Adrian, Terrence and Marcus were up first. They had finished taking their showers and had called room service to bring breakfast for six people. Angelina, Alicia, and Katie were still asleep.
"Interesting night last night was eh mates?" Terrence questioned as he remembered all of the encounters that they had. The three men exchanged glances and nodded their heads in agreement.
"Yeah, how do you think Katie and Angelina ended up with prats like those for exes?" wondered Marcus allowed.
"Yeah and mates? What about Alicia and her identity disorder?" questioned Adrian causing the men to chuckle.
"I DO NOT HAVE AN IDENTITY DISORDER!" Alicia's voice bellowed as she scrunched up her nose. All the men looked towards her direction and saw that Katie and Angelina were next to her.
Angelina couldn't help but giggle " Come on Samantha it's perfectly okay to have an identity disorder." causing Alicia to grab a nearby pillow to hit her with.
"Megan that's not very polite" giggled Katie and gained her turn with the pillow.
"Okay that's enough!" said Terrence trying to stop the girls from getting into a pillow fight. "Come on Angelina, Katie, and Amanda lets have breakfast" There were even more roars of laughter that came along and a fuming Alicia made her way to join them, but not before hitting Terrence with the pillow.
Katie and Angelina kept on laughing " Go ahead laugh it up, at least I loved plenty! That's more than either of you two can say for yourselves." Alicia stated in utter irritation. The conversation was getting interesting and a bit intense.
"Bagel Anyone?" questioned Marcus trying to remove some of the tension.
"Loved plenty? OH YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" said Katie
"Ok so no bagel..." said Marcus as bowed his head down.
"She's right Alicia, in case it never occured to you, I think that both people have to have trust in order to have love. And with none of your exes knowing your real name I'd say trust is something you've never had." Angelina said.
"Strawberries ladies?" Terrence offered but none of the girls were listening and Alicia was starting to get angrier.
"OH HELL NO! I AM NOT GETTING A LECTURE FROM MASON'S EX PUNCHING BAG, AND THE WOMAN WHO WAS ABOUT TO MARRY SOMEONE SHE WASN'T ATTRACTED TO OR EVEN CLOSE TO BEING IN LOVE WITH!" at this everyone was silent.
"So no strawberries. How about some coffee?" Adrian asked. Katie, Angelina, and Alicia were all staring at each other. Daring each other to say something else.
After a few more minutes of silence "I'M SORRY" all three girls said to each other at ones.
The three men all had their eyebrows raised in confusion. The girls were at each others throats for one minute and they were happy the next.
" Hey I'm hungry do I smell bagels?" asked Katie as Marcus slapped his head in exasperation.
"Coffee sounds great right about now." said Angelina and Adrian handed her some shaking his head.
" I want..." but before she could finish Terrence put a bowl of strawberries in front of Alicia.
As they were eating two owls flew in. Alicia grabbed the two letters from each owl. " Here boys this is for you, and this is for us. Must be another practice session." stated Alicia as she looked at the envelope.
"Yep sure is July 20th" Marcus confirmed as he finished reading his letter.
" Okay cool, that gives us time to do stuff. I'm going to look for vineyards . I've been wanting to visit one of those." said Katie with a grin. Angelina and Alicia were holding in giggles that were dying to come out.
"What are you guys smirking at?" she questioned as she stared at the two girls.
" Well, sorry Kates but you and alcohol are kind of a hilarious combo." laughed Alicia, as Angelina joined in.
"Do you remember when you had a bit of eggnog last Christmas season. Remember how you were trying to show Santa Clause just how you made the naughty list?" grinned Angelina.
Angelina began to continue the story but Katie quickly covered her mouth. "I'm sure the boys don't want to hear anything of that." she stated.
"Oh contraire Miss Bell. I think we'd all love to hear it." said Marcus as he wagged his eyebrows earning himself a glare from Katie.
"Well...it started when.." Alicia began
"Keep your trap shut Spinnet! Or I'll tell them about France!" Katie warned shutting Alicia up instantly.
"As for you, don't think I've forgotten about that incident involving you, a few police men, and couple of ..." Katie stated to Angelina.
"DEAL." all three girls stated in unison.
"I can take you the vineyards. I'm sure you'll love it." said Marcus " I mean that is if you don't mind my company."
She smiled and accepted Marcus's offer.
Terrence, and Adrian gave him smirks when Kate wasn't looking.
