Random, random, and more random. It's based on something a friend said when we were out drinking for his birthday.

Genre: Humor/Romance(if you squint)

Characters: Mello, Matt


God damnit, what was taking Matt so long?

I had ordered him to buy me other drink and he had obeyed, stumbling off through the crowd towards the bar.

However, it had been almost ten minutes, he shouldn't have been taking that long.

Just as I was about the get up to go find him, I caught a glimpse of red hair in the crowd coming this way.

"Here's your drink," Matt slurred, drink sloshing as he set it on the table roughly. He wobbled a bit while moving to sit down, but managed to seat himself without falling on the floor.

"What took you so long?" I demanded, noticing how Matt was more than a little drunk by now.

He smirked lazily. "Shots."

"Shots?" I questioned, my eyes narrowing at the thought of someone trying to get Matt more drunk than he had been when he'd left the table.

"Yeah," he mumbled. "There was some nice guy at the bar. He bought me not one, not two; but two shots." He emphasized by counting on his fingers and I almost laughed at the confusion on his face when his fingers didn't match up with his words.

"I think you've had enough to drink," I said, moving his half-full glass out of his reach.

He pouted his lips. "But Meeeellllloooooo!"

"No means no. Besides," I chuckled, holding up three fingers and waggling them. "You've already had two too many."


I don't know if you found it funny, but at the time, that line made everyone laugh, and my friend is still being ridiculed for saying it even though it's been a month. :P

If you didn't find it funny then, I guess it was just one of those 'you had to be there' moments.
