Chapter 4
The music was pumping and the air was full of lust as bodies were intertwined with each other on the dance floor. Justin was searching the crowd for any signs of Michelle for an hour and still hadn't seen her. An hour before they were supposed to leave, she called and told them she would meet them at the club so the guys agreed. He was quite amused with himself how he was so caught up in finding her, for god sake, she wasn't his girl or anything and he didn't understand what was drawing him to her. To Justin, she was full of mysteries. She would open up to them and then shut off once she said something she probably didn't want to let out. Grabbing his cup from the table to take a sip of his water, his eye caught a voluptuous woman walk into the club.

Tapping his right hand against Lance's arm to get his attention, Lance turned to yell at Justin for spilling his drink on him when he spotted the same woman. Soon enough all was drooling over her and noticed as she walked towards them. Her brown/blackish hair was combed down with slight curls in the ends. The woman's hips swayed effortlessly in her baby phat denim cat jump suit with beige stilettos, the matching bag and the hat slanted to the side, showing only half of her face in the dimly lit club. A smirk was panted across her face as she took the one seat that was saved by her. The faces that were made once she sat down were priceless when they realized the woman they had been lusting for had been Michelle. Seeing as though no one was out of their state of shock, she smiled once more at them and made her way towards the dance to get her groove on while they digested this new look of hers.

Leaning against railing for the upstairs V.I.P, Justin watched as Michelle danced with a couple of guys once or more and he couldn't help but feel jealousy rise within himself. Some men would grope and pull on her body tightly while their bodies were entwined together and for some odd reason he didn't like that idea of other men getting her full attention. Justin knew he shouldn't have been thinking such thoughts about the woman he was supposed to work with for the next 6-7 months, but there was always something pulling him towards her and it wasn't just her body. Her whole appearance was just eye catching and intriguing. Taking it upon himself, he decided to ask Michelle to dance. Moving through the bodies of people, he made eye contact with her and she knew exactly what he was asking without words being said.

Moving away from the recent guy she started to dance with, she gave Justin a bright smile. "So, I see you'll have came out of your shock," she smirked. Wiping the side of his mouth with his thumb, he smirked back.

"Well, who wouldn't have been in shock. I'm so used to seeing you in work clothing," he stated.

"Ok, I understand that. Now, didn't you want to dance or what?," she challenged, placing her right hand outward, Justin grabbed it immediately. Their bodies began to be enchanted by the music blaring, including the drinks both Justin and Diamond had drank earlier.

Diamond was quite tipsy and she knew it, but something just kept pushing her towards Justin. In her mind she was yelling, but her body was aching for more. Turning herself around, she began to grind her back into Justin in a very sexual manner. Justin's hands roamed constantly down her hips to her thighs and she was enjoying the moment. Never in her life did she ever think that she would cross the line with her employer since Jamie. Soon enough the DJ decided to change the pace of the song to BoyzIIMen's "I'll Make Love To You".

Diamond's body immediately stiffen and her face turned pale. The song had been their love making song when she and Jamie had been madly in love. She vowed to herself to never play it ever again because he brought back painful memories of their relationship that she didn't want to re-live a again. Justin took quick notice of Michelle's change and tried to reach out to her once he saw tear spill down her cheeks. Diamond's eyes made full contact with Justin at the touch of his hands and couldn't take it. Pushing however was next to her, she ran as fast as she could to get away from the hurtful emotions she was feeling. Her running ended her up two blocks away from the club.

Justin had stood still for the first few minutes when Diamond ran out of the club trying to put his thoughts together about her sudden actions. Then it hit him that he should be following her instead of just standing there like a dumb ass. Picking up his pace, he made his way to the end of the street and didn't see anyone. Following his gut instinct, he ran in the direction he thought she would run. Going down the second street, he started to lose hope when he couldn't find her. Turning back around, he decided to call the guys to pick him up and search for her, but a soft cry stopped his dialing. In a shadowed corner, Diamond was huddled in a ball crying her eyes out.

"Michelle, is that you?," cautiously asked Justin. The soft cries subsided for that quick second and her small voice spoke.

"Yes, it�s me. Leave me alone, I don't want you to see me like this," pleaded Diamond. Disregarding her wishes, Justin bent down to face Diamond.

"No, I won't. Mish, I need to get you back home. If you get a goodnight sleep, you'll maybe feel better. Do you agree?," proposed Justin.

Looking up at Justin, Diamond saw his need to protect and help her and felt that she could trust him. Placing her hand out, Justin grabbed it and pulled her up. Wiping the tears that came from her eyes, she stopped her feet to look at him again.

"Why are you helping me?," she questioned.

"Cause I'm your friend and I care about you," stated Justin. Placing her head on Justin shoulder, he wrapped his arms around her waist to take her home and hopefully get to the bottom of the mysteries she held.
