Chapter 6

Jordan curled her hair and then pulled some of it back so it wouldn't get in the way too much. She put on a pair of black stretch pant and a tank top and found a pair of black boots. After slipping those on, she found a black jacket to take with her. It was almost 8:30 then, so she finished putting on some jewelry and went downstairs. Linda was standing in the kitchen fixing something to eat. "So, how do I look?," Jordan asked.

Linda turned around and her eyes widened and then she smiled. "Jordan..you look great!"

"Really? You think so?"

"Yes! If your dad saw you, he wouldn't let you out of his sight!"

Jordan laughed, "He probably would! So..you really think I look alright?"

"Yes, you look good!," Linda said right as the doorbell rung.

"I guess thats him..I'll be back before 2!"

"Okay..you better!"

Jordan went to the front door and opened the door. There stood Nick dressed in khaki's and a dark blue shirt. "Hey Nick..," She said.

"Hey..You look great!"

Jordan smiled and tried hard not to blush, "Thanks..so do you.."

"Soo..ya ready?"

"Yep.."

"Let's go then."

Jordan followed Nick to his dark green Durango and got in. Nick got in the driver's seat and pulled out of his driveway. "So..are we meeting the other guys there?," Jordan asked.

"Yeah..do you have a certain time you have to be home?"

"Well Linda told me to be home by 2, which is two hours later than my real curfew.."

"Cool..I'm supposed to be home by 2 also.."

"Think your mom and my step-mom talked?"

He smiled, "Probably..knowing my mom.."

Jordan laughed, "Well..hey, its 2 a.m...I'm not gonna argue!"

"Me neither!"

Soon, they pulled up to the club. It was already packed from what Jordan could tell, and it was only like 9 o'clock. Nick parked and they got out. She grabbed his shirt sleeve, "You think I'll be able to get in?"

"Yeah..Of course you will..Plus, you look just about 18 or 21..whatever the age limit is.."

"Whatever.."

They walked up to the front of the club and right up to the huge bouncer waiting at the door. Nick talked to him for a minute and then pulled Jordan into the club with him. "See how easy it is?," He asked.

"I guess so.."

"Come on then..I see the guys.."

Jordan nodded and followed Nick through the crowded club. She recognized AJ and Brian, and guessed the other two to be Kevin and Howie. "Hey guys..," Nick said.

"Hey..," They all chorused.

Nick introduced Jordan to Kevin and Howie, and AJ's girlfriend, Amanda. Soon, they were all talking and just sitting around. Finally, AJ stood up and took Amanda's hand. "I gotta dance..," He said as he led Amanda to the dance floor.

Jordan laughed at AJ. "They seem happy..how long have they been going out?," She asked.

"Probably about five months..," Brian said.

"Ohhh.."

"Yeah..Okay..I'm gonna go get a drink, you all want anything?," Brian asked.

"I don't..," Jordan said. Nick shook his head 'no' and Brian left.

Soon Kevin and Howie found some women and went to dance with them. "Wanna dance?," Nick asked.

"Well if you wanna see me make a fool of myself.."

"You can't be that bad..no one is as bad as I am!"

"Nick, I doubt you're a bad dancer..you pretty much dance for a living.."

"I'm the clumsiest person on earth!"

"No you aren't.."

"So let's dance!"

Jordan sighed, "Oh alright.."

Nick grinned and grabbed her hand. He led her out on the dance floor and they started to dance. 'He was right..he is sorta clumsy but the boy can dance!,' Jordan thought.

Nick smiled to himself. 'Yeah she can't dance, sure! This girl definately knows how to move..,' He thought.

They pretty much danced the night away. Soon, it was 1:30 in the morning. Jordan leaned against Nick and yawned. "You tired?," He asked.

"Yeah.."

"Okay..we better get home anyways.."

"Okay.."

They said bye to the other guys and Amanda and left the club. Nick drove to Jordan's hosue and walked her to her front door. "I had a really nice time Nick.."

"So did I.."

"Thanks for inviting me.."

"No problem..shows ya what Tampa's club scene is like.."

Jordan smiled and said, "Well..its not that much different from where I lived.."

"I guess..whatever.."

"Yeah..soo..I guess I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Yeah...See you tomorrow..," He leaned down and kissed her quickly, "Night Jordan."

He walked down the front walkway and disappeared into the darkness. Jordan was stunned...did he just kiss her, or did she imagine it?? She opened the front door and awalked inside. Linda walked into the front foyer and saw the smile on Jordan's face. "So, I'm guessing it went well?," She asked.

"Oh you don't even know! He kissed me!"

"Really?"

"Yeah! You think I'd lie about something like this?!"

"Well..isn't that good?"

"I guess..I've never had a guy like me, like me..ya know?"

"Jordan, I'm sure plenty of guys have liked you..they just didn't wanna make it known.."

"I guess..dude, what does this mean?!"

Linda shrugged, "I don't know Jordan..why don't you ask him tomorrow?"

"Maybe I will..I dunno..I'm gonna go to bed..see you in the morning Linda.."

"Night Jordan.."

Jordan went up to her room and changed into a tank top and her pajama pants. She crawled into her bed and closed her eyes and fell asleep.
