Leo:Of course, it works. :)
Guess I'm going out again this weekend.I wonder if I'll run into Lucas again?
Chapter 2
Olive’s P.O.V.
The rest of the week flew by without a snag. I avoided Julius at all costs, taking alternative routes to classes and even being early to the classes we had in the same building. Leo hadn't texted me since Monday, and I was starting to think he'd forgotten about us going out today. I honestly wouldn't mind, as I'm sure he only invited me out of pity.
I could, thankfully, talk with minimal pain now. The swelling had gone down, and the stitches were slowly dissolving. I was grateful to have my voice back and be able to thank my advisor for pulling miracles and getting me out of Professor Dune's class. She got me into Professor Lewis' class, which was my last class for today.
Leo:Hey Olive. Can't wait to see you tonight! We're going to the tunnel nightclub in Manhattan. We're all meeting up outside the dorms if you wanna come with us. Otherwise, you can meet us there at 9.
Well shit, it seems he didn't forget.
Olive:Sounds like fun. See you there!
I sighed, pushing away the insecurities trying to brew inside me. I sat my phone down and focused on the lecture. Professor Lewis was a fabulous teacher, so much better than Professor Dune. She explained things well and encouraged questions. I found her class refreshing and 100 times better than Dunes.
"So where are we going tonight?" Hailey asked, having waited for me outside my class. We had class in the same building at the same time today.
"The tunnel nightclub. Have you been there before?"
"Are you kidding? That place is amazing. It looks like some old warehouse by day, but by night they set it up with fun in mind." Hailey practically screeched with excitement as she locked arms with me. "We need to get you looking sexy for tonight, and I know just the dress."
"Hailey no," I whined, foreseeing hours of torture in the name of beauty.
"Olive, yes," she said sternly. "It's rare I get an excuse to dress you up. Besides, Leo may be a freshman, but he's hot as fuck and if you don't plan on snatching him up, I just might." She winked at me.
"Go for it. I think my one-night stand days are over." I still couldn't get Lucas out of my mind. He ruined me for every man after him. I am not sure I'll meet another man as skilled as him.
"Already? After just one?" She complained.
"Yup."
"Stop pulling at it," Hailey scolded me as I tugged down at the hem of my dress for the millionth time since leaving the penthouse.
"It's too short. I feel like my ass is hanging out." I complained.
Hailey had dressed me in a tiny black dress that glowed in the light from the glitter littering it. It had thin spaghetti straps and was tight against me, like a second skin. I felt like my boobs were about to spill out of the top with my ass hanging out. I was so uncomfortable, but Hailey refused to let me change. She even locked the door and took my key, so I couldn't get back in.
"That's the point, Livie. You look ready to devour." She bit the air around me, acting like I was a meal.
"Stop," I laughed, linking our arms as we approached the doors of the club.
"Damn." I heard Leo whisper under his breath as we approached. His eyes dragged over my body, making me blush as he obviously checked me out. "Glad you guys could make it. We're waiting for two others before we go in. Let me introduce you to everyone."
He walked us over to a small group of guys with a couple of girls. The guys all looked like catalog models with chiseled faces and toned muscles. The girls looked like runway models with long legs and perfect bodies. They had high heels with straps wrapped around their calves and dresses as short as mine, if not shorter.
"Guys, this is Olive and her friend Hailey." Leo gestured to us. "Girls, this is CJ, Kade, and Willis." He pointed to the guys. Then he extended his hand to the girls and said, "This is Claire, and Shelby."
We all nodded at each other a little awkwardly before a loud motorcycle caught all of our attention. I watched as the motorcycle parked in front of us with two people sitting on it. The person on the back got off first. She removed her helmet, allowing her long black hair to cascade down around her. She was absolutely stunning, with pale skin and light blue eyes.
"Finally! Took him long enough," Kade complained, looking at the driver of the motorcycle. He took his helmet off to reveal an all too-familiar face. His intense brown eyes met mine before roaming my body. The right corner of his lips turned up in a smirk.
Lucas.
"Isn't that…?" Hailey started, unable to finish her question as I nodded in confirmation.
