Four Hours Later
"In olden days a glimpse of stocking. Was looked on as something shocking. But now, God knows! Anything goes!" I sing drunkenly into the mic.
"Good authors too who once knew better words. Now only use four letter words
writing prose! Anything goes!" Matt sings the next verse.
"The world has gone mad today and good's bad today. And black's white today,
And day's night today!" I take up half of the next verse.
"When most guys today, that women prize today. Are just silly gigolos. And though I'm not a great romancer, I know that you're bound to answer. When I propose, anything goes!" Me and Matt sing together.
The room claps along with the song, most singing along out of tune due to the alcohol.
"When mothers pack and leave poor father, because they decide they'd rather be tennis pros. Anything goes!"
"When grandmamma whose age is eighty in night clubs is getting matey with gigolos.
Anything goes!"
We sing the verse together until the next verse, were Matt lets me take over.
"If driving fast cars you like, if low bars you like, if old hymns you like, if bare limbs you like, if Mae West you like …"
I know which part is next as this is my favourite song, I look at Matt who is grinning and continuing with the verse.
"Or me undressed you like, why, nobody will oppose!"
I blush a bright shade of red.
"And every night, the set that's smart is indulging in nudist parties in studios.
Anything goes!" I come back in to join Matt.
"So though I'm not a great romancer I know that you're bound to answer when I propose.
Anything goes, anything goes, anything goes. ANYTHING GOES!" Me and Matt conclude the song with a big finale.
"So this is you drunk then?"
"Yep." I hiccup.
"Ha."
"What about you? You must be drunk too."
"A little."
"Liar."
"Mmm."
I giggle to myself, smiling sweetly at Matt.
Matt slumps down on the couch next to me and throws his arm around my shoulders.
"So, Matt, how many times have you been drunk?"
"A lot more than I care to admit."
"Good, at least you're drunk now. But no taking advantage."
"Like I would." Matt replies seriously, pulling me close.
"Good lad." I giggle, snuggling closer to Matt.
"You two are so cute." Amy informs us.
"Thanks." Matt replies, kissing my forehead.
I reply with a sigh of contentment.
"I think we should go." Matt tells me.
"Yep."
"Come on then, let's get you up."
"Yep."
"Bye, guys." Matt waves at the room full of people.
"Yeah, bye." I add, still cuddling into Matt's side.
"Bye, you two." Amy replies, the only one starting to sober up.

"Maggie, where's your keys?"
"In my bag." I reply, as Matt sits me down on the steps to rummage through my bag.
"Got em. Come on, stand up."
"Okay." I reply, swaying slightly.
"That's it, good girl."
"Where are you going to sleep?"
"On the couch."
"You don't have to."
"I always try to be a gentleman."
"Well, you have been. Why sleep on the couch?"
"Let's just get you up to your room, okay."
"Okay."
Matt sits me down on the bed and I feel myself sway slightly.
You're too sweet, Matt. If only you knew that I really like you. I'll have to wait til morning to tell you though.
"You okay?"
"Apart from being slightly tipsy, am good, yeah."
"Good."
"Now, lie down. Try and get some sleep, okay."
"Yes, boss. As long as you sleep here with me."
"You won't give up, will you?"
"No." I smile at him.
"Fine then."
I throw the cover over myself and watch as Matt lies down next to me on top of the covers.
I don't know what I'm thinking but I lean in and kiss him.
He seems shocked at first but responds quickly and wraps an arm round me.
"Stop being such an idiot and just get under the covers, it gets cold in here, you know."
"I'm technically dead, what's it matter?"
"Just do it."
"Yes, maam."
"Good lad."
He throws his jacket on the chair and pulls off his tie and shoes.
He's quite warm as he snuggles under the covers and I can't help but curl into him.
He sighs contently and pulls me closer.
I think I'm finally starting to sober up.
"It's odd, you know, I feel attracted to you and I really like you. It's not just cause I'm drunk, you know."
"I know. And I feel the same. I really do."
"Good, that's a start."
"Yep. Anyway, time to sleep."
"Okay, will you still be here in the morning?"
"Wouldn't want to be anywhere else."
"Okay, night."
I lean in to kiss him again and he kisses me back softly, wondering if he could learn to love me.
"Night. Sleep tight."
Okay, last part of the chapter done. That's the latest chapter done and a new story to tide you over while I am stuck doing assignments. I have a refer and four tasks for three different modules. So, no more stories for a while. Sorry, enjoy xxxx
