Worlds Collide

Im struggling to walk down the street drunk and in heels, I'm also 100% inappropriately dressed for a club but you know what I didn't feel like pulling out my non-existent boobs when I first met Andy and Ash so this'll have to do. We got to the front of the club, it looked kinda dead but the bouncers let us in... very reluctantly, but hey we still got in. Ashley and I headed straight for the bar, And the others wandered off in a drunken craze "Not a dancer either?" Ashley asked as we walked over to the bar "I'm not drunk enough yet, I might be a dancer as soon as I'm vomiting in the gutter." He laughed and ordered us a round of shots, "Are you trying to kill me?" I said once the bartender had walked off to get the bottle of alcohol,
"Well we aren't leaving this club until the prettiest girl here has danced with me and if tequila is the first step in my mission, so be it." Oh, so the shots aren't for me then, that's awkward, understandable though, there are so many pretty girls in here, blonde hair, blue eyes, tiny waists and they actually have boobs unlike me. Ash kept looking at me weird, almost as if he was expecting a reaction from me, I just ignored him, I knew he was taking home another girl tonight, I stood up kinda defeated, he's a nice guy and I think I'm starting to really like him but I guess you can't teach an old dog new tricks. I saw jinxx sitting at a table with a drink in hand and started over towards him, "Wait, Jordyn." Ashley said grabbing my wrist, "Where are you going." He asked "Well I'm no expert in the matter but I'm pretty sure you can't pick up a girl when you are already hanging out with one." I said trying to yank my hand free. "But I'm not trying to pick up any girls." He said letting go of my hand.
"Oh," I sat down next to him "then how are you going to get a pretty girl to dance with you?" I asked leaning my chin on my hand.
"I'm going to get you drunk." He said bluntly
"How is getting me drunk going to help?" I said sitting up and dropping my hand, "It's going to help because I want to dance with you!" He laughed
"Why do you want to dance with me?"
"Because I think you're beautiful you muppet!." I looked down at my feet and felt my face heat up "funny joke." I said picking at the rips in my jeans, he laughed and wiped his hand over his mouth "Just fucking dance with me JJ." He laughed, I looked up to at him and smiled "You think I'm beautiful?"
"Yes"
"why?" I'm not as beautiful as the other girls here, why does he want to dance with me? "You're real, and I want something real, and have you even looked in the mirror, you're so beautiful, plus you have a sexy accent." He said taking my hand, I turned to the bar quickly taking the two shots Ashley bought, I turned back to him and laughed, "Well... You are going to dance with me or are you just going to sit here and stare at me?" I said flashing him a smile,
"Let's go." He laughed and dragged me over to middle of the club where everyone else was dancing. I put my arms around his neck and he rested his hands on my hips. We danced for about half an hour before I started to get really tired. "Fuck I'm so tired." I said yelling over the music,
"You wanna leave?" He asked
"I don't think the others are ready to go." I said as I saw Jinxx talking to some girl, " I'll drop you home, I've only had like half a shot I'll be fine."
"Okay, let's go." I stepped back, he took my hand and lead me out of the club. I grabbed my phone and texted Jinxx,
'I'm really tired so ash is taking me home' I typed quickly and shoved my phone back into my purse. I was still holding Ash's hand as we silently walked back to the restaurant down the quiet street, occasionally passing other drunk people. "I forgot to ask, I bought my motorcycle, are you okay with riding?" He asked as we came closer to the restaurant, "Um yeah sure that's fine."
"It's okay if you don't want to we can get an uber."
"Umm," shit I lowkey don't want to ride cause I'm scared and I'm kinda sorta drunk "yeah sure it should be fine, I'm fucking tipsy though dude like I might die."
"I can promise you that you won't die but I can't promise you won't get a few minor injuries, maybe severe but details, details"
"Im okay with that so lets fucking to this." When ashley and I reached his bike he took out two helmets from under the seat and passed one to me. He swung his leg over the bike and sat down then motioned for me to do the same, I sat behind him and we both put our helmets on, I put my hands on his hips, and shuffled a bit closer to him... this is weird, not complaining though. He grabbed my arms and wrapped them around his waist causing me to press up against his back. "Put your feet up there" He pointed to a spot for my feet to sit as he kicked up the stand, "Ready?" He asked,
"Start the engine before I change my mind." I answered. Ash started up the engine and slowly manuvered out of the car park.

"Not as bad as you thought right?" Ashley asked as he took off this helmet in the driveway of Jinxx and I's house, I pulled off my helmet too and smoothed out my hair. "I mean I guess it was kinda fun, I can see how you could get into this." Ashley was already off the bike standing next to me, I slid forward and put the helmet in front of me, Ashley offered me his hand, I took it and got off the bike. "Don't deny it you were scared." "Who me? Scared? No I don't think so."
"Well I don't know about you but I feel like you squeezed a little tighter when we turned corners."
"Fuck off Ashley." I laughed and hit him lightly on his chest, Ashley put up his arms in surrender as we walked to the door, I unlocked and opened the door then stumbled into the doorway "Sooo.... You wanna come in." I asked
"Sure why not?" I lead Ashley through the house
"you want a drink?" I asked as we passed the kitchen
"nah, I'm good." He answered I lead him up to my room and prayed to god it was clean. We walked into my (clean) room and he sat on the bed, "nice." He commented
"Nothing much to like." I don't have any posters or art in my room, I know, how depressing right? I like it plain though, my book shelf is decoration enough. "I like it, plain and simple, I must say not what I was expecting."
"awWhat's that supposed to mean?" I said opening my closet to find some PJs. "I expected there to be posters and paintings and musical instruments and wreird Australia things."
"Well first of all," I said rummaging through a drawer "I'm too poor to buy posters, secondly I wasn't in Australia that long and I bearly have an accent and thirdly I don't play any instruments."
"Why not?"
"I'm too lazy." I said finally finding Pyjamas that I want to wear and walking into my ensuite bathroom to get changed, "You can leave if you want by the way, not to be rude but I'm just going to get changed and sleep."
"Well I was promised a pyjama fashion show." I pulled on my shirt and walked out of the bathroom into my room,
"OHHHH very nice, I like, I like ." Ashley said slow clapping "shut up." He stood up and walked over to me,
"Well I'm going to leave now, I put my number in your phone so you better text me."
"Thanks for bringing me home, I had a lot of fun tonight." I gave him a hug and as I started to step away Ashley leaned in, he closed his eyes and I could tell he was going in for a kiss, I quickly turned my head to the side and his soft lips collided with my cheek instead of my lips. He pulled away and gave me another hug "Jinxx is going to kill you." I whispered, he whispered back "Worth it."
