"The clubs packed, don't you think?" Ayesha asks as we head to our tables next to each other

"The clubs packed, don't you think?" Ayesha asks as we head to our tables next to each other.

"I wonder why?" I ask and she chuckles.

"I'm sure they heard about your magical little body," she teases and I roll my eyes.

"Or about the freakishly flexible girl," I grin and she shakes her head.

"Freakishly?" she narrows her eyes at me and I can't help but laugh. "Now that's just cold," she whispers as we separate to serve our tables.

I hand the three guys their drink and Joey takes a sip before stopping me.

"Hey suga, you mind if I have a seat at the bar?" he asks and I look over.

"Sure," I nod. "Come on."

I lead him to the bar and he sits down. I walk around and put my hands down onto the counter top.

"Please don't tell me you're one of those guys who fall in love and become extremely clingy," I say and he smiles.

"I'm one of those guys who fall in love and want to spend every waking moment with her."

"So..." I trail off. "Clingy?" I smile and he chuckles. He gestures his drink towards me and takes a sip. "You're cute Joey," I nod and he smiles.

My smile immediately fades as Antonio walks up to the bar with the women I saw him with the other night.

He pulls the stool - next to Joey - back for her and she sits down. He sits down after and I feel blood rush to my head.

"Excuse me," I smile at Joey and he nods.

Why does the bar have to be so full tonight.

"What can I get you?" I ask looking between them and Antonio nods towards her.

"Look at you being a gentleman," she teases and the corner of his lips lift into a small smile.

I fought everything inside of me to not roll my eyes deep into my head.

"I'll have a cocktail," she smiles at me.

I nod, looking over at Antonio.

"Whiskey." Is all he says, not even looking up at me and I bite down onto my jaw.

I turn and start making their drinks.

Why do I feel so... angry.

I don't feel anything for him but somehow seeing him with another women fills me with... jealousy?

No way.

I feel my heart clench and my throat dry. I was squeezing the glass in my hand so hard, I'm surprised it didn't shatter right then and there.
