Chapter 8
Mia pov
The rock hit the bottle and it fell to the forest floor with a soft clatter. "Nice shot, Mia." Jovanna says as she pass the beer bottle to Rose who seemed bored.
"you guys are so horrible at this I seriously don't know what to do," Rebecca says as she takes a swing out of the bottle. She then starts coughing. "Gods help me get better beer next time. Than I might actually suck at this." she says as she knocks two down at a time.
"score!" Rose called from her drunken haze.
"can I have some beer?" Emily asks in her dazed voice. "if she gets some I do too." says the tiny creature known as the oracle.
"no and Hell no!" Jovanna answered. "the last time you had beer you 'plagued' the creek for almost a year-you want some Willow?"
"no thanks I really don't drink," Willow answers.
"Whatever," I say as I set the bottles back up and the new empty one and took the tiniest rocks and cocked the Slingshot. "bet you I hit all of them."
"you're on!" Rose answers slurring her words. Only a drunk Rose would take up that offer. "if you do I'll do anything but sleep with you or anything down there."
"and if you win?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.
"Community service," she answers swiftly, "does anyone have more beer?"
"sorry boo-I'm out." Jovanna says.
"I got a flask we can get into after I make this shot," I answer. I let go and sure enough all five bottles go down. "now you get to do anything I want."
"you suck-where's the flask?' Rose asks. I laughed.
"that's what I want-I want you to be sober for a whole year-you can drink on your birthday that's when it ends." I say as I grab the flask from the inside of my leather coat. a gift from my godmother(the closest you could get) Thalia and the flask, the other birthday present.
"Bs that shit, Arty." she says as I wave it in front of her face.
"wrong answer," I then toss it to Emily. "drink it up and make sure it's just you."
Emily then downed it. When she was done she started make faces. "what is this shit?"
"pure vodka," I say.
"I hate it!" she says as she throws the flask.
"good you learned your lesson."
"and that was?"
"don't drink another's flask-even if begged." She flipped me off. "and you learned your other lesson: swearing and gestures are always a way to show how you feel-though I can't find one for drunk-bitch-get-off-my-leg!" I say as I glare at Rose who clung to my leg like a life saver.
"try kicking her," Jovanna suggests. I kick her and she becomes a rose bush that is connected to my leg.
"any other ideas?" I ask them.
"tickle her," Rebecca says. I just look a t her funny. "what?"
"where are you?" I asked.
"right here," she answer hesitantly.
"no I mean in you're mind-you've been distant since you saw Jason," I say.
"Chuck did it!" Emily sat up and had a glazed look then she fell back and went to sleep.
"what's wrong with her?" I asked.
"Vodka works differently on her," Jovanna answers.
"Don't hurt Lucy!" she did the same only saying that.
"can you shut her up?" I asked.
"not really," Jovanna answered as Emily's hands attacked her face. "boo!" Jovanna straddled her to stop her from ripping her eyes out and Emily was breathing heavy.
"creepy and it's nothing." just then Rose turned back to human and her and Emily started screaming. I kneeled down and covered her mouth. I took out a small little vial and poured a little in her mouth then after she went to sleep poured some in Emily's mouth.
Soon they were asleep. "what the hell did you give her?" Jovanna asked looking scared at her boo. "I've never seen her so at peace."
"just some sleeping stuff with a little Nyquil-Thalia showed me," I answered.
