A work on non-fiction, brought to you by your favorite resident little. :)
I'm not allowed to drink.
But she is.
And she got taken out to a special place last night. A hotel with several bars and restaurants scattered around inside. They found one that looked nice. She had dinner, it was amazing. Great conversation. And one of her favorites... IPA's from local breweries. When the waitress came to serve them their last round of beers, she looked around carefully and then in a hushed voice, suggested that they take them 'to go' and walk around the hotel and try to find the secret speakeasy.
Intrigued, they paid the tab and left on their adventure. They walked up and down the hallways, up and down flights of stairs. Passed other couples hand in hand with secrets hidden behind their smiles.
They found no secret speakeasy. But what they did find was another bar. They challenged one another to a friendly game of pinball. (That is, after all, how we met.) And after the game was over and their second last beers were had, they made their way out, the door. There was a restroom on the right and she walked up the steps to the door to use it. Before she could open the door, he grabbed around her waist and turned her to face him, her back coming to rest on the wall behind them...
Except it wasn't a wall at all. The 'wall' began it's swing inward and still entangled they fell into what lie beyond it... They took a moment and righted themselves and realized they'd just fallen through a hidden door and were now standing in a dimly lit hallway.
He moved again, this time planting her back against a wall that didn't move and he kissed her, deeply. As bed wanted to so badly for so long. She kissed him back and suddenly...
I woke up and after realizing we were so close to the secret, hidden speakeasy, I grabbed his hand and smiled and ran down the hallway. I got to the door at the end, paused. I looked up at him, his hand still wrapped around mine, I smiled, anticipation and excitement growing inside me like kindling become fire. I took a deep breath and pushed on the hidden door and it began to swing in and open...
