Chelsea POV
I wrap my dark green jumper around my waist, and look up at a neon sign that's lighting up my face. The words 'Party Hard.' Are written on it in giant flashing letters.
I walk under the sign and into a poorly lit bar, and the smell of alcohol wafts up my nose.
I sit in a red booth, the table has scratches all over it and the thin layer of black paint is peeling off.
"Is this seat taken?" A man asks in a husky voice, as he pats the seat on the other side of the booth.
"It matters who's asking.." I ask as I look up.
I instantly get surprised, he's new. "I've never seen you around here before" I ask my voice cracking in the middle of the sentence.
He chuckles, I blush.
"Yeah, I just moved here" He says as he pulls his jacket off.
As he takes his jacket off, it releases a woodsy smell. Most likely His cologne.
"My name is Nick" he says as he rakes through his dark brown hair with his hand. "What are you drinking?"
"Chelsea... And Pinot-Nior"
"Bartender, two Pinot-Niors"

In the dim candlelight, we spoke and learnt about each other.
I was surprised at how fast we got a connection, nothing like this has ever happened to me before. It's nice.
He was different than all the other guys I had met, his emerald green eyes sparkled. Or maybe it was just the candle...
The more we talked the more boxes he ticked on my 'Perfect Man' list- Smart, funny, successful and just plain old amazing.
I excused myself to go to the ladies room, I closed the door and looked in the mirror. It was then I saw my rose pink cheeks and meek expression.
WAS I BLUSHING THAT WHOLE TIME?
--
I leave the restroom to see Nick paying, should I pay instead?
I walk over to the booth to stop him, but it is too late...
"I had a great time, Chelsea" He says in his deep voice as he gets up.
"Me too" I say, smiling for the hundredth time, my cheeks feel overworked.
"Here" Nick says as he hands me his phone, it's on new contact. "Could you put your number in?"
"Sure" I say asI quickly tap the digits of my number on the screen.
I hand the phone back then realize he had an Iphone 6s! I hope he will give me one for my birthday...
