midday sun was shining through the streets, making shadows of trees and lamps on the ground while sunshine was walking through the leaves that had fallen on the ground, sipping her new favourite coffee from the coffee shop…
she was wearing ballerines with a skirt and sweater while holding her hoodie in her other hand…the weather was slowly starting to change even tho the sun was still shining…it wasn’t as warm as it used to be at the start of september and sunny could feel the cold air every time the wind passed by her…
the bell rang softly above her when she stepped inside, finally feeling the warmth because the sun wasn’t that warm like it used to be…sunny’s eyes were looking around when she got further through the alley and her eyes suddenly spotted a white shirt…a hand covered in tattoos…putting a box on the ground while those messy hairs were falling to his face…
she immediately recognized him… “you don’t have a hoodie…” sunny spoke in surprise but with a smile on her face. matt looked up at her with a sigh… “what do you need?” he shrugged off her question, looking not talkative as always…
sunny tilted her head a little while looking at him… “you should be more polite to customers,” sunny made fun of him, trying to make him smile or at least get some kind of reaction from him…
but he wasn’t in his sudden mood of talking like he was the night before…he just stared at her, not feeling entertained by her presence, which made sunny slowly become embarrassed and shy…
she suddenly started playing with the sleeve of her sweater, looking down for a second before looking back at him.
“your hoodie…” she said softly with a small smile and handed it to him… matt looked down at the hoodie in her hands before taking it from her.
“oh…thanks.” he simply responded and sunny just smiled at him…she didn’t really know what else to say…she was expecting maybe a little more after last night.
maybe another smile. maybe some stupid comment. but matt already turned his attention back to the boxes…
“um…i’ll see you…around,” she said with a smile and waved at him… “yeah, whatever.” he simply said and got back to work.
sunny stood there for another second before finally turning around and walking away. she took another sip of her coffee while trying to ignore the strange feeling in her chest.
maybe he was just tired. maybe he had a bad day. maybe he simply didn’t want to talk. sunny kept telling herself those things while walking away.
she was almost out of the shop when she suddenly heard her name being called… “sunny!” sunny immediately turned around with excitement when she recognized the voice.
“hiii,” sunny said sheepishly when aubrey hugged her while chris was right behind her. “hey…what are you doing here?” chris asked confused as he looked at her. sunny looked back at the shop for a second.
“just…it’s nothing,” sunny shrugged it off, trying not to make it sound like a big deal.aubrey suddenly smiled and pulled something from her bag… “i got you this!!” she held out a ticket for sunny.
sunny looked at it confused before taking it carefully. “what is—” aubrey interrupted her before she could even finish… “it’s a ticket to a club, but there are such good bands…you know, dancing…with us…”
sunny’s eyes immediately sparkled. “that sounds fun!!” she said with a smile, looking at both of them. “so you in???” aubrey asked excitedly.
sunny looked down at the ticket again. “like…this is for me? with you guys?” she asked surprised, almost like she couldn’t believe they actually wanted her to come with them.
both of them nodded. “of course,” aubrey said. “you need to have fun! and a break from that grumpy ass,” chris said while pointing his head toward the alley.
sunny suddenly felt embarrassed. “i was just…giving him a hoodie, it’s nothing like—” “i’m joking,” chris interrupted sunny with a laugh. “i’m glad you are talking with him.” sunny nodded sheepishly, looking down at the ticket again. she smiled a little.
“so???” aubrey asked impatiently. sunny looked at her. then at chris. then at the ticket in her hands. “okay okay…i’ll go,” she finally said with a smile. aubrey immediately smiled widely. “pick you up at 8!” sunny nodded. “okay.”
suddenly a beep of a car echoed through the hall when sunny was putting on lipgloss, signalizing that chris and aubrey had arrived. sunny quickly looked at herself in the mirror, fixing her curls.
she had spent almost an hour trying to decide what to wear even tho she told herself she wouldn’t care. she wanted to look nice. but not too dressed up. she wanted to look pretty. but not like she was trying too hard.
she quickly put on her heels and picked up her purse. she looked at herself in the mirror one last time before smiling at her reflection.
“okay…” she whispered to herself. then she opened the front door with such excitement. aubrey was smiling at her through the passenger seat as sunny hurried to the back seats of the car.
“heyyyy,” sunny greeted them with excitement… “hey sunny,” chris smiled as he pulled out of the driveway. “you look amazing!” aubrey pointed out as sunny sheepishly smiled.
