The club

It was a lovely evening and I had wanted to go out with my close friends, we went to an LGBTQ+ club near my house that we often frequented. Ezra and Kai, (friends I've had since 9th grade) were walking ahead of us. I was walking further behind with one of my closest friends since 5th grade. our steps were in sync as the fresh floral breeze whisped past us. I took in a deep breath trying to inhale all the sweet air I could before it would go away. As I opened my eyes Isabelle was looking at me with what looked like wonder in her beautiful hazel eyes. "What?" I asked "Oh..... uh- nothing" It was obviously something because she immediately looked away with a faint blush on her cheeks and the tips of her ears. I love it when she blushes like that, it's the cutest thing. But I decided to move on.

When we got there It was full of people and colorful lights, Pride flags were hanging on the walls all around, and there were two floors The one upstairs had a balcony looking in on the dance floor with tables for people to chill and drink. I immediately headed toward the bar and ordered myself a Dark n' Stormy, It's my favorite drink. Dark n' Stormy although delicious has quite a lot of alcohol content, I forget every time. By 1:00 am I was DRUNK. I was stumbling and falling all over the place while trying to dance with my friends. This pretty girl walked up to me and I think we were flirting? but when I looked over at Isabelle I just wanted to be near her and completely forgot about the pretty girl. I told her I had to go and basically skipped over to Isabelle. "Isaaa, I missed you," I said drunkenly as I leaned on her side, she laughed and then hugged me. "you have had WAY too many drinks," she said as she brushed the hair out of my face. I leaned into it giving her hand a kiss, She blushed but tried to ignore what just happened. "Uhm so uh- how about I bring you back to our apartment so you can get some sleep" I looked up at her smiling "Mhmm- *hiccup*" She giggled and brought me to her car.

"Ezra and Kai already left, I think there were too many people there and Kai got anxious," Isabelle said as she put on my seat belt and went to the driver's side of the car. She sat down and pulled her seat belt on. I was jealous, why did the seat belt get to hug her and not me. I latched myself onto her and buried my face in her shirt. "Aaliya we have to go home and get to bed," she said while stroking my hair. "But I wanna snuggle with you," I said sounding all muffled while squeezing her tighter. She pulled me off of her gave me a kiss on the forehead and pushed me into my seat. Not right now, you need to get some sleep.
