5Challenge #8 - With Bite Requirements: 1) Must be a one-shot, Minimum 1000 words. 2) Plot: Protagonist wandering around in a club, meets someone, they flirt, then dance, and the person bites protagonist. You can take it from there. 3) Must have the quote, "Did you just bite me?" and/or "Not cool to go around biting strangers!" 4) Must involve a cookie. Of some sort. 5) Large doses of humor. No: 1) cannibals. As much as that'd be fun to write, it wouldn't be too fun for me to read. 2) long, meaningful moments. This challenge is meant to be quick, light, and fun.
"Come on! You have to come! It's your duty as my best friend" I told Kathy, my best friend.
I had been trying to convince her to come to a club for the past hour, but she didn't want to come because she said something along the lines of being under-aged, that she didn't want to help me when I was too drunk and I am almost certain that she said something about a "curfew" and "church". But as you can see, I didn't even listen half of what she said.
"No! I don't like getting into trouble! And besides, how are we going to enter? We are not twenty one!"
"Do you know who are you talking to?" I asked her and she didn't answer, so I continued anyways. "You are talking to Lori Harrison! And Lori Harrison is capable of doing the impossible! And getting into a club is not much trouble. All you have to do is enter in an air-conditioner conduct and all done. See?" I asked her.
"I don't care. I am not going to go" she said and crossed her arms over her chest.
Unfortunately, Kathy didn't want to come with me, but that didn't stop me.
I was dressed in skinny jeans, a red tank top and a pair of leather boots. I might have wanted to go to a club, but I didn't dress slutty.
I went to the back door of the club and realized there weren't any people, but I really wanted to do a James Bond thing, so I found an emergency staircase and climbed until I reached a whole that supposedly was the air conduct.
I entered and luckily it was clean (or as clean as something like that can be). I started crawling and a few minutes after, I started finding those little squares where the air conditioner is supposed to be released (as you can see, I don't know much of air conditioning vocabulary – hehe). While I passed them, I observed where I was but, I don't know how, none of them showed a club, or sweaty bodies pressed against each other dancing. But it wasn't until I reached the fifth little square that I saw something… interesting to say the least.
I found myself looking at the men's restrooms (luckily there weren't any men peeing), but I was able to eavesdrop the conversations.
There were two men checking themselves in the mirror (and I thought only the girls did that) while talking. They were both blondes, but the one in the right had his hair tied up in a little ponytail.
"Have you seen that chick with the little skirt and the halter top that didn't reach her boobs?" Ponytail dude asked.
"Oh yeah totally man! She was like, so hot!" the other said.
"But, IDK, don't you think she was like, a little too exposed?" I couldn't believe that he spoke in chat-language! (I know, it isn't called like that, but I like to be original!). Were they gays? I mean, how could they speak like that? I mean, I don't have anything against gay people, I love them actually, but these guys did seem like gays in denial.
"What are you? Gay? You are supposed to be turned on by that chick!" non-ponytail guy said. At least one of them wasn't gay.
"I am not gay! I am just a Christian thinking that she shouldn't dress like that!" OH. MY. GOD! Was this guy PMSing? First he says how the "chick" is so hot and all that stuff, and now he decides to be a good Christian? A little late for that! And besides, it's not like his parents were watching him!
"Don't act like that! You are not a good Christian! How many one-night stands have you had in the past month?!" Oh! That explained everything! He was regretting it.
"I just want to erase my sins. And as for my answer, I've had twelve one-night stands in this past month" How many times have I said/thought 'Oh my God'? I don't like being repetitive, so before thinking what I mentioned earlier, I created a new one: 'Oh precious Gandalf!' (I know, who would have thought that I knew who Gandalf was. I am familiar with Harry Potter guys!).
Back to the Christian guy problem… suddenly an idea occurred to me.
I tried doing my best man voice and said from above them "WHO IS THE ONE WHO HAS COMMITTED THAT AWFUL SIN!?" I actually don't know if having sex with people you don't know is a sin, but it was good to give it a try.
"Have you heard that?" ponytail/Christian guy said
"Heard what?" the other one asked. How cliché: one hears something and the other one doesn't.
"YOU ARE GOING TO BE PUNISHED FOR YOU SINS!" I said again, trying to contain laughter.
"Wh-wh-what do I have to do to ask for you forgiveness Lord?" asked Christian guy.
