Chapter 2 Handsome Stranger

Lily got back home and cooked for herself a homemade meal which she haven't had in a very long time

Lily's occupation took the most part of her life, she'd always go to work very early in the morning and come back very late in the night, during the weekends when she doesn't go to work, she spends all her time drawing and working on her art piece at home so most of the time, she ends up ordering food

But today, she's at home on a work day and she's having a good hearty meal today

"This is nice" she muttered as she savored her Mac and cheese

She finished eating and laid on the couch watching Netflix

It's been a long time she watched a movie

Everything she hasn't done in a long time, she was gonna do today, she's definitely gonna have fun!

But Lily couldn't even finish her movie, she dozed off before the movie even got to it's climax and it was her ringing phone that woke her up

She sluggishly picked up her phone without checking the caller's name

"Hello, who's this?" she asked yawning

"Who's this? It's 7pm and you aren't still at my house Lily!!" Anna yelled over the phone and Lily sprang up

"What?! I slept for that long?" she asked glancing at the clock hanged on her wall

"Are you asking me that? You better get your ass here quickly Lily else I'm leaving with my friends and without you" Anna said

"Oh no Anna, you can't go without me, don't worry I'll be there soon" Lily said and ended the call

She dashed off to her room and had a quick shower in her bathroom

She had to look exquisite today so she selected a fine red gown with a black heel

She styled her hair and quickly applied a little make-up

There it is, she looks perfect

She can't even remember the last time she dressed up to go anywhere by this time so it was fun

She grabbed a black purse and dashed out of her house

Luckily she quickly got a cab and she got to Anna's place in no time

Anna and her friends were already outside waiting for her

"I know I'm late and I am really sorry guys" Lily apologized to everyone

There were 2 guys standing alongside Anna

Lily recognized one of them as Gabriel, Anna's boyfriend

"Hey Lily, it's been a long time I saw you" Gabriel said and Lily beamed a smile at him

"Yeah, courtesy of work" Lily said

"I was going to get angry at you for being late but then again, how can anyone be angry at a beauty like you" the other guy said staring at Lily

"Oohh umm.... Thank you" Lily muttered

"Name is Jason, and you are?" The guy asked bringing his hand out for a handshake

"Lily" Lily said as she shook Jason's hand

"Okay, let's go guys" Anna said and they all climbed on into the white SUV parked in front of them

"Who's car is it?" Lily asked Anna as they climbed on to the backseat

"Jason's" Anna whispered

"And I think he likes you"

"What?"

"I showed him your picture before you came and he said you look really great, maybe you could hook-up with him tonight" Anna whispered

"What are the girls talking about back there?" Jason asked as he drove

"Just a little girl's talk" Anna replied

Jason drove for about 15 minutes before finally getting to the club

"Okay girls, here we are" Gabriel announced as they alighted from the car

Anna grabbed on to Gabriel and she turned back and winked at Lily

"Mind going in with me?" Jason asked as he brought his hand

Lily stared at Jason

This is it Lily, she wanted to prove that she wasn't an oldie and she could have fun unlike that jerk believes so this is her chance

And Jason is actually charming so she has nothing to lose

"Why not" Lily finally said as she held Jason and they walked into the booming club together

"Where's Anna?" Lily asked as they sat down on a table and she couldn't see Anna

"There, she already went to dancing floor with Gabriel" Jason answered pointing Anna out in the dancing crowd

"Oohh" Lily mouthed

"Do you want to dance too?" Jason enquired

"Oh no, not really" Lily said quickly

Why the hell is she suddenly developing cold feets, for God's sake she came here to have fun

"So, how long have you known Anna? You guys seemed pretty close" Jason said

"Yeah we've known each other since high school and we went to art school together" Lily replied

"What about you? I've never really seen you with Gabriel"

"Definitely not, I'm his boss at work, I don't usually go clubbing but I wanted to have a good time tonight and he offered to bring me here" Jason explained

