Other Info: Thought about this whilst having a shower. Also features Yukie and Yuka. Not an easy subject with a character who never let alcohol pass her lips, but here goes.

Night on the Tiles

The school year had just finished, and everyone was celebrating. Some of the older students would obviously have a drink with any friends, Satomi knew all too well, but she still wasn't the one to even try anything boozy. Even as Yukie and the other girls were downing their first bottle of Bacardi Breezer each. Satomi still wanted to be a model student, even if that meant not touching alcohol during the holidays. Yukie though, certainly had other ideas.

''Come on, Satomi'', she spluttered, whilst trying to hold back a hiccup, ''Try one, they are nice''.

''No thanks'', Satomi replied, ''I'm alright''.

''Satomi'', Yuka cut in, ''you're the only one still not to try this stuff, and it's the hols. Come on, just the once. You don't have to do it again''.

Satomi knew she couldn't argue, as the others would just take the Mickey out of her. ''All right'', she sighed, ''but only the once''.

Yukie handed her a bottle, and Satomi took a sip from it to see what it was like. ''Not bad'', she replied, ''In fact, I rather like it''. And without saying another word, she finished the bottle, and already she was starting to grin carelessly. ''Can I have another?'' she asked. ''That's the spirit'' Yuka replied, and handed Satomi another bottle without question.

By the time Satomi finished her sixth bottle, she was in as much of a state as the others. All of them equally pissed, and staggering across the street on the way home, but hey, they'd enjoyed themselves, and that's what mattered.

It was only when she woke up in the morning that Satomi really knew what she had let herself in for. Waking up in a drunken haze and with a pounding headache, she felt a mess. She looked like one in the mirror as well. Her clothes were damp, and still had the smell of those drinks. While she had enjoyed herself that night, Satomi made a mental note to herself while she recovered in bed: Never Again. She had done it the once, and she wouldn't do it again, just as she said.
