The Life Of Eden

Chapter 3: Him

           As I was looking for Yazmine I started feeling bad that after thirty minutes remembered to check up on her. What if she had left and we had not noticed until now what if she had gotten hurt, I started looking for her more frantically now. I had stopped singing and jumping around to focus only on looking for Yazmine. Then I had found her talking to this 5’7 blonde-haired guy. She was laughing looking like she was having a great time as I smiled, I look past her and made eye contact with a black-haired man sitting at the bar. I looked away right away I don’t even know why. I mean we couldn’t even have made eye count right out of all the people on the dance floor he made eye contact with me I didn’t think so I was exaggerating. I turned back to Lilly and told her to at Yazmine having the time of her life. She laughed as she turned to saying “good thing we convinced her to with us”. Sunflower by Post Malone came on and. We decide to continue dancing and singing along. As Love Me Harder by Ariana Grande and The Weekend Lilly and I decide to get another drink I had already forgot about the black-haired man that minutes ago sat there at the bar. As we made our way over to the bar we kept on singing and every now and then moving on hips to the music. We made it to the bar laughing at how to stupid we probably looked but we didn’t care we were having fun. While we waited for our drinks Lilly and I sang along to the chorus and made weird hip thrusting movements unaware that black-haired man was just sitting a couple chairs away right in front of me, watching us. 

            We made our way over to Yazmine to make sure she was doing alright even though we had not doubt that she was just fine and having fun talking to the blonde. After we checked on Yazmine and were introduced to blonde guy also known as Michael Lilly and I started heading back to the dance floor as Gimme More by Britney came on. We started swaying our hips as soon as we made it to the dance floor, I didn’t know then that he was also making his way to the dance floor. About a minute of us swaying our hips I saw Lilly’s face turn kind of sour like she had bit into a lemon and then I felt a hand on my hips, and I froze. I had no idea what was going on who the f**k was touching me and most importantly why was I not doing anything about it. I have always had problems feeling comfortable when it came to physical touch. I didn’t grow up hugging my parents or anyone else. As a child I had little to no physical contact with anyone I wasn’t used to it I always found awkward and uncomfortable my friends and their family knew and never made me bad about it, but why was this stranger touching me. At that moment I decide to step towards Lilly but I was unable to his hands held on tighter to my waist. I was panic and flash by on Lilly’s eyes as she realized why I wasn’t moving away from him. 

        As she stepped forward and I reached my hands out towards her to pulled away from him, I was spun around and landed on his chest. I started panicking what was going on how was I going to get away from this stranger.
