"JJ! I don't want to leave!" I looked over to the bartender. "Yo! Get me another beer pleashh!"

God, my slurring was getting even worse. I should stop drinking and leave with JJ...

But then again, I don't think so.

"Adrian! Come on! WE. NEED. TO. LEAVE!"

"No I think I'm gonna stay." I tried to get up, but I fell on my ass as soon as I got up.

"Adrian, please come on! We have to leave!"

I glared at him. "Why?"

He glared back, but he didn't say anything. He just pointed over to a group of people that had sat down at a table. I studied each of them as best as I could study with my drunken, blurry vision.

One was a big Asian guy with...no way! That was Jonah Maiava. I looked around to the others and was surprised by the sight.

Samantha Nishimura, Joslin Reyes, and Lara Croft!

I couldn't believe this! Why are they here and not at a fancy restaurant where there was less of a chance of them getting killed?!

I could've stayed there, staring at them for all eternity, but JJ picked me up and threw me over his shoulder and carried me out to the car despite my protests.

"JJ! I want to talk to Lara! Remember how we'd always hang out with her and Sam?!"

"Don't remind me about Sam..." JJ grumbled. I huffed. Why did he always have to be so goddamn grumpy? I was about to ask him that, but I stopped when I heard a shout.

"JJ! Rian!"

My eyes widened. It was Lara! Lara remembered us! I smiled and waved at her before JJ dumped me in the front seat of his Suburban. I saw him wave at Lara too before getting in the truck and driving away.

Great.

Now I'm probably not going to see her for another 50 years all because of my brother...
