“I don’t trust him,” I grumbled under my breath. “Should we follow him?” I asked Kayla, but when I looked for where she was, she had disappeared. “Great, I’m abandoned!” I shouted out loud. I blushed and hung my head in embarrassment before I realized that no one had heard me over the music. I sighed and decided to wander the club for a little bit. All over the place, people were grinding, making out, having sex, you name it, and it was impossible to figure out where I was. At last, I found a twisting metal staircase that lead to an upstairs balcony that was slightly less crowded. As I made my way upstairs, the music softened and I leant over the railing and watched the people below. On the couch over to the right of me, a couple was getting very…intimate…to say the least, and aside from them I was the only one up there.

I looked away from the gross sight and back at the dancing people below. “You here alone?” a male voice asked from behind me. I jumped a little in my skin and turned to the source of the noise.

“You scared me!” I said to him.

He laughed slightly and walked to the rail next to me. “My bad,” he chuckled.

“It’s fine, you just nearly gave me a heart attack,” I responded and turned to look at him.

“Again I’m sorry,” he laughed and watched the people below. “But as I asked, are you here alone?”

“Well, I was here with my friends, but it appears that they’ve got better things to do than make sure I get lost,” I replied. I had decided that I didn’t feel like explaining the Wyatt fiasco with this stranger, so I had left him as a friend.

“Ah, well I’m sure they’ll turn up,” he laughed. “Everyone manages to disappear in this place at some point or another.”

“You know, it’s funny that you say that, my one friend disappeared without a trace, it was like one second she was right next to me, and the next she was just gone,” I told it.

“That can happen sometimes,” he told me, still not removing his eyes from the scene below us. “Only to certain people, but it does happen.”

“Yeah well, I don’t know, I didn’t really expect to be dragged into this situation at all,” I muttered under my breath and looked down at the club again.

“Neither did I,” he said, shaking his head. “You see that girl down there?” he asked me, pointing to a blonde dancing with a tall brunette.

“Blondie with the hooker heels?” I asked him.

He chuckled, “yeah her.”

“What about her?” I asked.

“That should be me dancing with her,” he sighed. “But people made some mistakes, really, really big mistakes, and for now it isn’t me.”

“I’m sorry,” I said, unsure of what else to say.

“No, don’t be,” he reassured me. “Don’t pity me.”

“I don’t—,” I started before he cut me off.

“You do, you pity me, but you shouldn’t, after all it’s mostly my fault.”

“Do you want to explain it?” I asked him, unsure of how to comfort this man.

“I don’t think I’m allowed to,” he chuckled dryly. “But you’ll find out, all in good time.”

“I don’t understand,” I said as I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

“You aren’t supposed to Chas,” he said, looking away from the dance floor to look at me.

“How did you know my name?” I asked him, suddenly afraid.

“You’re so beautiful,” he whispered. “Why did she have to torture me like this?” he asked himself.

“Sir, are you okay? Do you need some help? I could get someone…” I trailed off unsure of what I was supposed to do.

“And you have the light in your eyes, it’s been so long since I’ve seen that light,” he whispered.

“Sir, please, if you need help just—“

“Baby, please don’t lose the light,” he asked me.

“Look I think you have me confused with someone else…” I said as I started to back away slowly.

“No!” he shouted and grabbed my wrist tightly.

“Sir, I-I think you’re confused,” I told him as calmly as I could. In truth, I was afraid that something would happen to me, and all I could do was try and get him to go away.

“You don’t know me,” he whispered as he came to a realization. He looked down sharply and said, “no, of course you don’t, you wouldn’t know me now, not this me,” more to himself than to me.

“A-are you alright?” I asked him.

“No, no I’m not,” he sighed, looking up. “You need to be careful Chas, life’s going to change big time, and only you can help it.”

“I really don’t understand…” I trailed off again. He took a step forward and towered above me.

“You aren’t supposed to, Baby, not yet,” he told me as he looked into my eyes.

“Please don’t call me that,” I whispered lightly, but he didn’t hear me. A sudden urgency had spread across his face as he realized something.

“I have to go,” he whispered hurriedly. “But before I do, they say one action can change the future, right? Maybe this’ll help Kayla,” he spoke to himself.

“What are you—“ before I could finish my sentence he leant down and kissed me softly. I closed my eyes and melted into the kiss, forgetting momentarily that this was a complete stranger I was kissing, and just let myself get lost in it. When they say that you feel sparks in a true kiss, they’re more or less lying. But as I stood there kissing a stranger that I barely knew, I felt a little more than just butterflies in my stomach.

“See you soon, Baby,” he whispered before he rushed to the stairs and blended in with the club.

“Wait!” I called after him as I snapped out of the kiss and chased him down the steps. I looked around the club, found no trace of him, and sighed, “I didn’t even learn your name.”
