Dream Lover

Chapter 11:
The club they entered was called “Midnight Sun”. It wasn’t the type of place Bella could see herself frequenting but it was a start to something new. She was here as support for Alice. After all what were friends for? Dina was being drug along as well which suited Bella nicely. The two girls sat and talked about different recipes they wanted to try out and what career paths they wanted to take now. It turned out that Dina’s father owned a restaurant close to Bella’s house.
“Bella why don’t you come fill out an application at the restaurant. I know my father is looking for some new cook staff that was one of the reasons I took that cooking class to begin with.”
“Oh. Are you sure? I wouldn’t want to impose.”
“I’m positive. My father will love you.”
“Okay then I will.”
The others were just coming back to the table with the drinks they ordered when a man came up behind Alice.
“Hello Alice.”
“James.”
Alice squealed like a young girl and threw herself at the man. She introduced him to everyone. James was a good looking man. Not too tall, or bulky. He had dark hair and green eyes. He seemed to really like Alice.
They all sat at the table getting to know one another. The more they talked the more Bella liked these people that were slowly weaseling their way into her heart. She knew she made the right decision to come with Alice tonight even if it was way out of her comfort zone.
As the couples all dispersed to the dance floor; Bella sat and watched all her new friends. Even Dina was asked to dance by a strapping young man who had been watching her from across the bar. Bella wanted what they all had. She thought about what she had to do now. Get the other job, save up money, and get a new place of her own, GET A DIVORCE.
******
Bella was brought out of her thoughts by the voice of a man talking to her.
“Well Darlin what brings you to this type of place?”
Bella would know that drawl anywhere. She glance up and there he stood. Tight Levi’s, black button down shirt hanging open to reveal a white tank top underneath, a black Stetson and a pair of well-worn black cowboy boots. He was a sight for sore eyes.
“I’m out with a friend. She needed my support meeting a new guy.”
“Well that is awful sweet of ya. Ya mind if i sit down?”
“Not at all cowboy.”
“Cowboy?”
“The boots, and hat.”
“I see.”
“So any prospects come to try and get your attention?”
The question caught Bella off guard. She looked up into his eyes and noticed the stormy color of them.
“None so far. But the night is young.”
His reaction made her panties dampen. He was jealous.
“So you’re looking then?”
“I suppose…”
“Well I will have to rectify that situation.”
He stood up next to her and reached out a hand. He was offering to dance with her. She grabbed his hand and he pulled her to the dance floor. Pressing their bodies together she could feel the heat radiating off of him. His smell enveloped her senses and she was once again lost in him.
He began to grind his hips into hers with the beat of the music. It was almost as if they were committing a sexual act on the dance floor still fully clothed. The friction caused every time her core rubbed over his jean clad leg when they moved made her moan. The feel of his hands tightening just slightly on her hips when he dipped her sent tingles up her spine. His warm breath on her neck as he nuzzled his face in her hair, breathing her in. She could combust right there on the dance floor.
Unsure of how much more she could take she, lead him back to the table. Once seated her lips crashed to his. She was almost straddling his lap when she felt his fingers reach her core. When he slowly slide one finger inside her she gasped and laid her head on his shoulder. Panting and moaning as he both increased the number of fingers and the speed to which they moved inside her. She was just about to fall over the edge when she heard her name.
Bella?
She gazed up at him and realized it wasn’t him calling her name.
Bella? Bella?
He slowly removed his fingers from her and quickly kissed her forehead.
“Darlin we will continue this later.”
*********
“BELLA!”
“What?”
Bella shook her head from side to side to clear the pictures of him out of her head.
“I’ve been calling to you for like five minutes…where were you?” Alice asked as she slid into the booth next to her.
Bella sighed as she thought about the former occupant of that exact seat and blushed slightly at the thought of what they were doing. Alice must have saw the blush and recognition sparked in her eyes.
“Seriously? Even when you’re awake?”
“What can I say?”
“Damn, was it good?”
“Wouldn’t know i was interrupted.”
“Shit sorry Bella. Wait! So you’re telling me you would rather sit here and daydream about some guy, when you’re in a club surrounded by many delicious specimens right here in reality?”
“Sorry Alice. I guess he just demands my attention.”
Alice shook her head.
“It’s okay Bella. Hey could you do me a favor?”
“Sure Alice.”
“I’m going back to James’ place with him, you know… to get to know each other better. Would you drive my car back to your place and I will pick it up? You know if Edward sees my car in the drive he is more likely to leave you alone if he thinks I’m in the room with you.”
“Yeah sure Alice…by the way; i like the way you think. I have a feeling we were not finished with what he had planned.”
“Oh Bella.”
Alice shook her head once more. Kissing her friend on the cheek she left with James.
~~~~~~~~~
He was in the barn finishing up his chores when he got lost in thought about Bella. Wondering how her ceremony went? If she got through her speech okay? Did her and Alice go out and celebrate afterwards?
He went and sat in his small office he had in the barn. He thought about the dress she was wearing in their last meeting… He took notice that the blue in the dress matched his eyes. Would she still be wearing it now when she was out with her friends?
…….
He hadn’t realized what had happened till he woke up in the barn and it was dark. She was out at a club. Or had been? He couldn’t be sure but he knew that he was nowhere near finished with her; and he told her as much.
He made his way into the house just as his phone rang…
“Hello”
“Hey man how’s it goin?”
“Great. What about you?”
“Same as always. Out with my lady right now but I thought I would ring you.”
“Does she know ya calling me right now?”
“No. But the reason I called is because I think I found the perfect woman for you. I know you have been lonely out there.”
“Ya are seriously not tellin me ya called me on your night out with ya girl to tell me ya found some girl that ya think is perfect for me? How would ya even know what I’m lookin for? How do ya know i haven’t already found myself a girl?”
“Dude you never leave that house so i know you haven’t met anyone. Secondly you’re my cuz I know exactly what you like. Third I know she is perfect for you because you two are one in the same. Cut from the same cloth, two peas in a pod…and all that other shit.”
“Well it just so happens your wrong. I do leave the house. And I have met a girl. We’ve been seein each other for a while now. I’m positive she is the one for me.”
“Shit dude. Why didn’t you tell me this?”
“Cause it’s none of ya business what i do out here. Now get back to your woman and let me be.”
“Yeah yeah…go snuggle with your books.”
“Funny. I’ll talk ta ya later.”
“Yeah later. Oh and I wanna know all about this girl.”
“Whatever. I’m going.”
The phone clicked. What the hell was he thinking? He just told his cousin he was seeing someone! What if this supposed perfect girl for him was just that? She was real and not a dream. But he wasn’t so sure Bella was a dream anymore either. He ran his hand across the scratch marks that littered both his shoulders. He smiled to himself as he thought about finishing what they had started earlier in the day. He got up and went off to shower and batten down for the night. Tonight he had a point to make.
