Just a fun little one shot that has been buzzing around in my head for a while.
A big thank you goes to my beta, Luxe de Luxe. She is a genius.
Drunk and Disorderly – One Shot
"Where the hell is she? She was supposed to be here an hour ago!"
Josef was enjoying Mick's torment, and couldn't resist adding a little more fuel to the fire.
"Relax Mick. You know how these office parties are. She's probably just lost track of time. That, or she's making out with Talbot in the supply closet" he said trying to hide his smirk as he poured himself another drink.
Mick stopped and shot him a warning glare as he spoke through gritted teeth. "Not in the mood Josef" and resumed his pacing. "What the hell is a Christmas in July party anyway?"
Before Josef could answer, his office phone rang and Mick lunged for the receiver with a little less finesse than he would have liked.
"Beth?" his voice a mix of agitation and relief.
"Hiya handsome. What cha wearing?" She purred, her speech slightly slurred.
Hearing her seductive tone, Josef settled back into his chair thinking he could be a few minutes late for his date with Simone.
"Are you alright. I was getting a little worried"
"Yeah, just a little" Josef laughed.
"I'm fine baby. I've just had too many drives so Ben's going to drink me."
Mick froze mid step. His eyes flashed silver, his fangs itching for release. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself as he listened to a giggling Beth on the end of the line.
"Oops, no, that's not right. I've had too many drinks so Benji's going to drive us?" she announced proudly.
"Like fuck Benji is" Mick whispered. Josef chuckled thoroughly enjoying the show.
"Who's us Beth?"
"Ohhhhh, Simone's here with me. She just loves margaritas Mick."
Josef's head snapped to attention hearing Simone's name and was instantly on his feet.
"Not so funny now is it smart arse" Mick whispered, for vampire ears only.
"Benji said he'd love to give us both a ride."
"Jesus Mick, can she possibly fuck up her words any worse?" Josef spat.
Slightly relieved now that Josef shared his pain, Mick tried to gain some control over the situation.
"Baby, how about you girls stay put and we'll be there in 15 minutes, OK?"
"OK sexy. Can't wait to see you" The line disconnected before he could respond.
They were already in the elevator as Josef fished the keys from his pocket.
"We're taking the Ferrari, it's faster."
