Flirting with My Angel

Nicholai had no intention of going home alone. He planned to get drunk and pick up a girl to spend the night with. After a quick fuck he’d head to his best friend Jake's apartment, he could come and go as he pleased to his apartment.

As he entered the bar his attention was caught by a beautiful woman staring at the bartender like she was debating whether to order a drink or leave. Then a man approached her and sat next to her. Probably her boyfriend...

Nicholai sat three chairs away from the couple and ordered a glass of whiskey. He skimmed the bar, it was Thursday so not many people were around. So much for getting a fuck buddy, no one looked interesting enough to bed in this place. He had been on the bar for almost half an hour and his gaze kept back to wondering back on the couple near him. She has the same eyes like Amanda. He just got to the bar but his eyes seemed to be playing with him.

Then he noticed that the man was trying to kiss his girlfriend and she slapped him in the face. The man seemed shocked by the action and raised his hands to hit the girl. Immediately Nicholai stood up and grabbed the guy’s arm.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

"Mind your own business man. This is between me and the lady!" He said as he tried to rip Nicholai’s hands from his grip.

"I would if you would stop acting like an ass. Do not force your girlfriend to kiss you."

"His not my boyfriend." She informed him.

Upon hearing that, Nicholai released his grip from the man then his knuckles crushed to the man's jaw. He called security and asked them to escort the man out of his establishment.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes, thank you." Cassie replied shyly. "Join me..."

"Not here. Follow me..." he said and led her to one of the tables in the far end of the bar.

"So what are drinking?" He asked with a wink.

"Whatever you are drinking is fine…" she responded the bit her lower lip. She looked so tempting in that moment: like she was waiting for him to kiss her.

"I don't think so." He said, and then smiled at her so sweetly. "Stop biting your lips sweetheart. I might not be able to resist and try to kiss you like that douche bag that I had to get rid of." Nicholai ordered a bottle of whiskey and pinacolada for Cassie.

"Sorry, I'm just nervous. I don't normally do this." She stated nervously,

"Relax. I don't bite, unless you ask me to." He smirked and winked at her. "So what brought you here? I mean not that I'm complaining to be with your company. I'm just puzzled."

"This and that," She smiled back at him sweetly. The waiter placed their drink down and she immediately finished it off.

"Are you that thirsty or are you trying to get away from me? Are you okay?" He asked while pouring himself a drink.

"I… I’m kind of... contemplating. I don't normally do this." She was biting her bottom lip again. "I don't know how this work."

"Yes, I recall you saying that already." He chuckled while shaking his head. "What's his name?"

"Jonathan..." She realized what she said. To her shock she grabbed Nicholai's drink and drained the glass.

"So what did he do?" He poured another glass of whiskey and drank it immediately this time.

"Nothing, I don't really want to talk about it. How about you, what brings you here?"

"So you don't want to talk about what the douche did? That’s fine with me, angel."

"What did you call me?" He looked at him in disbelief. 

"As if, you didn't hear me." He replied smiling at her.

Nicholai and Cassie drunk for another thirty minutes; Cassie was wasted after three margaritas and two shots of tequila. She was a light weight and don't really drink often. She reached her limit at the bar earlier and that's two dirty martini.

"Seriously, angel, tell me what is a girl like you doing in a place like this." He held her hands and kissed the inside of her wrist.

"Looking for someone to fuck." She said while giggling.

"Really? I was also looking for one. Maybe we should go our separate ways to start hunting,"

"Or we can just stay here and see where this leads." She said suggestively and kissed his cheeks.

"Do not tempt me, angel, I might take your offer." He moved closer and touched the bottom of her lips.

"No one’s stopping you." She captured his lips for a few seconds. "Take me home with you."

"I can't. You’re drunk and you'll regret this in the morning."

"Okay, I'll go then." She kissed him on the lips again then left the bar.

Nicholai wasn't someone who preys on drunk women. She looked to drunk to even make it anywhere. She was already gone for 15 minutes when Nicholai decided to head home. He was about to open his car when he heard someone crying. He planned to ignore it but the person started throwing tantrums and yelling. He immediately recognized her voice and went to her. And what he saw melted his heart. She was sitting down on the side walk without any shoes on, a messy hair and her makeup smudged on her face due to the tears that were pouring down her eyes. She looked so damn helpless.

"Hey, angel, stop crying." He pulled her up and she hugged him tightly.

"I am a good person. How could he do that to me? I... I love him. He made me feel special. And he can't, he just can't." She was crying hysterically. 

"Sshhh. Stop it." He strokes her back to calm her down. After she calmed down, he guided her to his car and decided to drive her to place.

"Angel, please just get inside the car. So I can drive you home. Where do you live?" She was pushing him away and was refusing to enter his car. He hugged her to stop her from struggling then suddenly she threw up on him. Vomit covered both their jackets. He was so furious that he held her on her shoulder just to see she passed out. He removed his and her jacket and threw it on the trash.

Without thinking twice she brought her to his apartment. He left her to lie down on the sofa while he took a shower. He had no idea why she brought her to his apartment. He could have left her in a hotel or something. He wasn't thinking straight. When he came back to check on her, she found her stripping her clothes off. And the next event, led them to the encounter the next day...