That was actually a good question, I wanted to have a little fun, and I wanted to see if this man was as dumb as he seemed to be. "YOU HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE DANCE FLOOR ONLY WEARING YOUR UNDERWEAR AND TELL EVERYONE THAT YOU ARE A GAY WITHOUT CAUSE!" I said
"Yes! Of course! I'll be back in an hour to report myself Lord!" he said and then I continued my search for the dance floor (I couldn't bear losing much time).
A minute later, I found a square in a corner of the dance floor, jumped, and landed perfectly on my feet.
Before going to the dance floor, I decided I'd first go to the bar, where I asked for some drink the bartender recommended (I know I shouldn't have accepted it, but I came here carefree).
Once I was finished with my drink, I started wandering around the club and when I was making my way to the dance floor, I bumped into someone with hard chest, probably a man.
I looked upwards (he was a few inches taller than me) and found myself staring at a brown haired man with blue eyes, who was staring right back at me.
"Sorry" I said and started walking away, but obviously, he grabbed my hand.
"Do you believe in love at first sight or should I walk again?" he said and I couldn't believe what he was doing.
"I can't believe you are trying that line with me. Besides, it's so overused!" I told him and said another pick-up line myself. "Do you have a map? I just keep getting lost in your eyes." I said and he started chuckling
"Matt" he said and extended his hand.
"Lori" I shook his hand.
"So… what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be dancing?"
"I was just wandering around… what about you? Isn't your girlfriend looking for you?" I knew it was lame, but I had to know if he had a girlfriend or not.
"What makes you think I have a girlfriend?"
"You are hot" I told him before realizing what I was saying. I wanted to bury myself in the middle of Montana with Hannah (haha, do you understand? I know, I'm stupid and so not funny)
"So where is your boyfriend?" he asked, grinning.
"I don't have a boyfriend!"
"But you're hot" he said, taking a step closer. "Do you want to dance?"
"Sure" I replied and took his hand.
We went to the middle of the dance floor and a slow song started playing, so I put my hands around his neck and rested my head on his right shoulder and he put his hands around my waist, pressing me closer to him.
"So… tell me something about yourself" he asked.
"Well… can I tell you a secret?" I asked him and I felt him nod "I am eighteen years old" I whispered in his ear. "Now tell me something about yourself"
"I am a Twilight fan" he said really close to my ear.
"Are you gay?" I asked him, because he can't be a Twilight fan with twenty one years of age (at least) and not to be gay.
Instead of an answer I felt him bite my ear.
"Did you just bite me?" I asked him once I faced him, and he just grinned. "It's not cool to go around biting strangers!"
"Technically, you are not a stranger, I know your name." he said still grinning like a stupid idiot.
"Okay, but why did you bite me?!" I asked him and he replied by biting my nose. Strange, right? "Oh precious Gandalf!" I exclaimed and that made him back away a little bit.
"Did you just say 'oh my precious Gandalf?" he asked, smirking
"Yeah… I'm a huge Harry Potter fan" I told him even though it was a lie. I had never touched a book in my entire life, and I passed English Literature only thanks to the precious internet and its summaries.
He started laughing till the point where he had to dry his tears, and I couldn't understand why. "What's so funny!?" I shouted at him, which made him laugh louder and harder.
"Gandalf –laugh- is –laugh- from the –laugh- Lord of the Rings!" he said between laughs.
"Oh" I said and stared at him like he was a madman. "Are you finished?" I asked him once he stopped.
"Why are you not blushing?" he asked
"Because I'm not that easy to embarrass" I told him
"Oh… I'm going to find a way to embarrass you" he said and lifted my chin with his thumb.
He started coming closer until our faces were inches apart, and finally, he kissed me.
His hands started going downer until they reached my jean pockets. He put his hands inside them and when we needed to breathe, he took out his hands from my pockets, but he was holding a cookie.
"Why are you holding a cookie?" I asked him, wondering from where he had got it.
"It was in you pocket" he said and I could feel the heat in my face. "Did I make you blush?" he asked, kind of amazed.
"Let's just say that I have an obsession with cookies" I said and I could feel even more blush going to my cheeks.
"You are adorable" he said and kissed me once again.
DISCLAIMER:
OF COURSE I DON'T OWN EITHER "LORD OF THE RINGS" AND "HARRY POTTER".
NOTHING AGAINST CHRISTIANITY WAS DONE ON PURPOSE AND SORRY IF IT OFFENDED YOU.
