasn't in love with him, not anymore.
"I-I don't know. Things are not how they used to be." Kat looked down at her drink.
"You do know, you're just too scared to admit it." Izzy caressed her shoulder. She looked over from Kat's shoulder to see Adam walking over to them.
"Hot rockstar at 9'o clock." Izzy gave her a heads up and before she knew it, her friend was already gone.
Kat couldn't believe that Izzy would let her alone with Adam of all people right now.
"Not tonight. I don't want to deal with you." Kat replied once Adam sat next to her.
"I was just going to ask if you're ok, I saw you arguing with your boyfriend." He spoke up.
"Of course you did." She scoffed. "It isn't really your business."
"Kat, I know that you don't trust me and you think that I'm this arrogant asshole who's trying to get into your pants, but if you want to talk... I can be a very good listener." Adam offered.
Kat wouldn't still look at him and he got closer to her and grabbed her chin delictely and turned her head so she could face him.
"I don't know you well enough to spill my problems to you." She shook her head.
"Sometimes talking to a stranger it can be more liberator than talking to a friend." He told her. "Come outside with me."
Kat just raised her eyebrows and gave him a look saying 'hell no' and he chuckled a little bit.
"I promise, I'll behave." He told her seriously. She pondered for a moment and gave in, he wouldn't try anything, she hoped.
"Any funny business, I'll kick your ass. I have two brothers, so believe me when I say that I will kick you where it hurts." Kat looked at him.
"I believe you, and I wouldn't dream of doing anything funny." He put his hands on the air and she cracked a smile, he was happy that he could make her smile even if it was for a second.
They walked outside together and ignored the looks that everyone was giving them, this was probably going to be all over Perez tomorrow.
There was a balcony with a great view of L.A, they walked there as Kat had her hands around her arms.
"Are you cold?" He questioned, he was about to give her his leather jacket but she stopped him.
"I'm fine." She told him. "What are the chances, this is the third time that we cross paths."
"Maybe destiny is trying to tell us something." He teased, she shot him a look and he smiled. "I have to know this, why are you going into so much trouble with this guy when obviously he isn't giving you the time of the day."
"You wouldn't understand." She shook her head.
"Try me." He remarked. She sighed as she closed her eyes for a moment.
"When I met him, he was so different from the other guys and we always had this strong connection and he always the only one who could really understand me besides Izzy." Kat replied.
"Izzy is the blonde girl with green eyes, right?" He questioned and she nodded. "So, what seems to be the problem?"
"That's just it. I don't know, we don't talk anymore, and I have this feeling that he's hiding something from me." Kat looked across the buildings.
Adam put both of his hands on her face and turned her to him as he gazed into her radiant blue eyes.
"You are so beautiful." He whispered and she tried to look away but he wouldn't let her.
"Adam-"
"No, I'm serious. You have this sparkle that no other girl has and that is something that is rare. I won't lie that what drew me in was your looks but now I can see that there is so much more than your obvious beauty." He continued. "And it pisses me off that dick has no idea how lucky he is to have such a wonderful girlfriend like you, because if you were mine... I would make sure to show you how lucky I would be to have you by my side and I would give you the world."
"You're wasting your time on me." She put her hands on his.
"No, I'm not." He shook his head. "You can't deny that there is obviously a chemistry between us."
"I won't leave him just because I'm attracted to you." Kat told him.
Adam just grinned like a mad men and she cursed under her breath as she realized that she just admitted that she felt something for him.
"You know what? Just forget it-"
"Don't run away from your true feelings, it'll catch up with you." Adam told her. Kat just moved away from him and walked back into the club as she started to breathe heavily. She tried to spot Izzy but she couldn't see or hear anything besides the loud music.
"Dance with me." Adam whispered in her ear and she jolted as she turned to look at him.
"No, leave me alone once and for all." She turned to walk away but he grabbed her arm.
"Just one dance, and I'll back off." He breathed in her neck. "For now."
She was about to protest again but he just slipped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer to him. And the song 'Too Close' from Alex Care began to play.
Kat began to melt into his arms as she put her arms around his neck and he smiled against hers. They began to grind as Adam gripped her hips and she held into his shirt and he kissed her neck, then he spoon her around and pulled her again and her back slammed against his chest and he ran his hands down to her smooth and toned legs.
She quickly pulled away as she turned to face him, "I guess that is enough of foreplay for one day, don't you think?"
He just stood there shocked as he was trying to process what happened, this girl is going to be death of him.
She turned to walk away and Adam waited for a moment and went after her.
"Let me give you a ride home." He said behind her.
"You said you would back off, for now." Kat stopped and turned to him. "Keep your promises, Levine." When he didn't say anything in return she walked away and went searching for her best friend.
Kat knew that this game that she was playing with Adam could only backfire but it has been a very long time since she felt that rush and adrenaline, knowing that the chase made her excited and she hated to admit but Adam made her feel all that. She was almost going to give in and kiss him but she remembered that she is not that easy and he would have to sweat a lot more.
And now she knew what was missing in the kiss that Rob gave her, she felt right now with Adam. It was passion and desire.
So, tell me what you think :), and one more thing... The person who portrays Kat is now Kaya Scodelario, you can see it in my profile!
