4. Clubbing
After the touching gift session at Bea's 18th birthday, they all decided to continue the celebration at a lively club in the city, ready to dance and revel in the excitement of Bea's special day.
The club was a lively hotspot, illuminated by colorful lights and filled with pulsing music. The dance floor was alive with movement and excitement, enveloped in a vibrant atmosphere that set the stage for Bea's unforgettable 18th birthday celebration.
Bea was absorbed in taking in the sights of the bustling club when she felt a firm grip around her wrist. She looked down to see Dennis holding her hand, his gaze scanning the crowd. When their eyes met, Bea felt a warmth spread across her cheeks.
Dennis Richards Hernandez
Don't wander off alone, Trix…. This club isn't the safest place for someone like you..
*concerned and protective*
Bea's blush deepened at his words, a mix of amusement and flustered gratitude. She nodded, appreciating his watchful demeanor amid the lively and sometimes chaotic environment of the club.
Journey Richards
Bea... let's head to the counter for a drink.
Jerome Richards
*calls out*
Don't go anywhere alone.
The boys then headed over to a nearby couch, leaving the girls to enjoy their time together.
Journey ordered a couple of "Berry Bliss" mocktails one for herself and one for Bea.
Bea's face lit up with delight as she took her first sip of the "Berry Bliss" mocktail. She found the blend of sweet berries and tangy lemon juice refreshing and delightful.
Beatrice Belrose
Ohh, this is so good.
Journey Richards
I know right... 😆
Beatrice Belrose
Wait... how did you know the name already? Have you tried this before?
*playfully*
Journey leaned in close to Bea glancing over at Jerome before whispering.
Journey Richards
I tried it back in school... The badass boys in our class were into it.
Beatrice Belrose
*surprised*
Really? I had no idea.
Journey Richards
*grins*
It was our little secret. 😁
Beatrice Belrose
*chuckles softly*
Bea and Journey continued their conversation, enjoying the evening at the club. Suddenly, a man approached Bea with a lascivious look in his eyes
Journey Richards
*disgusted*
Dude, back off... We are not interested.
"It's fine if you are not but his little missy looks interested."
Beatrice Belrose
*feelings uncomfortable*
Mister, I am not interested in you either. please leave us alone.
Journey Richards
*sternly*
You heard that? Leave now.
However, the man was stubborn and already intoxicated. He grabbed Bea's wrist tightly and smirked at her, causing Bea to feel alarmed and uneasy.
Suddenly, a strong hand gripped the man's wrist tightly and forcefully pulled it away from Bea. Dennis stepped forward, standing protectively in front of Bea and Journey, shielding them from the unwelcome intruder.
Dennis Richards Hernandez
*firms and unwavering tone*
What's the matter, man? Didn't they say no?
Startled by Dennis's intervention, the man backed off but stumbled into Jerome, who was already looking ready to confront him. Jerome's smirk revealed his readiness to step in if needed, sending a clear message to the unwelcome guest.
Jerome Richards
I have been itching to throw a punch for days.
*hands twitching with anticipation*
The drunk man quickly backed off and retreated, intimidated by Dennis and Jerome's assertive response. Bea felt relieved as he disappeared into the crowd,
But Dennis kept his eyes fixed on the man as he disappeared into the crowd.
Dennis Richards Hernandez
He might try to harass another girl in here... Wait I'll inform security.
Jerome nodded, unfazed by the recent disturbance, and casually ordered a drink. He couldn't resist teasing Journey with a playful jab.
Meanwhile, Bea watched as Dennis disappeared into the crowd after the man. A smile played on her lips as she thought to herself
Beatrice Belrose
(How is the man so good?)
Beatrice Belrose
*sips her mocktail*
(He would make a good boyfriend..)
The unexpectedness of this thought caught her off guard, causing her to accidentally spit out her drink in surprise.
Journey Richards
Whoa, Bea! You alright there?
*laughing tone*
Thinking about Dennis that intensely, huh?
*smirks*
Bea blushed slightly and wiped her face with a napkin given by Journey.
The chapter ends with Bea, Journey, and Jerome relaxing in the club while Dennis took care of the drunk man. They laughed and chatted, enjoying the camaraderie of the moment despite the earlier interruption. Bea stole glances towards Dennis, feeling grateful for his protective nature. The night continued with laughter and good company.
