"Everything ok?" He stands behind me and I turn reluctantly
"No not really" I admit embarrassingly "the other day when I messaged you I was very drunk, too drunk to function" he stares at me confused as I continue to babble "look I didn't mean to do it, I got drunk and it got out of hand"
"The whole time we spoke?" "I was drunk"
"Wow"
"I'm sorry ok it's just that I really like you and I couldn't muster up the courage to talk to you so my friend and I got really drunk and I guess it happened" as I explain he smiles "what? Why are you smiling?"
"You like me?" he asks with a smile still on his face "No!" I reply "I really like you" I smile back
"I like you too. I don't care that you were drunk if you're still up for it I'd love to go on our date."
I smile at him saying he likes me too "I'd love that too I just wish I wasn't drunk when we spoke so I could remember what we talked about"
"Just read the messages"
"Right" we smile at each other and then comes in a wave of silence "I'll see you later ok?"
"Ye-yeah" I stutter "I'll text you my address"
He smiles about to walk away "you already did"
Hysterically laughing "right!" He's fully gone "of course I did" I hate drunk me.
I walk away trying to find Jules, I swear she gets me in so many messes and never helps me out of any of them. "How'd it go?" She sneaks up behind me
"Jesus!" I jump getting startled "you scared me, Jules"
"Yeah don't be a bitch. How'd talking to him go?" We continue to walk
"I told him the truth, and he still wants to go out. Does that mean anything?" "It means he likes you!"
"Or he needs a funny story to tell his friends"
"Either way you two are going out. When is that by the way?" "Tonight"
"TONIGHT?!" She yells surprised and I nod "shit"
"I know. I'm fucked."
We leave the gym and head straight to my apartment. Rushing in "where do I start" "Ok you shower and I'll pick an outfit"
"alright but nothing too flashy"
"Flashy? You insult me Crim" I run to the shower and take a fast one. He'll be here in about an hour and I need to shave. I take care of everything and walk out to Jules with my towel around my waist "damn Crim" she cries out "if we weren't friends I'd hit that" she smacks my butt
"I'm gay remember"
"Details" we laugh and she tosses me some clothes and I throw them on. "How much time left?" I ask as I put my clothes on
"Bout 30"
"Good I have time to do my hair" "And apply your make up" Jules jokes
"Funny" I reply as she laughs at her own joke. "He's here" she runs into my room
"Alright. Will you get the door when he rings" she nods and leaves
A few minutes later the doorbell rings, I can hear her talking to him. They stop and she yells "CRIMSON SOMEONE'S HERE FOR YOU" hate when she calls me Crimson
I walk out to a smiling Spencer who's eyes sparkle when he sees me "hi" I smile
He comes up to me "hi" and kisses me on the cheek. Damn, he looks so good "ready to go?" He whispers in my ear as he kissed my cheek
"Yes," I whisper back as his lips against my ear send shivers down my spine. "This is Jules by the way" "I know" he smiles "I always catch her staring at me when you guys are at the gym"
She laughs "nice to meet you too" "Jules we're gonna go"
"Be careful with him" she turns to Spencer "he's fragile" oh god
Spencer smiles "will do." We leave walking to his car "change of plans" we get in his car "instead of dinner and a movie I think we should go dancing"
"Dancing?"
"Yeah, I know this great club downtown. Are you up for it?" I'm not much of a dancer but I was not about to say no
"Let's go." We put on our seat belts and he drives away.
As he drives we get to know each other and I fall for him even more "I wish my life was as exciting as yours"
"Well we choose how we want to live" "Good looking and poetic"
He places his right hand on my thigh causing me to blush. We get to the club and he opens the passenger door for me "you're going to like it here" he locks his fingers into mine and pulls me along.
The closer we get to the club the louder the music gets "you come here often?" I ask as we walk up to the bouncer
"Only when I need to get away." We walk up to the bouncer and show our I.d and he lets us in. "I'll get us some drinks" he whispers in my ear. I watch the dance floor as the people dance, kiss and practically have sex with each other as the bass of the music beat louder and louder. He comes back and places his hand on my lower waist "here" he hands me a drink. I sip it
