Undeniably Wanted

-Heather's POV

Beep Beep Beep

Flipping over, I hit my loud alarm clock turning it off. I begin stretching and letting my eyes flutter open. The bright morning light is seeping in with the sunrise coming up. Throwing the duvet off my legs, my feet taking me to the curtains before I yank them open. Stepping out on my private balcony, I take in the sight below me. The early waves crashing in and no one in sight to see. I close my eyes, inhale deeply and enjoy the breeze rushing through my hair.

I walk back inside and begin throwing my hair up into a pony tail before going into my closet. Throwing on some tight leggings with a sports bra and some tennis shoes, I decide to peak in on my best friend to make sure she got home okay last night. Opening the door, my eyes catch sight of her sprawled out on her bed. I smile at her before closing the door and getting out of our home. I lock the door before walking down to the beach. The wind blowing my hair while I begin my morning run.

Hi, my name is Heather Drake. I am 22 years old and an appointed teacher for Dalton Academy. I recently got hired there after leaving my families business and family in New York. I have long blonde hair that flows down to my waist with blue eyes. I have been complimented on my appearance but I don't pay much attention to it. Everyone is beautiful in their own way. I am currently living with my long time best friend Cami Taylor. A current a bartender at one of the night clubs here in town. We worked together this previous summer but now that I am going to be teaching, I recently quit. Living here for two months now has definitely turned me into a beach bum. I love it here! The constant warm weather and the never ending night life. You can never get bored.

"Seriously, this early in the morning H?" My best friend groans walking into the kitchen. Her hands rubbing down her face. I snicker at her before handing her a cup of coffee.

"How was your night Cam?" My tone amused while putting some milk in her coffee for her while she gets settled on a bar stool.

"Looonnnngggg." She elongates before sighing and taking a sip of the coffee. "Atleast the money is good." She gives me sheepish smile which makes me smile in return. "How do you find the energy to get up before the sun every morning just to run?" She scrunches up her nose in disgust thinking about working out.

"Not all of us could be blessed with your beauty Cami." I say rolling my eyes. She begins laughing hysterically.

"Girl, please... You don't have to run and you would still look A-MAZE-ING." She stresses out causing me to chuckle.

"Whatever you say Cami."

Cami is an incredible spunky spirit. She is outgoing and has made me come out of my shell. She is beyond gorgeous and I would be loss without her. We met back in grade school and her father was in the military. She got relocated but we kept in touch even with the move. She lost her dad about 3 years ago and her mother couldn't stay in this house anymore so she invited me to move in with her which I gladly did with my current situation.

"So I gotta work tonight, do you want to come?" She asked looking at me. "You know the team would love to see you again."

"Yea, I think it would be fun." I smile thinking about all the incredible people I've gotten to meet working there. The club was called Midnight til Sunrise. It had been here for many years and a favorite for locals.

"Great!" Cami says gleaming. She walks over to me and gives me a kiss on the cheek. "Alright sunrise, this goddess needs to take a shower." She states dramatically while flipping her hair over her shoulder causing me to giggle at her. She is certainly one of a kind.

"Welcome back Sunrise!" The club manager says with open arms. I run up to him and hug him tightly. He squeezes me back. "You miss us yet?"

"You know I love this place!" I say smiling big.

"Good because you should be an angel and help behind the bar tonight!" He says giving me puppy dog eyes. My eyes bulge opens at him while my jaw drops open. "Oh, come on Heather! I'm desperate. Liz called in and I can't put Cami back there since she is running the floor." He pleads with me. I smirk at him and put my hands on my hip giving him an amused look. He puts his hands together acting like he is praying. Rolling my eyes, I sigh defeated. He thrust his hands up knowing he just won.

"You owe me Sam!" I shout watching him retreat. Looking over to Cami who is grinning, I glare at her and she just begins skipping away. "Thanks for the help Cami!" I yell at her.

"You're welcome!" She sings smiling over her shoulder. I go to the lockers and put on a pair of the short black shorts and a plain black black t-shirt. I don't bother putting my hair back and let my blond hair cascade down my back. I sigh before heading to the bar. Here we go!

The night is going by pretty smoothly. I have Kurt behind the bar with me and the crowd is decent size tonight. Cami and Lexi are running the floor with Sam watching over everything. I am serving the drinks and only had a few guys get a little too flirty but Kurt help keep them in check. The night was almost over when Sam decided to surprise me.

"Alright everyone, your in for a treat tonight! Our own Sunrise has return to sing for us tonight." I glare up at him and begin shaking my head. The crowd begins turning towards me and clapping. Cami comes up to me and begins pulling my arm towards the stage.

"Cami stop! I don't want-" I don't even get to finish before she shoves me on stage sticking her tongue out at me. I look at Sam who has a sheepish smile.

"Here she is everyone- Please welcome... Sunrise!" He announces like I'm a celebrity. I glare at him one last time before he runs off stage. I turn towards the crowd who are all looking at me interested to see what I will do.

"Hi everyone, I apologize I didn't know I would be singing tonight but I will sing one of my favorites." I say before sighing and closing my eyes.

Breathin by Ariane Grande starting playing. I closed my eyes and began singing the song. Letting the lyrics run off my tongue, I just enjoy the song.

Just keep breathin' and breathin' and breathin' and breathin'

And oh, I gotta keep, keep on breathin'

Just keep breathin' and breathin' and breathin' and breathin'

And oh, I gotta keep, keep on breathin

I opened my eyes and instantly found Cami smiling brightly at me. My hips began swaying and releasing all my feelings in the song. I continued singing when my eyes landed on a pair of electric blue eyes that I couldn't look away from. Staring at the stranger, I finished the song.

Feel my blood runnin', swear the sky's fallin'

I keep on breathin'

Time goes by and I can't control my mind

I keep on breathin', mmm, yeah

I look away from the stranger over to Sam who is walking back on stage clapping. I bow handing him the mic back while he just smiles proudly at me.

"Let's give another round of applause for our little Sunrise!" He says and continues clapping while everyone else cheers louder. I just bow my head again and give a small wave walking off the stage. Cami comes up and hugs me tightly while I feel a lot of eyes still on me. My eyes searching for the stranger but don't see him there anymore. I shrug and walk behind the bar again where Kurt gives me a side hug.

The night whines down, Cami and I ended up leaving early and heading home since Sam was grateful for my help. The moment we get home, I throw myself on my bed and snuggle into it. Drifting off to a deep slumber and wondering what awaits me at my new job next week.