After the girls had finished taking showers they all decided to take a walk outside before apparating back to the estate. As they were walking, they heard the sound of a motorcycle coming. As the motorcycle approached they saw a very attractive, shirtless man riding on it. Alicia, Katie, and Angelina mouths dropped as the cyclist drove pass them.
"Nice tan!" said Katie
"Nice bod!" exclaimed Alicia.
"Nice Bike." stated Angelina causing Katie and Alicia to roll their eyes at her. "What?" she questioned.
"Only you of all girls would notice a motorcycle before you notice a man." they laughed.
"She can't help it if she has good taste" said Marcus who was irritated at the way Katie had made goo goo eyes at the cyclist who had just past by.
"I'm sorry but any other girl would have noticed the hunk of man that was on top of the bike. I mean rock hard abs, lean shoulders.." began Alicia causing Terrence to roll his eyes.
Angelina had heard enough. "Look I'm sorry, but I've always wanted to learn how to ride one of those things. I never got that chance because stupid Davies said it wasn't ladylike. But, I'll I agree the guy was not bad looking, perhaps if he passes by again I could ask him to teach me." she grinned.
"I could teach you." Adrian blurted out instantly causing the girls to turn and face him.
"Really? You know how to ride a motorcycle?" asked Angelina.
"He owns all of the best Motorcycle Manufacturing companies Angelina. He's got all kinds from magic to none magic." explained Terrence.
"Wow, that's awesome." said Alicia "Angelina you should take him up on his offer."
"Um...yeah sure sounds great." she said a little apprehensively. Adrian looked at her intently.
"Are you sure, you seem a little bit hesitant." he questioned her.
"No, no not at all. I would love for you teach me." she managed to convince him with a smile.
" So what about you Alicia, what are you going to be doing for the week?" asked Angelina trying to get the eyes off of her and Adrian.
"Hmm...Oh yeah. I'm trying to actually find a few waterfronts with spaces available. I wanted to see if I could open a few Spinnet's Thrice near some." she said. Marcus and Adrian looked at Terrence with a smirk.
"You do know that Terrence owns a lot of muggle and wizarding real estate. Not to mention he also has an architectural company that have bases all over the world don't you?" Adrian asked.
"It's funny really, how the six of us were apart for so long and yet everything we all need is within each other." grinned Marcus. The three girls wore smiles on their faces but were all silent.
"Um maybe we should get back home." said Katie and everyone agreed. When they arrived home Katie, and Angelina joined Alicia in her room. All three of them had wanted to discuss their current situations.
"So Ange, do you have a thing for Pucey?" asked Alicia with a grin her smile.
"No!" Angelina replied a little to fast letting Alicia and Katie know that she was lying.
"Ange, it's okay I mean it would actually be nice to see you going out with someone who is actually your type for once." stated Katie as Alicia nodded in agreement.
"Look we are not going out. He's just teaching me to ride a motorcycle that's all. It's no big deal." she said in frustration. "Besides I would think of going to romantic vineyards and checking out romantic waterfront properties would seem more like going out ." she shot back making the other girls jump up in defense.
"I, for one am going wine tasting." said Katie " I'm only going with him to taste wine!"
"Oh and the fact that Mr. Flint's lips look quite tasty has never crossed you mind?" said Angelina slyly causing Alicia to giggle.
"As for you Alicia, I don't think that waterfront property is the only type of property that Terrence has that keeps you interested." Angelina said
"Alright, you want to play this game. What if I told that I don't think it's just motorcycles your interested in." said Alicia
"Of course it's all I'm interested, I mean all that power between you legs." she said in defense.
"I'm pretty sure that you wouldn't mind Adrian's power between your legs either." laughed Katie causing Angelina to glare at her.
They spent the rest of the hour talking about how they were not interested in their housemates. The more they insisted, the more they didn't believe each other.
Down in the living room the men were having their own conversations. "So Marc, you and Katie." began Adrian.
"Me and Katie what?" he said as he eyed his friend curiously.
"You have a thing for the old Gryffindor chaser don't you? Not that a blame you she's hot!" Adrian said knowingly with a grin.
"She's a friend. She's been through a lot and I just think she could use some happiness in her life right now." he explained.
"Oh and you want to be the one to give her that happiness?" grinned Terrence.
Marcus was becoming a little bit irritated. " Look I was horrible to her back in Hogwarts, I'm just trying to make up for it. In fact three of us were horrible to them." All of them went silent at this.
"Besides, it's not like you don't have a thing for the old captain." said Marcus referring to Angelina.
