Rouge (Somewhere In A Winding Street Ch2)

Laughter round the room,

Small talks filling in the spaces.

"want to go someplace quiet?"

The whisper sends shivers down my spine.

My cheeks heat up

Flushed red like the cherry 

Sitting pretty in my glass.

he takes his place next to me. 

Our glasses leans, clashing into each other''s 

Making a clinking sound. 

He is handsome with hair cut too short,

Sleeves rolled up to the elbows,

That easy going manner and playful smile.

"Ye-"

Something tugs at my heart

Nagging at some memory-

And i sip my drink 

That taste like bitter lemon.

"Well?"

He nudges me with his shoulder.

I drop the cherry, 

Stand up with a slight buzz 

Say my goodbyes and leave.
