Lead the way

Clubbing was one of my favourite hobbies. I am a crowd person, and where would you get an engaging crowd aside from a club? And trust me, after a hectic day, going for clubbing was one of my stress relive ritual.

I was enjoying among the crowd and when I say that I was having fun, it means I was stranded in an overcrowded club.

Today was the last night of my vacation. I know we all tend to be sad when the vacation ends, I mean common, who wants to face the reality?

For me, vacations are my escape from reality and I had no intention of letting the last night of my vacation go waste and sink in the Pacific Ocean.

I wasn't alone. Okay I was kind of alone at the moment because the company that I brought tonight with me, was no where around.

Jess was very busy with on the dancefloor with someone.

If you are wondering wno’s Jessica then let me answer, Jess was my sister, the elder one. Like me Jessica is also a crowd person and this was her crowd.

But bringing Jessica to the vacation was not the part of my trip. I brought Jess for the vacation because neither my mother nor my best friends were available and therefore like the vagabond which me and my sister were, we decided to stick together and have a phenomenal trip.

But now I am regretting it.

You were supposed to keep me company Jess, not ditch me with Daniel so that you can swing your body like a monkey on the dancefloor.

Daniel? He worked as a bartender. Daniel, the wicked one, began flirting with me the moment I sat down on the barstool. But soon his jokes and flirtation became stale, and I couldn't even tell him that. Because in a pub, you don't want to be rude to the bartender.

As I mentioned earlier, the club was a little more than usual overcrowded so was the bar so Daniel began to attend other customers.

Feeling relieved now that I was out of his grasp, I decided to take a look at my surroundings.

I darted my eyes through the dance floor, scanning the area, damn I wish I could go and dance my heart out in there.

Jessica was dancing with somebody unknown, meanwhile here I was sitting alone like a sore thumb.

Damn it, I didn't come here to stand out like a sore thumb. Time to level up my clubbing skills.

There was no one who particularly held a candle to my interest and I was starting to lose my patience.

Maybe I should head for the hotel, not a bad idea ...' I was not even done with my own thoughts when my eyes landed on him.

In that one moment, it felt like the buzz around me go stand still. Every other person in the room started to fade by his impactful presence.

The dull surroundings didn't feel so boring anymore since the moment I saw this man.

He walked into the room with utter confidence that complemented his charisma.

His gaze swept across the room and then it happened.

He was looking at me.

I felt myself writhe with anticipation under his piercing gaze.

He looked taller than the crowd surrounding me. It was evident that he was far too blessed in the genetics department than the average crowd. His casual clothes complemented his Hollywood worthy look.

I couldn't help myself from checking him up, and the results were satisfactory.

And then I saw him smirking.

Shit! Did he just smirk at me?

No, erase that, did he just catch me in my act?

Guilty!

Or maybe not.

As he entered into the room, every woman’s eyes were fixed  on him. Trust me pals, I know the feeling. I wondered how it would feel if I could dance with him on the floor.

Woah, I need to get my thoughts under control, at least for now.

He crossed the room towards me, making me nervous but in a good way.

Not knowing what to do, I gulped down a tequila shot from the bar.

"Do you mind if I join?" I heard him say.

That heart melting British accent of his made me swoon for life. He was hot, well mannered (at least for now), got an amazing heart melting accent.

This man was too extraordinary to be a human.

"I don't, Mr Greek God."

Holy shit!

Is it possible that I just said that out loud? Jeez! I need to get a handle on things.

He appeared to be surprised by my sudden confession.

“I am no Greek God but you can call me Sebastian.”

Even his name sounded so refined and expensive.

"Sebastian," I uttered looking into his eyes.

"Aren't you going to tell me your name?" He asked playfully.

"Christina."

"Christina." He said, testing how my name sounded rolled out from his tongue.

To be honest I really loved the way my name sounded coming out from him.

"You have got a beautiful name, that matches perfectly to your astounding beauty, I must say."

Honestly, I don’t think I was that beautiful. I mean, I considered myself pretty, yes! But Jessica, my elder sister, was far more blessed in the beauty gene department than me.

I got my mother’s features the most. At five feet six, I got my mother’s heart-shaped facial features with plump lips and pale complexion, but I got my hazel eyes and caramel straight hair from my too busy, cheating and liar of the decade father.

You bet I have some daddy issues.

But when Sebastian called me beautiful, it made me feel maybe that I am.

 I was having a great time with him by my side. Long gone was my sour mood. I was really feeling there's a connection happening between me and him.

"Thank you, Sebastian," I added, "And you've got quite a marvelous name for yourself.”

“Let me fill that up for you.” Daniel reappeared to puncture our euphoria, offering me the drink that I never ordered. He purposefully brushed his hand with mine for more than a few seconds.

I gave Daniel a look that said 'Please, don't sabotage my plan to have Sebastian!'

I observed Sebastian, who was now sneering openly at Daniel while he kept giving me the puppy eyes.

Don't provoke the Alpha male here Daniel, he won't spare you.

Daniel got the hint but not before: he slipped a card into my palm. I turned over the card and saw a number scribbled.

Daniel made a gesture at me to call him while Sebastian was giving him a murderous stare.

Damn the testosteron rush and tension was tangible here.

I threw the card on the floor, bidding my silent sayonara to both the card and Daniel.

"Dance with me?" I asked Sebastian, gesturing towards the dance floor.

"Thought you would never ask"

"Lead the way, Handsome."
