The Heart Wants What It Wants
Protective & Drunk
As I walk into the crowded club, a mixture of sweat, alcohol, perfumes, and sex fills my nose. I look around, trying to find the person I’m looking for. Selena.
She asked me if I was in New Orleans, or any where near. Just so happens, I am. I was glad to come join her, she said she was lonely. She’s a good friend, and I’d do just about anything for her.
Even if that means having to smell the scent of this club, which isn’t very pleasant at all.
I look around for Sel, trying to find her through all these people. But damn it, I just can’t! I feel my phone vibrating in my back pocket, so I reach for it. I look at it and smile once I know that Selena is here, and she saw me. I reply soon after.
Selena: Lol, Harry. You’re so stupid!
Me: I know! Its so crowded!
Selena: Don’t worry, I’ll come to you.
Me: Haha, okay.
I stick my phone back into my pocket and wait silently, constantly being shoved or elbowed by a person dancing or trying to get through. I sigh as I realize this might take a little longer than I thought. But then, I heard her Sel’s voice. Damn she’s so fucking loud sometimes. I laugh to myself as she gets closer, I turn to see her pushing past people.
‘’Get the fucking Hell out my way, Damn it!’’ She yells, pushing on some guy trying to touch her butt. I laugh once she gets over to me, relieved to be with some one she can trust.
‘’You okay?’’ I ask, laughing to myself as she leans her forehead on my shoulder, exhausted. ‘’Fuck. You.’’ She mumbles as she leans up and motions me to follow her, so I do.
Selena takes me to a table where we sit down.Some girl walks up to our table, a tray of drinks in her hand. Its much quieter in the back, away from everyone. I can actually hear myself think.
‘’Would you guys like a sample?’’ She asks, smiling a little at us. ‘’What is it?’’ Selena asks. The girl laughs, her rich Cajun accent is cool.
‘’I can tell ya guys aren't from ‘round here. It’s a Hurricane, its nothin’ new, we just like to hand ‘em out to new comers.’’ She says as she sits a glass down in front of me and one in front of Sel. We thank her before she leaves.
‘’You’re actually drinking that?’’ I asked, shocked, as Selena takes a few drinks, nodding in amazement as she swallows the red liquid.‘’its good!’’ She says and continues drinking hers until its almost completely gone. I offer her mine, in which she gladly takes it from me and continues gulping it down too.
I know Selena is a grown woman, older than me, but I want to make sure she’s okay at the end of the night. I’ll take full responsibility of her tonight. I will make sure she gets safely to her hotel.
That’s how good of a friend I am. I really do care, she’s too good of a person to end up getting raped on the streets with some random people. Its hard to even think about that at times..
I had been sitting at the bar for what seemed like hours. I kept a close eye on Sel, our table not far from the bar. I twist lightly in the chair as I wait for my beer to arrive. I just ordered my third one.
I’m not drunk, not far from it, but not drunk. This is my last one for the night. Like I said, responsibility for myself and for Selena.
“here you go, sir. Enjoy.’’ The older girl says as she sits the Corona in front of me. I take it and pop the top off, soon guzzling a little down before making my way back to Selena and mine’s table. I fight through the small crowd that blocks my way.
I feel my foot step on something, then I hear a girl’s light yelp, ‘’Oh, shit. Watch were the fuck you’re goin’, dude.’’ The girl says, pushing on me some.
I stumble, but don’t fall over. I look at her. She’s beautiful. She stands with a guy, similar looking to her. The same color eyes. Beautiful and blue and sparkly. I assume that must be her brother.
He looks at me as he puts a hand on her waist, guiding her to him. She falls to his chest, she’s drunk I can tell. He gives me that look, that ‘you-better-go-away-‘ look. But yet, he mumbles something to her and she nods as she keeps her own balance, he still stands close to her. He’s protective, I can tell. Very protective of her.
He’s her brother, I just have this feeling. That’s how I am over my sister. I don’t like for guys to do mean or rude things to her, so I just protect her, like he’s doing to his sister.
‘’Sorry,my fault.’’ I say. His lips ease up from their previous straight line. '’Its alright..’’ He nods a little as I walk off. I sit down across from Selena again. She’s drinking some kind of blue liquid, I have no clue and I don’t feel like asking her either.
‘’What uppp… Stylllles.’’ She laughs lightly. She’s drunk. I knew it. Very drunk. ‘’Hey Sel.’’ I mumble before looking over my shoulder at the guy. He doesn’t pay any attention to me. Just takes to a girl that’s beside his sister, which I assume is his sister.
And the girl, well, she’s looking my way. So, instead of flirting or doing anything back, I turn around and continue listening to Selena’s slurred sentences.
