murmured.
    “Say cheese,” Callie yelled, before taking about a dozen pictures of Violet and me.
    “Text me those,” I murmured to Callie. She tapped on her cell.
    “Sent,” she responded then walked back over to David, sitting down.
    “So tell me, Violet, what do you do for fun?” I asked as I raised my wine glass to my lips.
    “Not much,” she responded with a quiver of sadness in her voice. Why did my question make her so sad? Was she thinking about her breakup with her fiancé? I would never have asked the question if I knew she was going to react this way. So I tried to redeem myself.
    “You should let me take you out, show you all the finest clubs,” I offered.
    “No!” David butted in. He was really starting to get on my last nerve.
    Violet leaned closer to me, completely ignoring David.
    “I would love that, I mean, I don’t want to be a bother to you or anything. I had a boyfriend for four years, so I’m kind of out of the loop,” she stuttered.
    “No bother,” I responded as I grinned at David, who in turn grunted. 
    Callie let out a loud yawn.
    “I’m tired, let’s go home,” Callie said as she laid her head on David’s shoulder. Violet leaned across the table.
    “Come on, Callie, I want to stay. The waiter said they have a band that plays tonight.”
    “Fine then, stay,” Callie retorted.
    “I can’t stay by myself,” Violet said, pouting.
    “I’ll stay with you,” I offered. This was my chance to have Violet alone, to get to know her better. I was very intrigued to know what made this beautiful woman tick.
    “No!” David scolded. He was really starting to irritate me. Talk about a cock blocker. Before I could utter a word, Callie spoke.
    “Its fine, David,” Callie reassured him.
    “But Callie, its Chain,” David said worriedly.
    “David, they’re adults, they will be fine,” Callie retorted.  David cowered down and it was the one and only time I was happy about Callie’s domineering ways. She stood up.
    “Come on, I’m really tired.”
    Violet and I escorted Callie and David to the door, and as Callie and Violet talked, David took me to the side.
    “Look, Chain, Callie is the most important person in the world to me. Please don’t do something I will regret,” David said to me.
    “Didn’t you hear your girlfriend, we are adults, David, if Violet and I decide to do anything, it will be between us.”
    “Please, Chain, I’m begging you again, don’t touch her,” David murmured. I could tell by his expression he was really worried about what I would do with Violet. I knew Callie was important to him, that someday he would marry her and they would live their happily ever after and I definitely didn’t want to have any part in ruining that. David’s happiness was very important to me; he was more like a brother than a friend. I felt the need to reassure him.
    “I promise I will be a complete gentleman. My hands will stay firmly in these pockets,” I said as I tucked my hands into my pockets.
    “Why doesn’t that make me feel better?” he muttered worriedly. I patted him on the shoulder.
    “Don’t worry, nothing will happen.” He extended his hand and I shook it.
    “I’m trusting you,” he responded. I nodded my head. He took Callie’s hand and they left.
    Violet was swaying from side to side as we walked back towards the table, an obvious sign she was intoxicated. As the heel of her shoe caught the carpet in the wrong way, she stumbled backwards and I caught her from behind. She twirled around, looking into my eyes.
    “You are so beautiful,” she whispered and then slammed her mouth against mine. Her lips dominated mine so fast and furiously that I had to gasp for air and she took full advantage, sliding her moist tongue inside. The look on David’s face began to haunt me as his words floated through my head: ‘I’m trusting you.’ I gently pushed her back.
    “Violet, this can’t happen.” There was no way I was risking my friendship with
