Chapter Three: A Night Of Hook-Ups.
Tommy made it to Kimi's and knocked on the door waiting for someone to open it. Kimi pulled it open and gave him a smile "It took you long enough"
Tommy shrugged and laughed walking past her and into the living room "I had to take a phone call." He sat on the couch next to Lil and looked around the room "You know, this is the first time the gang has been together."
"It's just depressing that it took a death to bring us back together" Chuckie said.
Lil looked down at the floor, not wanting to say anything. Phil was sitting in a chair and saw how upset she looked. Kimi looked at the two before she started walking towards the kitchen "Anyone want something to drink?"
"I do!" Phil and Lil said in unison.
"Me too" Tommy said.
"I'm good, Kim. I still don't drink." Chuckie said with a smile.
"Oh come on, Chuck! You're 24, drink some." Kimi said walking back into the living room and handed Phil, Lil and Tommy their drinks.
Chuckie shook his head and just watched as Phil and Lil started drinking their feelings. Hours went by, and the two were drunk. Phil had his arm slung over Kimi's shoulder, and he had a drink in his other hand "Kim, I've always wanted to tell you this" his words were slurred.
"Phil, you're drunk. Whatever you say now, you could regret in the morning." she said moving his arm and tried reaching for his drink.
Phil pulled it away and put his face right in front of hers "I wouldn't regret this. I've been in love with you since high school"
Kimi rolled her eyes and pushed Phil towards the stairs "It's time to get you to bed, Phil."
********
Tommy was standing in the kitchen with a very drunk Lil. She was sitting on the counter, drink in hand. Tommy was standing in front of her listening to what she was ranting about "Sean's not even a good boyfriend. I mean he was at first, but he's not anymore. You know what I mean?"
Tommy smiled at her and let out a laugh. Her words were slurring. When Lil got drunk, she would tell the truth about anything. "I do know what you mean, Lil."
"Is Alicia a good girlfriend to you? Wait, I mean fiancé. Is she a good fiancé? If she's not, I'll hurt her for you, T. You know I would"
"I know you would." he smiled at her "But she's a good fiancé, Lil. Don't worry."
"She's lucky, T." Lil said leaning forward, putting her face inches away from his and putting a hand on Tommy's shoulder "Do you want to help me with something?"
"What is it?" he asked, not moving away.
"Will you help me up the stairs?"
Tommy laughed and stepped back, helping her off the counter and up the stairs.
********
Kimi opened her bedroom door and Phil followed her inside "Am I sleeping in your bed, Kim?"
She turned around, taking his drink from him and setting it on her dresser "Yes Phillip, you are. Now get into bed"
Phil sighed and fell onto the bed turning over to face Kimi "Will you join me?"
"No, I'm sleeping in the living room. You and Lil are in here."
Phil pouted and reached up, grabbing Kimi's arm and pulling her down onto the bed and wrapped his arms around her "Stay please"
Kimi sighed, liking the feeling of being in Phil's arms "Fine. Just let me go"
Phil smiled and let her go turning on his side to face her. It had been too long since he had seen her, and he missed her. He reached one of his hands out and brushed the hair out of her face "You're beautiful, Kim"
"And you're drunk."
"But I mean it. You could ask me again tomorrow if I meant this and I would say yes." He moved closer to her until his lips were just inches away from hers.
Kimi took a deep breath before moving away "We can't. Not while you're drunk. Go to sleep" she got out of the bed and turned to Phil when she reached the door "I'll be back later"
********
Lil walked into the guest bedroom and pulled Tommy in with her. She walked towards the bed and sat on the edge, patting the spot next to her so Tommy would sit. She looked over at him and smiled before she started giggling "You're so nice, Tommy."
"And you're so drunk, Lil." he smiled at her.
"What would you do if I tried to kiss you right now?"
"I'd tell you that you're drunk."
She leaned in closer to him, their lips just inches apart "Would you kiss me back?" she asked, her gaze dropping to his lips.
"I...I don't know. Maybe" he said looking at hers.
All thoughts of Alicia were out of his head. All that mattered to him was Lil and being able to finally kiss her. The thought that she was drunk was pushed to the back of his head. He leaned in closer pressing his lips to her. She adjusted herself so she was straddling him, and pushed him back so he was laying down. He had his hands running up and down her back. He pulled back and looked at her "Your drunk."
She kissed him again, more passionate this time "I don't care." Tommy didn't stop this time.
********
Kimi was the first to wake up the next morning, finding Chuckie gone, and someone knocking on the door. She walked out of her bedroom and walked down the stairs, pulling open the door to see a girl she didn't recognize.
"Hi! I'm Alicia, Tommy's fiancé, and Dil gave me this address saying he was here?" Alicia smiled at Kimi.
Kimi returned it and stepped aside "Yeah, he's here. He's still asleep. I'm Kimi, by the way. It's nice to finally meet you. I'll go get him." Kimi walked away from Alicia leaving her in the living room. She walked to the guest room and slammed the door closed "You're fucking kidding me. It's like high school all over again."
Lil took a pillow and covered her face "Can you be a little quieter please, Kim?"
Tommy sat up and looked over at Kimi "What's going on?"
Kimi walked around the room and threw Tommy's clothes at him while she was talking "Your fiancé is standing in my living room waiting for you"
"Alicia's here?" he asked getting out of the bed and put his pants on before leaving the room.
Kimi looked over at Lil and pulled the pillow away "Are you crazy, Lil?! He's engaged!"
"I was drunk! It just happened! And what did you mean its high school all over again?"
"I can't tell you how many times I caught you and Tommy together in high school."
Lil grabbed the pillow back and laid back down putting the pillow back over her face.