"No I don't." said Adrian right away.
" Oh you don't? So then I guess you wouldn't mind me asking her out on date then? I mean she's gorgeous and she's got legs that go on for days." Terrence said trying to see if he could the truth from Adrian by getting a rise out of him.
It worked, since Adrian shot him a death glare and said " You wouldn't dare!"
" I was only pulling the micky out of you. It's obvious you're into her." chuckled Terrence.
" Don't be so quick to judge Higgs. You've got Alicia on the brain. I saw how jealous you got when she looked at the biker today. Not that I blame you she's pretty easy on the eyes." said Marcus.
"Look. okay let's say hypothetically that we all fancied them in some way. Do you really think we stand a chance?" asked Adrian. " I mean I saw how hesitant Angelina was with me today to accept my offer to teach her. Remember the things that Katie went through who's to say that she's ready to go try again. Oh and Alicia, can you say issues?"
While they were talking they heard the girls coming down the stairway. "Look we all need to talk" said the voice of Alicia.
"Agreed , we think so too." said Marcus.
"Okay our outings are strictly platonic. Nothing more than friends going out right?" questioned Angelina as she looked at the boys.
"That's right we are all just friends who merely enjoy all of each others company." nodded Terrence.
"Great, now that we all have that understanding I feel much better." said Katie as Alicia and Angelina grinned at each other.
"Good wouldn't want any of you three to feel uncomfortable." said Adrian.
A few moments later they headed to their rooms to rest. Katie wasn't asleep and she knocked on Alicia's and Angelina's doors. " Look I need your help with something. As both of you know I can get a little out of hand with alcohol." she began " I was wondering if you could help me know my limit."
"You want to drink right now?" asked Angelina who thought it was kind of unusual for Katie to be asking at 11 in the evening.
"Why not? I mean the boys are asleep so I won't have to worry about them seeing me drunk. It's better to do it here with you guys so I don't get into trouble with anyone at the bars." she explained herself.
"Katie, it's 11 in the evening. You just expect me and Angelina to watch you get wasted?" said Alicia looking at her like she had lost her mind.
"Of course not! I want both of you to drink with me."
Alicia and Angelina sighed knowing that Katie wouldn't quit until she got what she wanted.
Alicia, and Angelina apparated to their businesses to get some of their best liquor and were back within minutes. They all quietly made their way into the kitchen so as not to wake anyone.
"What do you want to make?" Angelina asked.
"Let's make everything." said Katie and they began to whip up some margaritas, zangrias, sex on the beaches and dacharies.
After the first serving of margaritas they were all okay. They were pretty sober. Nothing unusual. As time went on they found out all of their max levels.
"Okay so apparently it is six...six glasses of alcohol." said Katie who was hiccupping.
"Yeah four just makes me really horny..." giggled Angelina.
"You sure? I could have sworn I was horny at three." laughed Alicia .
"But your always horny Alicia!" said Katie and there was silence " Oops did I say that allowed loud?" and they all let out fits of loud laughter.
"Shh... vineyard, waterfront, and instructor might hear. Wouldn't want to wake them." said Alicia.
"Yeah, they might be having nice dreams." giggled Angelina
"Yeah dreams...I had a...had...a...wet dream of ...Marcus the other night?" giggled Katie.
"I KNEW YOU LIKED HIM!" Alicia shouted and covered her mouth quickly when she realized how loud she was.
"Alicia shhhhhhhh!" you don't want them to catch like this warned Angelina.
"Catch you like what?" said Adrian's voice from behind them. He and the men had all woken up. They were all a bit cranky since it was almost 1 in the morning.
"Uh Oh" said Katie "You weren't suppose to catch and all drunk and horny!" she giggled. The men's crankiness withered away at the sight of the drunken girls.
" Hey, sexy...want a give it a go?" Alicia said as she wagged her eyebrows at Terrence.
"Okay, Leesh I think you've had enough." said Terrence.
"Katie, I think you should get some rest now." said Marcus shaking his head but he couldn't keep from smiling.
"Hey you're usually very submissive in all my dreams, the dry and wet! Behave Marcus." grinned Katie causing Marcus to turn a shade of red.
Angelina tried to stand up but she lost her balance, and almost fell but Adrian caught her.
"Good heavens...you are so freakin hot." Angelina stated and he held her up to keep balance. "I've been wanting to do this for a long time" and with that she pressed her lips onto Adrian's and she knocked out in his arms.
