Thread: You're Like a Song Stuck in My Head [FxF] (Clearsight X Javorcek)

Tessa's entire thought process of knowing precisely how her friends were going to act once they arrived at the club, was wrong. Normally that would be a cause for celebration, they were paying attention to her for once and not dragging her around just to ditch her twenty minutes later. Wrong again, it wasn't a cause for celebration. Tessa hiding her irritation behind the entire 'I know what you'll do, I'm too smart to be fooled' bullshit crumbled before it even began, which only made her pout like a grump. Acting like she was super smart and in control only worked if it wasn't disproved a few minutes in, or when she avoided it all together. That had been her second play, to hide amidst the crowd of people and noise, which turned out to be another, much larger failure. Not only did Tessa fail to hide, both literally and figuratively, she found herself cornered by her own plan. It was the kind of night where nothing was coming up Tessa, as if reality was smacking her and making it clear that her luck had run out and she had to face the difficult task of interacting with her band mates, particularly Alex. The only thing more daunting to the confused drummer than getting close and having any meaningful conversation with Alex, was having some random guy pushed on her. At least she could trust Alex to take it like a champ no matter what happened, the past few weeks proving just how much Alex had to like her to put up with all her shit. A random guy though, not only did she feel ambushed, she felt uncomfortable, so far out of her comfort zone that she actually wanted to laugh like a nervous idiot and run away. Her reaction was a bit different, but it spoke towards her displeasure as much as instantly ditching him without explaining herself would. She had chosen to turn and give Alex a death glare, not hiding it from the guy and keeping her evil look on her friend until she went away, leaving him to turn awkwardly to the guy in front of her and try to figure out what the fuck she was supposed to do with the sudden blind date, one in which her friends hadn't even known who the fuck he was until they met him. When she finally spoke she kept it short, and a bit snippy, but tried to maintain a calm enough tone not to attack the innocent. I really wasn't looking to meet anyone tonight, sorry that my idiot friends wasted your time. To which she got a very unwanted response, the guy clearly thinking a good deal of himself as he tried to act smooth. Nah, it's no problem, I kind of had the feeling from your expression a minute ago, but we might as well make the most of it right? I mean, I'm a catch you know, especially compared to the rest of this crowd, and if you have to go home with someone it might as well be me, don't you think? He asked, looking around as if daring Tessa to find someone more attractive than himself, and giving off a subtle hint of smugness that really made her go from 'not horny' to 'repulsed'. That was impressive when she thought about it, a guy having such an abundance of narcissistic confidence that he made her want to throw up a little in her mouth, it was a first. Then again, he was probably just swinging for the fences, she hadn't given off a welcoming vibe and she had no plans to go anywhere with anyone, even if an orgasm after several weeks of frustration and disappointment sounded fantastic. Tessa decided to play along, looking for a moment to crush his hopes of anything happening and then find Alex and tell her to mind her own damn business next time, and then go back to the room and soak in the tub... Or just go to sleep, or stop somewhere and get a shit ton of alcohol and then go drink and watch porn... She had a lot of conflicting desires, and none of them included the man in front of her. She wasn't even in the mood to appreciate the thought. Back to the task at hand, being a complete bitch to the random jackass. Oh yeah? So what, you thinking we go back to your place, just go at it until morning, and then never see one another again? Her tone was a tad mocking, but not enough to be harsh, and certainly not playful enough to be considered flirty. Then came the most depressing thing yet, because as quickly as his confidence came on, it crumbled. Well, he tried, it just didn't work. Actually... I was thinking we could go back to your place. He said, looking around a bit before turning to Tessa and motioning towards the bathrooms, Or if you would prefer something else... He really lost it there, his voice almost trembling as he made the bold suggestion. Tessa almost lost it. He was either married, lived with his parents, or didn't want to be seen with her... None of those were good fucking options. It took everything she had not to take a swing, or vomit on his shoes, or scream that he was a fucking asshole. What she managed to do may have been scarier though, because all she did was smile, with a modicum of murderous intent in her eyes, and then walk away. She didn't say goodbye or decline him, she just left, moving away as fast as she could and going right towards the bar, ready to drink enough to forget what just happened. --- Drinking, so much drinking, more drinking than little Tessa ever did. What did drinking so much accomplish for the drummer? Her deciding to go looking for Alex, no longer to say goodbye, but to sink her night... Because it was her fault that some bastard had propositioned her for bathroom sex, at a club, less than five minutes in to their first meeting. So she moved clumsily through the club and spent a good deal of time looking for her friend before she found her. Only, she looked like she was having a very nice time, grinding up against some sexy woman with a grin on her face. Hmph, no! Not allowed! Tessa had made her decision, Alex didn't get to go anywhere with anyone! No sex for her! If Tessa's only choices for the night were horny college kid and lonely bitch, she was going to make a new option, lonely bitch with miserable best friend! Yeah... Best! Best friends! Alex had to suffer too, it was her fault! Only, Tessa wasn't being quite as skillful as she would usually be, making her way to Alex and stopping right next to her, waiting for a moment as she got herself together before reaching over, pulling the woman off of Alex, and poking her friend in the chest afterwards, ignoring the strange woman completely. You set me up with a dick! She raised her voice to get over the music but she wasn't terribly loud, instead poking Alex a few more times and narrowing her eyes. She wasn't so drunk that she was slurring her words, or falling over herself despite the bit of clumsiness showing itself, but she was drunk enough lose the pesky inhibitions that should have been governing her actions. Trying to get me to go into the bathroom with him, hmph! She crossed her arms, oblivious to everything to the point of forgetting about the girl that was standing where she was about five seconds beforehand.
