CHAPTER ONE
THE ENCOUNTER
" stop drinking Tess, I think you've had enough" Jessica screamed at her best friend, who was unable to hear her because of the loud music.
" What " Tessie asked
" Stop drinking" Jessica responded louder this time as she walked towards Tessie who was a bit tipsy.
" Let me get you to our table "
" I am fine Jess I promise, I am not drunk, I am fine "
" Why should I believe that, you have been drinking since we got here"
" And dancing too, believe me I am fine " Tessie insisted
Finally Jessica had to give up " okay, you don't look drunk to me, just stop drinking please "
" Okay I will " Tessie promised as they headed for their table.
" Where is Nathan" Tessie asked Jessica
" He went to the Men restroom...........there he is " Jess hinted as Nathan appeared
" Hi Tessie, hope you are okay ?" Nathan asked
" Yes I am fine "
" Hi honey " Nathan continued as he bent over to kiss his girlfriend Jessica
" Hi baby, what took you so long ?"
" Did you miss me ?" He jokingly asked.
Without getting a reply. They sat down enjoying the melody of environment and watching people dance added spice to the evening.
" I think that guy over there is staring at you Tess " Jessica voiced her thought " he has been staring at you since you started dancing"
" No way, that guy is so hot to notice me" Tessie enunciated
" You alwa......................... "
" My love, please dance with me, everyone is dancing apart from us " Nathan interrupted
" Sorry honey, we can't just leave Tess all alone " Jessica said in a more reminding tune
" No no I am fine, you guys should go and dance please, don't worry about me"
" Thanks Tessie " Nathan said as he drag's Jessica to the dance floor.
Tessie let out a slight moan, she felt a sense of guilt, since she broke up with her cheating boyfriend two weeks ago Jessica has stop living for her sake, few days ago Jessica asked Nathan not to kiss her when they are together so Tessie won't feel bad, Jessica has literally stop expressing her love for Nathan.
" Do you mind if I sit with you ?" Someone interrupted her thoughts, she turned and was startled by who she saw. The hot guy that has been staring at her, her heart skipped a bit.
" Su...... sure, please sit" her voice giving way for the guy to understand her surprise.
" Why are you sitting alone, where has your friends gone ?" He genuinely asked
Really! He was definitely staring at me, Tessie thought as she tried to reply " they are dancing "
" Why don't I buy you are drink since you are not drinking ?" the guy asked Tessie
" That's so thoughtful of you but I believe I have had enough drink for a night" Tessie replied trying to keep her promise to Jess.
" You are not possibly saying no to me right now, that's rude" he insisted and she finally gave up " okay, but I will have little"
" Fine, what's your brand " he inquired.
" I would prefer cocktail"
" Perfect, why not challenge me to a competition ?".
" What do we stake ?" She eagerly demanded.
" Anything you want " this reply gave Tessie butterflies as she said " the gold bracelet on your arm"
" Okay " the stranger replied without hesitation.
What! Why did he agree so fast maybe it's not actually a gold bracelet, maybe it's a steel, this got Tessie irritated. Why would a hot guy like him use fake items ? " So fake " she thought aloud.
" What, any problem?" The stranger asked while showing concern
" No no I am fine " Tessie hurriedly replied. Oh, no I would get myself in trouble one day.
" Sit my lady " the hot guy announced as they got to the bar.
" We would like to have a cocktail challenge, please" he said to the bartender.
"Okay sir, what type do you want" the bartender inquired
" Please give us all flavour " he replied.
" Yes sir "
Twenty glasses of cocktail was served, ten for each of them.
Tessie ordered for extra lime as she started consuming her portion of drink.
The hot guy was amazed by the way she took the drink, she was able to consume thirteen cups of the cocktail while he took seven. They were drinking and chatting that she forgot she came with her friends.
When jessi and Nathan returned to their table and didn't see her they felt she already left, Jessica called her but she was not taking the calls. Feeling she was angry Jessica blamed it on Nathan for dragging her to dance and leaving Tessie all by herself.
" Com'on babe, Tess is a grown woman she can take care of herself". Nathan stated trying not to get angry.
" Take me to her apartment I need to know If she is okay" Jessica coldly said.
" It's not possible Jess, we are going home now, it's late tomorrow morning we will go check up on her" Nathan blurted, this time he is ready to explode.
" I won't be able to sleep, I wan........."
" You want nothing, now let's go home. Remember Jess I am still the man here and I believe you won't want to loose your relationship because Tessie is single ".
Jessica turned and walk out of the bar, she headed to the car to wait for Nathan so they would go home. She has been treating him bad lately, she thought it's not his fault that Sebastian cheated on Tessie.
Meanwhile, Tessie has fallen asleep at the bar, as the guy she drank with was settling the bills. When he got back and saw her sleeping, he went to look for her friends, but couldn't find them so he decided to wake her up and ask for her location.
" Hey, wake up " he said while tapping her
" Sebastian " she muttered " don't touch me, you cheating bastard"
" Oops! What a dead man he is " the guy exclaim with excitement.
" I am not Sebastian my lady, I am Kai, Kai Jordan " the hot guy introduced.
" Hmmm" was all the reply he got from her.
" I guess I just spoke to myself, anyways I would need your help to locate your apartment, I believe your friends already left" he said as he tried to keep her awake by patting her cheeks. Her cheeks felt so cold and fragile, like that off a newborn. He ran his hand down to her shoulder, then her arms as curiosity got the better of him, he decided to know if her body is as soft as her cheeks. As he ran his hand over her, he felt an inner urge to continue and perhaps go deeper. He quickly pushed the thoughts away and focused on how to get her home address and take her home or even call someone to come pick her up.
" Do you stay alone ?" He asked her
" Only " was all she said
" Where do you stay ?"
"Stay " she repeated
He smiled, the sight in front of him was interesting, it has been so long since he had so much fun all to himself, he wished he could keep asking and allow her repeat his last words but it was really late and he needed to get home since he wasn't familiar with the environment, he just moved in.
He decided to take her to his car then he would think of what next to do. As he pulled her up and rested her head on his masculine chest. She gently rolled her hands on his torned chest and arose a feeling in him. It was a feeling he hasn't had in a long time, it was a feel of inner pleasure and longing, he felt he wanted her and he knew he wanted her so bad.
He pulled her up to his chest and rested her head on his masculine chest. She gently rolled her hands to his torned chest and arose a feeling in him.
Instantly a thought came to his head " I think I want her for the night" he muttered to himself.
" Let's go home girl" he said to her as she giggled.
