"Care for a dance?" I asked Rose, enjoying the pink I was causing to show on her cheeks.
"Shouldn't you be dancing with your date?" She snapped, surprising me a bit. I laughed at the thought. Was she jealous?
"She's my sister, not my date." I leaned into her ear to speak so I wouldn't have to keep yelling.
"Yeah, sure, and I'm a rockstar." She rolled her eyes, not believing me.
I shrugged my shoulders, heading towards Lisa. Maybe she'll believe it if Lisa tells her. Lisa already knew about Rose. I called her Wednesday, complaining she was taking up too much room in my mind. Lisa made fun of me, wondering if this would be the girl I finally settled down with. She's wrong though. I think I need to fuck her again to get her out of my system. I don't need another relationship after the shit I've been through.
"Do me a favor, go tell Rose who you are," I asked her, prying her away from Kade, who was doing his best attempt at capturing her attention.
"So, that really is her, then?" Grabbing her phone, she took a selfie of herself, capturing Rose in the background. She then zoomed into the picture to get a better look at her. She was great at checking people out without them noticing.
"She's hot, Luke." She hit my chest with the back of her hand in surprise.
"She thinks you're my date."
"Why didn't you tell her I'm your sister?"
"She didn't believe me." I shook my head.
"I got you, don't worry." She winked at me as she flicked her black hair over her shoulder and made her way towards my Rose. They spoke for a while, and I wondered what exactly she was telling her. When their conversation was over, Lisa headed back to me with a smile.
"I see why you can't get her out of your head. Good luck, brother." She patted my back before heading to the dance floor.What just happened?
Rose walked in my direction, making me believe she was going to take me up on my offer, but she grabbed her friend and dragged her to the dance floor instead. Eshay by Dassy started playing, having Rose backing her ass up against her friend. They danced seductively together, knowing exactly what they were doing.
Rose paid me no mind, as she had her fun. I couldn't help the amused grin crossing my face as I watched her. She was fucking hot, and I wasn't the only guy whose attention she was catching. I saw other guys try to make their way towards them, but she'd push them away any time they touched her. She wasn't interested, and she made it known.
"When did you meet her?" Leo came up beside me with his scotch in hand.
"Last week."
"It's not like you to still be hung up on someone a week later." He swirled his drink in his hand.
"I know." I couldn't pry my eyes away from her as he spoke to me.
"Damn man. I thought maybe I had a chance, but if she's slept with you, there's no hope for me," he laughed dryly. I try not to go after girls I know Leo likes. A girl can cause a drift between us, but in this case, I had her first.
"Sorry, Leo. Where'd you meet her, anyway?"
"On campus, I kinda ran into her, or more like I accidentally whacked her with a door. Hurting her and breaking her phone," he groaned, explaining how they met. I laughed at him. He'd always been clumsy, but it usually ended in his own pain, not someone else's.
"I'm surprised she still talked to you after."
"You and I both," Leo sighed. "Fuck, man. I was really starting to like her. You know, she would not accept the phone I had gotten for her because it was too new?" He shook his head in disbelief.She didn't like lavish gifts. I made a mental note as I continued to watch her while nursing my drink. I didn't miss the eyes of the girls that were checking me out, but I ignored them all, even the ones who had the balls to come talk to me. My eyes were locked on my Rose and her beautiful body.
I watched as a larger man made his way towards her. He grabbed her waist, but she pushed him off. He was a bit too drunk to take the hint, coming back to her and grabbing her hips again. I started walking towards them, ready to help her when she needed it. I should have known she wouldn't need it.
"I said get your hands off me before I kick your ass!" she yelled at him, not a shred of fear in her tone. This guy was easily double her sizewiththe stilettos on, yet she threatened him like he was a small teenage boy. The guy laughed at her, clearly not taking her seriously. I walked closer, ready to pull the guy off her.
"Come on, babe. Don't be like that. You're sitting here dancing with your friend like that because you wanted a man to come to you. Here I am, baby."
I was about to reach them when I saw her pull her fist back and punch him right in the throat, surprising the hell out of everyone. She then kicked his side and punched his kidney. I could see she was an experienced fighter.
Damn, this girl is full of surprises.
