CHAPTER 4

In the hotel room, Tj and Celia are pre-gaming before hitting the clubs. " I am so not carrying you guys back to your hotel rooms, so you guys better cool it with the shots" Marvy, the mum of the group, cautioned. " yea, yea mummy what ever you say" Celia and Tj replied giggling , it wasn't their fault she decided to be the DD tonight. Tj was going to dance, drink and forget that gorgeous face that'd been stuck in her head all day . A chime on her phone signalled that their ride was here. "OK ladies let's move out" Tj exclaimed with excitement and it, seemed she was a bit tipsy.

In the car there was a lot of singing and giggling , the girls were ready for a wild night and ready to get lucky. The moment Tj and her friends stepped into the club, they were hit with a wave of energy. The music was pounding, the lights were flashing, and the people were dancing. The club was packed, but Tj and her friends didn't care. They were ready to have the time of their lives.

They headed to the bar, where they ordered drinks and surveyed the scene. It was like a sex scene but everyone had their clothes on , well almost everyone , there was a guy with his shirt off dancing on one of the tables in the corner. Either way, the energy was infectious and after a line of shots, the girls moved to the dance floor, first dancing with each other until Tj felt someone cut in and gripped her body with him grinding against her behind . It was a very uncomfortable feeling, so she tried moving away, but the strong hands gripped her to him and whispered drunkly in her ear "Chuminachwodo gwaenchana". The only word Tj understood was 'gwaenchana' and she was definitely not it, so she stomped on his toes , elbow to his face , a quick spin and finally knee to his balls. He dropped like a sack of potatoes , Tj was so glad she took self-defence classes. And with gusto she was off to the bar in need of a drink. Wow, men were the same everywhere, Tj thought.

" Hello , I just want to say, you were amazing at what you just did and also its nice to see you again " a deep baritone voice spoke next to Tj as she was handed her drink by the bartender, facing the stranger, she recognised him as the hotty she bumped into in front of the restaurant. " hello , I'm Tejiribut everyone calls me Tj " Tj spoke will holding out her hand , he grasped her hand lightly and introduced himself " hi Tj , I am Dae-Hyun , and I would really like to buy you a drink". With a blush, Tj agreed and he called the bartender's attention , ordering her a cocktail.

Tj and Dae-hyun continued talking, almost pressed up to each other so they could hear one another as the music was loud. After a few more drinks, they moved to the dance floor . At first, there was a bit of space between them, until someone bumped into Tj pushing her into Dae-Hyun's arms. " Are you alright?" he spoke in her ear and Tj shivered at the instant electricity she felt at the vibration of his voice, with her back turned to him she said nothing but continued dancing, grinding against his front.

All the grinding was getting Tj hot and she could feel that Dae-hyun wasn't unaffected. With a spin, she faced him and they were plastered chest to chest. Well, she had to lean on her tippy toes and he had to bend to reach her, but that was all semantics. Tj was so into this man she didn't hear her name although it could also be the club music. Anyway, as Tj was about to get her kiss, Marvy stepped up to them and tapped Tjhurriedly looking worried " Tj , sorry to interrupt but Celia doesn't look so good", leaning to whisper to Tj " I think her drink was roofied", Marvy said .

"Where is she?" Tj replied, worriedly.

" I already got her in the car but I came to let you know that we are leaving. Sorry for the interruption again" replied Marvy

Tj nodded before turning to face Dae-Hyun. " Well I have to leave but I had a great time, so here's my snap", bringing out her phone, she waited for him to scan her code , gave him a kiss on the cheek and left to go take care of her friend.

She was like a storm breezing in and turning Dae-Hyun's mind upside-down. Dae-Hyun was still in shock when he felt a firm grip on his shoulder . The hand belonged to Seo-joon , Dae-Hyun's best friend who he forgot when he ran into Tj at the bar.

"Nega uri sureul saogetttago haetjjana geurigo naneun karamelpoktanjureul jumunhan jogeun opjjiman chakadagohwakssinhae" (you said you were going to get our drinks , and I am very sure that I never ordered a caramel bombshell but nice) Seo joon teased.

With a groan, Dae-Hyun replied "nae jalmosi aniya geunyangnomu maeryokjjogiosso" (it's not my fault, okay? She was just so damn attractive)

Seo-joon laughed at his reply, pushing him to the VIP section where their other friends waited for them.

Tj groaned as she opened her eyes, the light streaming in through the window blinding her. She felt like she had a herd of elephants dancing on her head, and her mouth was drier than the Sahara Desert. She was definitely paying for the night before.

She turned to her friends, who were all sprawled out on the beds and floor, looking just as rough as she felt. "Oh god," she said, "we're never drinking again." The room erupted in groans and laughter.

Tj handed the bottle of ibuprofen to Celia, who took it gratefully. "You're a lifesaver," she said, downing two pills with a swig of water.

Getting up, TJ stumbled to her bag where she had kept a bottle of ibuprofen, handing it to Marvy.

"I'm no savior," Tj said, "I'm just trying to save our lives."

"Too true," said Celia, shaking her head. "That was one hell of a night."

Tj nodded. "I have no idea how we're going to function today," she said, wincing as she stood up.

Marvy snorted at the two of them, basking in the fact that she didn't drink last night and was fit as an ox this morning. " I told you guys to take it easy, but onto more serious matters, Celia, who the heck did you take drinks from?"

"Erm, I honestly can't remember, I just remember throwing back more shots " Celia responded " You had us worried last night, it seemed as if your drink was roofied. Girl, you need to be careful", Tj advised.

"I'm sorry guys, I just wanted to let loose. I just needed a break, you know." Celia replied, "It's okay boo we are here for you, when you need to talk, just let us know ,okay?" Marvy advised, and Celia nodded her head in understanding. Marvy turned to TJ, staring at her, "So, Tj tell us about that tall glass of water you had all up on you last night". And with that the seriousness left the atmosphere, there was a lot of giggling as Tj recalled the events from last night.
