Chapter 1: Mindless Prank
"Andy lost! Drink!" Chris shouted at me. We were joined by our other good friend Josh, who contributed in trying to make me drink the dark whiskey. We had been playing for a while and the rule was whoever lost had to take a shot...I was really regretting making that stupid rule up.
"You guys I can't!" I groaned and looked at Chris through my barely open eyes. "This is like my fifth one, look at my face." I slurred as I felt my whole body and face become hotter and hotter. "I was finished three shots ago."
"How is it that you get the Asian glow and Emily doesn't?" Josh laughed.
"It's not fair." I whined.
"You now what's not fair? That shot glass is still full." Josh persisted.
I gave him a drunken look, "You should be taking it for dragging me all the way up here."
"Whatever, you know you love it up here." He laughed. I looked at the both of them through my blurred vision before trying to concentrate in front of me at the shot glass filled to the brim with the dark liquor. Taking one deep breath I downed the shot and felt it burn the back of my throat and chest before settling in my stomach.
"There's the Andy we know and love!" I heard someone yell from behind and turned to see a blurred figure until he got closer and I could see Mike's handsome features followed by Sam, Emily and Jess. "Let's keep this party going!" He exclaimed and wrapped his arm around my shoulders.
"We've played all the card games and Andy has lost the most...just look at him." Chris laughed, a little drunk himself.
"Aww someone can't handle their liquor?" Mike teased and pinched my cheek. I just pouted my lips and pulled away from him. "How about a good ole game of spin the bottle?" He smiled and bit his lips as he pulled me closer to him. He continued to tease and poke me until Emily scoffed up.
"Babe, are you in the 7th grade?" She huffed with her arms crossed and popped her hip out. I could feel myself falling in and out of consciousness as I heard Sam and Jess arguing on about something until Chris interrupted.
He lout a big sigh and had a grin on his face, "Andy..you're cute." He smiled without his eyes open and rested his head on the countertop. I looked to my other side and see Josh already passed out and Chris was about to join him.
I followed the others and began to rest my head on the countertop. I let out big sigh before finally laying my head down.
But as soon as I did I heard someone yelling, "Don't you guys think this is a little bit cruel?"It was Sam's voice she must have been getting into it with Jess.
My eyes were a little closed but I could still hear the girls arguing. "It's not her fault she has a huge crush on Mike." I heard Sam's voice again and I knew they were talking about Hannah.
"Wh-wait..s-stop.." I tried mumbling but I guess they couldn't understand or hear me. I thought Hannah's crush was purely innocent and whatever was about to happen I could feel it was about to get out of hand so I tried to get up no matter how incoherent I sounded. I was standing up but it felt like I was in the washing machine being spun around. My voice made a noise to speak up but nothing came out and I nearly fumbled over. I felt like I was suddenly yanked away. My feet were no longer on the ground. My arms and legs dangled as I felt strong arms carrying me.
"Oh Ryan Gosling..." I slurred.
"Gosling got nothing on me baby." Someone replied and it sounded a lot like Mike. He was carrying me out of the kitchen. I had no idea where he was taking me but the only thing that mattered to me was trying not to throw up. I could hear the yelling becoming quieter and quieter until it was just muffled noise. All of sudden I felt my body being laid down and soft cushions against my face.
"Last to drink and first to pass out." Mike chuckled.
"I can still hear you." I drunkenly replied and rubbed my face.
"Shhh." Mike hushed me and put a finger up to my lips, "I would have drank for you, you know." He laughed and I felt him push the hair from my forehead, "Then I'd be in that bed with you."
I didn't know if I heard him correctly but I just figured I was drunk and this was just Mike being Mike. As long as I've known him, he's like that straight friend that touches and flirts with you constantly but always has a girlfriend. But some people might have thought he liked grabbing my ass a little too much.
I just let out a groan and turned over. My eyes were heavily resting and a drunk grin was plastered on my face.
I heard Mike let out a huff before telling me goodnight and finally leaving me to sleep. It only felt like a few minutes had passed but I'm sure it was more like an hour or so. My drunken sleep was interrupted by some kind of commotion coming from outside of the room I was in. There was a split second of laughter followed by yelling.
"Relax Hann it was just a joke!" Someone yelled and I quickly recognized it as Emily's, her voice was unapologetic and insincere. I could see her saying that with her resting bitch face on. I shuffled around in bed and ignored all the talking coming from outside and returned to my alcohol induced sleep.
So I've decided to redo some chapters. I just wanted to clean up the story a little bit and change a few things.
