Ava squeezed herself through the crowded club making her way to the bar. "5 shots of tequila!" She told the bartender,
"Oh, it's like that tonight?" The bartender, a cute buff guy named Austin said with a grin.
"Finally dumped that cheating asshole, I'm celebrating my freedom" Ava yelled back to be heard over the loud pop music
"Will wonders never cease!" Austin yelled 9back "You and Kenny are finally done?"
"For good this time, no more 'but baby I'll change', Adam fucking Cole can have him"
The college student accepted the tray of shots and waved to the other bartender, Austin's boyfriend Jake, before making her way to the table where Seth, Becky, Violet, and Finn were waiting for her.
"To Ava, may she never again deal with a cheating bastard like Kenny Omega" Violet yelled as the 5 friends toasted and downed their shots.
"I want to get drunk and find some hot guy to fuck me into the mattress!" Ava yelled out
"We're using the 'best way to get over someone is to get under someone else' method tonight?" Seth cackled
"What about finally getting under the Cowboy?" Violet proposed to her best friend
"Please, I fucking wish." Ava sighed "I doubt Adam even likes me like that. We've been study partners for 2 years and he still barely says a word to me that's not related to school. Plus wouldn't that be weird? He used to be Kenny's best friend before they got in that fight last year"
"You mean the fight that ended with Adam with a black eye and Kenny with a broken wrist?"
"Can I give you some advice?" Austin leaned forward.
"Do it, ask him, I wasn't even out when Jake hit on me, and well, cut to" He showed off his engagement ring on his ring finger.
"Besides his friends from that Dark Order band are with him and they're too stupid to get in between you two"
Ava looked to the booth with purple and black clad people, a blonde girl trying and failing to calm everyone, Adam looking mortified by his friends.
Ava pursed her lips, took a deep breath, downed her shot, murmured "fuck it" and got up to head toward the rowdy group.
Adam Page had one eye on his crew and one eye on Ava all night. He'd heard the rumors that her and Kenny were over and wondered how soon was too soon to shoot his shot with the girl he'd had a crush on since before he and Ken's friendship went to hell.
He'd long since gotten over the guilt of being half in love with his former best friend's girl, knowing Kenny didn't deserve the lovely African American girl. He just didn't get why she'd put up with Kenny's constant cheating and abuse for so long
. "Hey" Ava said shakily. "Hi" Adam said back with a confident smile. Anna elbowed him. "I heard you and Kenny broke up"
"Yeah" Ava fiddled with her necklace.
"He didn't deserve you" Adam said firmly. "That means a lot cowboy" She teased. "Hey, cowboy boots are expensive these days, I'm proud of my purchases"
"I was uh...wondering if you'd like to uh hang out sometime?" Ava stuttered her way though the sentence. "You don't have to if you don't want to but I'd really like if we could be uh friends yeah friends"
Adam inwardly giggled at the shy, bashful woman in front of him. She was just so damn cute.
"Sugar, I would love to hang out with you" Adam drawled flirting with all his might.
Ava swore her brain made the windows shutdown noise at Adam's behavior.
Austin was giving a thumbs up while Violet clapped. Seth looked like an overprotective father at the pair. "We have a show in a couple days" Anna butted in. "It's Adam's singing debut"
Adam whined at her to be quiet.
"We sing New Year's Day, Bring me the Horizon, sometimes BTS"
"Really?" Adam said "We do a heavy metal version of Fake Love"
"Why are you so fucking perfect for me?" Ava blurted before literally letting out a short scream and running back to her friends
"Great job Av" Violet said giggling at her normally badass friend's antics
"Why did I say that?!" "You're in love!" Austin laughed. "Please tell me what's he doing?"
"Anna is laughing at him and he looks shook"
Ava peeked at him, sure enough the Dark Order was laughing while Adam looked stunned.
"You know he follows me on Tumblr right?" Violet leaned forward. "I look at his blog every once and while and he always post poetry on the girl who stole his heart
"POETRY?!?!?" Ava exclaimed "WAIT, how do you know he's talking about me?"
"I'm sorry, do you know any other girls who ahem 'change their hair color on the wind and have skin the color of the silkiest milk chocolate'" Violet quoted with a semi disgusted look on her face.
Ava blushed deeply, looking at her purple streaks. "I haven't had this big of a crush since Darby"
