Drabble #47: The Cup Song
Patricia
I was lying comfortably next to Eddie on the couch, his arm around my shoulders, and us sharing a set of earbuds; which just happened to be blasting Sick Puppies.
I closed my eyes and carefully listened to the music, the lyrics ringing in my thoughts. I then heard shuffling of feet, and opened my eyes to spot Joy, Mara, and Willow entering the dining room. Each of them had a red plastic cup in their hands, and when they reached the table, they sat it down in front of them. They then began to tap on it and clap and- "What the hell are you doing?!" I shouted, causing them and Eddie to jump.
"We're doing The Cup Song!" Willow says proudly, playing with her locks.
"The what song?" I ask confused. Eddie chuckles from behind me.
"You've never heard of it? Even I've heard of it. Aren't like all girls supposed to know how to do it?" He asks, earning a glare from me. He holds his hands up in defense.
"I tried to teach you once, remember Trish?" Joy counters.
"Believe me, I remember..." I mutter, remembering the time when she spent about two hours trying to teach me.
"Well come on! Let's give another go at it!" Mara encourages. I shake my head rapidly as Eddie watches in amusement.
"No, really I'm fi-"
"Come on Patricia!" Willow begs.
"No." I state clearly. Next thing I know, Eddie is picking me up bridal style, and carrying me over to where the three of them were sitting. "Eddie!" I shriek. "Put me down!"
"Sorry Yacker." He says, laughing a bit. I scowl as he sets me down.
"Never, ever do that again, got it?" I snap.
"Now! Lets start!" Willow squeals. I sit down, as Joy attempts to teach me.
"Okay first clap twice." She instructs. I do as she says. "Now tap the cup three times." I take a finger, and tap it. Mara bursts out laughing. "No! Okay, hit it -carefully- with both hands." Sending her an eye roll, I listen to her instructions.
"Good!" Willow smiles. I groan.
"Now, here comes the tricky part." Mara says. I look at her horrified. She then shows me some weird pattern, so in my attempt to do that, I toss the cup between my hands, and am officially frustrated.
"You know what? I'm done." I say, standing up.
"No!"
"Patricia!" Everyone yells. Joy then shows me once more, and I try again, but I get mad and end up crushing the plastic cup beneath my fist. This action causes Willow to pout, Mara to smirk, and Joy to shake her head in shame.
"Alright look, I can't do the cup song, and never will be able to. Why? Because honestly, it's stupid and if you want to go and hang out with someone that can, I'm not your person." I say, getting up and exiting the room. Eddie quickly follows, and grabs me, pulling my lips to his. Short but sweet. "What was that for?" I ask curiously.
"If I wanted to date someone who could do the cup song, I'd date some stuck beach blonde bimbo." He laughs, causing my to smile.
"Or one of them back there." I counter.
"Believe me, that won't be happening." He answers, pecking my cheek and bringing me close.
