Chapter 2

Jane's POV
 

It was my typical Friday night, as I was uploading another animated lecture until my phone buzz. It showed Carol's ID. And, this made me worried as it was very uncommon for her to call me on weekends and especially on Friday night. 
I received the call. "Hello," I answered. 
 

"Hey, I am Rock. You don't know me but I am standing in front of Hellies, and your friend is quite drunk and wasted right now. I was hoping if you can take her from here. She is a mess of vomit." A man's voice said on the phone. 
 

"Oh, God! Hey, wait, Hellies?" I found myself asking, 
"It's a club, quite famous tbh. Can you please hurry?" He replied annoyed. 
"OK, I am on my way. Just wait for 25 mins." I replied. 
 

After that, I jumped out of my bed. I was wearing my blue comfy trousers and a white t-shirt. It was cold outside so I just grab my hoodie and without wasting a minute I was out of my apartment. I hailed a cab and just said to Hellies and that driver didn't ask for direction. 

After in more 20 minutes I was in front of Hellies but could not find Carol outside. I tried her number once but no one was picking up. There was a line outside the club. Almost 15 people were in the queue. I went to the bouncer outside the club and show him Carol's picture and tried to inquire him about her. He knew Carol and told me that she just went inside again. 
 

I shook my head in disbelief. I tried her number again. But no one picked up. Now I was panicking. I tried to convince the bouncer if I could just go inside to look for my friend. "I will be quick. I swear." I said. 

He looked grim for a moment but then let me go inside. Getting inside I was welcomed by very loud music, sweaty people were almost everywhere grinding their bodies together. It was my third time getting into some club. Before that, it was Paul who took me to a club twice after our marriage. Those clubs in Wisconsin are really no match to these clubs. I thought to myself. It was so big that it was almost impossible for me to find anyone here. 
 

I tried to walk and look everywhere while some drunk people were bumping into me. I tried to make my way carefully. Everyone around me was so wasted. 10 minutes passed and Carol was nowhere to be found. I walked towards the bar where it was less crowded and again tried her number. This time someone picked up but the music was deafening and I could not make anything out of it. Then the phone got disconnected. I tried to look everywhere around me while standing near the bar. It was when I received a message. 

"Hey Jane, Carol is drunk and knocked out right now. I am taking her home. 
Jason 
Xoxo" 
 

Jason was Carol's boyfriend. I sighed in relief. Then who the hell was Rock? I thought. 
I replied to him. 
"I gotta call from someone named Rock. He told me to pick her up from Hellies."
After a few minutes, I gotta a reply. 
"Same here hon, I take her from that guy rock. You don't need to come. Sorry to bother you."
 

I sighed in relief and start walking towards the exit. I wanted to tell him that I was here but then I thought I will just take a cab. I was typing OK to Jason when a hand groped my ass so hard, turned me around and my head hit a hard chest.
 

Alex POV.

It was such a boring Friday. Nothing that I have not seen already. I was sitting in a private room of my club with my buds Max, Dan, Ed and some other people they brought. Everyone was so interested in Dan's wedding which is due in the coming two months. And I just could not care less. And more focused on the drink in my hands.

It was when Max suggested that we should go down and hit on some girls and have the time of our life. I sighed in relief. Because anything is better than just sitting here and taking their crap.

We walk out of my private chamber and I took long strides towards the bar leaving my friends in distance. I order some tequila shots for me and my friends. My eyes were all set on the beautiful blonde in a red short dress who was playing with her hair, I gestured the boy on the counter to give her free drinks. When that boy told her about me she looked at me and passed me her best sexy smile. I passed her a smile that says you are welcome.

"Hey man look at that weirdo. Who comes to a club like that?" Max said. 
My eyes diverted from that blonde beauty to the girl Max was pointing.

I saw a girl with blue trousers and a black hoodie. Her face was not clear because of very little light in the club. But when she moved to the bar, the light made her face clear. She looked a little bit frantic and was so busy on her cell phone. She was standing right beside a free stool but never took it. 
She had dark brown hair, black eyes and was constantly biting her lower lip.

"Yup such a weirdo" Ed commented too. All my friends start talking about the business this club was doing or some other shit.

But I don't know for some unknown reason I was not looking away. She was average, not even wearing any makeup. But then while looking at her cell phone she sighed while tilting her neck, her bottom lip got free from that constant bitting torture and I got a hard-on. I knew at that moment that I wanted this very same face, that very same expression on my bed while I thrust into her.

She was standing just five steps away from me. "Hey look at that red hottie. She is looking at you, Alex." I hear Ed saying. I looked at the blonde for a moment and when I looked back at the hoodie girl, she was going away.
My friends were busy chatting and drinking free alcohol. "I gotta go," I told them and without waiting for an answer I started walking to the same way she was heading to. She was heading towards the exit. Good, because we do need to leave. I thought to myself.
