As I walked into the bar the stench of alcohol hit me like as if I had been hit by a bus, my house was still like 20 minutes away and I know that I can't walk that distance in heels my feet would kill me. I only had ten dollars left in my purse and my debit card with my fake ID was at home but so I just bought myself a non alcoholic drink and sat right there at the bar table waiting for just nothing to happen. I was almost done with my drink before this guy walked up to me and sits next to me, he was not that tall but taller than me, I think by two inches and his body wasn't that huge like a bodybuilder it was just, his skin tone was just that caramel complexion with his stubble and he also had blue eyes which actually were alluring.
"Hey, noticed you were sitting alone and you are wearing a gown and from what I know I don't think people wear gowns into bars so that they can drink alone"
"Hmm, well I know that it's not a restriction to wear a gown to a bar and drink alone"
"Okay, accepted, so I'm Francis Grayson"
"Yeah, I'm Beyoncé"
"Really I didn't know Beyoncé was this young so what happened to Jayz"
"Your funny, I'm Lexi Brown"
"Okay, Lexi so tell me something about yourself, I would really want to know why your in a gown"
I looked at him as he smiled and this gave me goosebumps not the bad one but he had all the outside characteristics of my dream guy but so did James but I haven't know James that well but I'm ready to know this guy.
"Okay so I'm a girl"
"That is obviously clear"
"Okay so I don't really stay in a place because my mum moves around due to her job but I think I'll be here for a bit longer than my usual travel"
"So what's your usual travel"
"Well about 2 months or 3"
"Whoa, that is a lot of travel then"
"Yeah I know, I just have to be there with here in case of anything"
"I get that"
"Well, it's just now that I didn't go with her"
"So you're all alone"
"Yes"
As we continue to discuss he buys me a cocktail and he tells me about himself and his family, we laugh about some things about him. He tells me about his childhood but then he was about to say something about his high school and I heard him say something about his job but I was t sure I heard right because I was dizzy and I knew that I was drunk and before I knew it I blacked out.
As I woke up the next morning, feeling relieved from yesterday's stress and drama. I look down and notice I wasn't on my bed neither was it my mothers or any guest room bed in the house, I look to my right to see Francis lying down beside me. Noticing he didn't have a shirt on and I was very sure I was wearing it. I then began to wonder if he had taken advantage of me last night so I woke him up feeling so scared and worried of what he had done.
"What?" He mumbled as he wakes up
"What did you do"
"What are you talking about"
"Did you sleep with me yesterday night"
"No I would never take advantage of you"
"Then why am I wearing your shirt and how am I in your room"
"Calm down"
"How can I calm down my life is ruined"
"Look you blacked out after so many drinks we both had but it's like you weren't I control so I brought you to my house for you to get some sleep and I took off your clothes so that you could be comfortable, I couldn't leave at the bar, who knows what could have happened"
"Thanks, so where's my purse?"
"It's in the top drawer next to you"
I look in the drawer and pick up my purse, I look through it for my phone. I had ten missed calls from both Kelly and my mum.
"Ughh"
"What happened"
"Nothing, I just need to get going"
"Wait, let me drive you home"
"That's okay I'll call for a taxi"
"Really, i don't think you should go home all by yourself wearing that dress"
He made a good point. So I allowed him to drive me home, I gave him sometime to hop into a top and a short before we got into his car and just then I noticed how clean and elegant his house is and how the white paint on the wall just improved the quality of the house. As we drove off I didn't even recognize the street we were on and through the drive I had been silent and that was really awkward but in my mind I wondered how he would take me from a bar and he didn't even lay a finger on me to have sex but just put me to sleep in a comfortable manner and not to lie I did enjoy my sleep on his bed.
Finally he broke the silence
"So"
"What?"
He looks at me as his lips curl into a smile and then looks away, I try not say anything and then he looks at me again and this time my face turn red.
We finally got to my house, he looked surprised at my house.
"Your parents built this place?"
"Nope, bought it"
"Wow, it's really nice"
"Nice, yours was amazing and I loved the portraits of tiger painting"
"You know your only 6mins away from my house so if you like to come over sometime I would really like that"
"Yeah, I would like that too"
I get down from his car and he follows me to my doorstep
"So you didn't give me your number"
"And why would I do that"
"Because I know you want to"
"Okay"
I type in my number in his phone and handed it back to him.
"Oh, my shirt"
It was then I realized I was still wearing his shirt.
"Wait here, let me go change"
"Don't worry, keep the shirts to remind you about me, it has my initials on it F.G"
"Thanks"
I watch him as he leaves knowing that it would be a slight chance for me to ever see him again.
