The Meeting

Kelvin stood at the bar, nursing a drink as he surveyed the crowd. It was a Friday night, and the club was packed with people looking to blow off steam after a long week. He had come here looking for distraction, but so far, nothing had caught his interest.

That is until he saw her. She was standing across the room, talking to a group of friends. Her long, dark hair was swept up in a messy bun, and she was wearing a tight, black dress that hugged every curve. Kelvin couldn't take his eyes off her.

As if sensing his gaze, she turned and looked directly at him. Their eyes met, and Kelvin felt a jolt of electricity run through him. He felt an immediate attraction to this woman he had never met before.

He decided to make his move. Kelvin walked over to her, and as he approached, she smiled. "Hi," she said, her voice soft and musical. "I'm Leticia."

"Kelvin," he replied, extending his hand. She took it, and he felt a spark of connection.

They talked for hours, lost in conversation. Kelvin learned that Leticia was a nurse who loved to travel and try new foods. She was funny, intelligent, and easy to talk to. Kelvin couldn't believe how lucky he was to have met her.

As the night wore on, the club grew more crowded and rowdy. Kelvin and Leticia found a quiet corner where they could continue to talk. It was then that they heard the first gunshot.

People started screaming and running for the exits, but Kelvin instinctively grabbed Leticia's hand and pulled her in the opposite direction. They found themselves in a dimly lit hallway, and Kelvin could hear the sound of footsteps behind them.

He pushed Leticia behind him, ready to defend her if necessary. But when the figure emerged from the shadows, Kelvin was surprised to see that it was a young woman, holding a gun.

"Please, you have to help me," the woman said, tears streaming down her face. "They're after me."

Kelvin and Leticia exchanged a look, and then Kelvin nodded. They would help her.

Together, the three of them ran down the hallway, dodging people and debris as they went. Kelvin could hear more gunshots behind them, but he refused to look back. He was focused on getting Leticia and the other woman to safety.

Eventually, they made it to the back door, and Kelvin pushed it open. They stepped out into the cool night air, and Kelvin felt a sense of relief wash over him.

"Thank you," the young woman said, turning to Kelvin and Leticia. "I don't know what I would have done without you."

Kelvin smiled. "We're just glad we could help."

As the woman disappeared into the night, Kelvin turned to Leticia. "Are you okay?" he asked, concern etched on his face.

She nodded, and he felt a wave of relief wash over him. He had only known her for a few hours, but already, he cared about her deeply.

They exchanged numbers and made plans to see each other again. As Kelvin walked back to his car, he couldn't shake the feeling that he had just met someone special. Leticia had captivated him in a way that no one else ever had, and he couldn't wait to see where their relationship would go.
