Chapter 4

Amber�s lips curved into a seductive smirk.  �Oh really?�
�Really.� He dipped her and she laughed.
�Are you always this confident?�
�Not always...� he spun her around and pulled her close again.  �Just when I see something that I want.�
She rolled her eyes and glanced up at him before wriggling out of his grasp.  �I�m going back to get something to drink.� she sighed and wandered over to the bar.
He watched her walk away, �What?  Did I do something wrong?� he shrugged and made his way back to the table.
*********
�Look like out time is going to get cut short.�
�Hmmmm?� Blaze looked at Jimmie.
�Here comes Junior, without Amber.� his brow furrowed when Junior slid in across from the two.  �What�s up?�
�Nothing.� he waved over a waitress and ordered a beer.  Turning to Blaze, he sighed.  �What is up with her?�
�What do you mean?� Blaze questioned him.
�She seems so....so...uncomfortable around me.  One minute we are having fun, the next minute she just wanders off.�
�It�s not my place to tell, Junior.� She sipped on her drink.
�What?  Did something bad happen to her or something?�
�That�s putting it mildly.�
The two guys exchanged glances before drinking the rest of their drinks.
*********
�So?  Your Junior�s new lady?�
Amber turned around in her barstool.  �Casey, right?�
�That is me.� he sat down next to her and ordered a beer.
�I am no ones new lady.� She smiled.  �Dale and I just happened to run into each other last night.�
�Yeah, you we�re standing out soaking wet in the rain.� He grinned.
Amber laughed and shook her head.  �What, do you guys tell each other everything?  Are you like females?� she cocked an eyebrow.
�No, we are NOT females.  We don�t have to go to the bathroom together, yet.�
She giggled at his comment and sipped on her drink.  A familiar song started to pulsate out of the speakers and she smiled.  �I must dance.� she stood up.
�Mind if I join you?� Casey questioned her.
She stuck out her hand and Casey was quick to jump up and grab it, letting her lead him out onto the dance floor.
*********
Blaze nodded her head along to the song, occasionally stopping to sing a line or two.
�You like this song?� Jimmie asked her, smiling slighting.
�Of course, �I Wanna Be Bad� is a very good song.� She giggled and stared down into her peach colored drink.  �It�s Amber�s favorite song.  She always plays it when we are getting ready to go out and hit the clubs.� Blaze glanced around the dance floor.  �See!  There she is grooving to it.� She pointed over to Amber.  �With another guy....� The last part of the sentance rolled off her tounge and she regretted saying it once it was out of her mouth.
�Casey.....� Junior sighed as he watched his friend grind up against the girl that he wanted.
********
�You sure know how to dance.� Casey laughed as the two of them left the dance floor and headed back over to the bar.
�I�ve taken Salsa and hip hop dance lessons.� She beamed and slid onto a stool.
�Wow.  You sure know how to dance than.� He laughed and sat next to her.  He quickly ordered their drinks and turned around and leaned against the bar, looking over the dance floor.
�See something you like?� Amber giggled and placed his beer in his hand.
�Nope, well besides the female sitting next to me.�
A slow song started to play and Amber turned on her stool to look over the dance floor.  She sighed contently and sipped on her drink.
�Would you like to dance?�
Amber whipped her head in the direction of the voice and smiled.  �Sure Dale.� She stood up and took the hand that he had offered to her and walked onto the dance floor.
Casey stood, watching her in awe.  He wanted her.  Dale wanted her.  What was he to do?
**********
�You just don�t give up, do you?� Amber looked up at Dale, amazement in her eyes as the two started to slow dance.
�You want me to give up?� He shot back.
�I never said that, I just figured that you would quit already.  Most guys don�t like the chase.�
�The chase is the best part, mi lady.� He smirked.  �So, what do you say that you come back to my bus with me?�
She busted out laughing.  �Fast mover are we?�
�Blaze is going back with Jimmie, I just figured that you would want to come back with her.� He looked down at her, his blue eyes fluttering innocently.
�Blaze is going back with Jimmie, already?� Amber shook her head and laughed.  �Okay.  I will go back with you.�
�Shall we get going than, it is getting late.� Dale watched as Amber checked her watch.
�Two A.M., already!  Goodness.  Yes, lets go back to the others and go.� The two of them walked together to go and round up Blaze and Jimmie and soon the couples we�re on their way back to the bus�.
Casey watched as they all left.  Shaking his head and sighing he went to go and find Tony, hoping to catch a ride home with him.
