Black Rose

Chapter 12

Ariel's POV

was our last night in Vegas and I'm going to miss the privacy of hotel rooms. The trip has gone smoothly and We're supposed to be going to a club after the concert tonight so I am wearing a black band-aid dress and heels. My hair is down in loose waves with one side pinned back and I opted for a heavier makeup than I'm used to with smokey eyes and red lips. I hope I can stay out of trouble tonight.

The concert was a hit so much energy, the fans loved it. I'm meeting the guys in the VIP room at the club I had to go back to my room because I had a wardrobe malfunction due to jumping around at the concert. The club was packed and I had to push through a oot of people to get to the VIP area. When I arrived the guys were seated drinks in hand laughing.

" Hey, there she is we saved you at seat" Brian patted the seat next to him. I took a seat between him an Matt. Jimmy was directly across from me and Zack was to his right engrossed in a conversation with a brunette woman. " You look nice tonight" Matt leaned in to whisper. " Thanks you look good yourself" I smiled at him. We all sat drinking and talking when a group of girls walked in . I guess the guys knew them. Next thing I know Matt has a blonde on his lap whispering in her ear while she's laughing, Brian is making out with a red head. Zach left with his guest and Jimmy passed on on the chair in the corner. Well this is awkward I thought I probably shouldn't have came here tonight. Swallowing back my feelings I got up and headed to the bar. I didn't bother excusing myself no one noticed. Sitting at the bar I order 4 shots knockingbthem back one after another I was determined to have my own fun.

I felt someone sit down next to me and place a hand on my arm.

" Well here I am what are your other two wishes?" I couldn't help but laugh.

" That's a pretty cheesy line don't you think" I laughed.

" Your so beautiful you made me forget my good pick up lines" He countered. I laughed harder

" Do these lines actually work for you." I asked him.

"More often than you think. So whats your name?"

I turned my full attention to him now. It could be my buzz but he wasn't bad looking and he did make me laugh. "Ariel, what's yours?"

"Rob. So besides being sexy what do you do?"

" You don't quite do you?"

Not when I see something I like" He smiled.

" I'm a journalist , you?"

" I'm a lawer" he answered orderingbus both another drink.

" Oh an arguing guy, that explains it"

We talked for a little while longer and then I convinced him to dance with me.

He was a very good dancer. I was laughing and having a great time. He was cute and funny but there was no spark no attraction. I didn't want to run my hands all over him like Brian. He didn't heat my blood like Matt. Wait why am I thiking of them, they're probably both balls deep in another woman right now. The song slowed down and we danced closer, I threw my arms around his neck and he held my hips pressing me close. As we danced his hands moved lower, before they could rest on my a** I was being yanked backwards into a hard chest. " Dude, whats the problem" Rob yelled. I didn't have to turn to see who grabbed me, I could smell his cologne and my blood was heating from the contact I knew it was Matt.

" We're leaving let's go!" He commanded. Oh no he didn't! I yanked my arm away and started to yell but he grabbed me by the waist and threw me over his shoulder a stomped to the exit. He sat me inside a cab and got in after me.

" What the f**k was that Matt?" I shouted at him.

" You should be saying thank you. What the hell were you doing? getting drunk and letting anyone take advantage of you. What if I didn't come along?" he shot back. Now I was pissed! " He wasn't taking advantage of anything we were dancing I chose to dance like that with him, and its none of your business what I do or with whom I do it. I was having fun why don't you go back to your blonde and leave me the h**l alone!" By now my breathing was heavy my blood was boiling how dare he.

" Are you jealous?" He smirked.

WTF is he serious? " Why would I be jealous of that fake bimbo? Who or what you do isn't my business" I seethed.

" Your jealous thats why you left without saying anything. You were probably only dancing with that guys hoping I'd see you huh"

" Not everything revolves around you your highness. For your information I left because you guys were busy and they're was no reason for me to be there. I drank and danced with him because he didn't forget I was there the second a pair of silicone fun bags came along. He made me laugh. I was actually having a good time until you ruined it. " I was too intoxicated I shouldn't have said all that. I turned to look out the window.

"I'm sorry" Matt said quietly. I bet thats hurt for him to say.

" For what?" I asked turning back to look at him. " For ignoring you, for ruining your fun, I thought I was helping and to be honest I didn't like guy. Can we just forget about it"

"Sure, my nights ruined now anyways"

" Dont say that the night is young. let me make it up to you. let's hang out order some food or something" He's being nice to me he must be really drunk. "Sure why not"

We went back to his room.
