"Have you always lived here?" | asked James. He sounded like he had a slight accent that | couldn't figure out.
"No, | am from Owerre, | moved to Asaba recently." He responded.
|
We talked as much as we could, having to shout to be heard. | learned that he had intended on moving back to
his state after he was done with college but decided he wanted to stay here. instead at least for now. | got a
sneaking suspicion it was all because of Andy, they couldn't take their eyes off each other. "Let's go dance!"
Andy shouted, a little from that one drink. He was a lightweight.
everyone. | didn
care
tipsy Before | could object, he grabbed my wrist and pulledtowards the dance floor. There were people
everywhere grinding, talking and kissing. | reminded myself that they were too busy with their own lives to even
care about me. That was the thing about being socially anxious, I could make myself believe that people were
judgingfor my every move when in reality, | didn't even, cross their minds. Music by Calvin Harris began to
play just as we found a spot with big enough space for all of us. It was like the whole crowd got turned up at the
song and | laughed when Andy started singing with the rest of the people in here who knew it, which were pretty
much much for the song but it was great to dance to. Shaking off my insecurities, | felt the rhythm of the beat

blanket over me. Andy dragged James into his arms before turning him around, resting his hands on his hips and
| shifted my gaze. | don't want to see my friend grinning at a guy, we had boundaries and that act was too sexual
for my poor eyes. After two songs, | was sweaty and breathed heavily, | should really start exercising. It was
almost embarrassing how out of shape | was and being with three men, | should definitely get into better shape
just so | could keep up with them in bed.
| walked back to the bar, thirsty and wanting another drink. Just as | got to the bartender's attention and started
to order, Kent cover.
"Jack and coke forand scotch on the rock for the pretty lady." He said to the bartender, speaking over my
own shoulder. Chapter 66: Date Rape Drug
"Thanks," | smiled through gritted teeth, it was annoying as hell when a man would speak over
"No problem, taking a break from dancing?" He said, nodding towards the dance floor and sat down on the
available swat to my right.
|
"Yes, | just needed a breather." | replied, my eyes found Andy and James on the floor. They were making out and
were barely even moving other than a slow rocking motion.
"They are cute, aren't they?" He asked, following my gaze towards them.
"They really are," | was so happy for Andy, he deserves the best.
Seeing him like that with another man madeupset with his parents. They were the ones who should have
supported their son and loved him no matter what, that was how parents were supposed to like. But no, instead,
they threw him out of the house and turned their backs to him. If parents wouldn't love their children
unconditionally then, they shouldn't have been patents in the first place.
When we got our drinks, | made sure to pay for mine. Like | said before, | had a problem letting. others pay for
me...
"So, how did and James meet?" | asked as | took a sip of drink. The cold burned my throat and | liked the mixed
sensation.
"James responded to my post when | tried to find a new roommate. My old one moved out and | needed help
with the rent. Out of all who applied, he was the only one who seemed like a cool and reliable guy and he is. Your
friend picked a better guy. What about you and Andy?" He asked.
He still made a face as he drank his liquor but it wasn't as visible as it was before. Either he was starting to like
the drink or he was getting too tipsy to taste it.
"We work together at a care," | replied and looked around the club, trying to think of something else to talk to
him about. | definitely sucked at small talks and it seemed like | wasn't getting any better at it. "Cool, so you are
not single after all, huh?" He teased me.
"No, | just started dating someone actually." | lied, it wasn't like | would go into the whole bdsm scene and my
dominants. That would make for an awkward conversation even worse than an awkward silence. "That is cool. At
first, | thought we were going on a double date or something but this is fun too. Chapter 66: Date-Rape Drug
Is your boyfriend okay with you being out without him?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
Yes,
he was completely okay with that." | mumbled with great effort but on the inside, | was irritated at the question.
Having a boyfriend didn't mean | shouldn't be able to go out without him. But the actual f***k was | had never
been in a relationship but | knew how it works, there had to be trust involved. "Oh, okay..." he trailed off.
| heard in his voice that he wanted to say something more but probably thought better of it. Sipping my drink, |
tried to ignore the stare he was giving me. He looked atwith an intensity that madeuncomfortable. "You
are really beautiful." He commented out of the blue. My eyes widened, he wasn't coming onto me, was he?
"Umm.... thank you." | tried to smile but there was just something about his vibe that made it hard to do so.
"Just be careful with your drink, women like you are usually targeted with date rape drug." He winked as if what
he had said had been a compliment when it only mademore paranoid than | usually was. What was | to say
to something like that?
|
"lI am always careful." | finally responded, looking around the room for any escape away from him.
| really didn't like the direction of this conversation, who even mentions date rape drug to a complete stranger?
"lI am going back to the dance floor but it was great talking to you." | said and didn't wait for him to respond as |
hurried back to Andy and James.
| could feel his eyes onas | walked away, it made my skin crawl even though I didn't know him- enough to
understand why. Dancingaway from the weird feeling | had gotten from him. There was something off about
him but I couldn't nwhat it actually was. But if there was one thing | had learned, it was to trust my gut
feeling.
It had savedmany times in the past from situations that could have ended badly if | hadn't listened to my
instincts.
