Befinden Sich Im Bar*****

* * * * * * * * * *

He raised an eyebrow at me, ''Then, why did you come?'' He took a sip of his drink, as he swept his gaze over my form. His eyes told me all I needed to know about how much of a fool I made of myself.

I twitched my lips, but said nothing. I looked over to the other end, the girls were having fun, and interacting with one another, even the guys were posing cool. it was full of vibes.

'' And why did you come here only to sit at one corner, doing nothing but nursing tons of drinks?''

A smile appeared on his lips. I was taken off guard by it, that was the first time I have seen any other expression, other than boredom. He was this kind of seriouse, quite and invinsible guy, only that it's hard not to notice his effortless gait when entering and leaving the class.

'' I'm just a bystander. And It seems, that we are alike, in more ways than I expected'' What now? I looked at him, like he had hit his head or something. There is nothing about me, that can be matched to him. I might have my quirks, but I Love to socialize, as long as the atmosphere was friendly.

''By the way, this seat is not taken''

He punctuated my line of thought with that statement. I might be slow sometime in getting hints, but I'm pretty much sure he was insinuating, that I should sit with him. Or was just my imagination? I smiled, as I pulled out a chair, got seated, and placed my red wristlet (portable purse), on the table. It wasn't really a hard choice to make, I would rather sit here than be surrounded my nosey gossips.

'' I don't see your scout anywhere. Won't he be coming tonight?'' It didn't take me long to realize who he was referring to. Rupert and I have always been close to each other, we always prepare presentation together, and he always covers up for me, when I forget some power points.

'' Yes, he won't be coming.'' I gave him a stiff smile, as I don't want to be reminded of our now rigid friendship. We had initially planed to rock this party together, hence my outfit.

I really didn't like the way he was looking at me, his dark eyes were darker than usual, but this was the first time I have ever seen him at night. I lowered my gaze, feeling a little conscious. ''I need to get a drink.'' I excused myself. I took my purse with me as I made my way to the bartender. I knew there was no going back now, tmy classmates at those tables were eventually going to recognize me. ''Excuse me'' I tried to get his attention. '' I would like one Piña colada.'' I ordered, as I leaned on the bar counter, and I waited for my drink. I tried my best to dismiss the thought of leaving, without interacting with anyone.

Get hold of yourself girl, You argued with mum the whole morning for this occasion, you can't just back out now, just because your nervous of what they might say.

I massaged my temple, as I was scolding myself inwardly. If Rupert was here, I wouldn't be apprehensive at all, we would've talked and talk until my nerves were no more, he was indeed my other halve. Stop depending on him too much! You will soon be a married woman, I smiled bitterly at that fact.

My drink was passed to me, and I eagarly took a huge glup of my Piña colada, In need of it'e refreshing effect, and sighed as the chilled content filled my mouth, then slid down my throat, I really needed that. I ruffed my hair, and smacked my lips. I never seems to get tired of the taste.

I felt a gaze on me, like I was being watched by more than one person, but I chose to ignore it. Definitely, something else will soon catch their attention,. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, the sinking feeling continued, so I have no other choice than look up.

'' OMG!!! Wiessum!! '' I gasped I couldn't believe that it was him, damn! He was the vibe of the class, and would even ask a lot of silly questions, that never fails to lighten up boring classes. I was one of those, that hated learning, except ethic, median, and a tiny bit of politics. Just anything that have to deal with people, their ways of life, cultures, internet and FOOD!!! But Wiessum was another specie, nothing at all interest him, except for art. I could remember the party we attended at his house, it was crazy, damn!. Sadly, I indeed embarrased myself.

So It was a bombshell for me, to see him working here. I closed my mouth, as I realized, that it was slightly open like, someone who was looking at a Christmas candy jar. He doesn't need to work at all, his assets could cover up for more than three lifes for him.

'' Ebele! I was actually skeptical, that it was you...You look stunning and different '' I'm not sure if that was a compliment.

'' If not for the silkness of your brown hair, your structure, and your scent I wouldn't have believed it at all '' He continued. Did I forget to mention, that he says everything that comes to his mind? It didn't work well for him, though, when he was confessing to his crush.

My smile stiffened, can't he lower his voice? I felt so embarrased, I just hope that my makeup has not cracked.

'' Well! thank you? '' I took a glup at my drink. '' So, you work here? '' I asked, as I stirred my drink lightly, with my eyes down turned.

'' I own this place '' He smiled wildly at me. I was not expecting that answer, the triumph in his tone, lightened up my mood. '' No way!!! '' I was taken a back.

'' Then I guess, you organized this gathering?'' He nodded. ''It's really a nice party, I must compliment'' He smiled broadened, showing off his dimples.

'' So? Since when did you own this place? '' I asked, smiling, with one hands under my jaw, while sipping my cocktail with the other hand, instantly interested, for a long update. I'm sure that I look like a child, on a camp night, who couldn't wait for the advanturous puppet story to start.

'' Well it's not as hard your thinking, I went for the Ausbuildung for ....''

'' Can I have sex on the beach? '' A voice interupted.
