Chapter 5

🦋Life is tough but so you are.🦋

"Hey, Y/n? You haven't talked this whole time!" Emma said looking to you.

"H-huh? I'm sorry-"

"I know what will get you talking." Emma grabbed a wine bottle and poured it into a glass handing it to you.

You froze on the spot looking at the glass. Was this a good idea?!

"Umm? No, I don't think that's a good idea," you said frowning slightly.

"Oh come on! It'll be fun!" Emma said grabbing a glass and pouring it into your glass. You watched her pour the red wine into the glass and pour the rest in everyone else's.

You can't do this! 'I came alone! I can't drive home drunk.' You started to panic and fiddled with your fingers under the table. Luckily no one noticed.

Anna reaches up to her glass and smiled. "Let's have a toast!" You hesitantly grabbed your glass and clinked it with everyone else's.

They began drinking and you took a small sip and placed it onto the table.

"Oh my gosh, Norman. Look at your face," Ray snickered.

You looked towards Ray to see her was chuckling while Norman rubbed his neck bashfully.

"There's nothing funny Ray," he groaned.

You admired Ray's features taking in his face. His sharp jawline, slightly messy black hair. Black eyes that looked slightly grey... He was so handsome.

A blush made its way in your face just looking at his face.

Anna noticed and raised an eyebrow at you.

You caught her starring at you and you smiled softly before clearing your throat. "Umm.. I'll be back," you said to everyone, excusing yourself from the table.

You backed away in your seat grabbed your things making your way to the restroom.

"Don't take too long!" Emma said in a sluggish voice.

You went into the bathroom and gasped lightly. This... you... "I shouldn't have to come. This was a bad idea.. a very bad idea," you mumbled you went into the bathroom and used it from drinking all of your water because you were so nervous and was trying to keep yourself occupied. And that was by eating and drinking.

You finished what you were doing and walked out of the stall to go wash your hands. "I should come up with an excuse to leave... like... I forgot about leaving my dog something to eat... I left my stove on. No that wouldn't work. Why would I cook before coming out to eat?"

You turned off the water and grabbed some paper towels to dry off your hands. You took the paper and threw it in the trash and looked at your phone to see what time it was. Yeah... you can leave. You've been here for a good while. Just leave your money here and tell them that it was an emergency.

"Okay."

You decided to look for your waiter when he was done talking to other people at another table.

"Umm, excuse me, sir?" He turned around and looked at you with raised eyebrows. "Yes?"

"I wanted to know what was my bill? I'm about to leave and I wanted to pay it by either giving it to you or leaving it at the table."

"Okay, that's fine I'm about to get the receipt right now." You thanked him and stood by the door anxiously waiting for him to come. Time felt like it was going extremely slow and you felt like you were suffocating. You felt like people were watching you all around.
