What If I Do?

Chapter 16: One Exception To Every Rule

"Oh my god I'm sorry," I said and pulled away from Dave.

"It's fine. I've been wanting to do that since before the show actually," Dave replied and I looked at him.

"We should go back out to the living room," I said as he started leaning in again.

"Oh ya I guess. Let's go," Dave said. He stood up and held the door open for me

"Did you get any?" Taylor asked and winked at me as Dave and I sat down on the couch together.

"I don't kiss and tell," I replied and gave him the finger.

Taylor got up and put on some music as we continued to drink. Dave kept his arm around me until I got up, grabbed Abby and Gisele and started dancing to Never Too Much by Luther Vandross. Taylor eventually started dancing with us and eventually worked his way so that he was in the middle of us. I couldn't help but laugh at him being a goofball. Nate and Pat joined in eventually too but I noticed Dave wasn't with us. I turned around and saw him sitting on the couch still. I danced my over to him, going around the back of the couch and stopped in front of him.

"Come dance with us," I said as Dancing With Tears In My Eyes by Ultravox started playing. I kept dancing as Dave looked up at me.

"I'd rather be dancing with just one person," Dave responded with.

"Well get off your ass and dance with me then," I said back and he smiled.

Dave put his drink down on the coffee table before getting up, walking over to me and started dancing. We were both dancing like idiots and it reminded me of when we use to do this when we were together. Gisele and Nate left, giving Pat a ride at the same time because Dave couldn't drive and was staying here. Pat told me to be gentle with him as he leaned against the door frame. I just rolled my eyes and pushed him gently and he headed to Gisele's car. I closed the door and went back to the couch where Dave was sitting waiting for me.

"Where'd T and A go?" I asked. Dave started laughing hysterically and then so did I when I realized what I asked.

"I think they went to his room. I told them to get a room and well now they're gone," Dave replied as I sat down on the coffee table in front of him.

"What have you guys got going on next?" I asked after we had been sitting there for awhile in silence.

"The album comes out and then we fly over to London and Paris for a few shows. What about you? You said you work in a clothing store right?" Dave asked and I nodded.

"Ya but I don't really need to. Stupidly rich family remember. I only go in when I'm bored. My aunt's friend runs the store and doesn't care if I'm there or not," I replied. We sat in silence again.

"Show me around. Give me the grand tour," Dave said as he stood up and held out his hand. I took it and he pulled me up. I lead him a bit down a hallway on one side of the living room.

"That's the room Abby usually stays in when she's here, bathroom, and Taylor's room," I said as I pointed at each of the doors. I then lead him to the other hallway across the living room.

"Bathroom again, my art studio and my room and the master bathroom," I said as I again pointed at each door before leading him into the kitchen.

"I think this is the kitchen," Dave said sarcastically before I could say anything. I giggled and just nodded.

"Dining room is through there which leads back to the living room," I said as I let go of Dave's hand and grabbed two beers from the fridge.

"What about this door?" Dave asked as he pointed at a door beside the pantry.
