He nodded, looking at her thoughtfully. "Yeah, i can see you doing that." He replied. Then blinked. "Er, not in a creepy way or anything. I just meant…hopefully you know what i meant." He chuckled softly, shaking his head. "But yeah. I always liked listening to music, though I couldn't play anything."
(Ok)
Allie laughed. “I get it,” she replied. “Music was an important part of my life.” She kept turned off of the road and walked past a couple blocks of houses before stopping in front of the aforementioned high school. “This is it, I think.”
Logan nodded, looking at the high school. "Shall we head inside?" He asked, glancing over at her with a small smile.
“We shall,” she said, and walked into the door, unsure what to expect. She glanced at Logan to make sure he was following.
He followed her with a small smile. He thought it would be interesting to see the inside, and see what it looked like.
They were met with blasting music and several people dancing or standing around and talking. It was dark inside, like most buildings, and Allie wondered how whoever was running this had obtained working speakers. A few people glanced up as they entered, though most didn’t seem to care, or even notice.
As she looked around, Allie noticed that this was probably the front commons area of the school, and wondered how far back the club went. There was a makeshift bar in front of a hallway, with a man standing behind it, polishing a chipped (but clean) glass. He regarded the two of them with suspicion, but Allie pretended not to notice.
“Well this is certainly…interesting,” she remarked, taking in the scene. She didn’t recognize a single person here, but that didn’t shock her. “What do you think?”
Logan grinned, and shrugged. "Interesting is right. And i think this looks… interesting, I have to agree. I don't know any other way to describe it." He laughed softly.
Allie smiled. “It isn’t awful,” she added. “Do you want to dance?” The song playing had been one she liked before the invasion started.
He smiled, the white hairs at his temple seeming almost bright in the dim light. "Sure." He replied, heading for the dance floor.
Allie walked confidently in front of him, turning around to face him once they got onto the dance floor. She caught her breath as she turned and looked at him, then noticed the white hairs. She couldn’t help but ask this time, her curiosity getting the best of her. “Why do you have white hairs?” She wouldn’t make him answer, but she was curious, and truth be told, a bit suspicious.
He touched his hair lightly. "What? Oh…I don't know. Stress, maybe?" He shrugged slightly.
"Oh, okay," she replied, not sure whether she bought it. She wanted to believe that he was telling the truth. She shot him a small smile before trying to dance. She was a bit rusty, but got back into the flow quickly. She was actually quite good, though not amazing, and danced like she didn't care who was watching (which she didn't).
He chuckled softly, and joined her in dancing. He was an okay dancer. Not great, but not too terrible either. He smiled lightly at her. "Hey, we van go see if they'll let us get drinks later." He suggested.
She smiled. "Why not?" She had had a little bit of beer at a party once, and her mom had let her drink wine occasionally for special occasions, but that was all. "Do you happen to know anyone?" she added curiously.
He chuckled, then shook his head. "I dont think so." He replied. "Do you know anyone?" He asked, looking over at her with a small smile.
“Nope,” she replied, smiling back. Even in the dim light, he looked handsome. She tried to dampen the fluttering sensation in her stomach. At this point she knew what was happening. Remember Alex? That didn’t end well, and neither would this, she thought. “That’s kind of a good thing though. It’d be less embarrassing if I look dumb in front of strangers.”
He laughed, nodding. "Mm. Thats true. If i get black out drunk for whatever reason, and start spouting dumb shit, just drag me back to the house." He said with a laugh.
(Oml i have like five characters named Alex and for a minute there i had a small heart attack lol)
(ahdlaksjsjs i just chose a name lol)
Allie rolled her eyes. “Please don’t do that,” she said with a laugh. “Also I don’t know about you but those drinks can’t be free and I don’t exactly have much money.”
(loll Alex is my muse, essentially. I use him as my go-to character XD)
He laughed. "I'll try not to. And i have money, and i doubt I'll find anywhere else to spend it." He replied with a smile. He thought she looked rather pretty in this lighting.
(that’s actually really funny that i happened to pick that name hahah)
“Okay, but I’m not responsible if you act like an absolute idiot,” she responded, still smiling. She shook her head. She turned to see a guy staring at her and subconsciously shifted closer to Logan, looking away uncomfortably as the guy also directed his glance.
(lol yup. Thats why it startled me XD)
Logan chuckled. "Alright." He replied simply. He didn't notice the man staring at them, still watching Allie with a smile.
Allie had hoped that the guy would find someone else to look at creepily, but he didn’t, so she turned to Logan once again. “That guy in the corner won’t stop staring at me,” she said, glancing back. “It’s making me nervous. Do you know what we should do?”
Logan looked around, and saw the man. His eyes narrowed, and he took a few steps closer to Allie. "Here. Maybe if we make him think you're taken, he'll stop." He slid an arm around her waist, cupping her cheek in his other hand and looking down at her.
Allie’s heart skipped a beat, and she hoped he couldn’t feel how her pulse was racing from the nervousness about the stranger and the sudden nearness of Logan. She looked up at him, her face feeling hot, before glancing quickly back at the guy, who scowled and went to get a drink, no longer watching her. She then wondered if Logan was going to have to act like her boyfriend the whole time. She wasn’t sure whether she wanted him to or not. I shouldn’t want him to, she thought, annoyed at herself.
Logan glanced at the corner. "Good, he's gone." He said, but found that he didn't want to remove his arms from around her. The hand on her cheek gentlyy shifted to her shoulder.
