No sign of Nikki.  He swore he had left her right here, only 5-6 minutes ago.  He made his way on the outskirts of the dance floor permitter with no sign of her. Thats when he spotted a stairway being guarded and a bouncer opening up access to the floor above, which was just an overlooking area of the dance floor below.<em>Perhaps she went up there for a look.</em>he thought, as he made his way over to the bouncer, who let him up.  He decided to sip his one drink, on the way up, the alcohol had him weaving a bit as he climbed the steps, and looked around to gather his bearings.  There was only a handful of people  and none of them his wife.<br/><br/>He rested on the railing, chugging the rest of his drink. He had no idea where she might have ventured off two, and the dance floor was super packed by now. He figured his best bet was to remain up here, where he had the vantage point of viewing the entire dance floor from above, in hopes of spotting her.<br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
