Life as we all know takes many twists and turns. Mine started on my 29th Birthday. I went with a few friends to a new rock club featuring a new band that every ones been raving about. I’m not the friendliest person nor do I like being in large crowds. I like my space and my freedom. Being 29 and single I’m set in my ways, but this night this one was just a little bit different.

A couple of hours after we get to the club. The music electric and alive. The revelers dancing, laughing, drinking and having fun. All bar one. I’m sitting alone at a table in a secluded corner, observing those around me with my trusted friend, Jack Daniels. The side effects of my companion are taking hold. The relentless beat of base and drum vibrates through my body, tingling my organs with every beat.
As my eyes wonder around the room again for what feels like the millionth time I see you as you enter the club half a dozen other guys with you all laughing and by all appearances slightly if not fully drunk, but not you, you glide into the room like you own the place not looking at anything specifically just observing the surroundings. Mystery in your eyes and pain in your soul just the type of man I know to stay away from, trouble with a capital “T”.

As I watch you walk to the bar and place you order slightly bent over the bar to ensure the bartender can hear what you want. Your ass is prominently displayed for me to view. People weave in and out of sight blocking me and I find myself shifting in my seat to ensure I get just another glance. My throat becomes dry and I gulp down what’s left of my drink and start on the new one that has already been placed in front of me devouring it as I want to do with what’s prominently displayed right across the room from me and I can’t help, but wish everyone else in the room would just disappear so I can have you all to myself even just watching you move. I turn away wondering what’s gotten into me thinking it’s just the alcohol talking and taking away what little sense I have left.

I try not to look, but after only a few seconds I find I’m peering at you again and there you are sitting at the bar on a stool with your elbows on it leaning slightly back and watching me, not casually but with a hunger I haven’t seen before. Like I’m a glass of water and you haven’t had anything to drink in days or weeks. I feel a warm blush heat my cheeks as you slowly lick your lips while staring straight into my eyes daring me to look right back. I look around searching the crowded club for my friends and most importantly back up, but no one is in sight.

Needing a break I escape your stare by going to the ladies room. Hoping you’ll be focused anywhere else when I return. To my disappointment when I return to my table not only are you not at the bar I can’t see you anywhere in the club and my disappointment is so profound I just want to leave call it a night and head home for a long hot soak in the tub. With that in mind I stand up and start gathering my things as I look around the club yet again for on of my friends know that I’m calling it a night.

All of a sudden the lead singer of the band announces that they have a request for a song a duet actually Seether featuring Amy Lee – Broken. My favorite song and all I’m thinking at this point is “Please don’t kill this song. As the first few notes are played I can feel the music spreading through me and my hips start to sway to the rhythm of the beat and my eyes close of their own violation just enjoying the sensations running through me.

I feel a arm slide around my waist slowly pulling me back into a hard body and I can feel your breath on my neck as you start singing along with the lead male singer. Your voice a carrying over his and sending shivers down my spine making me melt just that little bit and I cant help, but follow your lead and dance with you and sing along as well, swaying back and forth your chest at my back and your voice in my ears singing for me alone. The world has disappeared and it’s just the 2 of us in a room the heat of our body’s as one. Your fingers slowly but surely start stroking my side. Your other arms joins the first crossing over my stomach pulling me tighter into you and I can’t think of a single reason we should stop not one single thing comes to mind that this isn’t right and shouldn’t be happening. I don’t care that I don’t know your name that you could be anyone or anything.

The song comes to a close, but we don’t separate and the next song comes on, something fast and heavy. We stay as we are slowly swaying back and forth just the 2 of us without the song though your no longer singing and all I can feel is your hot deep breathes fanning the hair along my neck getting slightly quicker the longer we stay as we are.
