I've passed it often on my way home from work, this bar that has been calling to me for a week, "Come in, have some fun, meet new people!"
It was an extremely rough evening, even for a Security Guard. I prefer boredom to the excitement I was getting. It was just the wrong kind of excitement.
Last week I had actually thrown a polo shirt into my work bag so I could stop at the store and not have to go shopping in my uniform.
I changed into it before I entered, the heavy smell of smoke burned at my eyes as the doors opened.
Scanning the room, I spotted you, sitting at a table alone, trying to fend off the wolves that were circling. Your blonde hair reflecting the neon signs around the walls. I stopped in my tracks and just looked, maybe a little too long because you sensed it and returned my gaze. Your blue eyes sparkled as you looked at me.
I sat at the bar and ordered a drink. Every once in a while I looked your way, waiting for an opportunity to approach.
Downing another drink I gained the courage and stood up. I turned around and you were there, beside me. As the music of Lonestar's "Amazed" began playing you took my hand and moved me to the dance floor. Neither of us said a word as you put your arms around my neck and my hands went to your hips.
Never once did our eyes unlock their gaze. I slowly pulled you closer until your lips were centimeters away, your breath hot against my lips. My hands moved down your slim waist until they reached your buttocks. It took control to make them not go under the short skirt you were wearing. Just feeling your body pressed into mine was making me hard.
A sigh escaped your lips as they moved closer to mine. They touched softly and parted, our tongues meeting. The taste of the kiss made me press into you more. We held it until the last few notes of the song echoed through the crowded bar.
Still without saying a word you took my hand and lead me to your table.
We sat across from each other and whispered into the darkness. Our voices soft and quiet.
