Saphire took Lilly home and went to her private room away from everyone. She stopped when she saw Kai outside her door and turned back. But he caught sight of her and called her name. Saphire stopped and turned round looking at him. She came up to Kai and he pushed her hair away from her face. There was a bruise in the shape of a hand on her face with a couple of cuts in the middle of it. "Whoever slapped you cut you with their nails."
"Do you like to state the obvious or is it a hobby?" She growled. She took a deep breath and looked at him not sure how she should do this. "Look, I'm sorry ok. I shouldn't have hit you."
Kai smirked and walked back to his place leaving Saphire alone. He got an apology but felt like he should've said something. 'If I did I probably would've made it worse.' He thought.
Later he went to check up on her and was greeted by a strange smell coming from her door. It was left open and he found her smoking weed with a couple of her friends from the party. Saphire lay back on her sofa with her eyes half closed. She was very wasted. Her friends were not so and seemed concerned for their friend. "How long has she been like this?"
"Two hours. She's smoked more than Lana and me put together." Kai turned to the stoned boy to see Lana had passed out and was sleeping it off. "What's your name?"
"David." The boy replied without taking his eyes off Saphire. "He sucks in the brains department but knows where to get the best skunk." Saphire replied and David scowled. She smirked and her eyes closed even more. "She becomes meaner when she's stoned." He sighed.
"What do you want Kai?" Saphire said turning her head towards him. "I'm not going to talk to you in this state." He said, Saphire retorted in Russian and he turned. (You should know by now that I don't know Russian so I'm going to translate in English.)
"I've already apologized so what do you want?" Kai raised an eyebrow. "I find it easier to talk in Russian when I'm stoned. So what is it?" She opened a bottle of whisky and took a deep slug as she listened to him. David had no idea what they were saying so he got back to his weed. "I promised Lilly I'd check up on you."
"Interfering brat. She means well but really hasn't got a clue." Kai agreed. "Well I suppose I'd better be the hostess. Want a drink?"
"No."
"What? To good to have a drink with us now?" Kai scowled and Saphire smirked. "This won't help you're pain go away." Saphire lowered her head. "I know that…but it helps." Much to her surprise Kai took the bottle of whisky out of her hands and took a slug. "Looks like I'm not the only one who's in pain." Kai gave the bottle back to Saphire and made his way out. "Aren't you going to stay a little while?" It almost sounded like she was asking him to stay. But she was probably too stoned to know what she meant. He looked over to her friends and she shook her head. David saw this but didn't much care since they were still talking in Russian.
"You can't really talk to them when they're stoned. I would feel a bit better knowing there was someone with more than two brain cells here besides me." Kai smirked. "People like that usually don't smoke weed."
Saphire laughed which surprised the hell out of David. "Good point. But like I said, it helps with what ails me." Kai sighed and sat beside her. For about an hour they stayed there drinking whisky and talking about nothing in particular. Kai could feel the effects of the whisky but didn't show it. Saphire looked at her watch when the whisky bottle became empty.
"David, take your sister home. I don't want to have anyone around tonight." She said this in plain English and he sighed. "How blunt can you get?" He muttered and Saphire smirked. Lana took a few minutes to wake up and was very groggy when she did. David got her to her feet and helped her out the door. "Who's the new boy?" She whispered. "Kai, Saphire's neighbor."
"Oh, bye Kai." He nodded as Lana was taken away.
"You'd better get going." Saphire said looking very sleepy. "I thought you wanted me to stay." Saphire shrugged. "You did, but now I want to go to bed and I want to be alone."
"Ok." Kai noticed he had a bit of trouble getting up and fell to his knees when he got to his feet. Saphire couldn't help but laugh her head off. "If you're having that much trouble then I guess you can stay the night again. You want a word of advice? Drink some water before you sleep. That way you won't get a hangover, that or it'll be minimal." Saphire got two glasses of water and Kai thought it to be very refreshing as it hit his mouth. He clambered back on to the couch and she flung a pillow and a blanket at him. "HEY!"
"I can do a lot worse. Now shut up and go to sleep." In the state she was in Kai did as she asked.
