153 NO THANKS

LUKE’S POV

Since I had gotten a phone call from this crazy woman, I went to meet her. Tiffany had told me that the both of us should meet at this nightclub. And of course, I knew what she wanted to talk about. It was about her pregnancy; that’s even if she was pregnant.

I couldn’t actually tell, though, but I had a feeling that she was just making up all of this, probably to get to me or something. Well, I couldn’t start jumping to conclusions or heeding these thoughts. She might be correct, and I might be the knucklehead around here.

As I moved further into the club, the crowd seemed to part around me, a sea of faces and bodies shifting and swirling in a mesmerizing dance. I found myself drawn towards the bar, the promise of a drink and a momentary respite calling to

Squeezing my way through the throng of people, I finally reached the bar and caught the bartender’s eye. Ordering a drink, I leaned against the counter, taking a moment to survey the scéne around me.

There were people of all kinds in the club–some laughing and chatting, others lost in their own world, their bodies moving to the music in a primal, instinctual way. The air was thick with anticipation, with the promise of something wild and unpredictable hanging in the air.

I sipped my drink, and there was this feeling that went right through me. The music seemed to grow louder and more insistent, urging me to join the dance.