"Hey that's not fair!" said Katie and she made her way to Marcus and proceeded to kiss him as well. "Mmm..that was quite lovely" she said as she made her way back to her chair and rested her head.
Alicia on the other was a little harder to deal with. She pounced on Terrence wrapping her legs around his waist. She kissed him roughly and whispered in his ears " Fuck Me." Terrence was laughing but he too turned a deep shade of red.
" Look I'm going to take this one to her room." said Adrian as he picked up Angelina and carried her up the stairs.
"Yeah, I'll do the same with that one over there." said Marcus who looked at Katie who had knocked out on her chair.
"And what exactly are you going to do with me?" grinned Alicia coyly as she rubbed her hands through Terrence's hair. He had no clue what to do just yet.
As Adrian was making his way to Angelina's room he remembered that he had never been in it and knew he couldn't get in so he brought her to his. After he laid her on his bed he sat in one of his chairs and just watched her until he fell asleep.
Marcus did the same thing with Katie, and he stayed far from the bed so he wouldn't startle her in the morning.
Alicia had finally calmed down enough so that Terrence could help her up to her room. "You're not coming in?" she asked. Terrence smiled and shook his head. He would not take advantage of her drunken state. "Sweet dreams Alicia."
"I know they'll be sweet, since you're always in them." she replied as she tipsily made her way to her bed.
Morning time came and Angelina eyes opened a blurry figure came into focus and she saw that it was Adrian who was already awake watching her. She got up and made let out a moan of pain. "Well that's what you get for drinking in the middle of the night." he chuckled.
"Which room is this?" she asked as she looked around.
"My room, I brought you here last night since you were knocked out. I also wanted to keep an eye on you to see if you were okay when you woke up." he smiled.
Angelina felt her cheeks flush, and had a pounding headache. "I hope I didn't do anything stupid." The girl was so embarrassed.
"I wouldn't say you did anything stupid" smiled Adrian remembering how she kissed him.
Meanwhile Marcus was helping Katie get up. She was definitely hung over.
"What on earth were you thinking, getting drunk like that in the middle of the night anyway?" asked Marcus.
"I just wanted to make sure that I didn't do or say anything too stupid while we were in the vineyards together." she explained.
"I didn't do anything too humiliating did I?" she asked. Marcus shook his head and grinned giving Katie a sense of relief.
Come on let's get some breakfast downstairs. Downstairs, they already saw Terrence and Alicia. Alicia was rubbing her temples while Terrence was attempting to brew something to ease Alicia's hangover.
"Terrence, I'll take care of the hangovers." said Angelina as she and Adrian made their way down the stairs followed by Katie and Marcus.
Terrence nodded and moved next to Alicia. "I must have made such a fool of myself last night" Alicia said as she buried her head in her arms.
As they drank the remedies that Angelina had made, they slowly began recollecting the events of last night.
As Angelina looked at Adrian she had a look of mortification. "Oh Merlin... I kissed you last night." she said as sunk her head in. "Adrian I'm so sorry I didn't mean to." she explained.
"It's okay you were pretty drunk. Of course after five large glasses of liquor who wouldn't be." he smiled making her feel a little bit of relief.
Katie was a deep, deep, shade of red. "Oh my goodness!" She remembered everything she did. She remembered the kiss and her telling Marcus that he was in her dreams.
"Marcus, please don't take anything of what happened last night seriously. I was drunk. Please, I know it's not an excuse but,..." she was rambling on but Marcus just grinned.
"It's forgotten, but maybe you should stick to one glass of wine at the vineyards." he smiled. Katie still couldn't look him in the eye.
Alicia was horrified as she remembered her actions. She was so embarrassed that she didn't even want to explain. She ran up the stairs but Terrence made his way to follow her.
"Alicia? What's the matter?" he smiled at her.
"Last night I was practically throwing myself at you." she said remembering herself trying to seduce him.
"Yes, but I know but it was only because you were drunk." he grinned.
"Come on, come back down." he said as he reached for her hand. She was hesitant at first but she accepted.
"Oh and Alicia?" he questioned and she looked up at him. "It was pretty difficult to turn you down."
This made her smile.
Friday came and it was the time that everyone decided to do their outings. The girls were getting ready and so were the men. Butterflies hit all of their stomachs. Sure they agreed their outings were all strictly platonic, however this would be the first time that each of them would be alone together. After the drunken events that happened earlier that week, things were sure to be very interesting.
