Chapter 26 - Chapter 26:She’s a fighter

Mia

Logan held me by the arm and dragged me outside.

"Is something wrong?" I asked him

"Yes, let the adults be" he told me

"I know that, what about Connor? I was staying there for him" I said

"I can only imagine how he is feeling but I'm sure he understands. It's been years, we need to give them some time alone to do some catching up" he said

"Logan, I know that. Stop repeating it I said" I was annoyed

"Do you want to grab a drink?" he asked me

"Maybe, these past few days have been something else" I said

"That's a yes, I will talk to Connor then come back" he said

A few minutes later, he returned.

"Let's go" he said to me

"Where are we headed?" I asked Logan

"You will see" he told me

We got into the car and drove off.

We arrived at our destination.

"This is it?"I asked him

"Are you disappointed?" Logan asked me

"Not yet"I laughed because I was looking for more, maybe he would show me later

"Come on, let's go in" he said

"Welcome sir Logan, Miss" we were greeted by one of the employees.

"Your room is ready, this way please" the guy said

"What room?" I asked

"It's ok. I'll take it from here, I can find my way" he told the guy, did Logan bring me here for more than drinks, he will be sorry

"You are taking me to a room, Logan. I thought you said drinks" I complained

"Calm down Mia, don't you trust me?" he asked me

"I don't" I said almost immediately causing him to laugh

"Have I ever done something inappropriate?" he asked me but I couldn't find the voice to answer because he had never done something inappropriate.

"Let's just go in please" he begged me and I found myself just following him even when I didn't want to move.

"No way" I stopped moving

"I'm not still going with you" I said

"Too bad, we are already here and you are coming in" he said as he went down and lifted me on his shoulders.

"Let me go, Logan" I kept saying, punching and kicking him.

"Keep quiet, you'll make a scene" he warned me as we bypassed a few people before getting into a private chamber.

"How dare you?" I said and I was about to bite him when my body came in contact with a soft couch.

"Sit down" he said and smiled.

I was annoyed that Logan had to carry me on his shoulder because there were few people around, it was embarrassing.

Logan

I smiled at Mia after putting her on the couch.

"You never listen, do you?" I asked her

"It's your fault, you chose to embarrass me on purpose" she said

"And you chose to be headstrong on purpose" I said but she ignored me and kept looking at everything and everywhere in the room except me.

Only two chairs and a table could be seen, a bar and a bartender who was now approaching us.

"Good evening sir Williams, Miss?" he asked about Mia's name

"Mia" she said

"Miss Mia, your welcome" he said handing a small menu booklet to her

"A menu, really?" she asked me after the guy had left.

"Yes" I answered

"How did you know a place like this, the entire building is beautiful from the outside"Mia asked me

"I own this place, no one knows I own it except Lorenzo and a few employees. This room is mine only, sometimes Lorenzo comes here too" I told Mia

"Private room, private bar, private bartender, and these beautiful colored lights" Mia said

"Yes" I said

"There's a club somewhere at the back, a restaurant, and a gym too" I added and her eyes twinkled at the mention of it

"This is great, you are amazing" she told me

I'm amazing, Mia called amazing.

"Do you like it?" I asked her

"Yes, but I was hoping for more" she said when the waiter came with the drinks.

"More?" I asked her

"Yes, I was expecting drinks at a place with more people. Maybe some loud music to dance and unwind" she told me

"You want to go to the club" I said

"Maybe" she slurred on the maybe

"Ok, let's drink up. Later I'll take you there" I said and she smiled

"But I won't stay there with you, I will call Kevin to pick you up" I told her

"So you'll just leave me there?" she asked me with her eyebrows furrowed

"No I will call Kevin, that's what I said" I explained

"Why?" she asked me

"I don't dance and that place isn't for someone like me, I don't do it" I told her

"So why put it in the building?" she asked again

"It was Selena's idea" I said and Mia became still

She held on to her glass tighter, if I didn't know her better I would say the mention of Selena's name made her jealous.

"Hey, easy!" I said

I hope I didn't upset her

We talked about random stuff; work, her mum's health, her after-school plans, and she just kept drinking.

"Stop, you've had three glasses already. Are you okay?" I asked her

"I'm fine just give me the bottle" she said

It looked like she had plans of getting wasted.

"No more" I ordered

"You were right" she suddenly said

"About Henry, he said he likes me" she told me

"I told you" I said

That little brat.

"Yes, you did. Now take me to the club" she commanded

"Alright, alright" I said before getting up from my seat.

"Are you sure, you don't want to come?" she asked me

"No thanks" I said, "I don't do clubbing, it's for kids or maybe teenagers" I added

"No thanks" she mimicked me, l just chuckled

"Are you laughing at me?" she wobbled

"Be careful, you are dizzy. Let's just go home" I tried to convince Mia.

