☺️

He kissed me. On the lips. He kissed me on the lips and I didn't do anything about it. I let it happen and my kiss was stolen by that ass. I was very angry at myself for not reacting quickly and pushing him away. The more I thought about it, I knew that I didn't want to push him away, his kiss was mind-numbing and his touch was electric.

He made me feel like I was on cloud nine, which was not possible since I had just met him about three weeks ago. I didn't know that man much, except that he knew Flynn and he was an amazing kisser. "Urge! Don't think about it!" I yelled loudly as I rolled on my bed.

I sat up quickly and walked to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I didn't have work today so I had the whole day to myself and I intend on forgetting about that...thing. I took a quick shower and got dressed because I was going out for a walk, then later I would meet some of my other friends. Yeah, I didn't make friends easily but I had some that were outside of my work. They were my drinking buddies. We weren't that close but we knew each other well. Parker doesn't know about them and if she did, she would be a drama queen about it.

I fished out my phone and quickly sent a text to the group chat.

:::::::::::::::::::::::

I chuckled and put my phone away before taking a deep breath of fresh morning air. I turned around and walked back home because I wanted to be lazy and not do anything until seven p.m where I get ready. It was almost noon and I had to make myself something to eat. I didn't like eating outside often because I don't know where the stuff came from, yeah I might be a bit of a germaphobe.

I unlocked the door and walked in. I took off my jacket and made my way to the bathroom to wash my hands. When I was done I went to the kitchen to cook. The moment I opened my fridge, I remembered that I needed to get grocery shopping soon. I took out the lettuce and some other leftover veggies to make a sandwich.

I smiled at my accomplishment and went to my living to sit and watch while I ate. It had been a long time since I've felt relaxed and free. It felt like I was finally able to breathe and I wasn't feeling down anymore. It was a new feeling and I loved it, I wish it could be like this all the time. Being free was something everyone wished for, but few only got it.

~••••~

It was around five pm when I got a text. It was an unknown number and it said: I miss you ❤️. What the hell? I quickly typed that the person probably got the wrong number. And the reply was, nope, your friend gave me the correct number. This is Zechariah, by the way. I turned off my phone and didn't reply.

I took a deep breath and saved his number, just in case he called me, and my dumbass would pick up the call if I didn't know the number.

Sat, Nov 9, 5:08 PM

I miss you ❤️

Sorry, wrong number.

Nah, your friend gave me the number.

This is Zechariah, by the way

Leave me alone.

Can't do that, babe😉

You are such a creep. Stop.

Don't call me babe.

Nah, I told you didn't I.

Also, I thought we made some

progress on that date.

What date?

Awww, u forgot.

It's okay, I'll just remind you.

I kissed you after our date, remember?

Fuck!

I hate you for that.

DON'T COME NEAR ME.

I can't promise anything.

I have to go now. Bye 👋🏼 😘

🖕😤

I was mad. Mad wasn't the word, I was furious. How dare he? But I didn't want to think about it now, I was going to have a good night and not think about anything for at least three hours. I smiled thinking about and went to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for the night. I didn't have time to think about him and his antics.

I looked at myself and smiled when I was satisfied with my look. I winked at myself before walking to get my wallet, keys, and phone. I quickly texted them that I was on my way before walking out the door and locking it behind me. Driving to Bliss was smooth and silent. The parking spot, however, wasn't so I had to drive around the block to find it.

When I did, I quickly parked my car and got out. I locked the doors and made my way to the line. "Lion!" I heard someone call my nickname. I turned around to see Kelvin, Henry, Jay, and Minori. Minori was the only girl in our group and she and Kelvin were a thing. "You're finally here, let's go in." Jay pulled my hand and I laughed as I followed them inside.

The club was owned by someone Henry was very close to so the bouncer would know him and let us in. "Can we go to the VIP section?" Minori asked over the loud music as she gave us puppy eyes.

Henry nodded and went to get the passes and drinks. "So, anything new?" Jay asked as we made over way to the VIP line.

"Nope, nothing new," I answered as I looked ahead. "Why?"

"Don't know, you just seem different," Minori spoke.

"How?" I asked looking at them.

"I don't know. You seem a bit happy and there's a glow in your eyes." Kelvin answered from behind us.

"Nonsense. I am just happy to see you guys." I grinned and they all rolled their eyes.

That's when Henry came back with the passes and drinks. Minori cheered as she rushed in to get us a table. We all followed and the rest of the night was filled with music, alcohol, and laughter. It had been a long time since I felt like I could feel this free. "Let's go dance!" Minori dragged me and Jay, who grabbed Henry and Kelvin.

We all went to the dance floor that was on the first floor. I almost tripped as I walked down the stairs. Luckily someone caught me and I thanked him before continuing my walk. The music was louder as we made it to the dance floor and space was crowded. We all squeezed in and started dancing. Everyone was lost in their own world and I closed my eyes to feel the music as I started moving.

When I opened my eyes, I thought I saw someone I knew, more specifically, I thought I saw Zechariah. I closed my eyes and looked away and then looked back in the same direction but I was sure it was him. He was talking to this shorter, slimmer guy who has his head down. "Excuse me," I spoke as I weaved my way through the crowd.

When I got closer I was positives it was him. My heart started beating faster and I thought I was going to suffocate from the heavy air and my heartbeat skipping. What the fuck? I thought as I looked away and took a deep breath. It must be the alcohol. Yeah, that must be it. I reasoned with myself.

I looked back and saw them hugging and I felt this rage inside me that I didn't know I had. I wanted to go over there and rip both of their heads off but I can't. He was mine, and I wasn't his. I had no right and I was the one who was playing hard to get, of course, he was going to give up on me and go after easy meat. And he said he was different. I thought and bitterly laughed to myself. Someone grabbed my shoulder and I looked over to see Kelvin looking at me concerned. "You good?" He spoke close to my ear and I nodded.

"Yeah, let's get drunk!" I yelled happily as I dragged him to the bar and ordered some heavy alcohol.

That night, I got pissed drunk and I didn't seem to care. It was all his fault anyway.
