[A/N: I guess you can assume this is taking place during the graduation party? I dunno, excusemethatsnotcanon on Tumblr asked for a beer pong story. So here you go!]
"I appreciate that she's down to party, but it severely ruins the point of beer pong if one of the contestants doesn't drink beer!"
"Well... But... Chloe, c'mon, it's Kate!"
"I-I don't have to play. I just thought it would be fun. I'll just stand here and watch instead..."
"That's just not even fair, look at how adorable she is. But it's also not fair if she's not imbibing! It gives their team a major advantage."
Like Katniss Everdeen, Victoria stepped forward bravely. "I'll drink for both of us..."
Kate gave an overly dramatic gasp and latched onto her. "Baby no! You'll never make it."
But the blonde just cupped her chin and kissed her heroically. "And when I fall, you will be there to carry me, my love..." She could practically hear Courtney rolling her eyes across the room.
"Hurry up, nerds, there are other people who want to play!" The elbow from Dana wasn't quite fast enough to silence Juliet's jeering. "Ow! What, we were all thinking it. They're adorable schtick does tend to wear out it's welcome over time..."
The argument could have gone on a good deal longer, but Victoria had spoken and there was no hope changing her mind. So the game got underway.
Of course Chloe was a beer pong champ and sank her first shot. Victoria knocked back the drink and immediately retaliated with a matching shot, forcing the bluenette to drink as well. Max's first shot whiffed, but Kate managed to sink a shot as well. The pattern went on as it usually did, ping pong balls into cups, drinking, and significantly more missing over time – except for Kate. She wasn't a pro, but the lack of beer in her system meant that her hit-ratio was higher.
Poor Victoria was starting to look a little green, but there were still three cups left on each side. Her girlfriends had all been very understanding, but she knew her time had come to be a big girl. "Go take a seat, sweetie, I'll handle this. I'll drink the rest."
"Katie, no! I-I-I cin do ittt... You're a pure, preshus simanim roll an'..."
Kate giggled brightly and motioned for someone to escort her to get some water. She turned back to face Chloe and Max looking at her from across the table. "Our little baby's all grown up, Max..."
"I'm so proud, Chlo'~" she replied, wiping an invisible tear from her cheek.
"Come on, we have to finish before there's a riot." Before she could say any more, Chloe launched a ping pong ball into one of the cups with an eager grin. "Right..." With a brave grimace, Kate swallowed the contents in one go, trying not to heave. The effect was immediate and she missed her next shot. It didn't take long for the combined efforts of Max and Chloe to finish up their remaining two shots. She wasn't happy about it, but to everyone's amazement she did it, slamming down the third plastic cup like a drunken dwarf with a stein. The party erupted in cheers, though no one was totally sure if it was for the others' victory or Kate's drinking.
She went to the couch where Victoria was hanging out and sat in her lap, kissing her passionately on the lips. "Di' we win?" Victoria was still concerned, and it was incredibly sweet.
"Nope!" Kate replied with a wide grin and kissed her once more.
