As the doors didn't swing shut I guessed he was still following me in to the pub, why was he so scared of coming in here? If he was going to tag along with me all night he was not going to bring me down to his bad mood. As I strode to the bar I suddenly realised all they eyes in the pub looked at me, like I was not supposed to be in here, then at the exact same moment they all went back to Corban. Maybe this was why he didn't wont me to come in here, I now realised that's what he was trying do, keep me out. When I final got to the bar, the sound of all the talking and the music came back to life, the bar tender was there already but so was Corban.
"I think ill have a pint Jim. And Lilly what do you wont?" both Corban and Jim stared at me.
"Ill have double vodka and coke and a pint please" Jim walked off picking up two glasses on the way and retrieving a smaller one near the top of the bar.
"I see what you mean about drinking now" Corban started to laugh but still uneasy.
"Ill let you go after your first if you wont, I wouldn't won't too embarrass you" he laughed at this to. When our drinks came I drank the vodka and coke quickly and then most off the pint. Corban was also nearly finished when another very good looking man not as lovely as Corban but close, came over to wear we stood but he looked at Corban and then stood by me.
"Hey Corban who's your little friend?" this boy seamed to almost smell me when he mentioned me.
"This is Bens cousin, you know my friend Ben from school, Lilly here will be joining us tommore" They both stared at each other for what seamed like hours while I drank the rest of my drink
"Thirsty were we?" the new boy asked me, this was a rhetorical question.
"Yes, thank you, but Im off now, I guess ill see you around" I started to walk again but Corban was already at my side. I eyed him up and down I had expected him to stay with the boy at the bar and Jim.
"Sorry about that, that was my brother Sebastian. He can be a bite nosy. So I guess we're off to the shop now then" we both walked at a very fast past but we were soon at the shop. I didn't know were the alcohol was in this particular shop I hadn't been here before. Corban had though and we went straight there. I walked straight past him because he was stood in front of the beer, I wonted something stronger and easier to drink, after awhile anyway. I picked up the strongest bottle of vodka they had it was 40, nothing compared to some of the polish stuff but I would wait and order that off line. I picked up another just in case one didn't do it tonight.
We walked in through the top of the park and found the nearest bench. The park was very dark even though it must have only been seven or eight, it didn't bother me that I couldn't really see, and it didn't even really bother me that he had to hold my hand to find our way through the dark night, His hands seamed to be very cold but I put that to the weather. Staring out at the empty park not knowing if I should offer some to him because I did have two bottles or if I should even drink it neat in front of him. I decided that it didn't matter the worst he could do was tell on me, and even then all that my aunt and uncle could do was stop me going out, and I didn't see that as being hard to do in this small town. So I unscrewed the cap and put the bottle to my lips hesitating, did I really won't to start my stay here with the first nice person I'd met think im an alcoholic? Did I really won't to get completely plastered and have to have my first day at school tommore? It was too late by then the taste had hit my mouth and I had subconsely started to drink it, I thought this a little odd maybe I was turning into an alcoholic? I had already drunk about half before he said anything.
"Your making me trying to stop what I wont to do very hard you know?" he seamed to be clenching his fits into balls on his knees, I wonder why my drinking was making his self control harder to keep over what he wonted?
"Why are you planning to kidnap me and kill me off?" I started to chuckle until I met his gaze this was odiously not the time for games
"Are you?" my tone was now more serious. His body started to tighten next to me.
"Something like that maybe, I was hoping that you would drink a lot and make it easy for me to make that the excuse but I don't wont to do it now.." he seamed to be keeping something from me that was linked to what he was saying, I knew he was only saying this much because he knew I would forget it in the morning. I drank the rest of my bottle and we sat in silence. I waited for the numbness that the alcohol brought and the warming it made in my stomach when I drank to much, I was starting to get warm from it I could feel it in my cheeks. He sighed next to me, I turned to see why he was sighing but he was staring at me in disbelief.
