"Please, stop running," the bartender said sighing behind as I took off in the street, after the show in the bathroom he dragged me out from the dirty stall and helped me get outside but it was so nice that I wanted to walk so, that's what I did.
"I don't know your name," he almost cried out in frustration and that had me burst into giggles, I don't know why but he was very funny.
"It's Erika," I yelled running on the dark empty street spreading my arms like an airplane
"Erika let us stop running now. so, that I can get you home," his words fell to deaf ears. I kept running and running, and running it was so beautiful and nice night.
suddenly the world seemed upside down, I was hoisted upon his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. "Let go of me, you asswipe. I'm married" I yelled hitting his back as strong as I could but alas it didn't look like it hurt at all.
He didn't say anything just kept walking towards somewhere, I didn't do anything further and just hand there like a lifeless stuffed doll. it became darker as we moved further looking around I figured we were in the parking area and he was walking towards the bike section, which was not such a good idea.
He pulled me from his shoulder and dumped me on the seat of his bike. I pouted looking at him because he was not gentle while throwing me on the seat of the bike. he smiled at me "Ok, now, tell me where you live so I can drop you off and be back to my normal life," he teased which make me giggles like a teenager.
"I live in Hogwarts, Hogwarts is my home," I said the line I have always wanted to, "You muggles cannot see it, it a hidden world," I said whispering the last worlds shushing him in the end, he held his mouth holding in his laugher but failing miserably.
"Ok, Ms.Hogwarts what do we do now?" he asked dramatically rubbing his chin, I burst into giggles again
"I don't know, I missed my train," I shrug sadly tears accumulating in my eyes, at the thought of missing my chance to go to my dream school and learn magic.
"I have no other solution to our little problem, " he said climbing on the bike and pulled me to sit properly holding his waist tightly, but my arms slipped repeatedly and he sighed. he took off his jacket and put it behind my back and tied it across his chest which had me clinging to my like a second skin.
"Stop taking advantage of me Mr. muggle, I'm married," I remind him like a snoozer on an alarm annoyingly.
his laughter vibrated into his entire body "I don't take advantage of drunk married women, Ms.Hogwarts," he chuckled
He kicked his engine on and we took off into the night, I don't know if I was too drunk but it felt like I was flying and the world seemed so beautiful. the wind blew in my hair and kissed my flushed cheeks, shivers went down my spine and I have never felt so alive. I hugged him tighter laying my head on my shoulder and snuggled in, maybe this was not such a bad idea. with a smile on my face, I closed my eyes not worrying about what might happen next just living the moment.
I felt a buzz in my head and the pain grew with time, groaning in pain I open my eyes only to shut them due to harsh light. I moaned in pain again but opened my eyes again and held my head as if it may fall off my shoulder.
"Good morning, Ms.Hogwarts," a voice so loud it almost split my brain in half.
"Shush," I said with a finger on my lips "Oh, you want me to be quiet?" he asked loudly making me glare at him.
"Please, shut up," I groaned again but got off the bed which wasn't mine in a room that was not mine either. I look at him and he is the same guy from last night "The bartender, right?" I asked pointing at him and he nodded
"Yup, that me. but that not all I'm to you," he said seriously pausing me in my moment to look at him with confusion "We... I don't know how to say this..." he laughed nervously
