I quickly turned from the stage to face the bar, my eyes still wide. Everything in my being was telling me to bail. I couldn't though, Lucas was busy, and we were 30 minutes from home. They guy from the bathroom, he was friends with Danny. The bar tender came over and asked if I wanted anything to drink,

"Yeah, can I get a vodka sour and a shot please." I said, drinking was the only thing that would get me through this. I reached for my bag to get cash,

"You're with the band right?" He asked. I stopped for a moment,

"Yeah," I replied

"They don't pay so don't worry about it," He said sliding the cash back to me. Nice, I thought mentally. I downed the shot and started sipping on my drink, when I felt brave enough I turned around. My eyes first went to Danny. Sammy was right, he was an amazing drummer. He gave me a soft smile when he saw me staring at him. I smirked back at him before my eyes then traveled to the curly haired singer. He gave me another wink when he saw me looking, and I turned my attention back to my drink. I listened as they played the rest of their set, they were pretty good, granted I wasn't expecting much from a college band. I downed a few more drinks and a couple shots before I heard the last song end and then them thank the crowd. I felt a hand on my waist, I held my breath as I turned around,

"What did you think?" Danny asked as I turned around, Sam standing at his side

"Ya'll were great, I was pleasantly surprised" I said trying not to slur my words.

"I'm glad you liked it," Danny smiled at me as he leaned past me to order a drink, his hand lingering on my back. I scanned the bar and saw the guy from the bathroom making his way over to me, my heart started to race, my face getting hot. I grabbed my drink off the bar and downed it. The guy got to us and stopped beside Danny and Sam, "Josh this is-"

"Rosie, fancy seeing you here." He said smugly, leaning on the bar next to me. Josh was his name apparently.

"You two know each other?" Danny asked confused. I opened my mouth to speak but Josh beat me to it.

"We do, we got very well acquainted at that party last week." Josh said with a smirk, sipping the drink he had ordered. Danny looked at me with hurt eyes, Sam just raised his brow.

"Acquainted as in..?" Sam paused and Josh gave him a look verifying. Sam then turned to me, "Didn't you just tell Daniel you didn't want anything with anyone right now?" He crossed his arms, a devilish smile on his face. Little shit loved stirring the pot. Everyone's eyes landed on me, and I felt my face turn bright red.

"I-just-I" I started, a loss for words

"Leave her alone Sam." Danny said grabbing his arm and dragging him away and to the other end of the bar. Now it was only me and Josh.

"I'm Josh by the way," Josh said sitting next to me

"Yeah, I got that." I said as I turned back to the bar and ordered another drink,

"So, I see you are in Daniel's shirt, you acquainted with him too?" he asked turning to where his knees were pressed into the side of my thigh as he talked,

"Why, are you jealous?" I shot back, cause really it wasn't any of his business.

"Maybe a little," He shrugged before sipping from his glass. That answer shocked me, this beautiful man was jealous over me?

"You barely know me, how could you possibly be jealous." I asked in disbelief

"Well, I had a good time at the party, and I wanted a chance to get to know you better, but you ran off. I'm just a little jealous Danny has gotten to." he said plainly. I stared at him for a moment, he was being genuine and it made me smile.