"No. You know where I want to be so take me there" she told me

"Fine" I said

"Or you don't want to be seen with a teenager?" she asked me

"No that's not it" I tried to explain

"I know it's true" she said again, I just sighed. The alcohol was getting to her.

"Will you fire me?" she asked me

"No, why?" I asked

"I just feel like I'm being a very bad girl right now, I just bossed you around" she sobbed

Why was she crying now?

"No you didn't boss me around, let's go home" I said

"I want to go clubbing" she nagged

"How often do you drink alcohol?" I asked her

"Not much" She said

"So why did you drink so much earlier?" I asked her

"We came here for drinks right, I didn't want to waste your money. Oh I forgot you own the place so no money wasted in the end" she said as we walked to the club.

We eventually got to the entrance of the club.

"So you're not coming?" Mia asked me

"I will just go with you, I'll leave when Kevin comes" I said

"Ok" she said and took me by the hand to the dance floor

"Mia, Mia, I don't dance" I told her

"It is not so hard, you don't even need to do too much" she said

"No I can't, I don't" I said

"Shhhh…."she hugged me when the song changed to "Give Me Love" by Ed Sheeran.

"Give me love like her" she sang

She caressed my back softly and then brought her hands to my neck. I just stood still, I felt the electricity moving through my body.

"This song is one of my favorites" she told me and I nodded.

Mia took my hands and placed them on her hips.

"Just put them here okay, don't let go" she said

How could a gesture as simple as this make me feel so good? It felt like it was my first time touching a woman when in fact I have been with many women.

"You are lucky this song is slow, perfect for those who don't and can't dance" she laughed at me

"Now just follow my lead and sway" she said and I swallowed hard.

She kept her eyes on me, she didn't blink, and neither did I.

I think the alcohol did something to her, her lips were suddenly a bit plumpy and wet. Her hair which was tied in a bun was now loose.

I just kept following Mia's lead as she had asked me.

I was lost in her captivating eyes and our heads moved in sync. I was going to kiss her or perhaps she was the one going to kiss me, either way, I just wanted her lips on mine.

I kissed Mia but, she didn't pull away. She came closer, I circled my arms around the small of her back on the dance floor and pulled her even closer to me.

Our kiss was hurried like we both had been starving, I couldn't get enough of it and Mia as well.

She pulled away and looked at me. I placed my forehead against hers still holding her in place, and she closed her eyes as the song came to an end.

"I will go get a drink" I told her and she nodded

I sat on a stool and asked the bartender to give me two glasses of whatever he was mixing.

Mia came over and took a glass, she drank all of it and went back to the dance floor.

The bartender and I exchanged weird glances.

"Your girl is fire" he said

"Yes, she is" I affirmed looking back at Mia, she was dancing to Shakira's HIPS DONT LIE.

Mia looked very excited, I guess she was unwinding as she wanted. She tossed her hair in the air and kept jumping around, she wasn't even a good dancer but she was flexible. Then she took off her jacket and tied it around her waist. her white innerwear with hard nipples pressed against it came into view, I was stunned.

I moved over to where she was dancing as quickly as my legs could carry me.

"You didn't wear a bra to work?" I asked her in shock as I removed my suit and placed it over her shoulders.

"Why do I need a bra, my boobs are not very big" she laughed

"Even at that, you should wear them Mia" I reprimanded her.

"That's enough dancing for one night, let's go home" I told her

"No I don't want to go home"she said

"Mia, stop this. You're drunk" I told her

"No I'm not" she pushed against my chest.

"Hey man, the lady said she didn't want to go" a tall guy said to me

"Is he bothering you?" he asked Mia

"Yes please" Mia said

The guy punched me hard on the cheek before I could say anything more.

"Oh my God, who asked you to hit him?" Drunk Mia said to the guy

"Logan, are you okay?" Mia came over to ask me

"What is wrong with you, you can't just go about beating people" Mia scolded the guy

"You said he was causing trouble" the guy said

"Yes we heard you" his friends gathered behind him with scary-looking faces

"If anyone touches him I will break his fingers" Mia warned and I looked at her in amusement, clearly the alcohol was giving her false strength.

The other guys laughed at the statement Mia just made, I didn't blame them.

"Who are you, some kind of Jackie Chan's descendant, how can you break our fingers" one of them asked her

"It was all a misunderstanding guys, we are leaving now" The last thing I wanted was to be involved in a fight. I got a hold of Mia's hand, she didn't protest.

We didn't make it out of the club when someone struck me from behind.

Mia launched at him fiercely before I could stop her. I just stood there and watched how Mia took on four guys on her own.

"Let us go, Logan, more are coming" Mia said but I didn't move. My brain had not yet registered what I had just seen.

She took my hand and we ran outside got into the car and drove off.
