“You’re playing a dangerous game hermosa” he says, his head never once turning to look at me. I shrug my shoulders, staring out of the window once again as we drive through the night.
“That’s my choice to make”
Alex doesn’t reply but I can see from the corner of my eye that he’s grinning. He presses a button on the arm rest and my window rolls itself down, the cool air whipping me in the face. I turn to look at him, my hair going wild in the wind. He’s not looking back at me but his grin is still set on his face, brown eyes twinkling in the light.
“Close your eyes,” he commands me, a playful tone to his voice. I rest my head back and do as he says, my eyelids fluttering shut. Underneath me, I can feel the car suddenly jerk forward, speeding up. I let out a small gasp, my lips turning up into a wide grin. The wind is wrapping itself around me, the strands of my hair flying.
I can’t help but giggle, the adrenaline cursing through my blood. The car continues to pick up speed and now, Alex joins me with his laughter. I throw my head back, loving how freel feel.
“This is amazing!” I yell, my words drifting away with the wind. I turn to see if Alex heard me and I find him staring at me intently, his eyes sparkling brightly. I’m almost taken aback by his breath taking features and I have to remind myself to breathe.
“You like the danger?” He chuckles, his posture laid back and carefree. I nod my head, my hair continued to fly wildly around my face and shoulders. He continues to soar through the roads, his mouth set into a permanent grin. I don’t know if it’s my imagination or the wind changing his words but I swear I hear him say—
“Dios hermosa, you’re stunning.” (God)
…*************…
“You want me to down that shot, in one go?” I ask, my eyebrow raised high. I let out an unbelievable laugh, shaking my head at him. Alex leans forward, resting his hands against the bar before lightly bumping me with his shoulder. His scent and the multiple drinks we’ve already consumed is making me light headed and dizzy.
“Something tells me you won’t have any trouble with that.”
His voice is silky, almost like a purr down my ear. Every time he speaks, he leans towards me so I can hear him over the music blaring through the club.
“I don’t know Alex,” I shake my head, eyeing up the shot gingerly. The bartender pushes another two towards us before sauntering off, hips moving to the sound of the music. It’s so loud, bouncing off the walls. Crowds of people are dancing, their arms up in the air. The atmosphere is lively, buzzing with people wanting to have a good time.
“Come on hermosa. Take this one first.” He instructs, pushing the purple liquid towards me.
“And this one straight after it.” He shoots me a dazzling smile and I feel my insides clench from a simple second of looking at him. I nod, shrugging my shoulders.
“What harm can it do?” I giggle, taking a hold of the first shot glass. I lift it up and Alex does the same with his, brown eyes sparkling mischievously at me.
“What are we toasting these to?” I ask him, raising my voice so he can hear me over the music. He reaches up with his free hand and I suck in a breath, shivering as his fingers tuck a strand of hair behind my ear, lightly skimming over my skin. My knees wobble underneath me as he leans closer, turning his head to murmur down my ear.
“To danger.”
I close my eyes, a shiver running down my spine. When I open them, Alex is slightly further away from me, looking at me with a smirk on his face. I swallow, my mouth dry as I nod before lifting my in the air.
“To danger,” I repeat, my voice barely above a whisper. I knew he can’t hear me but his eyes darken as he watches my lips mouth the words. They burn with…
Desire?
He doesn’t once drop the eye contact as his glass connects with mine. I feel my hands trembling, small droplets of the alcohol falling to the floor from my shaky grip. Alex pulls back and I repeat his actions before swallowing the liquid. It burns my throat as it slides down and I squeeze my eyes shut, swallowing it with effort.
“Urgh!” I grimace, opening my eyes to find Alex wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. He chuckles quietly, pushing the second shot towards me. I smile widely, taking hold of it.
“Down it!” I tell him and he nods, swinging his head back as he lifts the glass to his mouth. I do the same and shudder as it travels down my throat, burning my insides with a newly lit flame. I feel the effects of the alcohol almost immediately, excitement buzzing inside me.
When I open my eyes, Alex is leaning against the bar, watching me. I let out a nervous giggle, wiping the corner of my mouth with my finger. He leans forward, taking the shot glass from me. His fingers lightly brush my skin and I shiver again despite the hot temperature inside the room.
“I’m impressed,” he murmurs down my ear.
