answers.
“I’ve never seen a black rose before,” I observe.
“Well that’s because they only grow in the Amber Evers,” he states.
Geoff comes back downstairs a moment later still grinning.
“Whoa Laytah, you sure changed fast. I like that look. Apparently being in a coma...uh...opened your mind?” he laughs.
I’m about to ask what the hell he’s talking about when I look down and realize I’m suddenly wearing a skimpy black dress. Just the kind that one would wear clubbing. Not I, I’m a more conservative person. I know exactly who to blame for my wardrobe selection, the culprit is the same man that had dressed me in skimpy clothes last time. Damon.
I turn and scowl at him and notice he’s chugging down the rest of the flask. God, is he an alcoholic?
“Got anymore vodka before we hit the road, mate?” Damon asks Geoff who lights up and opens the cupboard beneath the sink.
“Tons, which club are we headed to?” Geoff asks while handing Damon a bottle of vodka.
To my surprise Damon opens the bottle right up and takes a few good chugs as if its water and he’s dehydrated. Geoff looks as surprised as I do and sets the shot glass he’s pulled from the cupboard for Damon on the counter and says. “Guess you won’t be needing this.”
“How about Pulse? I’ve never been there.” I ask.
Geoff shrugs. “Me neither…obviously. I’m down. You good with that man?”
“Whatever you guys want.” Damon nods and finally puts the cap back on the bottle of vodka. I also notice him put his sunglasses back on. I hope he isn’t going to wear those to the club. He’ll look like an idiot wearing sunglasses in the dark.
“Sweet, I’ll drive. I can leave my car there overnight.” Geoff says and grabs his keys off the counter.
“I call shotgun!” I shout and race for the door.
Chapter 6
When we arrive at the club it’s dark, loud, and as usual chaotic. Thankfully Damon manages to glamour me up an ID since I didn’t bring mine. The colorful lights beam against the walls to the bass and the music blasts. People are screaming and rubbing up against each other. It’s a little more intense than D10 but nothing I haven’t seen before in the clubs in Philly.
As soon as we walk in Damon and Geoff both begin grinning. Men. I’m sure they were both in absolute awe over the hundreds of half-naked girls walking around.
I lead them over to the bar and order a round of vodka shots since that seems to be the drink of choice for both these guys. Only yesterday I was terrified of this strange man, actually I shot him, I’d tried to kill him. And it’s pretty screwed that I shot and tried to kill him and then only hours later I had sex with the same man. What is wrong with me? Had he glamoured me into it all along? Had he made it so it seemed like it was my choice but I actually had no say in it at all? Had I really wanted to have sex with him? Or had he made me feel like I wanted to? I look at him now and even at this moment, I would do it again. I mean what women wouldn’t want to have sex with him. I come to the explanation that I’d had such a terrible day yesterday, that I’d just needed something to make it a little better. It just had to come in the form of having sex with a guy that had just told me that I wasn’t human and I’d shot. I try and wrap my mind around the last few days but still can’t it still feels like I’m still dreaming though now I’m sure I’m not.
“Hey, I’m gonna go find a babe!” Geoff yells over the music to me and Damon.
I nod that I heard him and he disappears into the crowd.
Damon orders another shot and then we get out of the way of the bar and go to find a better place to stand. I assume all the money he suddenly has is some sort of magic trick like the rose and the ID and my outfit. At least I hope so. I hope he didn’t find more of my money to spend.
We end
