Allison awoke several hours later, with Eleanor closely watching her. In all honesty, Allison had never felt better. She felt as if she'd just woken up from the best nap of her life. She felt different, too, but a good different. Slowly, she opened her eyes and sat up in bed to see her best friend sitting on a chair beside her.

"Welcome back to the land of the living; how'd you feel?" Eleanor asked, bringing a piece of her best friend's hair behind her ear.

"I've never felt more alive," Allison admitted, her eyes darting around the room like a small child. Everything was so out of focus for her, it was like looking into a room when the windows have been fogged up.

"Dollar for every time I've heard that before," Eleanor muttered under her breath as she moved onto the bed to get a better look at her best friend. Her pale skin returned to her human tanned skin, her eyes had turned dark brown and Eleanor could hear her heart beating inside her chest.

Holy fucking shit.

It had worked, the crazy magic bullshit had worked and now Allison was fully human.

Eleanor slowly slid off the bed and quietly made her way towards Alec's room, knocking on his door before she walked in. Alec was on his bed, reading what appeared to be Eleanor's diary, which caused her to climb onto the bed and remove it from his grasp. "I was wondering where that went. I know we're 'bound for life' or some shit like that but I'd appreciate you not reading my diary and I'm surprised you knew where it was, even Allie doesn't know where it is."

Alec shrugged his shoulders, pressing a gentle kiss to the side of Eleanor's head. "It was pretty easy, if you think about it. You did keep it in a bible that had the pages cut out to keep it in; I don't have to be a teenage girl to figure that one out."

Eleanor gave Alec a middle finger as she placed her diary into the back of her jeans. "Before we get too carried away with this conversation and I completely forget why I'm here; Allie has woken up and she's human, Alec. She's completely one hundred percent human, but you have to promise me you'll protect her. I don't care how much it takes; you will protect her with your life."

Alec was silent for a moment as he took one of Eleanor's hands and pressed a gentle kiss into it before nodding his head. "Alright, I'll look after her. I promise no harm will come to her, I'll make sure of it."

Eleanor smiled, pressing a gentle kiss to Alec's lips. "Thank you," she whispered before crawling off his bed and towards the door. "We can continue this discussion after Allie has gone to bed." She gave Alec a wink as she closed the door and walked back into her shared room with Allison. "So, what do you wanna do?"

~#~

"When you said 'go out for drinks', somehow I didn't picture us going to Supernova which I'm pretty sure has been the scene for at least six rapes," Eleanor frowned as she looked at the packed club in front of them, the red lighting illuminating the club in a way that felt like being inside a shit house of horrors rather than a nightclub.

Allison gave her best friend a frown as she led her through the crowd towards the bar. "I like surprising you, it's hilarious," she smiled before turning towards the bartender. "Give me the strongest thing you have, please."

Eleanor didn't say anything as she watched Allison order the drink that would probably be the death of her, but for once, Eleanor wasn't worried for her best friend's wellbeing. They came to party, and that's what they planned to do. Although, their roles had been slightly reversed once Allison had come out in a long sleeved green dress with gold heels to match while Eleanor was in a rhinestone crop top with black shorts and black platform sandals to match; usually, Eleanor would wear the dress and Allison would wear the shorts and crop top.

Before too long, Allison's drink arrived and Eleanor took one sip and a whiff of the drink before she moved it away from her, a look of disgust on her face. "That smells and tastes like shit."

Allison laughed before taking the drink from her best friend's hand and downing it in a second, placing the empty shot glass back on the bar. "Ah, the sweet taste of alcohol; oh, how I've missed you." Allison ordered another three rounds before declaring she needed to dance away the alcohol and dragged Eleanor with her to the dancefloor.

The pair laughed as they danced together, completely losing themselves in the craziness of the club. The drinks kept coming for Allison over the next several hours, clouding her vision but she thankfully had Eleanor firmly tell her that it was time to go home. Eleanor practically carried a giggling Allison out of the club, the only lights guiding her were the signs for Supernova and the moon.

Back in their room, Allison ran straight to the bathroom, slamming the door behind her. Eleanor kicked off her heels and slowly walked towards the bathroom and opened the door to help her best friend, closing it behind her.

Allison groaned; her head resting against the side of the toilet as Eleanor gently rubbed circles on her back. "I'm never drinking again."

"You say this every single time you drink but you keep doing it, and I hate to say I told you so but I told you so," Eleanor laughed a little as she held her best friend's hair out of her face before grabbing a hair tie from around her wrist and tied Allison's hair into a loose ponytail.

Allison would've laughed too if she didn't have her head in the toilet and didn't feel like she'd been run over by a truck carrying a herd elephants.


Author's Note: So Allie is finally human and got her wish – time to partay hard.

In the original version of this chapter there probably was a longer author's note but since my stupid ass accidentally replaced this chapter with the next by mistake while I was updating it, we'll have to settle for this. But thank you to loveprass for telling me!

Until next time;

Lorna.
