    I tuck my head into his chest and let him lead me again.  Trying to stop the tears when they won't stop falling becomes impossible.  He doesn't say a word during this dance and I turn to walk away as soon as it's over.  This song is unbearable and says so many things I want to say to him.  Why would he insist on torturing me through that whole song?
    The line to the bathroom is long, but a few of the women let me pass through quickly.  I'm guessing it's the tears running down my face that warrants their kind gesture.
    I take the time needed to not look like a complete freak when I walk out of the bathroom.  Having an audience while I break down even further isn't a perfect scenario, but I have to work with what I have.
     
    Walking out of the bathroom, I dread seeing him again.  I need to get a grip.  We are great friends.  We'll never be more than that.  He's not capable of anything more. 
    I do my best to stroll up to the bar and ask for another shot with confidence.  He meets me and buys us both a drink. 
    Avoiding the monster in the room is his specialty.  He begins to tease me and lightens the conversation to an easygoing feeling.  I choose not to dance anymore.  We need to eliminate any chances of me acting like a fool again if possible.
    As the night goes on, the shots continue to go down.  He starts to run his hands over my back and puts his arms around me more than usual.  I'm starting to get whip lash from his on and off behavior.

    This night has been one of the strangest yet.  I'm having so much fun one minute, the next I've obviously upset Lilly.  It seems that we're past whatever it was that had her in tears.  I know she's going through a lot right now, but I plan to be here for her when she needs me.
    Our drinking has continued and I'm pretty sure we're both completely lit.  I wave at Aiden and he starts to round up all the guys. 
    Aiden has the driver take us back to the hotel and I help her to her room.  She's walking on her own just fine, she's just loud and having a lot of fun. 
    I help her open the door to her room and she grips my shirt with both hands and pulls me into her room.  Her mouth crashes into mine and we both begin to tongue battle. 
    Her desperate tugging on my shirt is awkward since she's shorter than me, so I help her lift it off.
    "You're too fucking sexy for your own good."  Her boldness makes me laugh.  I know she's drunk.  This sucks.  I can't do this with her after everything we've just been through.  If we do this again, I need her to understand where I'm coming from.
    I continue to kiss her.  This I can do and not feel like a complete jackass in the morning.  I need to know that she'd have sex with me sober before I let this happen. 
    Trying to calm her down long enough to defuse the fire between us both is not an easy task.  I turn her around to face away from me long enough to catch my breath and talk to her.
    "Let's talk about this in the morning.  Tonight I'll just stay with you, to sleep and nothing more."  She seems to understand and starts to climb into the bed.  I watch her like she's a wild animal that could strike at any moment until she slides under the covers. 
    I hate sleeping in jeans, but I guess I have no choice.  Lying in bed, I remember my shorts she borrowed.  Luckily, they're on top of her bag when I open it.  I'm pulling them up just as she stands up on the other side of the bed.  Her eyes focus right on my dick, and I slide the shorts up quickly to try to salvage my plan to wait.
    She lifts her shirt over her head, drops her skirt and panties, then reaches around to drop her bra.  In less than ten seconds, she's completely naked.  She climbs back in bed and slides under the covers, grabbing her pillow in a cuddle hold like I've never seen before.
    I think about this for a second.  This is Lilly.  We'll always have something special.  I can't ruin everything again if I don't know how she
