Chapter 1 - Dillion
Dillion was trying to get Kat and Dakota to party, but was having trouble. Dakota kept checking her phone for a message from her fiancé and Kat was yawning behind her hand. The others had gone to bed and she wanted to get Dakota laid before the next morning. Her wedding was in another week and she knew that this was it for Dakota and going out. Her fiancé Sam did not like going to clubs and kept Dakota shut in almost all the time. Dakota had confided that she missed partying some in a moment of weakness. Of course she had backtracked quickly, but Dillion knew that she loved going out. Kat was the maid of honor and had let her help plan this bachelorette trip and after partying in several bars, they had returned to the hotel. Most of their friends and Dakota's relatives had gone to bed, but Dillion had set this up with Kat earlier and they were in the hotel bar now and trying to find someone for Dakota. The problem was, the only men in there were middle-aged businessmen or guys with their wives. Not much of a choice for three women in their early twenties.
Then he walked in. This guy looked to be six feet tall and filled out his button up shirt wonderfully. He looked muscular and clean cut and perfect. Dillion felt her body react after all the alcohol of the day. She beat down her hormones and thought about how to get him fixed up with Dakota. He moved to a booth along the wall and ordered a minute later. Dillion was watching him as she sipped her wine. Kat yawned again.
"I think I'm going to bed. This is a waste of time," Kat said after unhinging her jaw.
"That's fine girl, but wait for me to order first," Dillion said. She could not hide her smile.
"Uh-oh, what's going on in that devious head of yours?" Kat whispered.
"See the guy against the wall? Don't stare! Just glance over," Dillion whispered back.
"Not bad. So?"
"Just wait a minute and you can go," Dillion responded.
Dillion waved at the bartender and ordered three shooters as Dakota came out of the restroom. Dakota walked up as the drinks were being poured in front of them.
"What's this?" Dakota asked.
"It's a party girl, let's take this up a notch!" Dillion said and hooted loudly.
Dakota rolled her eyes but nodded and Kat said she did not want hers and was going upstairs. Dillion nodded and looked over at her target. She left Dakota and sauntered over as Kat said goodnight.
"Hi," Dillion purred.
"Hi," was the response. Dillion could already see he was shy.
Dakota made sure she kept eye contact, "listen, we just ordered a round of shooters and my friend is bailing on us. Want to have our extra?"
The guy looked surprised and she saw his eyes look at the table for a moment. Then as they rose, they moved up her body from her shorts to her tee shirt to finally her face.
She stuck out her hand, "I'm Dillion."
"Zach," he said as he took her hand and shook it.
She noticed that he had a firm touch but did not squeeze painfully like a few men did. Up close he was even hotter and she knew that if Dakota did not want him, she sure did. She led him back to the bar and swung her hips as she did. She knew she was smiling and saw Dakota give her a glare. As she reached Dakota, she held her hand up to ask Dakota not to complain.
"Dakota, this is Zach," she said and put her hand on his shoulder. It felt like a rock and she felt her breath get heavier.
"Zach, this is Dakota. She's getting married next week. We're here for her bachelorette party," she said.
"Oh. Wow. Congratulations," Zach said and offered his hand up to Dakota.
Dakota shook his hand but did not say anything. Dillion handed out the shooters and started to toast. Zach interrupted and asked what they were drinking.
"Sex on the beach!" Dillion said and downed hers quickly.
Zach immediately turned his up and Dakota then did as well.
Zach and Dillion set their glasses down on the bar at the same time. Dakota took two drinks of hers and then set it down. She got an embarrassed look as she did and Zach smiled at her softly. He said it was all right and Dillion quickly said it was not.
Dakota grimaced and Dillion called the bartender back over. She asked Dakota to pick the drink and she selected Kamikazes for the three of them. She looked at Zach as she ordered and Dillion grabbed his arm after she did. They drank the second shooter and all three of them slammed down their glasses at once.
The three of them started talking and Dillion was glad to see Dakota start warming up to Zach a bit. He asked her about her wedding and her fiancé and it was clear that he was not hitting on her at all. Dillion had to keep reminding herself to get Zach and Dakota together. She kept grabbing his arm or smacking him in a playful way. They talked about his job and then theirs all the while taking turns ordering more shooters.
Zach had a plate of chicken fingers show up and he offered some to both of the ladies. They both said no, but then started stealing his fries almost immediately. Dillion saw him smile at Dakota after grabbing a few and felt a pang of jealousy that she beat down quickly.
Dillion insisted that he take a turn ordering a round of shooters and was disappointed that he did not order something sexual. He ordered Lemon Drops and she followed him up with Sloe Comfortable Screws. She smiled at his embarrassment and then noticed Dakota smiling at it as well. Another pang popped up and she shook it away again.
They stayed a while and drank several more rounds. Dillion knew she was drunk and could see that Dakota was even worse than she was. Zach had put them both on stools a while ago and Dakota was leaning on the bar and slurring a good bit. The bartender finally walked up and said that they needed to settle their tab as he would not serve the ladies any more. Zach nodded and Dillion was happy to see him pay most of the bill they had run up.
