Touches or Stares (Bada Lee AU)

Chapter 35

I ran after V who's about to go out of the studio

"Hey! V! Which bar are you guys going again?" I asked him, and when he mentioned the same bar that was showing on Maddy post, I agreed right away to go with them 

"Can I change some clothes at my house first then we'll go?" I asked them and the agreed

Currently I'm with V, Gof, Vata, Kai and Tae one of my best friend from Korea and when I told them the studio I'm working at here in LA needs some choreographers they didn't hesitate to come with

We got to my place and I changed my clothes right away

"You look... girly" Vata told me confusedly

"Shut up and drive Vata" I said rolling my eyes at them 

We arrived at the bar and the music is banging the whole place 

I whip out my phone and tried calling Maddy but she's not answering

I tried Kirsten but she's also not responding

I tried other of her new students

"Hello? Sowoen? Is Maddy there?" 

[Oh hi Bada! Maddy! Bada's looking for you, Oh I should tell her you're not here? Bada she's not here] She responded to me giggling

"Sowoen... Tell her to stay where she is and I'll go in before I lose my patience, thank you" I said and hang up the call

"Bada chill, we're here to have fun" Kai said patting me in the back but I completely ignored him scanning the place for Maddy 

"Bada!" I heard a familiar voice called me through the noisy crowd

"Lusher?" She jumped on to me without hesitance

Okay so here's the thing... 

After everything that has happened between me and Maddy, she became expressive with her feelings with the past women that has been involved with me 

She said and I quote Getting shot hurts, I don't want to be shot again so I might consider shooting them instead. 

And honestly, that response of hers is her being nice already.

"U-Uh hi Lush..." I frantically greeted her still looking around the place like a drug addict making sure not to give Maddy any enough reason to go ballistic

"It's been forever! I missed you so much... I studied at Japan after we graduated from high school and I got to say you're the only person I missed" She said and I smiled at her 

"Still not a big talker huh? Come on, I have so much to tell you!" She exclaimed and before i can even respond she was already pulling me out of the bar

Maddy's POV

"Sowoen! Tell Kirsten and Aki I'll come back!" I yelled to Sowoen since the music is too loud

"Where are you going?!" She yelled back 

"Out!" I responded and I stood up and made my way outside the club

I pulled out a cig and lit it up 

"Can I borrow a lighter?" I raised my head to see a towering guy over me with a vigarette between his lips 

"Yeah" I responded, handing the lighter to him 

"Are you new here?" He asked as his stick lits up 

"Is this your way of picking up girls? Coz it's definitely not working" I responded coldly blowing the smoke out of my mouth

"It was actually a genuine question" He replied smiling 

"No... I'm not new here" I said in a monotone

"Why do I feel like I know you?" He said looking at my face intently 

"That's creepy, stop staring at my face" I said to him taking another puff of my cigarette

"Gosh, how long has it been? 8.. 7 years since the last time I saw you I couldn't believe it" I heard a woman's voice screeching through the place and I turned my head 

"Jackson" I heard the guy in front of me said... But I couldn't pay attention to him as my eyes were caught on a girl with a long hair hugging the life out of Bada

I inhaled deeply looking at them 

"Hey... Are you still there?" He asked still the smirk hasn't been wiped off of his face

"I'm sorry what?" I said trying to remember what he said as my brain is preoccupied at the moment

"I said my name is Jackson, how about you?" He asked one more time drawing out his hand for a handshake 

I stared at him ridiculously and shift my eyes to look at Bada and the girl who's laughing as if he wants the whole street to hear it 

"Jackson do you want to dance?" I asked him and before he could answer I grabbed his hand right away
