"So we have how many drinks?" I queried as Andy began pulling out the boxes and placing them on the bench,
"Enough," I rolled my eyes and he gave me a cheeky smile, "There's five of us, we will have enough Shaun, breathe, it's your party; relax okay?" I nodded and sighed as the doorbell rang; Bradie ran down the stairs faster than humanly possible, "Guess that means Cindy's here," the two of us chuckled as they walked over to us,
"You two already have drinks out?" she asked taking a hold of one and cracking it open, "I'm not complaining," she looked nice, for a girl, if I was straight I might have considered her; she had black skinny leg jeans, a black tight crop top topped with cropped floral shirt, judging by all that obviously her stomach was showing, Bradie seemed rather pleased with himself, the goofy grin being the cherry on top.
"Well, we might go get changed yes Andrew?" I smirked at him and he nodded, Bradie had already changed into a Spiderman shirt and black jeans. Andy pulled out his Himynameis singlet and black ripped jeans; I slipped on my Astroboy shirt, I already had on the jeans I wanted. There was another ringing of the doorbell; I was momentarily confused and then realised I'd invited Beau, Andy looked over at me laughing,
"You forgot Beau was coming didn't you?" I nodded and smiled,
"I'm out of it okay? I always am, it's my natural state." The both of us headed back down the stairs and Bradie had already let Beau inside, he donned one or two wristbands on his right wrist and smiled upon my notice of them, "You can take them off, we won't judge you, but it's up to you," he shrugged awkwardly and slowly slid the thickest one off, a black on with Simple Plan written on it; he slid it into the pocket of his grey skinny leg jeans, pulling the edge of his maroon 'Darling I Got a Dark Side' singlet down to hook over it.
"Thanks for understanding and inviting me Shaun," I shrugged and Andrew handed him a drink,
"It's fine Beau, seriously," Andy dialled Dominoes and got them to deliver three or four pizzas which would arrive around about eight o'clock.
I'd already downed two or three drinks, Andy around the same, we were all about the same except for Cindy; being a girl and all. She didn't take that too lightly when I told her that, 'Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't keep up with the boys drinking habits'. Bradie didn't hold anything nearly as well as the rest of us, including Cindy; she was doing better than him. "Oi, Andy, where the fuck is the pizza?"
"It's only seven forty-five Shaun!" Our voices were louder than they normally were but it was only the five of us at home so it didn't matter.
"Should still be here,"
"Be patient you fuck," my gaze snapped over to Cindy who was perched on Bradie's lap looking rather comfortable, she began twirling some of Bradie's longer hair around her finger and you could tell she didn't hold her liquor as well as she made out,
"You're such a girl deep down, look at you, you're tipsy," she scowled at me in response and Beau started laughing, he'd barely made any noise so far tonight; probably feels out of place,
"Come on Cindy, you know it's true, right Shaun?" he looked over at me and I nodded comically, Andy laughing so hard over my actions,
"OH MY GOD, I should get the glow sticks," I turned to look at Andrew and nodded,
"Do it, do we have enough?" He got up and shrugged,
"Come help me get them," I followed him down the hallway and came to a set of stairs,
"Since when did you have stairs here and a basement?"
"Since like, forever, have I never brought you down here?" I shook my head as he turned the lock; the click radiating in the air around us, "There's a light switch somewhere, or a lighter, I don't know; I've only ever come down here drunk," I chuckled and spotted a lighter on the table near the door,
"It's here," I alerted him and flicked the lid igniting the flame, "You come here often then, you drunken hobo," he short me a dirty glare made visible by the small orange flame, "Why is there a lighter anyway," he pointed over towards an old looking lantern thing,
"To light that, we barely use down here, it's mainly storage but I like to think of it as my own little hideaway," I nodded and bent the flame down to the wick of the candle,
"Well it suddenly got brighter in here," he nodded and began rummaging through boxes,
"Reckon Bradie and Cindy will do it tonight?" I heard him question, his head deep in a box,
"Most likely, Bradie can't hold a drink for shit, he's only had like, one and half, she's had about two; if they get drunk enough we can kind of make them." He began laughing and stood up straight, two tubes filled with glow sticks in his hand,
"What about us?" I rolled my eyes,
"Make out, maybe, fuck, hell no. We're not doing that yet Andrew, only when I'm ready,"
"You dream about me though," he smirked and started walking back to the door,
"Wait, what!" he chuckled as I ran up to meet him, blowing out the candle on the way,
"I've heard you murmur my name once or twice in your sleep, I asked Bradie if you'd done it before and he said he barely remembered but you'd wake up with your hand down your pants," I snickered,
"Lies and slander Clemmensen, I would never do that," he winked at me and took my hand in his free one,
"That's what they all say," I felt my cheeks burn a little and looked down at my shoes for the rest of the walk back to the main room,
"You're disgusting," I whispered taking one of the tubes off him and jumping onto my original spot on the one seater lounge, Andy sitting on my lap, "Really, like what are you? A cat?"
"BRADIE'S THE CAT, NOT ANDY!" Cindy shouted, both her and Bradie squished into the same spot, Beau comfortably with his feet up on the three person lounge
"Whatever, who wants glow sticks?" Andy enquired throwing a whole bunch over to the three of them, I leant up gently kissing his neck, "I thought you said no sex," I sighed and kissed him again,
"I said no sex, I didn't say no making out,"
"Faggot," I looked over to Beau raising an eyebrow, "I'm kidding, I'm not Leon or Geoff, I don't hate you for being gay dumbass, I accept it; just don't start making out in front of us, three out of the five here are straight," I smirked and turned Andy's face to mine placing my lips on his, I heard him sigh and his tongue run along my bottom lip, I allowed him entrance and he spun around so he was straddling me properly; our tongues engaged in battle, both our eyes shut tight. I felt glow sticks being throw my way and we broke apart laughing,
"Get a room," Bradie spoke up, Cindy hugging into his side like Andy was on me before,
"We do, everyone is in it, or would you rather us have your room little brother?" Andy was still facing me as he spoke, his hands firmly on my hips to hold himself up,
"Stop poking me," he smiled and rocked back and forth a little,
"You're poking me too dick," I lifted my leg up making him topple over to the side,
"And that's what you get for making false claims that I have a boner," I started cracking glow sticks and putting them up my arms, Cindy had a few already as did Bradie, Beau made some into a head dress and worse it like a crown, a round part up the top and chains running down one each side, it was fun, the most fun I'd had in a while, other than with just Andrew of course; but it was nice, really nice.