"Same with me, last time I went clubbing was when I just turned 18, I've been so occupied with work so I decided to at least come have fun today" Lily said

"Then I must definitely make sure you have a fun night tonight" Jason said as he slowly placed his hands on Lily's

"Should I order for a drink?" he asked

"Umm.....of course but umm.... I'd like to go to the restroom first" Lily said as she stood up but instead of the rest room, she stepped out of the club and went to the back of the building where it was dark and quiet

Why was she feeling uncomfortable? This wasn't the plan

The plan was to have a blast tonight, hook up with a cutie and spend the rest of the night having some crazy sex and Jason is perfect for that so why is she backing out now?

Or is that jerk right? Is she really an oldie that doesn't know how to have fun?

"If you came to have fun then go inside and stop disrupting the silence here" someone suddenly said and Lily turned back to see a tall guy in a black tuxedo leaning against the wall and holding lighted cigar stick

"What?"

"You were being noisy" the guy said as he smoked his cigar

"Was I.....Was I thinking out loud?!" Lily asked the strange guy she just met

"Unless I have some strong mind reading power, I wouldn't have heard all you just said would I?" the guy asked and Lily sighed sadly

This is so embarrassing

How could she be thinking out loud without even knowing, she hoped this guy here didn't hear everything she said or he'll see her as a pervert

"You seem to be having a rough night, want one?" the guy said as he brought out a cigar stick for Lily

"What? No, I don't smoke" Lily said

"You are a good girl then, no wonder you aren't able to have fun" he said

"Good girl?"

"Well good girls don't smoke" the guy said

"I don't plan on being a good girl tonight" Lily said as she grabbed the cigar stick from the guy and placed it on her mouth

"Well, don't you have a lighter?"

The guy shrugged and handed Lily a lighter

Lily lighted her cigar and inhaled a puff of air from it, then she started coughing

"Oh my" Lily said amidst coughing

"Lily!" Lily heard Jason's voice calling and looking for her

"Oh my God, he should not find me here, what will he thinks if he finds me here in this dark place with a guy and smoking a cigar" Lily worried

"Are you the one that guy calls? Is your name Lily?" the guy asked and I nodded

"I should probably go, here thanks for the cigar" Lily said as she brought out her hand to give back the cigar stick to this stranger she just met

"You said you don't want him to see you" the guy said as he grabbed Lily's arm and began to run

Lily's eyes were on the stranger holding her hand as they ran

Who is this guy? And why is she so comfortable around him?

They ran till they got to a bench by the roadside, far away from the club and they sat down

"What was that about? That guy was with me and I was going to go back to him!" Lily said

"I didn't want you to go back" the guy said looking at Lily

The way this guy makes bold eye contact with her stirs something up in Lily, something she couldn't explain

"Why? Why didn't you want me to go back?" Lily asked

"Lily? Is that really your name?" the guy asked with an emotion filled voice still staring at Lily

"Y....yes" Lily stuttered

"You know my name now so what's your name too?" Lily asked

"Leonardo" the guy said

"Leonardo like named after the great artist Leonardo Da Vinci?" Lily enquired

"What?! Definitely not, I am no artist" Leonardo said and Lily laughed

She noticed that this strange guy, Leonardo, never stopped staring at her and she was begining to loose herself in this strange guy's gaze

The guy stared at her for a few minutes, in those minutes, the silence was very much uncomfortable for Lily as she slowly lost herself in the stranger's deep and emotion filled eyes and the sexual tension rose between them

"You said you wanted to have fun tonight" Leonardo finally said breaking the intense emotion between both of them and Lily managed to nod

"Then have fun with me" he said taking Lily by surprise

She wanted a one night stand with a cute guy and this guy here, he's much more than cute, his appearance was like that of a model

Maybe she will regret choosing to have fun with this stranger here but that's the point of a one night stand right? Having a crazy sex night with a stranger

"Sure" Lily smiled at Leonardo.....
