13 A Round Of Tequila.

Emily Smith

So Zack messaged me? Asked me to save him as daddy? What a dumbass.

I wonder where he got my number from, probably asked Jess. I'm not complaining though, maybe now that he has my number I won't get ghosted.

This boy really is taking over my head.

We ended up chatting till about 3am, I decided to call it a night and go to sleep. I literally had to force myself to sleep, I didn't wanna stop chatting to him but I knew if I pulled an all nighter it wouldn't work in my favour, at all. Zack is such a clown, quite flirtatious too.

I'm liking it more than I'd like to admit.

Today I have only 2 classes and for that I am grateful, I feel sleep deprived. I'm definitely taking a nap once I get back to the dorm, there's no way I'm not doing just that.

Jess wasn't in class today and neither was Chad, they probably stayed together for the night. I'm honestly not sure what's going on there, she already seems smitten with him but maybe they're just you know... Friends with benefits.

I just hope she knows what she's getting herself into, I don't want to see pretty much my only friend here hurt.

Alex was still asleep when I left this morning, his classes are most probably later than mine. I haven't really gotten to spend time with him, maybe we could do something together tonight.

I take it back, I wish I didn't have classes at all! Yes it was only 2 classes but it was literally draining. God Econ sucks and the semester only started.

Feeling exhausted I unlock my dorm room door and make a run for my bed, collapsing on the almost comfortable mattress "oh how I longed for this since I got up this morning." I sigh feeling content in my current position, "hey girl!" Alex says giving me a near heart attack "Jesus Alex! Hi." he laughs at my frightend expression "Sorry, I really didn't mean to scare you." we share a nervous laugh, "No it's fine, i wasn't expecting you back so early." he nods.

"Uhm, I wanted to know if you maybe uhm...wanna hang out tonight? If you're busy or anything I totally get it." I clear my throat as it suddenly became scratchy. "Yeah sure, I was actually gonna ask if you wanna go for drinks tonight but you beat me to it." he smiles politely. "Cool I'm gonna take a nap first because I'm way too exhausted and seeing that we're going for drinks I need my energy." "you do that sis, we'll leave here around 7 then, set your alarm bitch." we both laugh at this "Ok fine jeez I will!" I playfully roll my eyes, he flips me off before laying down and turning his back to me.

I set my alarm for 5:30pm so I have two and a half hours to sleep, thank God.

I close my eyes and soon enough my thoughts drifted and the darkness took over.

Beep beep beep

I stretch out an arm to turn my alarm off before getting up. I look over at Alex to see him sleeping, I decide against waking him up and letting him sleep for a bit longer. I really needed that sleep, I feel good.

Grabbing my towel and shower essentials? I think you can call them that? Whatever.

I wash my hair and shave my entire body...you know rather safe than sorry.

When I get back from my amazing shower I check the time to see that it's 6:00pm so I decide to wake Alex up. "Alex, wake up." I shake his arm a bit hoping he'll wake up, "Alexander!" he jolts awake and looks at me. "I'm up!" I snort before walking over to my side " you have an hour to get ready." he yawns as he stretches his arms "cool, what're you gonna wear?"

shit! I haven't thought about that, I still have hair to do and I haven't even gotten an outfit picked out! " I have absolutely no idea! Help me?" I hit Alex with the puppy eyes so he can't say no to me " Fine, but on one condition, you wear what I give you, no complaints." he gives me a stern look "Yes sir." he laughs before distroying my entire closet.

Finally done with my hair, dressed and a small amount of makeup added to my face, I don't recognize myself. I look...hot.

Although what Alex picked out for me isn't something I'd pick for myself, I have to admit I'm not entirely against it.

He chose a mini red satin dress my mom bought for me one Christmas with red lace up heels I wore for my senior prom.

It feels like forever ago.

After touching up a few things we head out. Since we're going out to drink we decided to Uber as we cannot drive if we're drunk.

"So where are you headed to for the night?" I turn to Alex excitedly " We're going to a club not too far off campus." he focuses on the road as I nod and turn back to face the front.

A few minutes later we pull up at the club, the line is extremely long "Alex it's going to take us forever to get in there." I sigh "Don't worry darling, I know people here, we don't stand in lines." he smirks before getting out, I do the same after thanking the driver.

We walk over to the entrance where Alex whispers something in the bouncers ear, he let's us in and like Alex said, we don't stand in lines.

Let's get this night started.

We walk over to the bar, I order a Cosmopolitan, Alex orders a Whiskey on the rocks and a round of Tequila shots. He really isn't wasting any time. We down the Tequila shots with some lemon and salt before walking off to the dance floor with our drinks.

Swaying my hips to the beat I feel hands fall on my waist. I don't mind it as we're at a club and I'm here to have fun so I dance on. I turn around to face the person only to find a heavenly looking man. God is he hot!

He's body towering over mine as if I don't have high heels on, his piercing green eyes boring into mine. He has jet black hair with a light stubble on his face.

Holy shit, he's like a Greek God.

I throw my free hand around his neck as he moves my hips with his.

After some time of dancing with this God sent of a man we head back to the bar for another drink. "You got some moves gorgeous." he flashes a toothy smile showing off his perfect pearly teeth "You're not so bad yourself handsome." I flirt back. "Mind telling me your name or are we going to recreate Cinderella and have me look around the entire town for you?" I can't help but laugh "It's Emma." I look away signaling for the barman to come over, "Nice to meet you Emma, I'm Kai."

he grins shooting a hand out for me to shake, I smile taking his hand shaking it lightly before letting go. " What can I get you two?" "I'll have Cosmopolitan" "I'll have a whiskey and a round of tequila shots, make it a vodka for the lady." the barman nods, I shove Kai as he gives me a wink "I was fine with what I ordered you know" "I bet you were but you should have a vodka rather plus drinks on me" I sigh in defeat before looking down shyly.

We down the shots and our drinks before returning to the dance floor, Kai is really fun. I am sure as hell tipsy but who cares, I'm having a blast!

We grind to the beat, I lean back into his chest feeling a bit out of breath "I'm gonna hit the ladies room!" I shout over the loud music, "Cool, you know where to find me when you get back." he whispers in my ear sending chills down my spine.

Just my luck that there's an insanely long que to use the bathroom, I sigh in annoyance before walking off. I haven't seen Alex in a bit, I should find him.

I see Alex sitting at the bar talking to some guy, I decide to head over "Alexxxxxx, how you buddy?" I throw a arm around his shoulder "all good, how are you Ms Barbie?" I snicker " Euphoric." I lean my head on his shoulder as he tells he's undeniably handsome friend something "Hey let's go dance." I nod in agreement before standing up straight, I turn to head for the dance floor but I freeze.

Am I seeing correctly?

Zack.

Kissing some blonde girl.

What the fuck?

Anger and hurt rises in my throat but I push it down before turning back to Alex.

He notices my change of mood and looks in the direction I was looking before forming an 'o' shape with his mouth.

Before he can say anything I head to the bar ordering two rounds of Tequila and downing one round alone.

"Lets get fucked up!" I shout before handing Alex a shot.

Time to have some fun.
