Jealous Driven

"Out of my way damnit!" She kept scolding and fighting her way through the crowds until she got to the exit.
"Hey, what I didn't get your name... Hey beautiful, come on! How can I get in touch with you? Can I have your contact or your residential address, anything..."
The bouncer whom she had a clash with spotted her on her way out and quickly walked up to her and began to ask her silly questions, which at the moment distracted her from her target. Although she kept moving without responding initially, the more he talked the more she felt her stomach rumbling in anger so much that she had to stop him before she lost sight of Logan and the girl, Danielle,
"Shut the f**k up, I'm giving you nothing... I will find you myself!" She thundered and quickly rushed down the stairs whistling for a taxi to stop.
"Hey men, she really got guts and I think you both are meant for each other." The other bouncer quipped mockingly, placing his right hand on his left shoulder to pull him back to his post because he had walked over five steps away while trying to get Aurora's attention.
"Get your hands off me, men!" He rasped with a wallowing smile on his face, having been half teased and half mocked.
"Follow the black ford in front of you." Aurora said the minute she got into the taxi. Her mind was so occupied with so many things, including trying to get her seatbelts on, that she failed to notice the person about to drive her until he asked with a husky and stout sounding voice.
"Are you trying to be a spy or are you already one?"
The minute he said that, she lifted her head up to get to really see the face of the man who had just spoken in a blattering tune only to find out disappointed that it was an old man who happened to be the driver and, matters worse, he was putting on eyeglasses, with white beards all over his cheek and chin but he was really slim and thin.
"Are you kidding me? Damnit, where is the driver?" She yelled.
"I am." He giggled and, with his right finger tip, touched the middle of his glasses around his nose region to ensure they were hanging properly.
"Then f*****g drive, we've lost them already!" She scolded and with her left hand pointed towards the almost fading red tail lights of the car she needed him to follow and with her right hand she held on to the seatbelt, trying to fasten it.
"Not yet." He bluntly grunted and forcefully stepped his foot on the gas pedal and in the space of three minutes, he increased the gear speed before she knew it. He was an old man, but an old skilled driver and Aurora was astonished at how he managed to get to them within five minutes, not minding the traffic.
"Really!" That was all she kept muttering continuously as the taxi driver approached the Ford in which Logan and Danielle were in.
"So what now spy! Should I run them down?" He grinned in a mischievously insane manner while his eyes were glued to the rear-view mirror in order to see her reactions facially, with expectations that she was gonna be proud of him. But then,
"Keep your distance jerk! I said tail him, not run him down and please don't call me a spy a second time." She warned him and frowned with an everlasting furious look in her eyes until he took his eyes off the rear-view mirror to focus on the trail. After a while, he mumbled with a heavy breath
"You gonna pay me fifty bucks for this. Sorry about the spy thing, I had dreamt of becoming a spy and so when I did not meet the qualifications, I decided to keep driving..." He kept talking until she interrupted him to make him stop the taxi because the Ford had entered a hotel parking lot and she never wanted him to go after it to avoid being spotted.
"Stop the car! Here is your fifty bucks, paying you was never a problem, you talk a lot and good luck to your spy dreams." Her eyebrows lowered to dim her eyes a little and her jaw froze in anger as she huffed while leaving the taxi. She did not bother shutting the back door as she left, neither was she interested in his stories. She placed her hood properly again and walked boldly towards the hotel gate without looking back to be certain that the taxi driver had left.
"f**k! I didn't even get her name, and she didn't even care to know mine. Who cares anywhere?" The taxi driver soliloquizing, kept feeling frustrated and unappreciated while stretching his hand to close the back door himself.
Thunderstorms began to rumble in the night skies as she reached the main gate of the hotel on foot. The security men stopped her, demanding she let them know her purpose of entry, because some people come in for business and others for pleasure, depending on the class and type of individual. Her entire body was scanned to ensure there was no weapon or anything incriminating in her before letting her through. The security man who checked her directly and asked to get all her information before granting her passage did not even bother following protocols because he was already lusting after her beauty and hot appearance.
"Hey, check that out!" The man whispered passionately to his fellow security officers as Aurora walked on...
"s**t men, you can't afford that and you know it!" One of the officers shrilled inaudibly while pressing his tablet.
She walked very fast in order to catch up with Logan and Danielle when she saw them going in through the main entrance and then slowed down in order to keep a good measurable distance from them lest she be spotted. Before her was the receptionist's desk as she came across the threshold,
"Seventh floor..." She muttered with so much uncertainty and covered a part of her face while looking away from the lady on the desk, avoiding eye contact with the lady.
"I'm sorry what room? Check the list and make your choice..." The lady pointed her fingers to an ipad on the left end of the desk. Aurora was busy looking at the indication on the elevator to know which floor they were heading to, and so hesitated to, as the receptionist had asked "...hello miss." The lady drawled to call her attention and she turned to respond to her looking like someone lost in thought pretentiously.
