"Okay so I've called you all here to discuss something very important," Lacy had invited the whole group to her dorm to discuss something we all didn't know about. She walked back and forth, swaying her hips. She had a notebook and a pen in her hand.

"Which club are we going to tonight?" She asks in all seriousness. I look at her dumbfounded? This is the important thing she had to ask us? Seriously?

"That's why you called us all at, 8:00 am on a Saturday?" Dylan yawns. I agree, its way to early to be up. "I'd rather be sleeping right now."

"Yes. This is important!" She exclaims, throwing her arms in the air. Her brown hair flies all over the place. She looked crazy. "So where do you guys suggest we go?"

"How about The Blue Moon, its only 30 minutes away from here?" Mason suggests. I've never been there. I've actually never been to any clubs here. I've been here for a couple of months now yet I've never went out.

"I don't know, I don't really like that place." Lacy answers but writes it down on her notebook.

"Since when?" Erica looks at her with a confused expressions. "We used to go there all the time. It used to be your favorite or so I thought?"

"Since Mason suggested it." She says.

Everyone rolls their eyes. I get that she hates him for what he did but that is very childish. She needs to put that feeling aside when she's trying to make plans with her friends.

"We are going there whether you like it or not." Marcus steps in. This is the first time I've heard him talk honestly. We aren't that close and he's always busy with class.

"Whatever."

"Ugh, I hate shopping." Lyndsey groans in annoyance as we walk around the dress stores. Lacy needed a new dress for tonight. Not sure why she couldn't have worn one of her old ones or one she bought the last time we went shopping.

I'm kind of excited for tonight. It will be nice to take a break from school and just let loose for once. I feel like I'm always stressed or angry about something so this should be good to get rid of all of that.

"What about this one?" Lacy ask. She was wearing a tight salmon colored dress. Its not my taste but it looks good on her.

"Get that one." Lyndsey says in a bored tone. She was playing on her phone. I don't even think she looked up at the dress.

"You're just saying that's so we can leave." She frowns. Lyndsey just shrugs and continues with whatever she's doing on her phone.

After about five more dresses, Lacy finally picked the salmon colored one. "So, you guys want to go get our nails done or something?" Erica suggests. We all agree.

I had saved up some cash that my mom had sent me to help out with groceries. Getting my nails done this once wouldn't hurt.

Finally we arrived back home. It was only 3:00pm so we still have 6 hours until we plan to leave. I had nothing to do so I went home to finish an homework I had so I don't have to worry about it tomorrow. I was completely focused until I heard the door open and close. I look up to see Mason.

"I thought you were hanging out with the girls?" Mason asks. He places what looks to be a baseball bag on the floor. I didn't know he played baseball?

"I've had enough shopping for today. I thought you were hanging out with the boys?" I copy his words.

He shrugs and then smirks. "I've had enough video games and catch for today."

It was quiet for a while. I was working and Mason was texting someone on his phone. "Hey, do you want to watch a movie until its time to go?" I was shocked. He really wants to watch a movie together. I had my outfit for tonight already picked out and it would only take a few minutes to do my hair and make up so why not.

"Sure. Can I pick?" He nods and sits on our couch.

We watched a couple movies. At 7:30 we stopped and both got ready. I decided to wear a flowy maroon dress. It wasn't exactly club attire but I think it will be fine.

I was finishing up my make up when the bathroom door opened. Mason walked in and I couldn't help but stare. He looked really good tonight. I'm not even going to yell at myself for thinking that, it was true. I stop staring when I hear him clear his throat. My cheeks instantly heat up.

"Are you ready?" He asks. I nod in response and follow him out the door.

There were two cars. Lyndsey and Dylan offered to be the designated drivers tonight. That's very thoughtful of them. The girls rode with Lyndsey and the guys rode with Dylan. After 30 minutes we finally arrived at the club.

It seemed very fancy. There was a line blocked by a velvet rope. We didn't have to give our I.Ds which I thought was really weird. Anyone could pass through, unless the bouncer just assumed my age. Looks like they need a new bouncer.

The music was blaring and there were a bunch of drunk, sweaty people dancing. My group ended up going different ways. I decided to go get a drink at the bar.

"One shot of crown please." The bartender takes my money and makes my drink. A few drinks later, I was bored, a little drunk and really wanted to dance. I look around for someone I know. The only person I find is Marcus. He must have been looking for someone to because when he saw me his face lit up and he walked over to me.

"Alex, would you like to dance with me?" He asks, reaching his hand out to me. I really wanted to dance so I accept right away. We move to an empty spot on the dance floor. Marcus's hands find my hips and we dance to the music. My hips sway back and forth and he pulls me as close as possible, to his chest.

"You're a really great dancer." He hums in my ear. I giggle as it tickles my ear. I tell a thank you back, hoping that he's hear me.

"You know, we should talk more. You seem like a cool girl." He places his lips on the spot below my ear. Once again I giggle at the feeling.

"Look Marcus, I don't mean to be rude but-

"Hey can I take a turn." I look to see Mason. His eyes held something I couldn't really read. Marcus let's go of me and begins walking away. Right away Mason pulls me against him. His arms circle around my waist. I can feel his breath on the back of my neck causing a shiver to run down my spine.

"Are you having fun tonight?" He whispers in my ear. I can smell the alcohol on his breath. I just nod in response because I knew he wouldn't be able to hear me over the music. Out of nowhere, I am turned around.

Our faces are inches apart with him leaning down to me. "You look beautiful tonight. " I blush at his words and look down. I don't know why I was embarrassed. It may be the crown taking affect.

He lifts my chin so I'm looking at him. His gaze moves from my eyes to my lips. He places both of his hands on my cheeks.

He started to lean forward and I could feel the butterflies in my stomach. He was going to kiss me. Mason wanted to kiss me. ANS I most definitely wanted to kiss him.

He was moving slow and I was becoming impatient. I think he could sense that because his lips finally came in contact with mine.

Burning Passion. That is all I felt. I knew I was going to regret this later. But for right now, I was loving this. Mason was mine, just for this moment.

I tangle my hands in his hair, lightly pulling on the short strands. He lets out a incoherent noise and suddenly bites my bottom lip, pulling it in and then letting it go. I take that moment to catch my breath before pulling him back in.

He once again bite my bottom lip to make me open my mouth a little more. Or tongues intertwined and I couldn't help but tug on his hair a little harder.

A few minutes later we both pulled away. Mason pulled me into his arms and I rested my head on his chest. Once again, he was mine tonight and I couldn't be happier. He ran his hands through my hair and I relaxed into his hold.

"Guys, I hate to break up this sweet moment but we gotta go. "Dylan comes over and grabs both of our wrists and drags us out of the club.

Dylan made sure Mason and I had made it back to our apartment. Mason and I both walked in. I take of my heels and throw them randomly across the room. Out of nowhere I am pushed up against the wall and Masons lips are back on mine.

Once again, it was a few minutes before we pulled away. "Come on." Mason grabs my hand and walks me over to his side of the room. He falls onto his bed, pulling me down with him. He pulls the blankets over us and wraps his arms around my waist. I cuddle into his side, resting my head on his chest. I liked the feeling of being in his arms. "Goodnight. " Mason whispers and then kisses my forehead. I was asleep before I was able to respond.
