Chapter 3 - Completely Drunk

The next few hours were great fun. Not wanting to wear the lifejackets that paranoid Laila had brought along, we strapped them to the rucksacks. Then, if something did happen, as least the rum would be saved. We made up Bex, and Laila gave us really freaky contact lenses she had bought.

Bex: Right Keeks. Now your turn.

::God help me.::

Laila: I think, she needs to look more like Captain Jack Sparrow.

So, with much complaint from me, they braided my hair, using beads from Bex' bracelet, and used super-waterproof make-up (Yes, I know there's no such thing, but Johnny Depp's make-up is always perfect, even when he's just been swimming.).

"Perfect!" They said in unison.

::I suddenly feel very stupid.::

I used a knife as a mirror. I must admit, they did pretty well; I looked like the female equivalent of Jack Sparrow – sorry, Captain Jack Sparrow.

Laila: Quick! 10, 9, 8....

Bex and I each grabbed a bottle of Laila's homemade Vodka and opened it. I drank first.

Keikæ: Wow, That's good.

Laila: 7, 6, 5....

Laila momentarily paused in her countdown to take a swig.

Laila: cough Wow, her voice croaky that's good.

::If that's what it did to Laila, what would it do to Bex? She's never had alcohol before.::

I'd soon find out. By now Laila's countdown sounded a bit weird, from the alcohol, probably. We didn't really need it anyway. You could easily hear the hundreds of people out of sight on the opposite side of the lake.

Laila: 4, 3, 2....

::Now for the moment of truth.::

Bex tried it. By the time she had stopped gawping, she was coughing all over the place and her voice was squeaky.

Bex: cough, cough Wow, That's good.

Laila: 1, 0! My home-brewed vodka is officially a success! Welcome to the New Year!
