Chapter 4 - If Looks Could Kill

Piper

Ang really outdid herself tonight. She has me wearing this tight red body con dress that hugs every one of my curves like a glove. While I'm far from fat, I have some killer curves in all the right places. My hair is half up with loose, silky waves flowing down my back. I opted for minimal makeup tonight, because honestly, it's all the effort I had left in me to give today.

Ang went for a knee length skirt and a crop top with similar hair & makeup. We will be killing it tonight. Watch out boys…

We pull up to Club Liquid and this place is packed. Sliding out of the car, we take in the sights as well as the line to get in. The building is a modern two story with dark colors and deafening music permeating from the doors. But judging by the line, it is indeed the place to be.

"Ang, this is going to take forever to get in" I grumble.

She rolls her eyes before adding "NOTTTT! I know one of the bouncers". We walk up to the door and the bouncer throws a megawatt smile at Ang. "Hey baby girl, I was wondering when you would show up". Ang blushes while replying "Hey CJ. This is my friend Piper".

CJ gives me a warm smile, which I return, and gestures for us to go through the ropes he just lifted and into the door.

As we step through the doors, I'm slapped with sound waves that vibrate my whole body. The place is packed. The first floor has high top tables in a semi-circle with a monstrous DJ booth at the back. In the center is an impressive dance floor. On either side of the DJ booth is a set of stairs leading up to the VIP suites. Overly stocked bars are nestled on either side of the downstairs with cages hanging on both sides. Inside the cages are half naked chicks grinding on poles in the center.

Ang pulls my attention back when she laughs "If you keep staring, they might think you want to get into the cage".

Not a chance in hell.

I snarl at her "I'm going to need a strong drink, or two before that happens".

She laughs at me while tugging my hand towards the direction of the bar. "That can be arranged you know".

This girl got jokes.

We slide up to the bar after trekking through the monsoon of people. I settle for a martini dry while Ang orders a Sex on the Beach. I haven't had a martini since I left Tristan. This used to be our thing. But I figure since I'm moving on, this drink needs to have a different association with it since it's my favorite. I need something I love tied to fun memories. Not dark ones.

We clink our glasses together in a quiet cheer before turning to find a table. As I wade through the throng of people with my bestie in tow, I can't help but feel like I'm being watched. I glance around the room but don't find anything out of the ordinary. This place is so packed I'm sure I wouldn't spot him even if I tried. Probably just me being paranoid.

I'm miles away. He can't find me, right?

I shake off my thoughts as we slide up to a table that just got vacated by, what looked like, two horny teenagers that just discovered the opposite sex. I can't help but muster up a chuckle regardless of the unease I feel.

"I'm going to need about 15 more of these" I tease.

Ang laughs "You can have whatever you want princess. This is your celebration". And with that, we called the waitress over and ordered a round of shots.

We were about 2 rounds of shots and a couple drinks deep when Ang decides she wants to dance. I guzzle what's left of my drink, feeling the liquid burn my throat, before we make our way to the dance floor. Our favorite song starts playing and we don't waste any time getting crazy.

We have a girl code where we are fiercely protective of each other should a dude approach while we are out in the dance floor. When we go out, it seems like we always attract the weirdos. We dance to several songs before the fatigue sets in. Sweaty and spent from our non-stop dancing, Ang runs off the last loser who try to grind on us before the song ends.

As we make our way back to our table Ang notices two guys perched on the balcony above in the VIP section. She points them out to me and holy hotness….

If looks could kill that tall, dark and handsome one would have done me in. It should literally be a sin to be that hot. He is around 6"1' with dark, perfectly moused hair. He has a strong jaw line with a 5 o'clock shadow. He has the most glorious fuck me eyes and a smile that can drop your panties without even having to speak a word to you.

I'm pulled from my dirty thoughts when Ang tugs on my arm. "Calm down girl. I can feel you eye fucking him from here".

I retort "Did you not see him?"

She giggles "I was too busy worshiping his friend. It should be a sin to look that good."

Man, I really need to get laid. And this dude isn't helping.

"Ang, let's hit the bathroom and grab some more drinks." All this eye candy has me needing something cold to calm my nerves.

It doesn't take much coercion to get her on board. We make our way to the bathroom and shove inside. The bathroom is littered with drunk girls gossiping and reapplying make up. We do what we came to do and meet back at the sinks. It doesn't take long before Ang brings up the thing that's plaguing both our minds. "Did you see those two?".

How can you not see them? The hotness was radiating off them so much I'm pretty sure they could scorch this place with one look. I know mister tall, dark and handsome had successfully incinerated my panties by just stand there.

"Girl, how can you not? Their hotness was blinding. That much hotness should come with sunglasses" I laugh.

We continue to chatter about the elusive hotties on the way back to our table. As we stroll up and perch ourselves on the stools the waitress comes by. "You ladies want another round?"

"Absolutely" Ang chirps.

We suck down this round before heading back out to the dance floor. It's loud, hot and sweaty in here but we are on a mission. We came to let loose and forget life, even if it's just for tonight. We hum along with the music while swaying our hips to the tunes.

It isn't long before I feel an electrical current ignite my body as a strong arm slides around my waist hoisting my back against a firm chest.

I spin around and almost lose it…
