we meet up with a few friends and head to a local club for more drinks and dancing. I should probably be a bit more conservative with my dancing but it has been so long since I have been out I cannot help myself. The night gets even better after Jace has enough alcohol in him to make his way out to the dance floor. This is a total surprise to me since he blatantly stated during one of our many phone conversations that he does not dance.
Thank goodness I wore a pair of comfortable jeans and a halter top tonight because now I am a sweaty mess. Jace and I have been dancing for almost an hour nonstop and I need to refresh my parched body. I lean toward him and yell over the music that I am headed for another drink and motion towards the bar. Jace nods his head and follows. At the bar, Jace orders another Bud Light and I get a bottle of water and a shot of Southern Comfort. I take a few swallows of my water and turn towards Jace to toast the shot before downing it. As I bring my head back straight I notice someone at the front door of the club.
Damn it! What the fuck is he doing here?
Gavin is standing just inside the front door with the bouncer and an ALE agent. Every hair on my body feels electrified when our eyes meet and I realize he is studying me. I quickly down the rest of my water bottle and grab Jace dragging him back out to the dance floor. Jace shrugs his shoulders and joins me when I begin to grind against his body on the floor. This is not the same dancing we were doing just a few minutes ago. This is me showing Gavin that I have moved on.
I feel like a laser is burning through me as I turn and back up against Jace on the dance floor. Closing my eyes I raise my arms and wrap my hands around Jace’s neck and he circles my waist with his. I can feel his hard on pressed to my back as he grinds into me. When Jace lowers his head and nips at the sensitive area where my neck meets my shoulders I open my eyes to meet the intense glare of Gavin. I grin at him and he turns, shaking his head before exiting the building.
Score one for Jordan.
We leave the club about a half an hour later with Jessie being the designated driver and chauffeuring us back to her apartment where we all parked our cars. Jace and I sit in his truck making out until we realize the sun is coming up. One last kiss goodbye and I am off to my mom’s house to pick up the kids. With no sleep and a slight hangover, this is going to be a long day. Hopefully she will let me take a short nap before I take the kids home.

Mom wakes me around noon so she can go shopping and I can get home. I feel a little rested and my hangover has subsided.
“So, how did everything go last night?” Mom asks.
“Really good. I had fun and I think Jace did too. I really like him, he is fun to be around and we have a lot in common.”
“Well that is great. Maybe you will stay away from Gavin now.”
“Mom, don’t start. I have not spoken to him since New Years. I told him it was over and I meant it.”
“And how exactly is he taking it?”
“Not well. He has gotten better lately. He doesn’t call as much.”
“Is he still stalking you?”
“He is not stalking me! He has only drove by the house a few times in the last few months.” I lie, knowing good and well I am not telling her about the incident last night. “Well I am going to get going before we get into an argument over the past. Thank you for letting the kids stay the night. I really needed a break.”
“ You’re welcome but you don’t need to thank me. Those are my grandbabies and I love spending time with them. Call me later.”
“I will.” I answer as I corral the kids to the car.