"Its not normal for someone to drink that much and not be at the very least tipsy" I looked to see what he was going on about I was already on my second bottle. I knew this was going to be a very expensive habit, especially seen as I would have to start drinking more and more every time.
" Well im not a normal person, it would seam that my body takes what it needs from the alcohol and puts it to better use than normal people do" he looked at me like I had gone insane, I think I had, or maybe it was just the vodka who knew. At that point I knew that the vodka was starting to kick it because everything was starting to get a funny haze. It was about time as well I had just drunk two seventy CL bottles of vodka. Corban looked at me, he seamed to making a decision, I think it was weather or not to take me home or to leave me here.
"Do you wont me to take you home now?" I started to chuckle maybe all this alcohol was making me physic.
"Is that a no?" he was growing impatient with my dithering.
"Well I think maybe we should start to head home an then it can kick in when im safe in bed" he knew I was right from the fact he let me gather myself before steadying me so I didn't fall flat on my face right at his feet.
We walked home slowly just to make sure that I didn't fall flat on my face. I was growing more and more unsteady as the vodka started to settle into my system. Corban pulled a face as if he smelled something disgusting.
"Do you know why people get more drunk off of sprits?" he asked me in a serious tone.
"Yes because sprits go straight into the blood stream and that's why you get alcohol poisoning, because you drink it too quickly and it gets in your blood to quickly" I was sure my words were starting to slur. I picked up the pace because I could now see the house and I wonted to be a little coherent when I got in.
"Well I see that your very informed, I cant think why that would be" as he said the last part he started to eye me up and down.
"Are you trying to insinuate something with that look or did I offended you in some way?" I had started to wobble by now I didn't believe I would be ok to go back to the house in this state. So I sat on the curb and lay down. I knew this was not the last thing I wonted him to remember about me, that I was some silly girl who drank to much and slept on the streets to ovoid her relatives. But to my surprise he came and sat by me I knew that anything he said now I wouldn't remember in the morning because I was still not sure what was actually happening.
"I think this is the most sensible thing you've done all night… if your going to get drunk like this before you go home them maybe on your first night in town then maybe you shouldn't go home they wouldn't be pleased" as he spoke he pulled out a phone and put it to his ear he was talking to who ever he was on the phone to.
"Right then are you ok to be carried?" I didn't understand what he was asking me really but I nodded anyway. Before I knew it I was in his arms.
"What are you doing, I weigh like a tone put me down I can walk im sure" this time the words did come out slurred but he seamed to understand me just because he started to laugh.
"You cant even talk I don't think you can walk im going to take you back to my place and you can sleep it off their" I was about to demand that he put me down an let me walk. But were to far away from the house now I would defiantly not be able to make it back without falling now, how was he walking so fast with me in his arms? He didn't even look like he was struggling. His breathing was even, the look on his face was the only thing that looked like it was struggling and I didn't know why that was. We had reached a tall building with several windows with bright lights shinning out of them, I wondered what time it was, I was sure it couldn't be that late it wouldn't be that late with this many lights on. We walked in through the door big enough for both of us and he headed for the stairs there seamed to be a lot of them, I was now sure that we were in a building of flats.
"You… cant… carry…Me…up…all…those…stairs" I had to say it slowly because I was sure that it would be too slurred to be hared properly, and he did seamed to understand my slow talk.
"Don't worry your not at all heavy, if I didn't think you would just through it right back up id give some food with high fat quantises" he was laughing with himself I didn't understand a word he was saying I was far to drunk, I didn't know why he was using such big words when I was this drunk? He ran up the stairs I wish I would remember this in the morning so that I could thank him but I was sure that I wouldn't and I didn't think that this glorious boys girlfriend would like it very much if I stayed. I knew he had a girlfriend because someone this lovely, kind and good looking wasn't single or didn't stay single for very long. That must have been who he was on the phone to. There was a light knock on the door. I didn't know how id ended up on his sofa and I couldn't really see what the room really looked like, this was defiantly the wrong thing to do.
