We got about a half a mile away from the club and I could already feel the music pumping under my feet. I sat next to Nick about to die of boredom with his arm around my shoulder.

"Are we there yet?" I wined with my eyes shut.

"You sound worse then Bart! That's what? The tenth time you've asked that?!" Kevin griped.

"Eleventh." Nick said. Giving him a small punch in the arm, I cuddled up in his chest.

"Are we tired?" Nick asked me.

"No just REALLY bored!" I answered lifting my head. "Ugg!! Are we there yet?!" I asked again.

"Twelve." Nick said snickering.

"Oh shut up!" I said giving him a warning look.

"Geez girl take a pill, I was only joking. Women these days."

"Do NOT go there!"

"Well he won't be able to. We're here!" Kevin sang.

"Good!" I said and go out before he even had a chance to stop the car. "This place better be good." I whispered to myself.

The others were already here, I saw Brian's car parked. I walked inside not bothering to wait for the others. I found AJ, Brian, and Howie sitting in a corner booth near the back and quickly made myself comfortable.

"So are you drunk yet, AJ?" I asked as I sat down.

"We just got here!" He said as if he was the 'innocent' one.

"Like I said, are you drunk yet?" I said keeping a straight face.

"Well for your info, missy! No, I am not! What makes you think I would be anyways?" He said, hands on waist. Just as he said that, the waitress came with their drinks, handing AJ the beer.

"I rest my case."

"What case?" Kevin asked as he sat down.

"The case that says AJ can not goto a club without getting drunk within 25 minutes." I said simply with a shrug of my shoulders.

"Case is rested. Let's go dance." Nick said pulling me up.

"Well next time why don't you ask instead if pulling me up like that." I said with a laugh. We danced non-stop to hits as the Candy remix, Will 2 K, and even the Everybody remix which Nick, and I'm sure the other guys, got weird looks from the other dancers. Tiring out, we decided to sit down for a few.

"I'm gonna go get us a couple of waters." Nick said as I sat down. I decided to do a quick make-up check in the bathroom while he was gone.

I squished and squeezed my way through the dancing people as I found my way to the bathroom. Well it looked fine. Just a bit of sweat on top of my forehead. I quickly wiped it away with a paper towl and threw it away on my way out. As I walked out, I felt strange. As if someone was following me. Dismissing the feeling, I made my way through the bathroom hall and stole a sip of water from the fountain. I slowly turned around as I felt someone breathing on my neck.

"Nick, why do you try to-" I gasped as I saw who was in front of me.

"No! Get awa-" I shouted as he put a wash cloth over my mouth. "From me." I finished as I felt dizzy and saw nothing but darkness.

*~*At the booth*~*

*~*~*Nick's point of view*~*~*

"Hey guys, have you seen Marrisa? I left a few minutes ago to get some water and now I can't find her." I said walking up to Kevin and Brian, who just sat down.

"I thought I saw her a few minutes ago, by the bathrooms. She might still be over there." Kevin suggested.

I walked quickly through the crowds of people, as I made my way towards the bathrooms. Sighing as I looked around, I saw no one. The second he was about to walk back to the booth, I felt a slight chill of a breeze from outside. Noticing the door was open, I took a slight peek from inside and saw a medium sized man carrying something. Now that I looked at it better, it was more like someone.

Getting curious, I walked out side slowly and cautiously following the man. Whoever's it was, their head fell back as I realized who it was.

Marrisa.

Speeding up I walked down the dark alley until I was close behind the man. Noticing he didn't know I was behind him, I found the gleaming silver of the gun in the man's pocket. Quickly grabing it as the man turned around I pointed it to his face.

"Put her down. Gently." Nick said with fire in my voice. The man, noticing he had nothing to defend himself with, did as told and backed away slowly. "Now run. If I ever see you again, even 50 feet near her, you'll feel bad cause you died with your own weapon." Of course, the man took me seriously and ran quickly down the alley. Like I'd ever kill someone, I didn't have the heart to. Throwing the gun in a gutter, I picked up Marrisa, studying her.

"Damn..." I said as I walked back to the club. I walked quickly to the booth as I noticed AJ and Howie had decided to join them.

"Guys we need to get home, now." I said stoping for a second and making my way to the car. Howie threw some cash on the table, grabbed his jacket and walked out with the others.

"Nick what happened?" Brian asked as the ran towards me.

"I'll explain later. We just need to get her back to the bus." I said as I got into Kevin's car, holding her in my lap.
