Counting by the minutes

Part title

He slides his tongue across my lips, and I part them slightly. His tongue slides in and explores my mouth. When he pulls away he has a smirk plastered (like always) across his face.

"You're not bad of a kisser pumpkin" he says huskily. I roll my eyes.

"That wasn't our first kiss" I reply bluntly.

"Yeah, but it was a good kiss" he says, as if the answer was obvious to him.

I chuckle , before he pulled me in for a second kiss, his feet on the sand, my feet floating in the water as he holds me close.

" wanna leave" he whispers through the kiss.

" but we just got here" I say.

" but I want to go somewhere else" he says suggestively. " somewhere we can kiss in private"

Knowing, he'll keep asking and being all stubborn, I finally give in. I grab my coverup and he stops me before I put it on.

"You know, your just going to take it off again right"

I roll my eyes and stuff it in my bag. He grabs my hand and leads me back to the campus. We arrive to his dorm and when we go inside, his roommate Justin is making out with his flavor of the week. He is the biggest player I know.

"Hey Justin, take it to her room. I'm with heather" he snaps. Justin glares at him before leading a half dressed girl out of the room, her giggling and grasping to her arm the whole time.

    "Okay, what do you want to do?" I say innocently, sitting on the couch. I know that he wants to make out but I act as if I don't know that in hopes that we can play jenga instead or something.

    "Don't play dumb heather" he says roughly, before sitting o the couch.

     "I'm not, I just asked-" he cuts me off.

     "You know very well what I want to do" he says suggestively again. He places his hand in the nape of my neck and pulls me in closer until our noses are almost touching. "Very sexy outfit. You've never worn a bikini before" he whispers.

       "Ella made me"

      "Ella's a smart girl" he said, before pulling me onto his lap I a swift motion. He kissed me roughly, moving our mouths in sinc.

      I pull away after a while and look at my phone.

      "I have to go, see you later" I say sweetly, lying about having to be somewhere.

     "Party at Justin's beach house tonight. Show." He says.

     I nod slightly and leave the room. I really do care about him.

     He's just not my soulmate.

     After memorizing another 2 paragraphs of my script, I start to get ready. I'm about to do my hair, when Elle bursts through the door carrying shopping bags.

     "I got us outfits for the party" she sang. I rolled my eyes and chuckled, closing the door behind her and turning to face her.

      "Let's see them" I say with a dead pan tone in my voice. It's gonna be like all the other dresses I usually have to wear to parties, short. Same with just plain old outfits she buys for me for parties.

      "This is yours" she says excitedly, pulling out a white crop top that says, party every day in black letters in the front.

       Along with that are black pumps and black leather, high-waisted shorts. They are way to short for my liking and go up to my belly button.

      "Ugh, do I have to. Can't I just wear my P!ATD shirt instead" I complain. She shakes her head no and hands me the outfits.

      -later-

     I walk into the crowded party and immediately spot Nick.

     I push through the crowd and find him, already drunk.

     Great.

     He is very, flirty, to say the least when drunk. Same as awake, but more.

     "Hey beautiful" he whispers in my ear, kissing my neck, under my ear. I shiver slightly and look up at him.

     "I'm not in the mood for life right now, I've had a tiring day after our date. I'm gonna get a drink to loosen up" I say, heading to the kitchen.

     Soon I'm drunk. All my stresses and problems? Gone.

    I try to find Nick and finally find him talking to some guy on the couch.

     I smile and sit in his lap, kissing him playfully. I also get flirty when drunk.

     He smirks and pulls my into another kiss, turning my body so I face him. The guy next to him leaves and we are left alone, kissing on a couch.

"Nick- not right now" I stop him and pull away. I wasn't doing this tonight. I was drunk, and wasn't thinking straight. I can wait till I find my soulmate.

I look at my wrist.

4:0:24

My birthday was tomorrow, I almost forgot. I don't like to celebrate it, but everyone else does. It's almost midnight, almost the next year for me.

"Almost your birthday, huh?" Nick asks. I nod, smiling slightly at him.

"Cmon, let's have some fun" he wiggles his eyebrows. I laugh, a little more sober now.

"I'm gonna go home now" I sigh and he pouts. I shake my head no and get up. He leads me to the door, and let's me leave after kissing me one last time.

I get home and don't bother to change, I just collapse on my bed. I fall asleep soon and envelope myself into the darkness.
