A loud upbeat and vibrant atmosphere greeted us as we entered the hallway leading to FOGO Center. There were good paintings of famous Rockstars hanging on the walls of the hallway.
Then we entered the mini jungle gate and walked into a sea of high-profiled people who were having a great time.
There was a big bonfire in the middle of the sandy beach and high cocktail tables scattered all over the place. What is more noticeable are the servers who were all holding trays and performing their duties with just swimming trunks on.
"Welcome to adulthood my cousin, go forth and have fun," Belle exclaimed and they started dancing along with the trendy music.
Violet and I went straight to our table while the other girls were already having their life on the beach.
This is my first time being with them in this kind of setting and I couldn't help but shake my head upon seeing their wild sides.
I took a quick video of Sam who was already grinding with someone, Aunt Ana would be really mad at this.
"I am glad that you already turned legal now Tine, I have my own company". Vi said as she drank the cocktail that was served by a naked man with abs.
"Why? Don't you join them?" I asked while still holding the phone, now to capture Flora flirting. She was able to find a tall Norweigan guy with dark blue eyes. He had tattoos and piercings, which made him look smokingly hot and rugged.
I suppressed a laugh when the man turned away from her and Flor looked so offended. Good thing I had it on tape.
"Ahh, it was so long since I had this fun" Violet mentioned while spinning the cocktail glass using her hand.
" You know Elle, before, I used to be out of place but then I figured out that I needed to try everything. Risk if you must. But I know my limits, especially if things suddenly get chaotic at least one of us is sober or else," She said as a matter of fact.
I turned the video off and swallowed my drink. I nodded at Violet.
"Of course, you have a point there. Wait, is it okay to send this to Cian? You know, so he knows where I am. And in case of emergency," I said to Violet while looking at the videos. But Violet quickly got my phone.
"That is something you shouldn't do dear cousin... Or else our night would end in a snap of a finger"
Though I am against it, Violet has a point. I am pretty sure Lucian won't approve of this if he knew, he is overprotective.
More so now that we are officially an item,
for sure, he would come over here even though it is late and be with me and I can't bear to wake him up this time and trouble him since I know he will be working in the morning.
"Yeah, you are right. Anyways, what is this drink?" I asked after sipping the sweet iced tea.
"Oh, that one is called the Long Island Iced-tea. Taste good right?"
I took a sip once more. "Hmm, yeah it tastes sweet and I like it," I answered.
Violet only laughed mysteriously then she drank up all of her drink.
"Come on, finish that one then let's get to the dancefloor." She said excitedly.
"What? I thought we need someone to be sober" I asked in a giggle.
She was already up and jiving with the loud music.
" Yeah but this is your first time so let's have fun. Come on"
Well, Violet is right. I am already here so might as well try it and enjoy the moment.
I finished my drink and we both headed to the dancefloor. I kind of think that Violet was already tipsy, maybe because of the drink she had.
I started to imitate my cousins, who each have a partner in the crowd already. They were all gorgeous so it is expected that men would flock to them. Even Violet already found a partner and they were already dancing sensually.
Another server came by holding a tray of what I think are tequila shots since there are small shot glasses with salt and limes on the tray.
I got one and drink it up. The taste wasn't so flattering rather it has a very strong astringent flavor. It wasn't a good idea to try it but it helped a lot to ease my inhibitions.
I started swaying my hips first on the beat of the music then I raised my hands and danced rhythmically as the music becomes rather chaotic.
This is so amazing and very relieving. I didn't know dancing could be this refreshing and exciting to do. I was deprived of this for 18 years of existence. It felt so liberating and free.
"Woosh" I screamed out but the music was too loud it drowned my voice.
The wind and the night sky were lovely. It was like I am at the center of something fun. It was enjoyable.
I succumb alone to the music, swaying my body here and there, and even bumping into other couples who were also dancing.
It was funny because every time I lose control I keep on bumping into other girls and I would just laugh and jive with them. It was really fun because they were friendly.
For a while there, I felt a hand on my waist. I was busy feeling the music and I didn't mind how that specific person was touching me all over my body.
I thought it was one of the girls I had danced with who are doing something funny again.
"I've never seen you here before baby", it was an undesirable voice. I was alerted. My senses heightened as I recognized how weird his touches has become.
He suddenly cupped my breast without permission, that was when I started to get a different feeling.
"Hey let go", I complained but I was too weak for him and the music was too loud for my protest.
He continued touching my body without permission and nobody was minding it. It is FOGO after all, people are here to have fun. But for Pete's sake, this is too much and he is a stranger.
"You are so f*cking hot babe, let's get out of here." He licked my earlobes before dragging me outside the dancefloor and into the sandy beach.
The on and off lights disrupted my orientation to where he was taking me but I presume it is somewhere alone and far. A place where he can execute his demonic plan.
"Let go of me" I removed his hands on my arms and retreated my body.
"Hell no, you are my jackpot for tonight" he answered evily, dragging me to the dark area of the island.
I didn't even get his face because he was walking so fast and all I wanted was to escape from him.
We came across a couple of people but nobody gave a glance at me or the man. I am becoming scared and so dizzy.
"Let me go!"
Then we stopped in the middle of nowhere, too far from the party proper. No light but the faint one was coming from the moon.
"God you are so delicious and fuckable" he said as if I am prey and he can see me whole from here. I tried to get away but he just pulled me back.
"Oh no, let me have fun with you, baby," He said full of desire and it made me cringe. This man is a lunatic, a psycho and instantly I got scared of my life.
Nobody is here and my cousins would probably take a minute before they figure out I am nowhere to be found.
The guy pushed me down the sand and I can see his silhouette smiling at me creepily.
" Ah what a beauty you are, and I am gonna have fun with you 'till you can barely walk"
Then he started unbuttoning his pants while still feasting his eyes on my body. I was lost for words and my heart was beating rapidly. My whole body was trembling and a tear escaped from my eyes.
Not again.
Pierre, please. Save me.
