Walking into the club I felt a little uncomfortable, I was always told women did not go into clubs alone unless they were "loose".
I paid the cover charge and made my way to the bar. "One Colorado Bulldog please."
I accidentally brushed against the man standing behind me as I took my drink and turned to find a table.
"Oh! Sorry. I was just..........." Looking at you I felt that I knew you from somewhere. I am sure a look a puzzlement passed over my face.
You laughed. "That's o.k."
I walked to a table in the back of the room near the restrooms. I sat my drink down and sat in the chair with my back to the wall. I wasn't sure what made me come here. I never go out alone. I listened to the band play, and watched the people laughing and having a good time. Sitting alone, I felt kind of foolish. I decided to go into the restroom to freshen up a bit.
I walked down the hallway and into the restroom. I washed my hands and reached for the paper-towels when the lights went out. I was searching in vain for the light switch when the door opened. "Great!" "Pardon me, but could you turn the light on?"
The door closed quickly and I heard a click as the door locked.
"Hello?"
I'm sure whomever it was could hear the uncertainty in my voice. All of a sudden I felt a hand cover my mouth, and another hand pinned my wrist together. Terror sent electric impulses through my body and I froze in place.
"Hello Cara."
Again, I was confused. I didn't know anyone here.
"Don't scream, my love it is me."
