Baby I'm A Sinner novel Chapter 34

It took every fiber in my being not to stick my tongue out to the bouncer as I walked past him.

"How much did you pay him?" I asked Noah as we walked down the long corridor. The music was getting louder and louder as we approached the double doors, and I could already feel it thumping in my chest.

"A hundred."

"Shit, I don't have that many."

He rolled his eyes and opened the door, not letting me go in first.

Ladies first then

He made sure I was following him before he started walking towards the right staircase. There was a large booth right by the stairs, with a view over the giant club. It was dimly lit with multicolored lights and definitely bigger than the last club we went to.

"YOOOOO!" Jake yelled as soon as he saw me approaching them.

Everyone at the booth looked at me and I blushed, thankful for the bad light.

I sat down next to Jake and Noah next to me. Jade, Carly, Zack and Harry were there too, the rest of them probably dancing or in the bathrooms doing God knows what.

"Where's Emma?" I asked.

"Dancing with Liam." Jake answered, wiggling his eyebrows.

"And where's Max? I thought you two-"

"Nah he's got a boyfriend."

"Since when?"

"Last week. I know, I was just as surprised."

"What do you want to drink?" Noah asked me, leaning over to my ear so I could hear him over the loud music.

"Um...do they have that blue drink here?"

"Yeah."

"Then I'll have that please. How much is it?"

"I'm gonna pay, don't worry."

"You can't pay every time-"

"I'm paying for everyone else so." He said and got up from the couch to go to the bar.

I turned my head to Harry, who was now doing shots with Carly.

"Lucas?" I mouthed at him, confused.

"Eleanor." he mouthed back sadly, nodding towards the dancefloor.

I made a disappointed sad face and he nodded, downing another shot.

Lucas and Eleanor eventually come back to our booth with flushed cheeks and sweaty hair. Zack got up and let her sit down, before he grabbed a drink and started dancing with Lucas, completely drunk.

I stood up when I saw Noah approaching with two drinks in hand.

"Thanks." I yelled over the music and grabbed the glass from him.

"Cheers!"

We toasted and I took a sip as he chugged down half of the drink already.

"Take it easy!" I laughed and he looked confused for a second, and then leaned back over to me so I could repeat it in his ear.

"It's my fifth drink, 'm fine!" he laughed, shaking his head and drank the rest of his drink to prove a point. "Aren't you hot?"

"What?"

He placed his hand on the small of my back, pulling me towards him to repeat his question. Everything was kind of weird because we couldn't quite hear each other over the music and him yelling into my ear wasn't making things easier.

I nodded to answer his question, before I unzipped my jacket and turned around to throw it on the couch. Noah smirked and slapped my revealed stomach with his knuckles.

"Stop." I giggled and slapped his hand away.

"Let's dance!" he suggested and I shrugged, following him towards the stairs, still holding onto my half emptied glass.

He guided me with a hand that he's placed on my back, stopping right in the middle of the dancefloor once we got downstairs, and pushing up to fit against my back.

I turned around to face him after two songs, sipping from my drink as I kept dancing. He smirked and leaned down to also suck on the straw and finished my drink in five seconds.

I had no place left to sit down so I chose to stand up like Noah, who was now drunkenly dancing with Lucas and Eleanor, passing the last bottle of Vodka between them.

"I think I'm gonna be sick." Jake said and laid himself out over Emma's and Liam's laps, closing his eyes.

"I think it's time to go home." Zack yelled over the music and I agreed.

Twenty minutes later everyone was organized and heading for the exit. Jake and Emma were completely mortal, which meant that Zack, Noah, Harry, and Lucas had to help carry them outside.

I called four different taxis, and Jake ended up vomiting on the sidewalk right in front of one. Lucas, Eleanor, Liam, Harry and Emma got in the first one, and when it was Jade's turn to get in one with Carly, Zack, and Jake.

"Aren't you coming back to Jake's?" Jade asked me, one foot already in the car.

"Um...I'm going back with Noah." I told her and she raised her eyebrows.

"Okay, be careful." Was all she said before she got into the taxi.

Noah opened the door to the third taxi, getting in first and leaning against the window once I closed the door and told the driver his address.

"Already know my address hm?" he laughed as I buckled up.

"Yeah." I rolled my eyes.

He pouted and shifted closer so our thighs were touching and he was now in my personal bubble.

"Why are you mad now?"

"I'm not mad. You're drunk."

He laughed. "I am."

Then he leaned over and started kissing up my neck, his hand back under my skirt.

"Noah. The driver." I whispered into his ear and he hummed, before he started sucking on my skin, probably planning on giving me a hickey.

"So?"

"You're going to leave a mark."

Before he could answer, we were already in front of his house, so he had to pull back and pay the driver.