“really?” “yes!” sunny smiled and looked down at her hands. “thank you…” the both of them continued talking the whole way to the club…
aubrey was telling sunny about the bands that were playing while chris occasionally joined the conversation. sunny laughed at some of their jokes and looked out of the window every now and then. she was excited. she didn’t really know what to expect. but she was excited.
when they finally stopped in front of the club, sunny looked out of the window. she looked surprised because she definitely didn’t expect that.
outside of the club there were drunk older men. some were standing outside smoking while others were leaning against the walls and talking loudly. the building itself was small. the sign above the entrance was flickering slightly.
it looked more like a place for unhappily married men to get drunk after work than somewhere sunny would normally go.
she stared for a few seconds. “this is it?” aubrey laughed. “yes!” sunny looked at her with uncertainty. “oh…” she tried to smile. she tried to stay positive.
maybe it was just the first impression. maybe inside it was different. maybe she was just judging it too quickly.
when they stepped out, she could only smell alcohol and cigarettes. sunny immediately followed chris and aubrey inside.
the music was loud and it was the kind of music you would dance to. the bass was almost vibrating through the floor. it was dark and a bar was full of men and younger girls flirting with them.
people were laughing loudly. someone was shouting near the bar. someone else was dancing on a small space near the stage.
sunny looked around with wide eyes. this wasn’t sunny’s thing and she was really surprised it was theirs. she looked at aubrey for a second. aubrey just smiled and grabbed her hand.
“come on!” she pulled sunny toward the dancing crowd. chris followed them and soon he was dancing with aubrey while sunny was close to them.
at first sunny felt awkward. she didn’t really know what to do with herself. she was looking around every few seconds. but after a while she started relaxing.
“okay maybe it’s not that bad” sunny thought to herself. she finally relaxed and started enjoying her time. she was dancing around to the music, minding her own business.
she didn’t know the bands but the music was great. she was moving around with a smile on her face and her hair falling into her face. she laughed when aubrey spun around in front of her. sunny pushed her hair away from her face before continuing to dance.
for a while she completely forgot about everything else. she was just having fun. she felt free.
but when she slowed down a bit, she suddenly realized that she wasn’t anywhere near chris or aubrey. she stopped dancing. she looked around. nothing.
she turned around slowly. she was surrounded by complete strangers. sunny’s smile immediately disappeared. she started looking around the crowd but she couldn’t find them anywhere. she stood on her tiptoes, trying to see over the people. nothing.
she moved to the side. still nothing. sunny started panicking a little bit. she tried to get from the crowd to maybe see better and find them. she squeezed herself between people, apologizing quietly every time she accidentally bumped into someone.
“excuse me…sorry…” she kept looking around. maybe they were near the bar. maybe outside. maybe she had just lost them for a second.
but as she was going through all the people, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist. sunny froze and turned around. it was a guy. older. but he looked okay. at least at first.
“hey sweetheart, like…you all alone?” he asked with a small smirk. sunny looked at him nervously. she tried to be sweet and polite like she always was.
“i’m trying to find my friends…” she explained quietly. “ohhh…” he smiled. “but one dance won’t hurt, right?” he said and got his hands around her waist.
sunny was looking at him surprised. she didn’t like how close he suddenly was, but she didn’t want to be rude. “i…” she hesitated. “come on…just one,” he said. sunny looked around again. she still couldn’t see aubrey or chris. she finally nodded a little. “okay…just one.”
she was always trying to be sweet and polite to everyone. even when she felt uncomfortable. even when she wanted to say no. they were dancing together.
sunny was smiling politely as he just had a smirk on his face. she kept her hands away from him as much as she could, trying to create some distance between them.
“so what’s your name?” he asked. “sunshine,” she responded with a small smile. “what a pretty name.” sunny nodded awkwardly… “thank you…”
his hand slowly moved lower on sunny’s waist. sunny immediately stiffened. she looked down at his hand before looking back at him. she didn’t like this. she really didn’t like this.
his hand moved lower again. sunny took a small step backward. “i’m sorry but this is too much,” sunny said as she was about to leave.
she was always too sweet to everyone even when she felt uncomfortable. but this was too much. she turned around to leave. unfortunately, he grabbed sunny back.
“oh come on, the fun only started,” he smirked. sunny shook her head. “no, i’m sorry, i have to go.” she responded still trying to be polite.
she didn’t want to make him angry. she just wanted to leave. “oh sweetheart, you have a time, come on.” he took her by her wrist and started pulling her away from the crowd. sunny immediately tried to get away.
“wait…” her voice became nervous. “i need to find my friends.” he didn’t listen. sunny tried to pull her wrist away but his grip was too strong…
her heart started beating faster. she looked around the crowd desperately. nobody was looking at her. everyone was too busy dancing and drinking.
“please let go…” she whispered. he kept pulling her. that was when sunny started panicking when he led her to a quieter place. the music slowly became quieter behind them.
the further they went, the more sunny could feel her heart pounding. she didn’t like this. she really didn’t like this. “don’t make it difficult!” he suddenly yelled at sunny. she flinched.
“i’m not, i just want to go back.” she tried to pull herself away again. “let me go!” her voice was louder this time. but he didn’t listen. he pinned sunny against the wall, keeping her in place…
