by some loser overweight bouncer. What was so special about this place,
she thought to herself? A big sign that read INFINITY spanned the front of the
building and was lit up in white strobe lights that made her squint while
looking at it.
    “WOOP WOOP WOOP!” A loud voice
shouted from outside the club.
    “SOLDIER!” Kelly shouted back. “WASSUP?”
    “HOW ARE YOU GIRL?” he said,
running out to give her a hug and a high five.
    “I’m good!” Kelly said, smiling
back. “Brought my crew tonight!”
    “I see that!” Soldier replied. “Come
right in!”
    Soldier ushered Kelly, Rachel,
Trista and all the guys inside the club and to the back room with a dance floor
and private tables. Rachel couldn’t believe that after all the talk of the fake
ID she didn’t even need it after all. She felt relieved because she knew how
awkward it would have been if she was the only one who didn’t get into the
club.
    “You guys buying a table?” he
asked Kelly.
    “Yeah!” Kelly said, turning to
her friends for approval.
    “You guys in for a table?” Kelly
asked.
    Everyone shook their heads.
Rachel didn’t know exactly what was going on but followed suit anyway shaking
her head yes.
    They all sat down on the sleek
black alligator leather sofas surrounding the table and put their bags down.
    “What can we get you guys?” a
waitress asked wearing a skimpy leotard, fishnets and tall platform shoes.
    “Tequila and Vodka?” Kelly asked,
looking around at everyone.
    “YEAH BABY!” one of the guys
shouted.
    “Someone’s looking for a crazy
night!” another chimed in.
    “So T and V?” the waitress said,
writing the order down on her notepad.
    Rachel sat there, looking around
at the throngs of drunk people dancing on the dance floor. She’d never been to
a nightclub before and had never ordered a bottle of tequila or vodka before
either. She’d never been more out of her element than she was at this moment.
    Feeling unsure of the situation,
Rachel got up from the leather couch and walked away towards the bar to get a
glass of water. She still had a bit of a fuzzy feeling inside her from the
alcohol and she wanted to rid herself of it. She sat down on a high bar stool
with her heeled feet dangling down its sides.
    “What can I get you pretty lady?”
the bartender asked in a smooth voice.
    “Oh, me?” Rachel asked, looking
surprised. Nobody had ever called her that before.
    “Who else would I be speaking to?”
the bartender winked. “So, what will it be?”
    “Just a water for me,” Rachel
answered.
    “Water?” the bartender looked in
horror.
    “Yup!” Rachel said, trying not to
feel embarrassed. It was clear that nobody else at Infinity would ever dare
order a glass of water.
    The bartender walked away with an
annoyed look on his face and came back and slammed a small glass of water down
on the bar, and in doing so, some of it splashed out of the glass and hit her
on the face.
    Trying to play it cool, she
picked up the glass of water and started sipping it. She didn’t let on that she
was splashed in the face.
    “Thanks,” she said to the
bartender, who had already turned around to help the next pretty girl.
    She felt a tap on her shoulder
and then a hand touching hers.
    “Well, hello,” a guy said.
    She turned to see a tall,
handsome guy with short brown hair standing next to her smiling at her. He was
wearing a blue and white striped button down shirt open at the top by a few
buttons and he wore a silver necklace with a cross on it. She couldn’t help but
think how handsome thing guy was as she looked up at him into his light blue
eyes.
    “Hi,” Rachel replied back loudly,
trying to speak over the loud music that was blaring in the background.
    “What’s your name? I haven’t seen
you around here before,” he asked.
    “I’m Rachel,” she said, gazing
into his eyes. “I’m just visiting.”
    “I know you’re not from around
here. I would have definitely seen you before,” the guy said.
