Contract of Love

Tasha, it's about time you celebrate, you graduated last month plus you got a job, the celebration is long overdue” my best friend and roommate Faith was saying in her motherly voice.She's basically been my family since I lost mine to a plane crash a few years back. The celebration isn't a bad idea, the bad idea is that she wants me to go on a date with a guy I right swiped on tinder but I wasn't ready for any type of relationship.Well, Faith won in the end, she wins everytime. She's getting me all dolled up for my date in a bar. She let my curly hair down, conditioned it and laid down my edges. She made my make-up very light and minimal, insisting that I might get smashed tonight and she doesn't want her hard work ruined which might likely not happen.She pulled out a short black strapless dress with a cowl neck and a small slit on my left thigh to be matched with black heels. I sprayed my perfume and I smelled and looked great. I loved what I was looking at.“Babes, he won't be able to take his eyes off you, I can bet that” Faith said in an almost crying voice while I laughed. She can be a little dramatic sometimes.“See you tomorrow at noon” she said kissing my cheek“How’d you know I won't be back tonight ?” I asked but instead of replying, she pushed me out the door blowing me a kiss.I took an Uber to the Galor's club where my date asked us to meet. The club opened a week ago but it's bustling with people.I’ve been sitting in the bar section for about an hour and a half and my date hasn't showed up yet. I'm contemplating going home or just sitting here. I can't believe I got stood up the one time I finally decided to go on a date with this guy. It's really annoying.I finished the rest of my drink and was about to flag the bartender when I felt a piercing stare. It was drilling a hole at the back of my head.I turned around and was met with the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen. I almost couldn't look away but I forced myself to.I flagged down the bartender. “Can I get the check please ?” I couldn't wait to go home and tell Faith what happened and how wrong she was“It's been covered already” The bartender tilted his head towards my side and I felt a commanding presence beside me. I turned and I was met with the same beautiful blue eyes. It was as clear as the sea.He looked delicious yet dangerous. His sleeves were folded up so I could see the tattoos peeking out of his muscular arms. His dark brown hair was perfectly disheveled. He had a perfect jawline which I'm sure can cut through steel.He’s towering over me looking every bit handsome yet intimidating but I don't falter.He took a seat beside me while I gave him a half smile.“Drinking alone or are you here with someone ?” “I got stood up by my date” I replied slightly embarrassed. He gave me a smirk “I don't believe you but I'll take it. What's your name?” “My name is Natasha Clark but most people call me Tasha” I replied with a shy smile. “What's yours?” “My name is Alex,” he replied. His voice was smooth and firm and it was doing something to me. I never thought I'd get turned on by a guy's voice.“Would you like to dance Natasha Clark ?”“I would love to Alex” I said grinning.He took my hand and pulled me to my feet. He's so tall I feel very short even with my heels on. He led us to the dance floor and we danced together, I turned my back to his front rubbing my ass to his front. He placed his hands on waist as we followed the rhythm of the music.I wouldn't normally do this but alcohol brings out another side of me.I felt a hot breath against my ear.“Would you like to take this somewhere else Princess ?” He asked“Sure why not” I replied with a seductive smile.
